There is much debate on if animals have feelings and if they contain the amount of intellect to have abilities much like our own. I say animals do have feeling and abilities not very different from us humans. According to Rifkin, animals show empathy toward a passing of their own. Rifkin emphasizes this by taking a look at how, “Elephants will often stand next to their…

However, Dr. Elias Zerhouni stands at a completely different viewpoint. In his words, “The problem is that animal testing hasn’t worked, and it’s time we stopped dancing around the problem.” That is why the world’s most forward-thinking scientists have moved on to develop and use methods for studying diseases and testing products that replace animals and are actually relevant to human health. Modernised, improved methods now include sophisticated tests using human cells and tissues…

According to Johann Hari on his talk in TEDx, addiction is caused by isolation. To come up with his conclusion, he met with different people from different parts of the world and shared an experiment done by Professor Bruce Alexander. In his experiment, he put a rat in a cage with two water bottles, one of which had drugs. The rat chose the one with drugs, but Professor Alexander realized that the cage was empty and this could have affected the results. When he included other aspects in the cage…

After he went through genetic testing, it was found that he had split hand/foot malformation type 1 which involves mutations in genes DLX5, DLX6, and DSS1, all located on chromosome 7 (van Silfhout, et al. 2009; and Elliott, Reed, Roscioli,…

mosquito landed on the dinosaur and sucked out its blood soon after that it would have landed on a tree and got stuck in some sap. Which leaves the mosquito perfectly preserved for the scientists to use later on. They also added the DNA from other animals to complete the code. Once the set was…

To start off with the monkey in the beginning of the film really made me think because at first glance it was so strange. I feel the purpose of the dead monkey in the film was to make the audience think. It was so strange it made me think because it just didn’t fit in the story at the first look unless they were going for some kind of David Lynch thing on just throwing something in the story that is weird just for the sakes of being different and strange. (Yes I know the movie was made way…

that unlike diverse forms of sports, hunting is dicey for the whole community, yet not just participants. In article two, it explains a different type of injury, injuries directed toward animals. In the text, there is an entire section labeled “Pain and Suffering”.

Since the dawn of time, humans have practiced the right to hunt whitetail deer to control the deer’s population growth rate. However, animal rights groups and pacifists alike are trying to take that right away from the American people. Not only does hunting have an enormous impact on the American lifestyle, but also gives the common people (including myself) a chance to observe and help maintain the wildlife and its environment. Recently, those opposed to this idea have started to conduct…

Is it morally wrong to smoke around your young child? I am lucky enough to have lived on this earth for forty-seven years. My parents raised me with no interference from the courts, and I am fine. I take issue with the court’s invading our lives and homes beyond what their role is in our society. Government’s role is to protect us from those who wish to harm us. The government should protect our right to live, and the government should protect our liberties. The government has no right to invade…

Case Study 1 1. Feliway is a synthetic analogue of the F3 fraction of the feline facial familiarisation pheromone, administered as a spray or as a plug-in diffuser (Bowen & Heath, 2005). Pheromones are detected by the vomeronasal organ, binding to pheromone-binding proteins in the olfactory tract, altering affective state via limbic system stimulation (Landsberg et al., 2013). Feliway diffusers provide reassurance to cats in stressful situations and decrease stress-related behaviours such as…
