Peterson Charlie Gordon is a very unique human being. He is 37 years old, and he lives in New York. All he wants to do is be smart, because he is not the smartest person in the world. His IQ is 68, so he really wanted to be smart, and fit in with everybody. He is going to have a operation, done to him by two doctors, to make him smarter. Were the doctors being ethical when they wanted Charlie to do the operation, or was it just for science? Ethics is two things. The study of and…

Animal testing has been an enormous discussion in the biomedical realm over the last fifty years due to a question of superiority and injustice among species. Scientists perform “medical research” on animals in order to “benefit” mankind by elongating the human life span. In reality, several of these experiment results have no direct or immediate purpose in the medical industry, but rather are legal ways for researchers to test interests and personal curiosity. For instance, in Case I, one…

Breast Cancer, Childhood leukemia, Chronic Myeloid leukemia, Lung Cancer, and many other diabolical diseases all have a greater survival rate due to animal testing. Animal testing has enabled the development of many life saving treatments for both humans and animals. Although it is referred to as being cruel and inhuman, there is no accurate alternative method for researching a complete living organism. Animal testing should be continued as a scientific method for saving human lives because it’s…

While people are shopping at their local supermarkets, they pick out their essential everyday products, for example, makeup, shampoos, and lotions. When people select their items, they tend to not realize what their products use to be tested on. Many individuals could be encouraging animal cruelty and not be aware of it. This affects innocent animals from all over the world. Everyday there are various defenceless, and harmless animals that are being exposed to harmful and deadly chemicals.…

Imagine this: a human wakes up in a lab one day full of wires, tools, and unfamiliar objects. A scientist comes in poking and sticking him or her with needles for no reason. A few days later, this same human is sick, afraid, and dying. Would any moral human being let this act continue? The answer is no; however, humans let this go on everyday in the lives of innocent animals. The only solution is for people to raise awareness. Animal testing should be banned! The first reason why animal…

I read Refuting Evolution by Jonathan Sarfati. I read the following three chapters: “The Links are Missing,” “Bird Evolution,” and the “Conclusion” of the whole book. In the first chapter it explained the missing links of various animals. It explained that the fossil records showed the animals fossilizing abruptly and all completely formed from the flood. It was almost impossible for an animal to slowly get fossilized because scavengers would have eaten the animal. This was an example of how…

Describe your process for evaluating and selecting sources. How did you decide which sources to use and which not to use? Did you add or change sources for your research assignments? If so, why? When I first decided that I want to write about animal experimentation, I went on opposing viewpoint website to search for articles and statistics. After reading couple of the articles, I evaluated which sources are useful and suitable to support my claims. From there, I began to select useful sources…

It is certainly easy to understand the strong feelings behind the use of animals in medical research, which continually fuels the ongoing debate as to whether or not animal testing is an ethical and legitimate science. The need for laboratory animals is clear, given all the discoveries that have developed through this practice. It has led to a better understanding of both behavior and physiology, not to mention the knowledge in preventing or curing a variety of conditions and diseases.…

Animal testing for cosmetics is a highly debated issue. Animal testing is harmful to animals but tests whether chemicals are safe for our use. It is highly debated because the European Union banned animal testing in 2013 but in some places its mandatory like in China (Chitrakorn para. 3 & 13). Even though it is mandatory in some places it is harmful to animals and sometimes kills them. These tests are harmful to animals and sometimes kill them. It is so harmful the ways they test different…

1. The polio vaccine was tested on animal before being mass distributed to humans during the polio epidemic. The vaccine reduced the 350,000 cases in 1988, to only 223 cases of polio in 2012. Also, the use of chimpanzees for test, lead to the discovery of the Hepatitis B vaccine. 2. Animal research is regulated by the federal government under the Animal Welfare Act. This act mandates the minimum housing and enclosure requirements for the animals being testing on. In order to pass inspection,…
