To start we will be looking at blood’s role in distribution of lead. Blood plays a major role in the distribution of lead even though it has a tendency to carry a small fraction of the total amount of lead present in a body. This is due to the fact that blood is constantly circulating and coming into contact every single part of the human body. Lead found within the blood system on average has a half life nearing only 1 month. Next is distribution and storage through the accumulation of many…

If you ask a cat owner to describe their beloved pet using one word, chances are they will use the word independent to define their furry little friend. Cats give off this immediate impression that they don’t really require us, humans are but a pawn in their world, you see they are quiet in nature and don’t seem to be super needy. Cats learn things on their own, you can’t really train most cats, if you have trained your cat to do anything, rest assured that your cat actually wanted to learn that…

I have always been fascinated by dogs all my life. Although, I have never owned one, if I had the choice it would be a Bull Terrier or it cousin the Pit Bull. They are from the same family of dogs with similar body types but different in everything else. In recent TV and newspaper reports, my choice would be easy. The Bull Terrier and the Pit Bull are different in looks, breeds, and personalities. The first difference between the dogs is their looks. The Bull Terrier has a strong…

One of the qualities of lead that make it one of the most highly studied heavy metals is its ability to enter and distributes into the body’s organ systems. Inorganic lead is absorbed by coming into contact with the skin, ingestion, and inhalation.* It is debated whether ingestion of lead or inhalation of lead caused the most significant damage and which one occurs more frequently. The physiological effects of lead can be seen soon after exposure. The uptake of lead in the body is influenced by…

Products made with this recycled lead find their way to international markets and industrialized countries (AAAS, 2013). Some countries still use leaded fuel for vehicles and thusly have an increase in the BLL in the population (GLASS, 2014). With the use of lead in industrialized countries and lack of regulation or protection in developing countries, the problem of lead exposure is a worldwide concern.

“Only my dogs will not betray me.” (Maria Callas). Dogs have been around for a very long time, since the beginning of mankind. They have been existing since 13000 B.C. in Central Asia. Before, humans feared these wolves, until they figured out that they ate their leftover foods that drew insects and protected them from the wild. Dogs descended from wolves and slowly evolved into the modern dog, for example, a tiny Chihuahua to a huge great dane. On the other hand, cats also have been around for…

“Woof” Versus “Meow” “Bark” or “Purr”, dog or cat, which is better? I personally prefer dogs because they trust easily, are easier to train, love to play, and will have a stronger bond with you.

Each passionately believing that their preferred pet is superior, but which one is better a forming a relationship with you (“Scientist Prove Dogs Are Better Than Cats”)? A dog forms a relationship with you better than a cat and that…
