Many developments of new vaccines can arguably be considered the biggest advancement in the history of medicine. Outbreaks and plagues of diseases like polio and smallpox, horribly diminished populations all around the world before breakthroughs in science developed immunizations to impede these epidemics and, in some cases, eradicate them all together. I would like to…
Alternative energy sources are the future. As people begin to understand the harmful effect of pollution caused by the use of fossil fuels, and the rapid depletion of the Earth’s natural resources, people are turning to energy sources that are both environmentally friendly and easily replenishable. A few of these alternative energy sources includes solar…
I will be focusing my paper on air pollution. Air pollution has many contributing factors to it, many of the factors are of what we use in a normal day of life. The air is polluted by anything that exerts of smoke or gases of combustion. Any car that releases carbon monoxide out of the…
Air Pollution has become an increasingly dangerous problem in the United States and around the world. Especially since so many things influence the amount of pollution we are putting into our air. We drive cars around every day, as well as run our factories every day all day long. Not to mention the home products…
Biological warfare is the intentional use of micro-organisms, and toxins, generally of microbial, plant or animal origin to produce disease and death in humans, livestock and crops. The attraction of bio-weapons in war, and for use in terrorist attacks is attributed to easy access to a wide range of disease-producing biological agents, to their low…
Sharks were discovered more than 200 million years ago. There are many different families and groups of sharks. My research paper is about the diversity of sharks. Some things that I’m going to write about are the different breeds of sharks, their diet, their habitat, what makes them all similar and what makes them different…
In the early 1900″s, African honey bees were taken from South Africa and introduced to the European honey bee. African honey bees are known for their aggressiveness but are great producers of honey. Scientists believed that by interbreeding the two they would create the perfect honey bee that would produce more honey. Unfortunately, these hybrid…
Marcellus Shale, the mineral rock hailed to be our savior from dependence on foreign countries for oil & gas might not exactly be the great solution we thought it was; for many reasons. The process that retrieves the shale gas is known as fracking. Fracking is when a hole is drilled into the ground to…
Genetically modified organism also known as “GMO” are living organisms whose genetic makeup has been altered using engineered techniques to produce products with resistant genes. This processes is done by splicing the DNA structure of an organism and replacing the new resistant strands of DNA. This allows plants to have resistance to bugs, frost, viruses…
The physical relationship of the Direwolf and the modern-day grey wolf is apparent, but how closely related are they? It is my plan to shed light on extinct apex predator. I will talk about the physical anatomy, proposed hunting methods and impact they would have on today’s biomes. Many people have noticed the increased size…
