Jurassic

for the entire film, showing the perfect chemistry between Ron’s bubbly enthusiasm and Matt’s awkward personality. The short film also does well with its sneaking in of little details in the dialogue, this showcased when Matt referred to the movie Jurassic Park as simply “JP”. But again, Ron’s mini rants filled with punch - lines although meant to be comedic, is an example of too much of a good thing being…

CRISPR. It sounded like a new cereal or snack food when my AP Biology teacher first mentioned this technology. Instead, she introduced a gene editing tool developed in 2011 by Jennifer Doudna, a graduate of Pomona College. Using proteins that precisely cut DNA, scientists can make specific genome edits, which have already resulted in cures for mice with sickle cell anemia. Almost daily, I hear about research that cures even more genetic diseases using this technique. This technology fascinates…

The first mammals evolved from mammal-like reptiles at the end of the triassic period. Therapsids, or mammal-like reptiles, is an order of reptiles that lived in the Permian and Triassic Periods before going extinct in the mid Jurassic Period. It is difficult for scientist to determine when the divide between therapsids and mammals occurred. Early mammals had small, mouselike forms. Very few were large, because dinosaurs were the unquestioned dominant land animals on earth. The ecological niche…

An individual has a higher chance of getting hit by an asteroid (1 in 700,000) in their lifetime, than they have winning the Powerball (1 in 185,000,000). However, it is still very unlikely, that such an event will happen during our time on Earth. After all, there are between 1.1 and 1.9 million asteroids in the Asteroid Belt, between Mars and Jupiter (“Asteroids: In Depth” 2). Who is to say one of those massive asteroids will not go on a collision course with Earth, and cause another…

speaker in front of the room told us, “You may begin.” The first song we played was “Dorchester” which was a festival song with an upbeat tempo. I had to speed up my playing because the trumpet players were rushing through the song. Next, we played “Jurassic Park”which is the theme song of…

James H. Clark James H. Clark’s childhood is interesting. .James H. Clark was born on March 24, 1944 in Plainview, Texas. During his childhood, he was usually around poverty and people described him as a strong willed boy. People started to know when he was strong willed when his parents divorced when he was 14. He started to live with his mother and they were poor, with their mother only supporting James and his 2 siblings with only $225 dollars a month. During high school, James was usually a…

According to a new study, Mars is emerging from a 400,000-year thaw. The recent research may also give NASA scientists more information about the Red Planet. Information scientists can possibly use to understand Earth’s changing climate better. The Mars ice age ended roughly 400,000 years ago, yet the planet is still pretty frosty. Scientists believe that the massive amount of ice that once accumulated around the Martian poles could be the reason. The study’s findings noted that if all that ice…

The Bone Wars, also referred to the ‘the Great Dinosaur Rush’ is a geologic time period in history which there was an intense period of paleontology discovery, over a hundred new species were found during this time. This was mainly due in part to a rivalry between two men, Othniel Marsh and Edward Cope whom were known to go to extreme lengths to undermine each other. While, many fossils were found between the two men they were not above lying, cheating and even stealing from each other to win…

have limbs and now are commonly live near water. Class Reptilia evolved from the class Amphibia during the Carboniferous period and now primarily reside in warm dry climates. Classes Aves and Mammilia both evolved from the class Reptilia during the Jurassic period and now reside in a diverse environments ranging from mountains to…

They also don't have a choice where they go, they just have to go somewhere. My claim for this is that every one has to go through the jurassic changes as a refugee. My evidence is coming from the book “Inside out and back again”and the article “ Refugee Transitions¨ In the book inside out and back again, Ha is having to leave her home, family, and friends because war is breaking out and…
