The Creation Of The Universe
1817 Words - 7 Pages

.... as children. Perhaps it is because we live in a nation filled with many peoples of different beliefs whose Gods are all so varied and different that it is difficult to fathom that they are all the same divine being. It is also plausible that we just have a desire to quench the thirst for knowledge that lies deep within ourselves. As for myself, I cannot believe in a being which created a universe and a multitude of worlds in a rather short period of time then deigns to lower itself into becoming a puppet-master and "pulling the strings" of the Earth and all of the people therein. Since this paper touches upon many scientific terms, I feel that in order for the re ....


Chacma Baboon
340 Words - 2 Pages

.... in some way. The structure on the also helps them in some way. It has strong limbs which makes it able to swing from tree branches. Males way up to 90 pounds so it needs strong limbs. It also has canine teeth because they are carnivorous. The canine teeth are also used to defend themselves and their families. They can put a deep wound in a predator. The also has very strong legs, like us, so it is able to walk on two legs. This means it can walk on two legs and swing from branches whenever needed. It has small pouches in it’s cheeks so it can store excess food when needed. There are many other facts about the . They are highly intelligent like humans and other ....


History Of The Aircraft Propeller
1521 Words - 6 Pages

.... machine that had two airscrews, one for propulsion and the other for sustaining flight. The idea of using an airscrew for propulsion was utilized during the late 1700's to early 1800's. Only after experimentation did the inventors conclude that more propulsive power could be obtained by merely straightening out the surface of the airscrew blades. Attempts to utilize the "straight blade" propeller were made by balloonists. These contraptions were quite strange and hardly fulfilled their purpose of actually propelling the balloon. The basic propeller had evolved from the simple concepts of da Vinci, and was slowly becoming an effective means of aerial propulsion. To reach the ....


Nuclear Waste Management
1179 Words - 5 Pages

.... of radionuclides were released into the atmosphere. Some of the radiation spread across northern Europe and into Great Britain. Soviet statements indicated that 31 people died because of the accident, but the number of radiation-caused deaths is still unknown. The same deadly radiation that was present in this explosion is also present in spent fuels. This presents special problems in the handling, storage, and disposal of the depleted uranium. When nuclear fuel is first loaded into a reactor, 238U and 235U are present. When in the reactor, the 235U is gradually depleted and gives rise to fission products, generally, cesium (137Cs) and strontium (90Sr). These waste ma ....


Where Do We Draw The Line?
1239 Words - 5 Pages

.... but was able to grow an entirely new nose from scratch just by attaching the forming skin cells and DNA to his forehead and sewing the newly grown nose back to his face. This brought to mind an article I had recently read about the dangers of scientific some advancements. Coincidentally, the article was called, “Brave New Worlds”. It stated that “Developments in the field of genetics offer the possibility of bringing all life processes under control. We must step carefully into this vast new field of science with the understanding that putting a patent on the melanoma gene or the baldness gene for that matter is simply playing God in a potentially dangerous way ....


Pollution And The Environment
767 Words - 3 Pages

.... is far too common these days for a lot of animals. Today, we have about half of the animals we did a long time ago. A big reason is due to pollution. These animals’ homes are taken away because of the trash content everywhere. It is not fair to these animals whose food and shelter always gets contaminated. When these animals get killed, it breaks a part of the food chain. If an animal is taken out of the chain, the other animals that eat that one will go hungry, therefore killing them off too. Contaminated food has already happened to the food humans eat. For example, the Mad Cow Disease. This disease slowed the beef market down and it is easily happening in the othe ....


The Importance Of Insects
508 Words - 2 Pages

.... as would the most of the living Earth. Insects, primarily bees, gather pollen as food for themselves, but in doing so, great amounts of pollen collects on their hairy legs and body and it is transferred to a female structure and more plants are on the way. Many plants rely on insects so greatly that they have evolved around them. None of the vibrant colors in the garden were created for your pleasure, nor was the smell of such plants as the roses, in actuality these beauteous pieces of nature we call flowers use sight and smell as attractants for the bees. Plants advertise themselves to who they want to be pollinated by. For instance, some plants such as the honeysuckle an ....


Global Warming
2521 Words - 10 Pages

.... and analyzing the data in a way that shows the connections and their magnitudes. Human population can be closely estimated and the consequences of their activities can be measured. For example, the volume of carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide emissions is an indicator of human's energy and resource consumption. An examination of population size, atmospheric concentrations of these gases and global temperature relative to time and with respect to each other is presented here to demonstrate the relations among these factors. POPULATION GROWTH Many of us have seen linear graphs of human population showing the enormous growth in the last two centuries. However ....
