Reproduction

Cloning may be considered an extremely taboo topic to talk about. This is because of having fear in the unknown. What many people do not understand about the topic of cloning is it is not a perfected science. Cloning has so much potential to do well and help our society if people would just allow it to blossom into more of a perfected science. If people would just allow it to do so, and not base its future off of the unsuccessful experiments that it had it had in its beginning, then we could…

The intention of this systematic review of literature is to evaluate the validity of chiropractic as a specific tool in the management of infertility. The challenge in all of this is not only to understand the role of vertebral subluxation on fertility but to understand infertility as a whole. Epidemiology Infertility is defined as the failure to reproduce after twelve months of unprotected sexual intercourse. It is estimated that between 50 and 80 million couples of childbearing age are…

Chimpanzees live in fission-fusion groups in which individuals form subgroups that are fluid and flexible (Goodall 1968). Females are the dispersing sex in chimpanzees (Pusey 1980); thus, there is low variation in the degree of relatedness between females in the same community, and the majority of female-female bonds will not be closely related (Vigilant et al. 2001). Most female chimpanzees emigrate at adolescence, between nine and 14 years old (Nishida et al. 2003). Inbreeding avoidance…

A Feministic View on Infertility Treatment “To be Infertile refers to an inability to conceive after having regular unprotected sex. Infertility can also refer to the biological inability of an individual to contribute to conception, or to a female who cannot carry a pregnancy to full term” (Nordquist). There are a number of reasons why women can have a hard time getting pregnant. Some of which include age, timing, problems in your cervix or uterus, ovaries that don 't release eggs regularly,…

generated, enhancing a population’s ability to survive and adapt to changes in the environment. It decreases the chances of pathogens and predators to decrease the working ability and efficiency of a population, and hence facilitate the survival and reproduction of the species (Koeniger, 1990). For example, if a drone was immune to a particular pathogen, or able to outcompete other drones for resources, it would be able to survive and continue to reproduce and contribute its successful genes to…

Because God always existed in reality and understanding, created the universe and things in the universe, God is also the Intelligent Designer (will use Creator as a shorter term). If something exists, it has an intended purpose because it was created by God, who neither requires or needs a purpose to exist nor to have a purpose for things to exist. All things that exist or will exist in the universe were created by God for a puipose. Whether a specific or undefined purpose is irrelevant to…

John Endler conducted two studies documenting the relationship between guppy coloration patterns in correlation to predation and sexual selection. Endler (1980) references his previous field study (Endler, 1978) in regards to coloration patterns present in the presence and absence of different predators. The relationship that was found there (Endler, 1978) was that in areas of high predation, coloring was less conspicuous and more closely blended to their background, whereas in areas of low…

The year 1991 marked a major milestone in the history of the world because the internet officially went public. It is hard to believe that in 1991 anyone could ever imagine the importance the internet would play in the vast majority of American citizens lives. Today, the internet is available on computers, laptops, cell phones, tablets, televisions, and just about any electronic you can think of. The internet is readily available whenever someone wants to use it and has access to do so. With the…

Human cloning Human cloning is the process of creating a genetically identical individual, based on a model. Cloning can occur naturally or as an artificial process. The human created, do not emerge from sexual reproduction. First of all one needs to get to know what forms of cloning exist, in order to discuss the question if cloning humans in our real world society is rather something to be in favour of, or to refuse. Cloning can be differentiated in reproductive cloning, which aim it is to…

The Strawberry Poison-Dart Frog (Dendrobates pumilio, as well as, Oophaga pumilio) are very small, slender, dioecious, bilateral symmetric ("Poison frogs", 2003; Sandmeier, 2001; Savage, 2002; Penner 2011, n.p.) creatures that normally reach 17-24 mm in length with four, digits on their hands and feet. These frogs have dark eyes and their skin is very dewy with a gleamy appearance (Penner 2011, n.p.) and tend to vary in colors –strawberry-red, yellow, white, green, orange all mostly with black…
