Where did we come from? Even children become struck with the question about the origin of life. As tough as it may be to tell a young child how babies appear, it does not compare to the complexity of explaining how the entire universe began. Every human encompasses a natural desire to discover the truth, but it persists as one of the most controversial subjects. Some philosophical minds, Evolutionists or Darwinists, believe all substance started with a “Big Bang” and then began to evolve into…

Anthropology, the study of humankind, has four main branches: Cultural Anthropology, Archaeology, Linguistic Anthropology and Physical Anthropology (Larsen 2014). Physical Anthropology focuses mainly on uncovering the mysteries of human evolution by studying fossilized bones of ancient humans and primates to determine their place in our family tree and study what circumstances led to the evolution of the modern human (Larsen 2014). There is a specialty within Physical Anthropology called…

While on the trip he discovered ‘“ three large bones which I attempt to excavate and photograph. The upper extremity is heavily weathered and incomplete but measures 110 cm long and 15 cm thick . The second and better one underneath is probably a femur and is wholly 95 centimeters long and, in the middle, also 15 cm thick. The third is too deep in the ground and will take too much time to recover”’ (pg. 79 in The Lost Dinosaurs of Egypt). Stromer made most of his finds at Gebel Del Eist. He had…

Doctors and scientist use blood every day for research. For examples, they use blood in studies to help make medication or to even find cures. Doctors also use their patients’ blood to preform test to see if they have some sort of an affection or life-threating virus that is causing their patients to be sick. Reasons why doctors use blood for their test or research is because the human blood or any organisms blood is very complex because it has all sorts of pathogens, leukocytes (white blood…

ORGAN DONATION: THE GIFT OF LIFE Doctor’s declared that Martin Wayne Lennox would not survive three days after his birth on January 17, 1965. Having just informed his parents that their newborn son had a hole that engulfed 50 percent of his heart, the doctors said it would be a miracle if he lived. The small infant held on with what little strength he possessed and overcame the odds. Martin continued to grow and, with each doctor’s visit, his parents were told he had a very slim chance of…

Background Turner’s syndrome is a genetic disorder that occurs in 1 in every 2,500 female births. Though it occurs in about 3% of fetuses, 99% of these fetuses are spontaneously aborted[1]. Turner’s syndrome can be defined as a combination of phenotypes with varying expressivity along with the complete or partial loss of an X sex chromosome[2]. Symptoms of Turner’s syndrome include, but aren’t limited to short stature, glucose intolerance, broad chest and widely spread nipples, amenorrhea,…

Humans Evolved From Apes Where humans came from is a question that has been asked since the beginning of time. Some people believe we were created by a god. Others believe we were created by multiple gods. However, anatomical and behavioral similarities with modern apes, along with fossil evidence of our evolutionary history, gives proof that humans evolved from an ape-like ancestor and are in fact, still apes. To understand the evidence behind this, some background information on evolution…

People who face hard times often find courage and determination in order to overcome their problems. The courage and determination that people find is often something they never thought they had and are taken by surprise when they come across it. If you have the right approach on difficult times, you can use them as a chance to grow as a person, as Malcolm X and Frederick Douglass did in their narratives. “Coming to an Awareness of Language” and “Learning to Read Write” tell the story of…

A survivor is someone who is defined by outliving others in a time of death for others. If an interview was conducted with survivors from different situations they would come up with a diverse group of tips for survival, but many would be repeated. In the book Deep Survival: Who Lives, Who Dies, and Why Laurence Gonzales has taken a collection of these common stretegies and created a survival book for any situation. Through this book you are able to connect similarities in two completely…
