role on the impact of a person in their adulthood. The nature vs. nurture controversy to understand how our personalities and traits are produced by our genes and biological factors, and how these traits are shaped by our environment, including our parents, peers, and culture. What is nature vs. nurture? Nature versus nurture is biological and environmental beliefs or views on a situation or behavior. The natural characteristics of a person can either be similar or different to the unnatural…

If there is one disease that is deadly for both Animals and Humans it would be anthrax. It is an infectious disease of animals and humans. The causation of it is a bacterium called Bacillus anthracis that mostly affects cattle, hogs, sheep, horses, and goats (MedlinePlus, 2016). This disease can be fatal for these sort of animals, and it kills its host by producing a toxin that kills the cells causing fluid to build up in the body’s tissues (Mock, Michele, Fouet, & Agnes, 2001). Adding to its…

Nature versus Nurture has been one of the major controversies in all of time. Whether inherited genes or environmental influences can affect one’s personality, behavior, development intelligence, and ability. While nature is mainly characterized by physical attributes inherited from generation to generation, nurture is mainly in control of a person’s character and manner. Either Adam, the monster, could have been born with his savage ways or he could have acquired these ways from society. Nature…

Personal protective equipment (PPE) is equipment worn to protect a person from being exposed to infectious material, such as blood or other body fluids that contain pathogens. PPE consists of gloves, a cover gown, a surgical mask, and safety goggles. Gloves are used to cover the hands and are worn when there may be contact with blood or body fluids, or when the person has non-intact skin. Cover gowns are used to protect the uniform and body and are worn when splashing of any potentially…

backgrounds to study and understand systems that can be used to counteract chemical and biological weapons of mass destruction. It was incredible to see and work on various projects that allowed for counter-terrorism. One of the biggest projects I worked on was our "Spray Knockdown System" it is a massive, almost 20-foot-tall, decontamination structure. It was a system that could easily counteract the effects of a biological weapon on large objects by rapidly releasing a specialized…

Abstracts: This paper is to explain what a biological weapon is and how it affects environment, humans, and the economy. Along with explaining how the disease is spread from person to person, promoting illness. With a little bit of history on biological weapons, and my views on biological weapons. A biological weapon is also known as a germ weapon. This is when bacteria, viruses, fungi, or toxins can be used as a weapon against, animals, plants of humans. The use of infectious agents were used…

Synthesis Essay Genes are the blueprint of nature. Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is the biological language used to create genes, and those genes make up our characteristics like blond hair and brown eyes. Genes are special codes that is found in all forms of life, including cancer cells and other diseases. A recently new practice of patenting genes has become a controversial topic raising ethical, economical, and other issues. Authors and critics Michael Crichton of the New York Times, and…

scientific studies. These projects included; Rat Extermination (1921), War Gases as Insecticides (1922), Apparatus for Toxicological Experiments (1922), Extermination of Locusts (1923), Ex-termination of Field Rats (1923), co-operative project with the Biological Survey (1923), Marine Piling Investigation (1923), and Boll Weevil Investigations (1920-27). Funding for these projects was provided by Congress or some agency of the government since the Chemical Warfare Service could not provide…

There are many different types of mass destruction that have and can kill individuals. The four chemical agents include nerve, blood, choking, and blistering agents. The first type of well-known chemical agent is nerve agents. Nerve agents affects individual’s nervous system within the body and that is how it gets its name. Nerve agents were heavy used during the second World War (“Nerve Agents,”2017). According to “Nerve Agents” (2017), nerve agents are within the group of organo-phosphorus…

Career Consideration of Biological Engineer and Speech Pathologist Steve Jobs once said, “The only way to do great work is to love what you do.” Finding a lifelong career that is interesting, intellectually challenging, emotionally fulfilling, and well suited for a person is often a difficult decision for one to make. Choosing a career might take time, research, and experience, but eventually a person will find a career that suits them best. While a career of a biological engineer requires…
