Food science

December 15th, 2013. This was the day I established the Science Leaders of Tomorrow, SLOT, in order to stimulate other students’ interest in science and math. With SLOT, I volunteered at a local elementary school with other students to teach the kids about science and engineering. I once helped a fifth grade student, Manny, who was struggling with circuits in his science class. After working closely with Manny for two weeks, he was able to use circuits to build and program a robot. The next time…

Animal Rights The first genetically modified animal was AquAdvantage salmon in 2015 was permitted for food use. Genetic modification of animals involves mutation, insertion, and deletion of genes. The purpose of this paper is to examine that is it moral and permissible to genetically modify animals for greater food production? It will also examine how genetic modification crosses species boundaries. The genetic engineering of animals has increased at an alarming rate in the past few…

replace human dissection, but was banned by catholic church for its horrible practice. Anatomists just assumed animals like dogs, cats etc were born unable to sense pain (Animal Testing is Unethical). The 20th century brought many more inventions/ sciences but they still wanted to continue practicing on animals. They spent 100’s of years of creating new ways to help find cures and minerals but they…

I think that mistakes are not key in making discoveries. “Thomas Edison said that inventing was 1 percent inspiration and 99 percent perspiration,” as stated in “In Praise of Careful Science.” Inventing is hard, it needs a lot of dedication and work. Few people are lucky to be motivated by mistakes, like Percy Spencer and Isaac Newton. Sometimes mistakes may start the process of making a discovery, but to make a discovery you need careful experiments and study, and those take time and work.…

The article was about an old reptile named the Dimetrodon. It was based back even 50 million years before the dinosaurs came to be and was the biggest land creature of its time but was only the size of a small crocodile. There is very little that any scientist knows about the Dimetrodon except its size and habitat.Until October 14 when researchers discovered the animals diet. At a pit in Seymour, Texas Paleontologists, Bakker, and Stephen Hobe found the fossils of many Dimetrodons and small…

A Case to Defend the Use of Animals Through history, humans have used animals for food, clothing, and entertainment. Christianity and Judaism’s scripture teaches that God created animals and put them on the earth to serve human beings. However, the teachings of major Asian religions such as Buddhism, Hinduism, and Jainism say that it is wrong for human to harm animals. Therefore, various religions have affected how people around the world view animals and led people to argue that whether the…

about myself. I am a science enthusiast. I love doing all the cool experiments and learning about the planets and Earth. I have been homeschooling this year and it is not very fun. I usually can’t do any of the science experiments because we don’t have all the right materials, which is very disappointing since my science lesson is my favorite part of the day. I’ve loved reading since I was a little girl and I would always choose books that would teach me everything related to science, nature,…

Since DNA was discovered in 1935, humankind has made incredible bounds in the field of genetics. Recently scientists from the National Taiwan University's Department of Animal Science and Technology have discovered a way to make pigs glow in the dark by using the genetic material of a jellyfish. What they did was extract the genetic material of a jellyfish and inject it into the embryos of pigs in the hopes that the pigs would be born green, and they were. The three pigs that they were…

the Royal Society and awarded to a scientist that shows achievements in research in any branch of science. As members of the Royal Society it is our duty to nominate and pick scientists that rightly deserve the medal. It is our job as the Royal Society to discuss these nominations in a scholarly way and not disrespect any of the finding of other scientist. The scientists’ theories are important to science because they add value to the community. There were many great nominations this past year…

True science has given us airplanes, electricity, heart transplants, the computer, artificial intelligence, genetic engineering and a host of vital everyday goods and services. True science takes what God has given, try to understand it, subject it to all kinds of experiments and tests and see what secrets it can reveal and marshal them for the betterment…
