Xenotransplantation is the process of transplanting or grafting organs and tissue between different species. As you’re transplanting a foreign organ not from the same species as you, this has many social and biological implications. Including the fact that there’s could be new viruses and pathogens passed over between species with the potential to cause a mass epidemic and kill of many members of a species. Also this procedure although been around for a long time it hasn’t had a very high…

other rocks, meaning by using one rock or fossils scientists can then determine about what age a rock is that is close to the age of the rock they already know. The rocks scientist use to compare to other rocks are index fossils. Index fossils are species that that lived for a brief amount of time and are abundant. Scientists also use the Law of Superposition, which states the youngest layers are on the top while the oldest layers are on the bottom. Scientist use this law to determine the…

Each trust is like a step you must take to protect the animal kingdom. Through these trusts, a human’s cruelty can be transformed into compassion for all living beings. The authors want us to respect the interconnection through all living species. Every day humans harm the natural world more, without realizing the damage they are causing. The purpose of The Ten Trusts is to change your perspective on how we live on this planet. The authors want you to follow these trusts so the natural world…

extraordinary feature that makes humans different from many species, including our closest cousins, the chimpanzee. When bipedalism came to be remained a mystery that prevented archaeologists, like me to fully understand evolution. Many believed that this trait evolved much later in terms of the timeline of human evolution, but this evidence contradicts this popular theory. Bipedalism is a trait that evolved and nearly perfected…

Lab report 3 At first glance it may appears unbelievable, because human bipedalism is such a key evolutionary innovation. Few characteristics of being human have engrossed such intense debate than the fact that, distinct from many other living mammals, humans walk upright on two legs. Unlike the quadrupedal primates, bipedal primates are sluggish, clumsy, and particularly unbalanced and disposed to to falls and injury. In spite of the negatives characteristics, bipedalism has allowed humans to…

climate, predators, or competition for food. These organisms tend to survive and reproduce in greater numbers than the other fraction of their species. This guarantees that the prolongation of those favorable traits is continued to subsequent generations. Charles Darwin believed that organisms survived through the process of natural selection. Some species of animals and plants can effectively adapt by meeting the requirements of their natural habitat.…

How to grow Sarracenia Pitcher plant from seed. In order to grow a Sarracenia pitcher plant from seed, you need to have time, and patience. Sarracenia has to be watered with rain or purified water every day or every other day. Never allow the soil to get dry, but you also never want your plant to sit in water. Too much water can make a plant mold causing it to die, or be very difficult to take care of. Sarracenia is a carnivorous plant. Therefore it likes soil with little to no nutrients. The…

The calendars mark 2100. Another year closer to the end. Outside the temperature is 113℃, the usual for July in Dallas. In the news, reports about the decrease in freshwater availability has become the norm. Various animals have gone extinct, plants are unable to thrive in any country because of extreme droughts, and the population has began to decline steadily all over the world. A few scientists shared their ideas on how to keep humanity from vanishing. But many know that the end of the Earth…

conservation aims to take off the blindfold on modern society and open their eyes to the way they abuse the things that single handed us give us life. Our buildings, transportation systems, energy use, and production methods all affect the many animal species and ecosystems that provide us with necessities from the natural world. Without genuine concern for animal welfare/extinction, we are jeopardizing environmental growth for ecosystems, potentially destroying food chains that could make…

One of the five agents of microevolution is natural selection. It influences changes in gene frequencies in a population. Natural selection is defined as a process in which there is a competition to pass on genes. In natural selection, some traits are more favoured than other traits. This may result in changes in a population. The favoured traits become more common compared to the traits that are not favoured. The favoured traits are based upon on the environmental conditions. When certain…
