How Technology Effects Modern America
Number of words: 1229 - Number of pages: 5.... supply of workers in the [unskilled
labor] categories already exceeds the demand for their services,” says L.
Mishel, Research Director of Welfare Reform Network.
In view of these facts, I wonder if these trends are good or bad for
society. “The danger of the information age is that while in the short run
it may be cheaper to replace workers with technology, in the long run it
is potentially self-destructive because there will not be enough
purchasing power to grow the economy,” M. B. Zuckerman. My feeling is
that the trend from unskilled labor to highly technical, skilled labor is .....

Extinct Animals Research: Woolly Mammoth
Number of words: 414 - Number of pages: 2.... back a thick
layer of blubber as nutrition when food was not needed.
The problem in keeping a creature such as the Woolly Mammoth in a zoo-
like surrounding would be poachers. Due to the endangerment of such a
magnificent species, poachers of pelts and ivory would most certainly be after
it's huge tusks and thick furs, so it would be necessary to post guards around
it's cage at all times.
A large-scale habitat would be constructed for this creature since,
during the period it lived, the Pleistocene, there were no restrictions on the
places it could roam to. There was nothing stopping this .....

Condor
Number of words: 1212 - Number of pages: 5.... they can take off again. s are fastidious birds -- after eating, they clean their heads and necks by rubbing them on grass, rocks, or tree branches. s also bathe frequently and spend hours preening and drying their feathers.
s were probably never very numerous in North America. The species once ranged along the entire Pacific Coast from British Columbia to Baja California. Fossils have been found as far east as Texas, Florida, and New York. More recently, however, they were confined to a horseshoe-shaped area north of Los Angeles.
For years, no one knew precisely how many California s ex .....

Chemistry: Acid-Base Titration
Number of words: 496 - Number of pages: 2.... in acidic and neutral solutions, but
reddish pink was result in basic solutions. Strong acid (contained H+ ion) and
strong base ( contained OH ) were 100% ionized in water and they were all
strong electrolytes. Procedure:
Part A. Investigating solid NaOH for use as a possible primary standard First of
all, The weight of a weighting paper was measured in analytical balance, then
added two pellets of NaOH and reweighed the total amount of those. At the end of
the lab, reweighed the combination and recorded all results in the lab manual.
Part B. Preparation and standardization of a solu .....

Dna Replication
Number of words: 2173 - Number of pages: 8.... is synthesized in different ways.
The first strand of DNA is built by simply adding nucleotides to its end. This strand grows inward towards the replication fork as the DNA molecule unzips. This strand ends with a hydroxide (OH) group and is called the 3` prime or 3`end. The enzyme that catalyzes this process is called DNA polymerase.
The second strand is built by having a polymerase jump ahead on the strand and fill in the complementary nucleotides backwards. This strand moves in the outward direction, hence away from the replication fork. The DNA polymerase for this strand starts a b .....

Cloning
Number of words: 1931 - Number of pages: 8.... transferring a nucleus from a somatic cell into an
egg cell of which the nucleus had been removed, called nuclear transplantation, is an extension of
research that had been ongoing for over 40 years.
Up until now, scientists thought that adult cells could not be “reprogrammed” to behave
like a fertilized egg and create an embryo, but the evidence obtained by Dolly’s success prove
otherwise. The issues of cloning have been around for a long time, starting with the publication of
Joshua Lederberg’s 1966 article on cloning in the American Naturalist, and the publics interest

A German pathologist named Robert Kock (1843-1910) studied a disease called diptheria. Koch learned htat diptheria bacteria or bacilli could only be found in samples from a patients throat. Although Koch could not understand how diptheria was somehow affecting the victim's heart. Finally, Koch concluded that the bacilli produced a toxin that circulated the bodyand damaged heart cells. Soon Koch developed an a .....

Nutritional Protocol For Inflammation
Number of words: 1078 - Number of pages: 4.... inflammation becomes a limited phenomena. Some conditions such as asthma, allergies, autoimmune diseases, fibromyalgia, migraine headaches, osteoarthritis, peptic ulcers, and psoriasis comprise examples of perpetual or chronic inflammation.(3) It is these chronic conditions, hallmarked by pain and fatigue, that eventually lead to loss of function. The treatment that millions of people turn to each year is Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs (NSAID's). However, long-term therapy has revealed an alarming list of adverse side effects associated with these drugs such as gastroint .....

Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome
Number of words: 736 - Number of pages: 3.... according many factors but mostly to the overall health of the individual. The new advances in technology are helping postpone the advancement of the disease.
Lets start at the beginning. First, lets learn what AIDS is. AIDS is an acquired defect in your immune system. The passing of any bodily fluids could technically be used as a passage way for the virus. Once infected with HIV it will begin to attack your CD4+cells, commonly known as your t-cells or t-helpers and they will begin to drop in numbers. You measure the damage to your immune system by HIV and your ability to fight inf .....
