Some soldiers came out of the trenches stuttering, trembling or even blind. First documented during WWI, soldiers had nightmares when they accidently killed a comrade. Those situations could have an effect on the physical, physiological, and psychological parts of troops. Throughout most of WWI, a majority of the warfare used shells or missiles. The psychiatrist believed that shell shock was a literal shocking to the brain in the frontal lobe (Rae, 2007). PTSD was not a recognized disorder…

The animal testing process does help researchers for scientific advancement required in drug and cosmetic testing. This is to ensure the safety of humans. However, does the process of animal testing humane at all? Do its benefits justify the suffering caused by humans to animals? Thus, Laura and I will defend the rights of animals by stating different disadvantages in animal testing. Life in the laboratory is a world away from the natural environment. They are often housed in isolation, in…

related from an evolutionary standpoint as physiological responses may vary. However, animal models are required simply because experimentation on humans is tightly regulated while being surrounded by controversial ethical issues. As such, animal testing can be inaccurate but it possesses predictive value and the inaccuracy in relation to humans does not necessarily invalidate animal models but rather…

regulations being broken, animals are put through terrible amounts of physical and psychological pain. An artical titled “animal testing and the law” states that “Given the climate of poor regulatory oversight, many animals are abused, neglected, and harmed in ways that violate the law ("Animal Testing and[...]), and also “Legal requirements (like providing pain killers) are regularly overridden. ("Animal Testing and[...]).”. Animalsn feel pain like humans do, and treating them like they dont…

sufficiently to be usefully oppressed both in constructing and testing animal models. Animal models offer a strong methodology for examining the disease problems and enlarge some therapies. Homologous models are very uncommon in the field of neuroscience. There are some isomorphic models which are more universal, but they show analogous symptoms. Animal models have got two main uses in the field of neuroscience research, first is the development and testing of theory about neurological and…
