The main topic of this essay is comparing and contrasting the short story The Medicine Bag and the video “ Apache Girl’s Rite of Passage”. One important feature of the story is how Martin's feelings are described and how and why they are changing gradually from plain comfort to deep embarrassment to nervous unrest to strong pride toward his grandpa and the medicine bag. Also, an important feature of the video is how camera angles, music, special effects, and dialogue go together to set the…

The creation and migration stories have clues to common to the Diné culture. The creation story deals with male and female energy, and four in relation to the number two is a ritualistic theme: two ears of corn faced in the four cardinal directions, the corn was breathed on four times to create two beings –man and woman (Sheridan & Parezo, 1996, pp. 4). There is a content tie into duality north needing south, east needing west and the combination of them into four. When the Diné migrated from…

In Thomson’s Defense of Abortion there are some premises that are false in his argument. Thomson gives multiple arguments on why he believes abortion is permissible and though I agree with him his arguments tend to be focused on the extreme. In one of his argument, Thomson’s mention a mother having an abortion to save her life is seen as murder but he concludes that is false because if not the mother dies. Though I would agree with Thomson’s a person has a choice when it comes to an abortion,…

Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs) have developed into one of the most controversial issues of our time. In recent years, consumers seem to possess a more conscious tone about the quality of their food. Most however, understand an insufficient amount about GMOs along with the risks they impose. Since their introduction, genetically modified foods have not undergone enough research on their potential ill effects. Moreover, genetically modified crops have demonstrated themselves as a damaging…

Think about the many times people have intentionally killed bees or other pollinators, even though they weren’t doing any harm. All of these times add up, and consequently a major bee crisis evolves. Beekeepers continue to report hive losses each year. This means that pollinating insects have been on a steep decline for many reasons. The bees must be helped now, especially since 90% of the world’s nutrition is pollinated by bees (Green Peace, n.d.). The decline in pollinators worldwide over the…

Sweetness and Light, by Hattie Ellis, is about the history and biology of bees. Bee biology is the main study being covered throughout the entire book. It is very interesting to learn that there is evidence of bee existence for over 800,000 years. In Africa there is cave art of bees that allow biologist to predict their time beginning time of existence. There are three types of honeybees which are the queen, drone, and worker bees. The queen bee is the head of the hive that has the most…

his eyes. For instance in the poem Georgia Dusk, from the African American Literature novel by Keith Gilyard and Anissa Wardi, Toomer says, “The sawmill blows its whistle, buzz-saws stop, And silence breaks the bud of knoll and hill, Soft settling pollen where plowed lands fulfill Their early promise of a bumper crop” (264). This is just one of many stanzas from this poem that tells of the rich vision of southern culture Toomer portrays. Jean Toomer allows himself to see the beauty in the…

This mutualistic relationship between the two allows the plant to benefit from the attraction of a specific pollinator species, to hopefully ensure its reproductive success is carried out. This is achieved by the pollinator physically moving the pollen from one flower to another. The pollinator itself will benefit from its interaction with the plant species, as it ensures access to food resources required for survival. Pollination syndromes are considered those characteristics such as shape,…
