Cloning 5
... in which a strand of DNA from one organism with the egg cell of another which creates a genetically matched life form. The actual merging process between the cells is called Nuclear Transfer. In this process the nucleus of one donor cell is removed and placed into a lab dish and starved of nutrients; it is then placed into a lab dish with a fertilized egg cell. Naturally, the cell that was starved will try to fuse with the healthy cell but it will need a little help. These two cells are then electrified thereby causing the two cells to fuse together combining their genetic structures. ...

Acid Rain
... are manufactured many chemicals are
used to create it. However because of the difficulty and cost of properly
disposing of these products they are often emitted into the atmosphere with
little or no treatment.
The term was first considered to be important about 20 years ago when
scientists in Sweden and Norway first believed that acidic rain may be causing
great ecological damage to the planet. The problem was that by the time that the
scientist found the problem it was already very large. Detecting an acid lake is
often quite difficult. A lake does not become acid over night. It happens over a
period of ...

Anabolic Steroids
... alone do not make muscles grow. They only aid in muscle growth. Steroids basically speed up muscle repair and slow down the body’s natural tendency to break down muscle. Popular media has insinuated to the public about horror stories and the dangers. If they are so dangerous then why do doctors prescribe them? Why do pharmacies all over the planet still make them and sell them?
To have an opinion on whether steroids are safe are not, it would help to know how they work and what responsibilities are needed when choosing to take them.

Mans Discovery Of Fossil Fuels Could Be His Downfall. Discus
... the use of domesticated animals. Steam engines were used in steam locomotives, steam tractors and steam ships (B.Nebel and R.Wright 1995). Stationary steam engines were rapidly established in all the major industries. The major fuel for steam engines was firewood. By the end of the 1800’s, the demand for energy was ever increasing and firewood around industrial centres was becoming scarce. This led to a switch to coal as the major source for fuel and energy. As well as powering steam engines coal became widely used for heating, cooking and industrial processes.
Air pollution during the Industrial revolution ...

Global Warming 3 -
... are taking place. People are conducting an inadvertent global experiment by changing the face of the entire planet. We are destroying the ozone layer, which allows life to exist on the Earth’s surface. All of these activities are unfavorably altering the composition of the biosphere and the Earth’s heat balance. If we do not slow down our use of fossil fuels and stop destroying, the forests, the world could become hotter than it has been in the past million years. Average global temperatures have risen 1 degree Fahrenheit over the last century. If carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases continue to s ...

Fetal Alcohol Syndrome And Fetal Alcohol Effects
... attention deficit disorders with hyperactivity, decreased adipose tissue, and other identifiable facial features. Additionally, 20% to 50% of affected children demonstrate a variety of other birth defects, including cardiac anomalies, hemangiomas, and eye and ear anomalies. [2,4,15,16]
Even in the absence of growth retardation or congenital abnormalities, children born to women
who drank alcohol excessively during pregnancy appear to be at increased risk for attention deficit
disorders with hyperactivity, fine-motor impairment, and clumsiness as well as more subtle delays in
motor performance and speech disorder ...

Color Blindness
... by two types of receptor cells in the retina called rods and cones do to their shape. The cones are responsible for converting the color. Each cone contains visual pigments that are sensitive to one of three wavelengths of light: red, green and blue. Normally, all colors of the spectrum are able to be matched by mixtures of only three color sensitivities. Therefore, the huge variety of colors we see are a response to different compositions of wavelengths
of light. The rods are responsible for encoding white and black.

Cold Fusion
... the merging of two dissimilar metal hydrides. The process is exothermic, and can generate energy in one of two ways. Energy can be input in to a system and multiplied, or energy alone can be generated although in a much smaller amount. For example, one watt of energy can be input and 3 watts recovered. Some systems are capable of producing hundreds of watts per individual watt. The actual physics of the reaction is not completely understood. Some claim it is merely a chemical reaction not yet understood, while others are convinced it is a nuclear reaction.
One example is a cell which used .04 grams of met ...

Research And Patterns Of Thinking
... when I had to decide which college I would attend. This is research that just about everyone must do in some form or another. This took a lot of time researching, as there are so many to choose from. I also wasn't real sure of where to begin. I decided to begin with location and money, which are important when deciding a college. Next I decided to visit the few I singled out which greatly helped me choose this for my education. Next I had to perform and even harder task, choosing a major. It's very difficult to decide what you want to do with the rest of your life in just a short time. I had the plans of wor ...
