... that had the marine institute logo on it so they decided to take a dive. They ended up diving right down to the steel boxes that contained the "White Sharks". The men were curious and so they opened the box. Nothing happened at first and then glowing eyes caught their attention. One guy was killed. The other guy managed to get away and swim for about 200 yards and then he was down. The men's bodies washed up on shored weeks later. That's when Chase and Tall Man knew there was something in the water and it was up to them to figure out what it was. More strange things were happening. The ocean life began to act strange and Chase couldn't figure out what tha ...
... and placed into a lab dish and starved of nutrients; it is then placed into a lab dish with a fertilized egg cell. Naturally, the cell that was starved will try to fuse with the healthy cell but it will need a little help. These two cells are then electrified thereby causing the two cells to fuse together combining their genetic structures. Cloning / 3 Now that we have established the scientific basis of cloning, let me tell you how cloning can directly benefit humanity. There are many health issues that can be avoided, reversed and cured by the cloning of human cells and body parts. With the aid of cloning technology, couples tha ...
... there is a pattern that exists within families from generation to generation. This indicates the possibility that autism is genetically related. However, no gene has been found. Every person with autism is different and there is no set type or typical person with autism. This is because autism is a spectrum disorder, meaning that symptoms and characteristics of the disorder can present themselves in a variety of ways, from mild to severe. Usually children with autism have deficiencies in both verbal and non-verbal communication. Their language develops slowly or not at all and they have very short attention spans. They often lack social skills and will spend ...
... the cell, the organism, and the population. Some of the more specific types of biology are as follows: Molecular biology, which has made the most fundamental contributions to modern biology; Cellular biology, which is closely linked with molecular biology. Cellular biology deals with the functions of the cell and the basic strucural unit of living matter; Finally, population biology became firmly established as a major sub division of biological studies in the 1970’s. This field relates with the study of gene changes in populations, and ecology. Biology also includes the study of humans at the molecular, cellular, and organismal levels. If the focus of e ...
... means that the 15% represents about 4.2 million tons of toxic waste. Toxic wastes, which are dumped in improper sites, can seep into underground water supplies and contaminate huge areas. If the land that is intoxicated supports plant life, most of the plants and trees will die off. If humans occupy the area, it could cause serious illness or death. For example, an area by Niagara Falls (US side) was used during the 1930s by a chemical company to dump its waste. Most of them were hazardous, and the containers that held the chemicals later (after the company had gone out of business) began to leak. The chemicals spread for miles killing off plants and causing c ...
... An atom is made of little things called protons, nuetrons, and electrons. Protons have a positive charge, neutrons have no charge, and electrons have a negative charge. Electrons travel around the center of the atom, which is called the nucleus. Kind of like how Earth revolves around the sun. Protons and nuetrons make up the center of the atom. The atom has an atomic number. Scientists find that number by counting how many protons are in the nucleus. In this case Helium has two protons. Scientists find the average atomic mass by adding up protons and neutrons many times. Then they divide the total by how many times they tried this. This time Helium has an avera ...
... and crop damage in the lower atmosphere. Ozone is formed through the chemical reaction of volatile organic compounds and nitrogen dioxide, in the atmosphere, in the presence of sunlight. This reaction is called a photochemical reaction, because sunlight is required. The product is known as smog. The notorious brownish color of smog is due to nitrogen dioxide of the mixture. Increased temperature stimulate the reaction, which is why ozone conditions are worse in the summer. It is an oxidant, meaning it takes electrons away from other molecules, and disrupts key structures in cells by starting chain reactions. Ozone is a serious national problem. Half of the lar ...
... Mexico, as well as the Caribbean islands of Cuba, Jamaica, and Hispaniola¡¨ (1 Species). These areas provide the perfect climate for these endangered species that have roamed the earth for over 200 million years. Florida is known for its large population of American alligators, which are often confused for the rare American crocodile. However, there are vast differences between the two species. Hunted for their hides and the changing of their habitat to beach front property is slowly pushing the American crocodile out of Florida, the only place it is found in the United States. ¡§For 190 million years before the first humans evolved, huge populations o ...
... in strategy has came to promote nuclear disarmament and prevent the usage of nuclear weapons. The technology of building the atomic bomb has spurred some useful innovations that can be applied through the use of nuclear power. The fear of a potential nuclear attack had been heightened by the media and its release of movies impacting on public opinion and fear of nuclear devastation. The lives lost after the detonation of the atomic bombs have become warning signs that changed global thinking and caused preventative actions. The Atomic Bomb The devastation brought about by the atomic bomb has caused fear among all the people that have realized the potential destruc ...
... them higher into the atmosphere. These pollutants may then be transported over great distances, causing adverse effects such as acid rain in areas far from the emission site. The worldwide increase in the burning of coal and oil since the late 1940s has led to increasing concentrations of carbon dioxide. The resulting greenhouse effect has reduced the escape of infrared radiation from the earth, causing a possible global warming trend. The Prevention of Air Pollution To cut down on all the pollution being released into the air, we have removed the pollutant before materials are used, removed the pollutant after it is formed, or altered the process to lower p ...
