Inventions Benefited Society
Number of words: 463 - Number of pages: 2.... our lives easier.
Computers in telecommunications have allowed us to do many things from the comfort of our homes
that could never be done before; such as talking with distant friends and relatives, buying merchandise, doing
research, and a steadily increasing number of other things. At nearly any time of day we can buy something with
a credit card, or fill out a form with personal information such as a loan application, job application or insurance
form. Years ago, sending this amount of personal data was impossible. Now, with the advances of computer
technology, we can do what .....

The Creation Of The Universe
Number of words: 193 - Number of pages: 1.... that Osiris Khepera
created himself out of a dark, boundless ocean called "Nu". Then out of this
ocean, he created the universe. I will be writing about these theories: The Big
Bang theory is what most people believe, also there is a theory called "Steady
State", which is the opposite of the Big Bang theory. There is the theory of an
"Oscillating Universe", which is sort of a compromise between the Big Bang
theory, and the Steady State theory. There is also the religious theory, in
which God created everything.
There are a lot of different theories regarding the creation of the
universe .....

Darwinism: The Theory That Shook The World
Number of words: 1800 - Number of pages: 7.... world as well as the public and was able to convince many in the
presence of a misguided past belief. This fact alone makes him one of the most
important people of science ever.
Charles Darwin was born in Shrewsbury-Shropshire, England on Feb 12,
1809 (GEA & RBi p 42). He was the fifth child in a wealthy English family with
a history of scientific achievement with his paternal grandfather Erasmus Darwin
who was a physician and a savant in the eighteenth century (GEA & RBi p 42). As
a young boy Darwin already showed signs of his love for nature. When he was not
reading about nature and .....

Monarch Butterflies Coevolution With Milkweed
Number of words: 572 - Number of pages: 3.... forms its cocoon on the Butterfly Weed. By the time the caterpillar is ready to become a chrysalis it has grown to be about 45 millimeters in length. The chrysalis is pale green and spotted with gold. It becomes more transparent as the butterfly gets ready to break free. The adult Monarch has a wingspan of about 4 inches. The male and female can be told apart by a gland on the wings. It is apparent as a black circle on the male, which is not present in the female. The Monarch is native to North and Central America. The plant and its pollinator have grown to depend on each other.

Human Cloning

Eugenics
is accomplished through a field of science known as eugenics, which basically is an attempt to improve the human race. Advances in eugenics have only helped mankind in pushing forward to a greater civilization, a more perfect evolution (Silberner, 5). When new innovations in science are not encouraged but prohibited, they inevitably change into an undercover procedure. is already pro .....

Chemistry
Number of words: 316 - Number of pages: 2.... fed and drunk by those who go through hunger. As acid
contained in the human body, I digest food and clean out wastes. I am a
desperate hope for a cure, yet poison, slowly spreading in the air and along the
land. I am the colorful fireworks "sprocketed" across the dark sky when the
touch of two soft lips are gently pressed together. I am the warm tears
trickling slowly down a child's face when the thought of going to school all
alone crosses his mind. I am te pure exhilaration every time two people fall in
love. I am rubbed roughly against a filthy body and massaged along a baby's butt.

Euthanasia And Suicide
Number of words: 10462 - Number of pages: 39.... normative obligations to society. I want to integrate both Durkheim’s egoistic type of suicide, which applies to those that are inadequately integrated into society, and Tittle’s defiance category
of deviance. I believe that both show a lack of social integration can increase the likelihood of suicide, and active euthanasia by those that lack coping skills, suffer from depression, have mental problems, and no longer value life. The lack of attachment to society and withdrawal from active participation in social relationships or social positions, which can increase the likelihood of .....

The Keys To Unlocking Transitions In Water
Number of words: 419 - Number of pages: 2.... by the tides or winds, the fresh water remains at the
surface, resulting in a salinity gradient. Tides force seawater inland as a
countercurrent and produce a saltwater wedge below the freshwater surface waters
(Bellamy 62).
Estuaries are always in a state of change and hardly ever in a steady
state. The principal energy source are tides, causing estuarine mixing, but wind,
wave motions, and river runoff can also be important locally (Braun 45). Salt
water and fresh water mix to form brackish water. The three main estuarine ones—
saltwater, brackish, and freshwater—can shift seasonally .....

DNA

furnish all descendants with protein-synthesis and hence the growth and
development of the organism. So all living things on plant Earth contains the
genetic material DNA and the structure of a DNA molecule or combination of DNA
molecules determines the shape, form, and function of the offspring.
2)The term "genetic technology"(or genetic engineering) is the modification of
the genetic properties of an organism by the use of recombinant DNA technology.
By using this technology it is possible to alert characteristics of livin .....

Religion & Evolution
Number of words: 2360 - Number of pages: 9.... 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 reader to correctly grasp the content I must first define three words: Theory, Law, and Hypothesis. The definitions will allow for a greater understanding of this essay and give us an even ground upon which to begin.
Theory; noun
