Thought experiment

can use the scientific method to better understand. Learning the steps of the scientific method will help them with the numerous experiments we will do throughout the year. Knowing first off to identify the problem, then to ask a question following up by doing research will follow them throughout life experiences. They then can make a hypothesis, and conduct experiments, following up by collecting and analyzing data. Drawing their conclusion and sharing their results concludes the scientific…

Henoildo is a very bright, intelligent young man. He has always demonstrated advanced progression in the different academic areas. He loves science and working on various experiments. I have signed him up for various science camps to encourage him to continue with his learning. Another area Henoildo loves is music. His musical intelligence is quite impressive and he is advanced in reading and playing music. He plays in the school orchestra band and jazz band. Over the past few years he…

Hope Jahren’s memoir, Lab Girl, tells of her courageous journey to becoming an award-winning scientist. Throughout her book, she tells personal accounts of her trials and struggles she had to conquer to become as successful as she is. She discusses her battles with depression and bipolar disorders, along with the harsh comments because she is a female becoming a prosperous scientist. Through all her trials, she speaks of always knowing she belongs in a lab. Science and any form of spirituality…

unsuccessful in clinical studies because experimenters cannot precisely predict how tests on animal species will perform in people, according to laboratory and animal studies. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration admits that more than half of their experiments involving animals result in the trash because the difficulty of handling with animals are producing false information. Animal testing is unpredictable because the condition of each individual animal and species will vary. Clearly,…

When a scientist decides to test the limits of the human condition, the ethicality and basis of the experiment are called into question. The main character and scientist Aylmer from the short story “The Birthmark” has such questions directed against him by the readers and modern societies. The question of whether or not his methods were ethical relies in the compliance of his subject of experimentation, his wife Georgiana, and in this case his subject agrees to whatever methods he deems…

Method Participants Participants will be 90 undergraduate students from a Northeastern university. There will be 45 men and 45 women, between the 18-25 years of age. The experimenter will ask students on the university campus if they would participate in a study on music preferences. The participants will be randomly assigned to one of three conditions involving different aspects of prosocial music. There will be 30 participants in each condition. Materials The song Help! by the Beatles will…

Medical Research vs Animal Testing The harmful use of animals in experiments is not only cruel but also ineffective. Animal research is a serious action against innocent animals. "Animals used in experiments are commonly subjected to force feeding, forced inhalation, food and water deprivation, prolonged periods of physical restraint, the infliction of burns and other wounds to study the healing process, the infliction of pain to study its effects and remedies, and killing by carbon dioxide…

different problems. The horse would choose the answer for the owner’s problem or could not answer the computation problem at all. When scientists have two theories that appear to be equally possible, the parsimony principle is used. This principle encourages scientists to choose the simpler theory with fewer conceptual relationships to be preferred. In addition, scientists have learned to look for facilitated communication cues as was the case in an autism studies by Faith in 1989 and 1993…

I hypothesized that segment one, the part containing the head and mouth, would be the most susceptible to such stimulation. The results of my experiment support my hypothesis. The reason why segment one is the most sensitive is because earthworms don’t have eyes so they need to use mechano and photoreceptors to perceive light and touch this is known as dermal light sensitivity. Dermal sensitivity…

when a live animal undergoes a test or experiment for research purposes. Some common animals that are affected or used in animal testing are rabbits, hamsters, guinea pigs and, cats. I was familiar with animal testing, but not all the animals affected by it. Most cases claim to be mild but can and have shown to have caused the animal's pain and suffering, most animals end up being killed after being experimented on or even reused on different tests and experiments. In order to protect our…
