Animal Experimentation Should not be Allowed Anymore Why should a rabbit have to experimented on and suffered pain just for a lipstick to be consider safe to apply? Scientist have been using animals for tests, researches, and experiments for years. The experimentation on animals can be traced back all the way to the Second Century A.D. when the Greek physician, Galen, study the anatomy of animals by dissecting them while still being alive (“Animal Testing”). Centuries later scientists are still…

The brain split case was first discovered in the laboratory by Roger Sperry and Ronal Meyers. The brain split was first tested on humans in 1961. Patients were not capable to transport most of the data starting with one half of the their head to the other. This meant that there were two differentiate brains. Micheal Gazzaniga completed further analyses which demonstrated the left side of the hemisphere on adjusting for its absence of information, and additionally endeavors toward the right side…

Although the data seems to be representative, there might be some sort of sampling error that could have occurred. If I were to replicate this experiment, I would have more representations of races. In the sample described by the authors, the majority of the participants are Asian and Whites. Asians and Whites are over represented in this research and can cause a sampling error to occur. The hypothesis…

Deese-Roedieger- McDermott Paradigm The Deese-Roedieger-McDermott (DRM) paradigm represents a strategy used to implant false memories even when information is not directly exposed to an individual (Watson, Poole, Bunting, & Conway, 2005). Roediger and McDermott (1995) adopted an experimental procedure originally developed by Deese (1959) who revealed that adults who studied a list of words were more likely to report a related word that was not presented. Deese was interested in testing…

article “Goals: An Approach to Motivation and Achievement” they focus on two very contrasting reactions to failure. They go through and give you extreme detail on what their experiment entailed, interesting findings, and what they ended up concluding at the end of the study. Elliott and Dweck’s center of attention in this experiment was to test their hypothesis that different goals set up the observed helpless and mastery-oriented patterns. They suggest that individuals seek two major goals…

They suffer in agony, are being infused with misery, and long to be uncaged. Instead, they wait with their anxiety filled thoughts of what expect in the operating room (“Animal’s Used”). Animal experimentation (or vivisection) 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” (“What is”). According to Christopher Lawrence, animal dissection has been first traced back to the ancient…

can use the scientific method to better understand. Learning the steps of the scientific method will help them with the numerous experiments we will do throughout the year. Knowing first off to identify the problem, then to ask a question following up by doing research will follow them throughout life experiences. They then can make a hypothesis, and conduct experiments, following up by collecting and analyzing data. Drawing their conclusion and sharing their results concludes the scientific…

Henoildo is a very bright, intelligent young man. He has always demonstrated advanced progression in the different academic areas. He loves science and working on various experiments. I have signed him up for various science camps to encourage him to continue with his learning. Another area Henoildo loves is music. His musical intelligence is quite impressive and he is advanced in reading and playing music. He plays in the school orchestra band and jazz band. Over the past few years he…

Hope Jahren’s memoir, Lab Girl, tells of her courageous journey to becoming an award-winning scientist. Throughout her book, she tells personal accounts of her trials and struggles she had to conquer to become as successful as she is. She discusses her battles with depression and bipolar disorders, along with the harsh comments because she is a female becoming a prosperous scientist. Through all her trials, she speaks of always knowing she belongs in a lab. Science and any form of spirituality…

unsuccessful in clinical studies because experimenters cannot precisely predict how tests on animal species will perform in people, according to laboratory and animal studies. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration admits that more than half of their experiments involving animals result in the trash because the difficulty of handling with animals are producing false information. Animal testing is unpredictable because the condition of each individual animal and species will vary. Clearly,…
