Science and utopiaFor me "Brave new world" is a visionary book that has depicted some of the characteristic of the world today.One example is the genetic engineering of human beings that is becoming more and more a reality .Scientists have created clones of animals and human beings are probably next...

Evolution versus creationism is a hot topic that is in constant debate among scientists and Christians. Held in high regard to the world of science, Evolution, is the theory that groups of organisms change with passage of time, mainly as a result of natural selection, so that descendants differ morp...

Today people go to the super market thinking they are getting good clean healthy products, but instead half of what they are buying has undergone genetic therapy. You pick up a beautiful looking red tomato and you think it has probably been on the vine the longest, but in fact almost all tom...

There are three main courses in school that I enjoy. These courses are Science, Mathematics and Keyboarding. Keyboarding is an informative course that helps to build your typing skills. Keyboarding helps you type in the proper format at a fast pace. It also teaches you computer terms: such as hard d...

A sheep named Dolly, a kitten named Cc, and a monkey named Andi are three different animals which look and act exactly like every other member of their species. However, the way these animals came to exist differs greatly. Dolly, Cc, and Andi were all brought into this world by a controversial techn...

FORENSIC SCIENCE Forensic Science, also known as Forensics, is the application of science to law to interpret clues for crime investigation. The earliest forensic scientists were physicians who were called upon to give an opinion as to the cause of death in individuals. Now most of the forensic ...

I. Description A. Nature of Work Marine Biology also refers to Biological Sciences or Biological Oceanography. Marine Science is the general term for research conducted in oceans and coastal or inland waters connected to the sea. This particular field is probably the best known to the public. Marine...

In today's day and age, absolutely anything can happen, especially in the world of science. Earlier this year, scientists were able to create the first completely cloned healthy cat. This brought to many individuals shock and disbelief. Up until a few weeks ago, the extent of cloning only rea...

The science of biology has evolved to the point today that an animal's basic nature can be quickly and permanently changed by altering its generic structure. The possibilities that the genetic engineering of animals can bring us is endless; from the Harvard-Dupont mouse prone to developing ca...

Can we and should we clone humans? Cloning humans has recently become a possibility that seems much more feasible in today's society than it was twenty years ago. It is a method that involves the production of a group of identical cells or organisms that all derive from a single individual. Changes ...

Cloning Twenty-five years ago, scientists thought that cloning was virtually impossible. In the last five years, the science of cloning, has come to realization. What is a clone? A clone is a duplicate - much like a photocopy is a duplicate, or copy, of a document (Kolate, 238). A good example of co...

Forensics is defined as the aplication of science to interpret clues for crime investigation. The earliest forensic scientists were physicianswho were called upon to give an opinion as to the cause of death in individuals. Now most of the forensic scientists are investigators that pick up clues at...

There are many scientific benefits to cloning. Cloning is defined as the making of a precise copy of a molecule, cell, or individual plan or animal. The scientific benefits of cloning are endless and know no boundaries. The reason that it knows no boundaries is because not all forms of cloning a...

Genetic engineering has opened many doors for new sciences to develop. One suchscience is the research and alteration of the food we eat; this is commonly known astransgenic research. Whether through crops or agricultural animals, the common goal isto increase food surplus. Most of the GM (geneti...

Cloning is a process used to obtain an identical organism asexually. The clone it produces does not only look and think like its donor, its DNA is identical. DNA stands for deoxyribonucleic acid. It is the substance that contains the genetic information for most organisms. In other words, it con...

Modern technology has opened up a gateway from which controversy has emerged: genetic engineering. The history of man has been a long path to immortality. From the first thought of hygiene to the modern idea of genetic engineering, individuals have sought out ways to live longer and healthier lives....

Fear in a Test Tube Cloning, genetically tailoring offspring, and creating the "perfect human" were all advances in science that seemed unattainable yet desirable. People were amazed by the myth of genetically altering DNA, and daydreamed of the day that they themselves could create ano...

Wouldn't it be wonderful to talk to yourself, but wait before you scream at me 'What, are you mad?', think a minute about cloning. Being able to talk to an exact replica of yourself would be exciting, don't you think?, someone who understands your every line of thought, someone who would never ques...

The article I have chosen, entitled "Designer People", covers the issues of designer babies and the melding of man and machine. Both of these issues are very controversial and the article contains arguments for each side in the two topics. Designer babies are a new "fad" that may be up an...

Cloning Cloning is a form of genetic engineering in which the DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) of a person, animal ,plant or bactirium is used to produce a perfect or near perfect genetic replica of the original...meaning a new individual is created from a single cell. Despite its relativaly new int...

According to the American Heritage Dictionary, cloning is to make multiple identical copies of a DNA sequence, to reproduce or propagate asexually. A clone is a group of genetically identical cells descended from a single common ancestor, such as a bacterial colony whose members arose from a single...

Genetic engineering is the scientific alteration of the structure of genetic material in living organisms. This science consists of the reproduction and alteration of humans, animals, plants, and food. It has given humans the power to alter the very basis of life on earth. In other words, it has the...

Genetic Engineering: The FrontierScience is a still somewhat obscure creature that continues to evolve, radically changing the face of mankind perhaps faster than it's creator. The magnificent world of science has witnessed many profound breakthroughs and advances in this past century, but none as n...

An article published on April 25, 1953 in the science journal Nature written by scientists James Watson and Francis Crick, modestly suggested a model for the structure and replication of the DNA (refer to picture 1), the face of science changed forever (Aldridge, 8). The evolution of technology has ...

Send in the Clones It is hard to say if cloning is an answer to a problem or just another problem for the human race. There have been books, movies, and even stories about mankind creating their own species of humans. A good example of what could happen if mankind learns to clone itself is Mar...
