Debbie McMinamen Intro to Biology Dr, Hintzsche 04/18/2018 Psoriasis and Biology You know how they say that big things come in small packages? That is how I think of Biology, the smallest thing like a cell can do some impressive things. Biology being the study of life gives us an endless reality of changing and learning the ways of life. Taking the smallest thing like a cell has the power to change everything. The cell’s power can be used for good or for bad. Cells have the capabilities to…

I plan to pursue my love of Biology by attaining a degree in Biochemistry and Cell Biology. I hope to further my knowledge in the clusters The Amazing Red Blood Cell, and Living Oceans in Climate Change at UCSD. While the former appeals to my determination to discover innovative ways to remedy human ailments, the latter appeals to my desire to address the pressing issue of climate change. My interest in biology began in freshman year. We learned about the different parts to the cell, and I was…

Antonino English III 23 March 2017 Marine Biology Marine biology is a field in science that looks solely at the life of marine animals and plants. What is a marine biologist? A marine biologist is the study of oceans and the marine animals in the oceans that lve in our waters. They look at the organism behavior and interactions with the environment. The first research done on marine animals were by Aristotle 322bc. Although there has been marine biology before this time and plenty of…

I enjoy all of my A-level subjects, and I want to continue with as many as possible, so I am applying for Natural Sciences. I am eager to study in more depth the areas that I have found interesting, as well as to explore new topics. For me, Human Biology currently stands out as the most exciting field, as I can see at first hand its applications and effects, and constant developments mean there is always something new to learn. It is this dynamic side of science which I want to be involved in.…

Up to the elementary school, my cumulative treasure of science was pertaining mostly theories but hands-on practical started during my Honor Biology labs. The smell of formaldehyde didn't hold me back, to dissect a preserved frog to learn about frog's internal organs. As the human and frog have similarity in their organs' layout. I nailed arms and legs wide open and my scalpel made an incision along the midline of a frog's body from pectoral gland to the pelvis. The entire cavity, filled with…

Taking Honors Biology in freshman year sparked a passion for biomedical sciences which has stuck with me over the past four years. This was enhanced by a Human Anatomy and Physiology course I took in 11th grade, where we learned about the how various human systems function. After taking this class, I decided to major in molecular biology, as I had only scratched the surface of the workings and biochemical interactions of cells, and was eager to continue learning. However, after a great work…

The field of science fascinated me even throughout high school. In my Sophomore biology class we worked on a project involving microorganisms from a local pond and from that point forth I knew that this was my dream job. I asked my Biology teacher, Mr Goudy, if he knew how the job market looked for a microbiologist and when he said that it was a growing field, it only made my passion for the study intensify. He also informed me of the growing need due to bacteria developing resistances to the…

When I was a little girl, I use to tell people I was going to be a princess. I had it all planned out, I was going to marry a prince and live in this huge castle. We would have two kids and a lot of animals. My imagination was basically a Cinderella Story. I have three goals in my head that can and will be accomplished. One goal I would love to accomplish is being a marine biologist. I love the ocean and animals, so I thought combining them would be a good idea. Basically being a marine…

Using Integrating Concepts in Biology (ICB)”, an introductory resource for this year’s electronic textbook, and answer the following discussion questions. Responses should be uploaded to Canvas by 11:59PM on 9/20/15. A PDF version of this guide is posted to Canvas, and can also be found in the e-text. 1. The ICB text is organized around five “big ideas” in biology. List them, then define the term that is bolded in the text of each one. The five big ideas in biology are 1: living systems…

Marine biology has always been a dream job of mine. I went to the Pittsburgh Zoo when I was eight years old, and I saw the crawl through aquarium and I was amazed. Ever since then I have always wanted to be surrounded by sea animals and help them in any way possible. While I was at the zoo there was this girl, who I can now tell was a marine biologist, who gave a bunch of facts about the stingrays that we were allowed to pet. She would just ramble off from the top of her head about all the…
