Animal Experimentation Animal experimentation- the process of using animals to test the safety of products in order to better understand the workings of the human body. Did you know that 95% of the animals used in experiments are not protected by the AWA? (animalresearch.thehastingscenter.org) This includes rats, mice, birds, fish, and many other creatures common to animal experimentation. 80% of the world allows animal testing for cosmetic products; however, approximately half of the global…

rabbits and dogs for cosmetics and other cleaning items. Scientists research on nonhuman animals to study disease and test new treatments and operations. We are discriminating other species when we mutilate their bodies for profit because we would not experiment and test on other humans. The Plague Dogs and Bold Native films provide a realistic view of the set-up and workings in animal researching laboratories. In the former movie, Rowf is being tested for physical endurance so scientists put…

So, what is animal testing? When you Google this question, the answer will go something like: “an animal test [that] is any scientific experiment or test in which a live animal is forced to undergo something that is likely to cause them pain, suffering, distress or lasting harm”. Authors Silvio Garattini and Giuliano GrignaschiIn their academic journal “Animal testing is still the best way to find new treatments for patients” and Nancy Beck and Hope R. Ferdowsian in their academic journal…

In the experiment I conducted we were trying to figure out in what types of solution would the gummy bears expand the most. The hypothesis I came up with is if the gummy bear is in different liquids then it will get bigger in size. Two trials were tested because the first time we did all the gummy bears dissolved and we were lead to believe the we left them in the liquids too long. They made the liquids almost feel like jell-o texture and we don't know if they expanded before they or not because…

The “Bubble Boy” gene therapy experiment is one of the experiments on gene therapy. Gene therapy is still a moral debate to this day, some people beg the question if it’s okay to use gene therapy or what would it do to the human body which are all great questions. The discussion will be on whether the “Bubble Boy” gene therapy experiment was ethical or not and if the treatment was worth the risk. Basically the “Bubble Boy” experiment was on children suffering from the bubble boy disease which…

name of science.” However, a lot of these experiments are conducted under terrible conditions, and the results cannot even be applied to human medicine and health. Also, with all of the advancements in technology we have made in recent years, we have plenty of alternative testing methods that we could use instead of animal experimenting. In experiments, animals are treated as just test subjects…

Participants for this experiment were the students attending their psychology 101 class during normal class hours. The entire class consisted of thirteen males and eleven females all of which attend Western New England University and all had agreed to participate in the experiment. Materials The material used was simply two different answer sheets, one half of the participants got one, while the other half got the other answer sheet. One answer sheet had basic instructions of the experiment…

The two-point threshold experiment is meant to test a person's ability to perceive details on different parts of the body. Measurements varied on regions of the body depending on the size of their receptive fields. While the distance of the two points on my forearm was about three and a half centimeters, the distance between them on my upper arm was just barely four centimeters. Another example would be between my finger and thigh. The distance between the two points on my finger was 0.3…

model that even equates closely to what we’re trying to achieve in the human.” Another Professor, Thomas Hartung said, “We are not 70 kg rats.” From (https://www.crueltyfreeinternational.org), the article stated, “The harmful use of animals in experiments is not only cruel but also often ineffective. Animals do not get many of the human diseases that people do, such as major types of heart disease, many types of cancer, HIV, Parkinson’s disease, or schizophrenia.” These animals that go through…

Ostherr also convincingly connects her evidence to her sub-claims and central argument. In Chapter One, Ostherr uses the Rockefeller Foundation’s production of Unhooking the Hookworm as an example of how biopower works—the health film had the ability to either “help viewers imagine unseen worlds and change their behavior accordingly [emphasis added], or alternatively, to reject the visualization as implausible and, therefore, irrelevant to their daily life,” in which case biopower would not have…
