To vaccinate your child or not Many people make simple choices every day, what tie to wear, which perfume to put on, ect. People with children have a lot of choices to make, because it affects another life. Like choosing whether or not to vaccinate your child. Vaccination is the method we have used for years, to prevent diseases. Vaccinations help us prevent epidemic outbreaks. The center of disease control recommends getting 28 doses of 10 shots from the time you are newborn until age 6.…
Vaccines are a double sided sword. The decision of vaccinating or not vaccinating could either save a child’s life or it could put the child in danger. Vaccines have actually been scientifically proven to save roughly 285 children’s lives every hour from preventable diseases. That comes out to be 2.5 million sons and daughters! The Center for Disease Control estimated that 732,000 American children were saved from death and 322 million of childhood illnesses were prevented for the past 22 years.…
For my anatomy class I was asked to write a paper of how a body system of my choice affects the other body systems. I chose the endocrine system, it is made up of many different glands, but every gland still does a part in making sure that organs in the other body systems are well balanced. I liked the endocrine system when we went over it in class and thought it would be an excellent choice. Especially since most of it has to do with the brain and I love to study the brain. I will cover all the…
Imagine yourself, eleven-years-old, lying in anguishing pain in a hospital bed. Doctors are surrounding you, offering medical assistance. But your parents deny you the right to be treated. “Medical assistance would infringe upon my right to practice my religion” they claim. You hear those around you and have some hope of survival left. However, you never get medical assistance. Instead your parents pray. And pray. And continue to pray. This, of course, does nothing. The doctors and specialists…
should handle situations. Finer suggested that they should strictly follow the guidelines of the legislature. While Friedrich stated that they should be able to make these important decisions, for what they believe the public need, based on the education and experiences that they accumulated (Morgan, 423). I noticed that the Friedrich approach should have taken place in the Columbia accident…
As far as an athletes perspective on supplementation it seems like a fast and efficient way to get bigger, stronger, and faster effectively. These supplements vary from simple over the counter products such as protein, amino acids, creatine, and even advanced supplements such as anabolic steroids. Some of these are incredible safe and effective while others may do more harm than good. I will be exploring the positive and negative benefits of creatine when taken as a supplement for an athlete (a…
Australia has a unique system of government which, while similar in some respects to the United States of America (USA), is quite different in important areas. In the follow paper I argue that while in certain areas the President of the USA carries greater powers than that of an Australian Prime Minister, in some important categories he or she does not. I argue that the separation of powers are a critical constitutional restriction on the President which does not similarly hamstring the Prime…
I have never been the strongest writer out of my peers, but I also have not been the weakest. I am weak in parts of my writing such as grammar, spelling and sentence construction. I am strong in other parts such as getting my ideas out there and getting written down. Reading was a way to get away from all the tragic events in my life; writing had helped me do the same. Though, I was not the best writer, it had taken me to a place that I could finally feel at peace. Usually, I am a closed off…
The CCR5-Δ32 Allele: A Natural Resistance to HIV Virus Human immunodeficiency virus, most commonly known as HIV, is an acquired virus that attacks the immune system of the host and eventually leads to acquired immunodeficiency syndrome otherwise known as AIDS. HIV is a relatively new disease in human populations, AIDS was first observed in homosexual males in 1981 (Herron et al., 2014, p. 2). Later, in 1983, soon after the discovery of AIDS, scientists identified HIV virus as being responsible…
Terrestrial and aquatic mammals, although from different taxa and completely different environments, communicate over long distance in similar ways, but of course have differences since they evolved from different ancestors. Specific to this paper, elephants and whales are discussed; the way their ears, external or internal, are structures and how each section of their ears function to aid in the process of hearing frequencies from conspecifics. Elephants not only use their large ears to…
