Introduction Alleles are different forms of genes that governor a single genetic trait (Tortora & Derrickson, 2009, p. 1118). Genes, a section of a DNA molecule, are heritable traits that are produced by the DNA of an individual (Tortora & Derrickson, 2009, p. 53). Individuals in a population can be born with multiple different genes or characteristics (Freeman et al., 2014, p. 5). The characteristics that change throughout a population over time are known as evolution (Freeman et al., 2014, p.…

Max Clara was a German anatomist and was well known because of controversial work and his close ties to the Nazi Party. Research by Winkelmann and Noack (2010), explained that in 1937, Clara discovered a new cell type in the terminal bronchiole, which he characterized morphologically as having secretory granules and a dome-shaped apical surface without cilia. These newly discovered cells were named Clara cells. Clara’s research was founded on his use of tissue dissected exclusively from…

stars touching the dark infinity. The large compound was blanketed by the darkness, it’s black and grey walls providing a camouflage in the nighttime. Hiding in the darkness, just outside the compound’s entry gates, was a short girl, in her early 20’s. A black outfit covered her from head to toe - not something she’d usually find herself wearing, but it was a much better camouflage in the black of night. Gracie had had this day planned for a long time. Months of planning, months of scoping out…

Throughout the war, the conditions in the trenches contributed heavily to the negative nature of trench warfare. Source 3.2 outlines just one of these aspects of the conditions in the trenches, mud. Written by Sergeant P Boyd of the allied forces, the source expresses how the mud consumed the soldiers in every aspect of their life, and that it was inescapable. The primary source quotes “I have known those who can face enemy barrage without flinching, who still shiver at the memory of their…

tiredness, but when you get closer you recognize that one spectacular tree is nothing extra than a cell smartphone tower with some rudimentary camouflage, supposed to mix it into its surroundings, but surely sticking out greater for their poor try at blending in. you notice the same scene in too many various places around that country, by using that camouflage; cell phone companies successfully deceived millions and millions of people.…

NATURAL SELECTION SIMULATION (“STICK-BIRD”) INTRODUCTION Within a hypothetical population of “worms” (toothpick) that inhabit a predominantly green-coloured environment (green grass), there are four colour of variations; red, blue, cream and green. The worms are food for a predator known as a “stick-bird” (students). This experiment is designed to let students observe the effects of the theory of evolution by natural selection. Natural selection is an explaination of how evolution could have…

The Hunt I am all warm in my camo attire with my bow hugging the tree behind me. I watch as sky comes to life and leaves crunch as the dew falls on them. My father sitting at my right side, dozing, his head bobbing every once in awhile. I hear the faint noise of something crunching and look above me to see a squirrel perched on a small branch. I smile and nod my head letting out a faint chuckle. I take a look at my beautiful surroundings for any movement that would catch the arrow of my bow. I…

Rather than stalking its prey, Komodo Dragons rely on camouflage as they patiently lie in wait, covered by tall grass. When the perfect opportunity at any passing prey arises, the dragon springs, using its powerful legs, sharp claws and serrated, shark-like teeth to eviscerate its prey. Once finished, virtually nothing is left because they devour everything. If the prey is large, the lizard tackles its legs first to nock it down, as their long claws dig into the body, then quickly rips into…
