When we think of birds we usually tend to imagine them above our heads flying high in the sky. We tend to forget that some of them live in extremely cold environments and can actually swim deep underwater for sufficient amount of time. These strange birds are referred to as penguins. These birds tend to baffle us because of their similarities and different traits compared to their flying relatives. Exactly why and how did they began to develop differently from other birds? So what is the…
To become an adult in society we must go through many stages in psychological development. We first start off as infants and as we develop into school age, we become children, as we continue developing and go through puberty we enter the stage of adolescence and once we mature and develop a sense of identity we reach adulthood. Although this may be true, developing a sense of identity has become harder to obtain as industrialization and other factors have affected the way adolescents achieve…
Most people, at one point or another, hit a point when they need to become mature. Some people sooner, others later. Maturity though, is not something based on the amount of birthday candles you’ve blown out as maturity is a mental state and is simply determined by circumstances. Maturity is something that is a mental state, not a birthday present. Maturity is instead something where you begin doing the correct and responsible decisions in the right situations. It’s a point when the brain…
Tigriopus Californicus is from an area where its environment is under a constant fluctuation of variables. The salinity and temperature of its environment are often changing on a daily basis. Because of this T. californicus can often adapt well extremes in it environment. We chose to test the copepods ability to survive in extreme temperatures. This experiment is important to the development of knowledge of copepods due to temperatures vast influences on the development of health copepods.…
Paragraph 1:Title of the career/occupation you chose and a summary/description of the job in your own words.What led you to this career in science? The career I have chosen is a surgeon. A surgeon operates to fix injuries, correct deformities, prevent diseases, and help out the patients in any other way they can.

different evolutionary pressures that help the species to survive. In this part of the world, malaria is a threat to human survival. When a person with favism have red blood cells that are more fragile and hostile, turning them into an unfriendly environment for the malaria parasite to thrive. Thus, malarial parasites find the red blood cells of people with favism not to their liking, allowing the people with protection against malaria, a life threatening disease. Further investigation showed…
Genetic engineering is the manipulation of genes in an organism with the intention of making that organism better in some way. Scientific breakthroughs such as genetic engineering can have both positive and negative impacts. The history of scientific theories to explain human evolution and development demonstrate how these theories can help to better understand and improve human existence, but can also be perversely applied to support racism. One major positive impact of genetic engineering is…
