Humans have been interested in trying to clone animals that have gone extinct. Jurassic Park is a movie series based on what happens when a scientist did manage to clone these extinct creatures. The DNA of a woolly mammoth has recently been found, and now the discussion of cloning has been back in the media. This has become an important topic that society needs to think about now that technology has continued to advance. Bringing back extinct creatures could become a reality, not just science fiction

For this lab only two inheritance patterns were focused on: dominance and codominance. Human blood has more than two alleles (ABO) for the gene. It has three alleles. A and B are codominant and O is recessive. With each combination of human blood alleles, there are only 4 types of blood (Type A, Type B, Type AB, and Type O). The distinction in the blood types are due to the existence or lack of certain types of

There is one reason that I believe that the species have changed over the years. I think that the different biomes changes each organism. Each organism lives in a slightly different environment making them evolve. Species 2 lives in a forest where their webbed feet allow them to climb up trees to catch their food. Species 3 lives in a swamp and that evolved them to have a full shell around them to protect them from fish. Their sharp claws also allow them to catch onto small fish to eat. Species

Evolution plays a major part in today; it provides a vast amount of information of the reproduction of animals and organism. Evolution is the process of which different kinds of living organisms are believed to have developed from recent and earlier forms during the history and past of the earth. There are many theories of evolution from many different scientists but the two most well-known theories are by Charles Darwin and Jean Baptise Lamarck. Charles Darwin: Charles Darwin was born in 1809

One study that I came across examined the effects of climate change on ectothermic species, due to the fact that they constitute a vast amount of biodiversity and are potentially vulnerable to climate change because their basic physiological functions are influenced by temperature (Deutsch et al 2007). There have been many studies that examined how temperature impacts insect’s intrinsic rate of population growth (Frazier 2006). This study used data from previous studies to construct fitness curves

On March 1925, the state of Tennessee passed the Butler Act, the nation’s first law that made it punishable by law to teach evolution. The ACLU, which only formed five years prior was determined to defend any teacher willing to challenge this law; Such a teacher, was a young Biologist at Dayton High School, John T. Scopes who agreed to be tried for violating the Butler Act and was charged. The ACLU, for all its efforts, at the time had little success, took the case and hired Clarence Darrow, a famous

De-extinction is the process of bringing bringing back animals.It sounds like a scientific term to bring animals back like the wooly mammoths.We need to bring them back because they are like elephants and a lot of people never have seen them in real life except for cavemen.I think that this is a very good idea. First we need to research to find the evidence that mammoths are very important and that we need to bring them back.George Church says de-extinction is a good idea.”Mammoths could keep the

If extinct species were brought back, they might not be able to successfully reintroduced into the environment while maintaining environmental homeostasis. The environments of species that have gone extinct have in most cases undergone significant physical and ecological changes. As a result of these changes, some populations of wildlife have decreased by as much as 50% in the past forty years (Dell’Amore, 2014). If the niches of living changes have changed so much in the past forty years, the

Hillsboro remain intransigent in their observance to Christianity and reject the concept of evolution, resulting in the trial that would bring attention from everywhere in the country. Referred to as the “buckle on the Bible Belt” (Act 1. Scene 1), the town is known for its strict adherence to its religion and puts a school teacher named Bert Cates on trail with the intent of imprisoning him for teaching evolution since it was illegal to do so. Although characters such as prosecuter Matthew Harrison Brady
