Angie Porter 038; Katrina Sa Organ Cloning: The
future of our lives? On February 23, 1997 the

entirely different question. You can not argue the
fact that a major breakthrough in cloning
technology had been made. With a lot of time and
effort, scientists were able to successfully clone
a sheep. Since then, British scientists have also
cloned a frog embryo. Cloning has, and will
continue to be a controv...

Jennifer Mull Psychology Human speech makes
possible the expression and communication of
thoughts, needs, and emotions through vocalization
in the form of words. It is a process whose

for modulation and amplification of that sound and
an articulation proc...

Alvin A. Soriano February 14, 2000 A pleasant
morning Ladies and Gentlemen. I would like to
share my views on why cloning should be legalized
in the Philippines. We, the experts in the
Institute of Technological Technologies feel that
with the careful continuation of research, the
technological benefits of cloning clearly outweigh
the possible social consequences. We think that
final products of cloning, like farm animals, and
laboratory mice will not be the most important
achievement. The appli...

Tree Resin Body Process

The process of mummification, the form of
embalming practiced by the ancient Egyptians was a

all of the organs, except for the heart, were
removed. Egyptians believed the heart was the
center of intelligence and wisdom, and was left in

To look up into the mountains and see the steam
rolling from a mountain stream on a cold winters
