... alive when and only when a human being has fully developed? If this is true, then most of here are not alive. The human specie is only fully grown at adulthood, many of us here are not adults yet -- and by that definition, it wouldn't matter if your shot and killed on the street because "your not fully developed". We are a stage in development -- teenager -- just like a child is, just like a toddler is, just like an old man is, and just like a aborted child is. There is no magical transformation that occurs when a child is born. He has the same basic needs to survive before he is born, and the same needs after he is born. The negative is going to attempt to mak ...
... have shown that 50 percent of all Americans have had at least one lucid dream in their life that they could recall (Lucid Dreaming 365). When a dreamer becomes lucid there are physical changes on the outside of the body and brain patterns also change. There are usually pauses in breathing and changes in heart rate. The amount of brain activity is more heightened than that of a regular dream, but less than when waking. It has also been observed that a person having a lucid dream shows more brain activity than a waking person under the influence of hallucinogenic drugs such as LSD (Lucid Dreaming 364). A lucid dream is usually provoked by an earlier day of h ...
... in Africa is large and expanding. 2.RISK GROUP AND MODE OF TRANSMISSION Studies in the U.S.A. have retentified five groups of adults at risk for developing AIDS. The case distribution in these groups are as follows: (1). Homosexuals or bisexual males constitute the largest group, about 60% of the reported cases. This includes 5% who were intravenuous drug as well. (2). Intravenous drug users with no previous history of homosexuality compose the next largest group, about 23% of all patients. (3). Hemophiliacs (the people who have inborn disease characterized by excesssive bleeding and occuring only in males) especially those who received factor VIII concentrate be ...
... or too poor to take care of the child. The child is usually malnourished, has no medical care, and gets very little attention or love. The foster care system isn't any better. Only a small percentage of the children are adopted by suitable parents. But the rest remain in the foster care system, where there is little or no personal care. In both cases, the child has a poor education because of the lack of attention and discipline. He grows up to be unproductive individual or a menace to society. Many get involved in drugs and crimes. These individuals are also very violent, lacking morality due small amount of care they received themselves. In the long r ...
... they often stop taking the drug. Just because the symptoms have disappeared it does not mean the disease has gone away. Prescribed drugs should be taken until all the medicine is gone so the disease is completely finished. If it is not, then this will just give the bacteria some time to find a way to avoid the effects of the drug. One antibiotic that will always have a long lasting effect in history is penicillin. This was the first antibiotic ever to be discovered. Alexander Fleming was the person responsible for the discovery in 1928. In his laboratory, he noticed that in some of his bacteria colonies, that he was growing, were some clear spots. He realized ...
... commonly practiced are mind-body interventions, alternative systems of medical practice and herbal medicine. I became interested in alternative medicine after show on a news program like 20/20 or Dateline. I thought it would be interesting to find our what other sources there are for help when I am ill. Alternative medicine twenty years ago was an obscure term. Only 5 to 10 years ago, most physicians would have dismissed alternative medicine as a fad that was perhaps a remnant of the 60's pop culture. An article in American Family Physician, stated that a survey in 1990 which was reported in the New England Journal of Medicine in 1993 revealed that 34% of A ...
... is when you can no longer control your attitude and it boils over resulting in massive hysteria. Also shrinking of the male reproductive organ. Later in life the pecks will start to look more like breasts. In women they will be basically taking the hormone they lack to be a man, so their voice deepens, body hair develops. They start to look more like a man. Some studies show that the only reason why athletes use steroids is to help stay injury free, to heal, to make themselves look better and to help in their sports. The amount of testosterone that the body makes is very small amounts. Males have twenty to sixty times the testosterone than females. L ...
... in the stomach wall. Eventually, the the churning action moves food out of the stomach and into the small intestine. The lever contributes to this digestive process by secreting into the small intestine, a liquid called bile. The pancreas secretes pancreatic juice which further aids in dissolving food. The small intestine undergoes continual muscular contractions called peristalses. This action pushes food into the large intestine. This surface of the small intestine has a large number of threadlike projections called villi. The digested, liquified food is absorbed through the villi, and passes into capillaries that are inside the villi. Now the food is in ...
... shapes of viruses. The tobacco mosiac, adenovirus, influenza virus, and t-even bacteriophage are each examples of a different virus structure. Each individual protein subunit composing the capsid is a capsomere. The tobacco mosiac virus has a helical capsoid and is rod shaped. The adenovirus is polyhedral and has a protein spike at each vertex. The influenza virus is made of a flexible, helecal capsid. It has an outer membranous enevelope that is covered with glycoprotein spikes. The T-even bacteriophage consists of a polyhedral head and a tail. The tail is used to inject DNA into a bacterium while the head stores the DNA. Basic life is ...
... and heart disease. It has also been established that people with low levels of beta-carotene in their blood have a higher incidence of heart disease and cancer, particularly lung cancer. The National Cancer Institute endorsed a study which found that women who consume lots of beta-carotene rich fruits and vegetables have a lower chance of getting cancer, including breast cancer. The Institution says that regularly eating lots of fruits and vegetables plays a key roll in cancer prevention, but whether the preventative action comes from beta-carotene or other nutrients in the produce has yet to be determined. For people who don't like eating their fruits and v ...
