Throughout the years, many unknown questions have been answered through the use of science. The atomic bomb, which ended World War II, was explored through physics, and other discoveries such as the atom, DNA, and photosynthesis have facilitated technological advancements for society. While all typ...

The article, "The Biologist Who Extends Life Spans", is an interview with biologist Cynthia Kenyon on the subject of extending life spans. She has extended the life span of nematodes, as they had lived for more than 125 days, about six times more than the usual life span of the worms, whic...
Bioethics Paper "Bioethics is the study of the ethical problems arising from scientific advances. This usually is dealt with in the field of biology and medicine," (Webster 1). Bioethical research is beneficial to the prosperity and growth of humans. With advances in the biology field...

The Family Curse Every family has a curse, and mine is no different. My father's bloodline carries PKD: Polycystic Kidney Disease. I did not ask to be born with it, just as my father had not, but genetics had other ideas. This disease has taken my grandfather and my father's health. At the...
The idea of a perfect race was first thought of way back during World War II, by Adolf Hitler. He wanted a nation of tall, healthy, intelligent, blonde-haired humans and these were the beginnings of biological engineering. The experiments carried out on the Jews, in the concentration camps, were utt...
Human Genome Project The Human Genome Project (HGP) is an international 13 year effort that began in October of 1990. The main objective of the project is to map the entire human DNA sequence. The project was planned to last 15 years, but rapid technological advances have moved the completion dat...
LIFE The greater mankind's knowledge becomes, the harder it is to define the idea of life. This difficulty is curious since almost all human beings fell that they know, without any ambiguity, the difference between something alive and something dead. However, our advancing knowledge tells ...
Biology 4th Block Rot Race Lab Report Name: Rot Race Purpose: To see how fast organisms and materials decay under certain conditions. Procedure: We gathered 4 2-liter plastic pop bottles and cut them to assemble the drawing below. Near the bottom we placed a siv to let juices ...
Secrets of a Salty Survivor The Dead Sea is known for its high salt concentration which inhibits life for most organisms. The high salt concentration damages the organism's DNA by depriving the cell from the water they need to keep the structure of its double helix, leading to a faulty DNA s...
Sometime during our lives, we've questioned ourselves at one point just how long has the earth existed and how did life begin? Our Biology book written by: Solomon, Berg, and Martin, shows theories that has taught us that earth is approximately 4.6 billion years old, and the earliest pieces of li...
If there is no variation or it is only acquired, then evolution can not occur. Evolution is described as the gradual change of a species caused by variation in genetics into a new species. Therefore, without variation there is no change to the species, and without change there is no evolution. Al...
Biology Assignment Frederick Griffith is a scientist that was trying to discover a vaccine for pneumonia. The reason for his experiment was to see if injections of heat killed virulent bacteria would kill the mice. He found that the mixture of live non-virulent bacteria and heat-killed bacteria...
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...
Deoxyribonucleic Acid, DNA for short, is a molecule that has been one of the biggest mysteries of modern science. What is its structure? Does it contain the genetic code and if it does how is it used? These are some of the questions that puzzled scientist in the early fifties. Many scientists tried ...
What is the Human Genome Project? To understand the HGP one must know what a genome is. A genome is all the DNA in an organism including its genes. The genes carry information for making all the proteins needed by all organisms. The proteins establish what the organisms look like, how it fights infe...
