Division III

The idea of taking stem cells and using them to create more stem cells is hardly new. With the experiments dating back to the 1950s, new breakthroughs are making it a viable option for these stem cells to be used to find cures for cancer, and help heal heart, brain, and spinal injuries that otherwise would have been debilitating or fatal. The controversial question that has arose from this research is whether or not it is ethical to kill an embryo to harvest these stem cells. The answer is no.…

“Stem cell research is the key to developing cures for degenerative conditions like Parkinson's and motor neuron disease from which I and many others suffer”- Stephen Hawking, 2006. At first glance, the idea might seem cruel and mortifying to some that one would kill a helpless baby and destroy the life of an innocent for the purpose of curing others. However, research has shown that embryonic stem cells can potentially cure Alzheimer’s, spinal injuries and find a long term treatment for…

stem cell or become a different type of cell that would undergo a certain function such as a muscle cell in the heart. Not only they can turn into nearly any cell in the human body, but they are capable of renovating themselves by undergoing cell division,…

Hypothalamic programming of systemic ageing involving IKK-b, NF-kB and GnRH (Zhang et al., 2013). Cellular senescence is when a cell’s replicative mechanism becomes arrested. This was phenomenon was first described in Hayflick’s experiment. Cellular senescence is usually due to protect the cell from becoming cancerous but it also plays a prominent role in aging (van Deursen, 2014). While senescence describes a halt in proliferation, cancer development is the uncontrolled proliferation of…

Destruction; the action or process of causing so much damage to something that it no longer exists or cannot be repaired. Destruction is overtaking the lives of innocent people by inhuman acts. The majority of people in today’s worldly society are suffering from laws that seize to exist. Their needs to be a change in the acts of gruesome people, and if I had a chance to create three rules, it would benefit everybody. I would stop pregnant women from smoking, unite North and South Korea and…

Introduction Mitosis is by definition, “A type of cell division that results in two daughter cells each having the same number of chromosomes as the parent nucleus, typical of ordinary tissue growth.” Mitosis is a vital process to living organisms. Without mitosis, organisms could not grow, age, repair, or exist in general. Therefore, it is very important that the cell cycle is carefully controlled by the cell. This refers to is the limits set on cell division to prevent it from growing out of…

levels like division two or three schools? Athletes will feel as if they deserve to be paid a fair amount for their abilities just as much as a division one athlete gets paid. On a performance scale or measurement these athletes could have the same skill level but playing in different leagues. So if the other side were to argue that division one athletes deserve to get paid more I would rebut that athletes with many offers sometimes choose a big division two school over a mid-major division one…

On the 16th day of November, I had left the comforts of my hometown of Denver to begin the journey to South Korea. In this journey I was fortunate to learn and study about the Korean criminal justice system and the strong culture they value. After a long 16 hour flight I had finally arrived in Incheon Korea. After waiting for the bus, and the check in at the hotel I was ready to explore Korea until my classmate arrived. When the whole class arrived the following day, I was eager to get out and…

Canadian poet, Raymond Souster, explores the thematic implications of the individual’s urban experience, representing the Canadian city center as a place of isolating corruption that maps an unchanging Toronto. Drawing on the modernist impulse to criticize the industrialization of society, Souster moves away from the Canadian tradition of writing naturalistic visions into the sphere of the cityscape. In his poems, “Robinson Street”, and “The Coldest Winter”, Souster uses images of isolated…

I argue that not only should Division I football players create a labour union, but that by doing so will provide many positive outcomes and possibilities to the players themselves. I believe that by forming a labour union, the players would finally get power, profits and their voices…
