The Paris Act held in Paris in November 2015, seems to quite the worries of many, about the dramatic issue of climate change, while scientists like James Hansen, a researcher on atmospheric physics at NASA that contributed significantly to the discovery global warming, depicts the Paris agreement as a “Fraud, a fake” (The Guardian, Dec.12, 2015). The Paris Act should theoretically represent an agreement, although in reality, there is no real agreement on measures, procedures and timing, in…

Introduction Has environment pressure of sunlight contributed to the variation in iris pigmentation? Only 10,000 years ago, someone who lived near the Black sea developed a mutation, which resulted in blue iris pigmentation (Eiberg, 2008). The iris consists of small connective tissue surrounded by muscular structure with a central opening known as the pupil (Sturm, 2008). This pupil allows the eye to control the amount of light, which enters to allow they eye to focus the lens to the retina.…

Target Article: 1. Whitaker, R, 2016, ‘A Dominant Social Comparison Heuristic Unites Alternative Mechanisms for the Evolution of Indirect Reciprocity’. Sci. Rep. 6, 31459; doi: 10.1038/srep31459. This article encapsulates the research of Professor Roger Whitaker which suggests that the evolution of the human brain is related to the concept of examining one another and making decisions as to whether we want to help each other or not (Science Daily 2016). The results of a test…

themselves to be better than their dishonesty to themselves and others around them to gain a stronger conscious mind (Meyers 34). In a perfect world humanity would have a sense of individuality, but due to the pressures of high demanding societies we homo sapiens have been forced to conform and attempt to reach that high demand standard which is near impossible to achieve. Around the world people have made themselves unrecognizable to their true selves, they have changed their clothes, change…

until paleopathologists provided evidence using ancient remains to support what they were claiming. It also has a significant impact in creating the reconstruction of the difficult connections among diseases and human beings during the time of Homo sapiens. Many diseases are affecting many skeletons of today. The advancement of paleopathology started in eighteenth century, but by the nineteenth century paleopathologists found the cause of Syphilis. ( ) Syphilis is a contagious infection that is…

Introduction Abortion is the ending of pregnancy by removing a fetus or embryo before it can survive outside the uterus. An abortion may be caused purposely and is then called an induced abortion and is one part of a spectrum of sexual and reproductive health care. Providing good abortion care to Queensland women must form part of a larger strategy to increase sexual and reproductive health knowledge, improve access to contraception and sexuality education programs, ensure all women can access…

Do we evolve from humans, many people think we do but we don’t we might share an ancestor with them, and i also don’t think we evolve from them. The importance of this study is to figure out how, if, and do we evolve from monkeys. How it could affect society is if apes are our ancestors then that might mean that some random ape in the world could be our ancestor and we don’t even know it, and if we do evolve from humans how are their monkeys still,and they're not humans. Since apes are our…

and violence, and one of the few of which I fundamentally agree. From the earliest days of mankind, there is evidence of primeval humanoids slaughtering animals not only for their meat, but for the bones and tusks as well. As time progressed, and Homo sapiens evolved into what and who we are today, the need to kill animals for food remained, but it was the violence that advanced. Hitler, Stalin, Mussolini, Attila the Hun: All men yet all the while monsters. In fact, Adolf Hitler nearly…

Introduction Forensic anthropologists use the skeletal system to identify remains through different methods. In this paper, I will discuss stature and sex primarily in regards to the elements and methods that can be used to determine them, along with the circumstance of their use and the debates surrounding their use. In regards to stature sex determination, different methods have been used in biological anthropology including morphological, statistical, and metric analysis. Each of these…
