In the video clip from an episode of “What Would You Do?” a (fake) waitress tending to customers was featured. The waitress’ customer service was extremely poor. Firstly, I noticed that the waitress did not properly greet the customers in a warm and welcoming manner. She simply asked, “Are you ready?,” instead of introducing herself and making the customer feel welcomed. Next, while customer was telling the waitress her order, the waitress was listening to her bluetooth device instead of the…
affect your brain? First of all, concussions occur when the brain bounces against the skull after someone's head is bumped. Concussions are fairly common, especially if you are playing sports. Since the brain is very difficult to study, scientists do not know what exactly happens at a molecular level inside the brain during and after a concussion.

Does breed affect how emotions are portrayed? Through these questions, I can attempt to discover what the truth is about a dog's emotions. Is there more…
How do weed killers work? There are different types of weed killers: a) contact weed killers, b) systemic weed killers, c) selective weed killers, d) non-selective weed killers, e) residual weed killers, and (f) non-residual weed killers. The contact weed killers kill only the part of the plant that the chemical touches, therefore the weed killer must contact most of the plant’s surface.

All organisms derive from one common ancestor; however, the reason why organisms do not all look alike is because of evolution. When it comes to survival of the fittest it is all about who can adapt the quickest and evolve in order to keep the species alive. Two main factors come into play in evolution: abiotic and biotic factors. Organisms are constantly fighting abiotic forces such as weather. Weather or change of weather is one of the biggest reasons for organisms evolving. When the climate…
The lecture Crossing Lines and Doing Time by Rosalie Reigle discussed how civil disobedience is a non-violent way to stand for what you believe in and make a difference in the world. Rosalie believes that violence in the world is not inevitable since she believes human nature is generally good. She believes violence can be ended if individuals resist ideas they see as wrong through protesting, sit ins, and strikes. She gave many examples of ordinary individuals, who were willing to go to jail or…
