James Watson's The Double Helix: A Review
... is the one individual that may have influenced Watson the most in
the discovery. Crick seemed to be a loud and out spoken man. He never was
afraid to express his opinion or suggestions to others. Watson appreciated
Crick for this outspoken nature, while others could not bear Crick because of
this nature. Maurice Wilkins was a much calmer and quieter man that worked in
London at King's College. Wilkins was the initial person that excited Watson on
DNA research. Wilkins had an assistant, Rosalind Franklin (also known as Rosy).
Initially, Wilkins thought that Rosy was supposed to be his assistant in
researching ...

Meth 2
... including the need for food, sleep,
friends, sex, and family. The effects of this drug are long-lasting.
Food and water become unimportant after taking it. Seizures and
death can occur. Meth can cause: angry, hostile, and anxious
feelings, violent behaviors, confusion, mental illness, increased
physical activity, loss of appetite, increased heart rate, inability to
sleep, strokes can occur, chest pain, increased blood pressure,
irregular heart rate, aids and HIV through the use of needles,
dependence, tolerance, addiction, and can cause psychosis.
The use of Meth is going up. In 1995, 3.9% of high s ...

Eucalyptus Trees
... forests of New South Wales. Mountain ash from the Dandenong ranges in Victoria and karri from southwestern Western Australia grow to over 80 metres in height. Around Sydney Harbour, blackbutts once grew as big as a large lounge room Eucalypts seem to be able to grow anywhere. They are found springing out of large cracks in rocks, growing at the edge of sandy dunes in the full force of sea gales, and bent and twisted at the edge of the snow line in the Alps. They are also found in other parts of the world from Ethiopia to Ecuador, from California to Israel. Where eucalypts grow is determined by many environme ...

Pollution And The Environment
... sea life creatures in danger of being killed. Extinction is far too common these days for a lot of animals. Today, we have about half of the animals we did a long time ago. A big reason is due to pollution. These animals’ homes are taken away because of the trash content everywhere. It is not fair to these animals whose food and shelter always gets contaminated. When these animals get killed, it breaks a part of the food chain. If an animal is taken out of the chain, the other animals that eat that one will go hungry, therefore killing them off too. Contaminated food has already happened to the food humans eat. For ...

The Study Of Biology
... limits of the science, however, have always been difficult to determine, and as the scope of biology has shifted over the years, its subject areas have been changed and reorganized. Today biology is subdivided into hierarchies based on the molecule, the cell, the organism, and the population.
Some of the more specific types of biology are as follows: Molecular biology, which has made the most fundamental contributions to modern biology; Cellular biology, which is closely linked with molecular biology. Cellular biology deals with the functions of the cell and the basic strucural unit of living matter; Finally, ...

Dna 4
... just before cell division begins. This process of DNA duplication is known as replication. The hydrogen bond between the base pairs of the 2 nucleotide strands weaken, and the 2 strands break apart. Each strand acts as a template forming a new nucleotide. This is accomplished by the acting of 2 sets of enzymes - DNA helicase enzymes and DNA polymerase enzymes. The DNA helicase enzymes separate the 2 nucleotide strands. The site where the helicase is working and where replication is taking place is known as the DNA fork. The polymerase enzyme helps the nitrogenous base in a given nucleotide to pick up and attach t ...

My Theory Of The Universe
... There are many spots on the walls of the room that are just reflections
off of the disco ball. (Stars) These spots seem to form different patterns on
the walls and move along with the disco ball, but not always at the same rate.
(Constellations) There are two very shy people in the room that sometimes leave
the room. When they are in the room they stand by the walls and always wink for
some reason, so all we can see of them is one of their eyes. (Mercury & Venus)
Then there are three very weird people in the room that are always in the middle
of the room doing the Waltz. They do this some how by themselves ...

Autumn A Magnificent End
... the end of natures yearly cycle, autumn, is approaching is when the leaves begin to change their color and whither. Even though they are changing color because they are dying, that thought is dismissed from the mind because of the beauty in that event which the eye beholds-with humans it should be the same thing. People should not feel sad seeing their elder loved ones change their colors and whither but rather rejoice from the knowledge that they lived a magnificent life and their death is merely the start of a new beginning.
After all the leaves have fallen, and the ground is littered in seas of immense color, ...

Air Pollution
... letting all these gases release into the air, it makes it harder to breathe.
Ozone can cause part of your lungs to close off and make it harder to breathe.
The tall smokestacks used by industries and utilities do not remove pollutants but
simply boost them higher into the atmosphere. These pollutants may then be transported
over great distances, causing adverse effects such as acid rain in areas far from the
emission site. The worldwide increase in the burning of coal and oil since the late 1940s
has led to increasing concentrations of carbon dioxide. The resulting greenhouse effect has
reduced the escape of infra ...

Hubble Space
... that previously blocked our view of very distant objects and revealed a whole new cast of characters. We now have to study them to find out who, what and where they are. We are still finding new frontiers," says Rodger I. Thompson of the University of Arizona in Tucson.
"This is just our first tentative glimpse into the very remote universe," says Alan Dressler of the Carnegie Observatories in Pasadena, CA. "What we see may be the first stages of galaxy formation. But the objects are so faint that their true nature can only be explored with the advanced telescopes of the future."
"This observation is a major s ...
