A lot of researchers predict that if we keep burning a lot of fossil fuels that the ice in Antarctica will continue to melt at a very high speed. Researchers also predict that rest of the ice in the world will melt around the same time as Antarctica, and warm oceans will expand. They also found out that the melting could happen in as little as a thousand years, causing the ocean to rise by about a foot per decade. Researchers found out that if the sea level was to rise about 200 feet it would…

Questions that were raised by the researchers were how to determine how to change the treatment in drug court programs. The study meets the requirements for this course because it is empirical because data were…

Ethics are moral principles and standards of conduct that differentiate between the right and wrong of a person’s behaviour (Cardwell and Flanagan, 2005).

tested the infants in. The dependent variable would be the way that the experimenter interacted with each of the infants. The researchers selected 121 infants who were not born prematurely, which is over 36 weeks gestation, and who did not require medical assistance. The infants were all between the age of three hours old to five days old. The article states that the researchers excluded six infants from the study because of a “lack of a baseline period.” According to the article, the experiment…

according to a new study. Perfect” vaccines have been protecting humans against polio, mumps, measles or smallpox, but it’s the “leaky” ones, which we may have to start worrying about. Imperfect vaccines might pose a threat for future development, researchers found. According to a study published in PLOS Biology, inoculating chickens with a live Marek’s disease virus (MDV) vaccine can lengthen the disease transmission period, allowing stronger strains of the virus to get “fitter” and reach…
