Biology Research Papers Samples That Help You Write Better, Faster & with Gusto

The scholarly researched basis regarding the use of animals in biomedical experimentation holds that an arguable conclusion can be known, but it is impossible for all scientists to arrive at an agreed upon resolution. The vibrant conversation has even adapted the conversation towards whether genetic manipulation, in today’s biomedical research, has crossed the line of ethics. Nevertheless, facts are facts. In Chapter 7 of ‘Arguing about Bioethics,’ by Holland (2012) Cohen argues from a position why animals have no rights and faces the sentiments concerning nonhuman-animal suffering or harms, resulting from scientific biomedical research (p. 94). For one, Continue reading...

Who We Love and How We Love Them: America’s Evolving Sexual Mores

ARTICLE REVIEWS
In an article on The Atlantic.com, “Multiple Lovers, Without Jealousy,” Olga Kazhan explores the history, prevalence, and characteristics of polyamorous relationships, a pluralistic model of relationships which has garnered attention in recent years as the dialogue on sexuality and gender issues moves into the national spotlight. Those identifying as polyamorous not only permit sexual freedom to themselves and their partner, but may also engage in serious long-term relationships with someone (or multiple someones) other than their partner. Kazhan’s personal interviews weave nimbly in and out of statistics, popular polls, and a history of non-monogamy throughout the Continue reading...

Literature Review

Introduction
Discussion of the existing literature on the preventions of Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV), find cases of HIV-exposed seronegative individuals frequently considered representative models of novel prevention efforts. Reference to individuals demonstrating innate natural resistance to HIV infection identify as HIV-exposed seronegative (HESN) [1]. Despite the advances in the study of management of HESN of the HIV infection, none of the associations related with resistance to HIV infection including multiple genetic and immune factors account for all cases of HIV-exposed seronegativity [2].
Paul McLaren and his colleagues write of their findings of the potential mechanisms of resistance to HIV Continue reading...

These children today suffer at the hands of the cruel adults who they know, but cannot avoid and this increases the trauma in the sexual abuse. The tears and the heartrending silence form the foundation of many childhood memories because childhood Continue reading...

Taxonomic Classification

Staphylococcus, or commonly known as Staph, is type of bacteria that has almost 30 other types than can cause infection (Cunha, 2014). Since there are only minor differences in the species of Staph, taxonomists still consider them as good species. Staphylococcaceae is the bacterial family of the genus Staphylococcus (Hill, n.d.). Staphylococcus aureus is the most common to cause infection. S. aureus, together with S. intermedius, is coagulase positive while all the other types are coagulase negative (Baron, n.d.).

Morphological and Anatomical Features

Staphylococci are gram-positive, spherical in shape, and have a one-micrometer diameter and under a microscope, it looks like clusters or Continue reading...

Neurobiological of Major Depression Disorder

Areas of the brain are involved in MDD
As a result of Major Depression Disorder (MDD), there is a structural and synaptic alterations in various parts of the brain. These parts include hippocampus and the frontal cortex. According to the pathophysiological studies, these alterations are anticipated to prevent the brain from developing necessary adaptive reactions to the surrounding stimuli. These facts have raised concerns to the neuroscientists to develop a research of neurotrophins in depression. This is because there are neural survival factors of significant on maintenance and establishment of neural circuit during development in the adult patients. As Continue reading...

Introduction
The term steroid was coined by Callow and Young for a particular type of compounds containing hydrogenated cyclopentenophenanthrene-ring scheme. Steroids develop naturally inside the body. These compounds are associated chemically with cholesterol. Steroids include sterols, cardiac aglycones, bile acids, certain poisons and saponins (Schoenheimer and Evans Jr 139).
There are various types of steroids with different applications. Corticosteroids have a positive impact on the human body and are Continue reading...

The School Culture Survey inquired about the relationship between Melwood Elementary School, in Upper Marlboro, Maryland and its different stakeholders. The researcher sought the assistance of individuals who were vested with the school community or most frequently involved with the school functions and extracurricular activities. The interviewees included the following: parents of a one and fifth-grade student, two students from the school (grade seven and eight), the English department head, and a grade one biology teacher. The interviews took place either over the phone or in person at the school and areas of work. The research employed the use Continue reading...

Steroids according to Klugger (2014) is a class of synthetic or natural organic compounds characterized by a 17 carbon atom molecular structures arranged in four rings (sec. 1). Being carbon-based compounds, steroids exhibit significant biochemical properties at both the cellular and tissue levels in the human body. Naturally, in the human body the steroid groups typically include all the human sex hormones, the bile acids, and the adrenal cortical hormones. Thus, according to Scovell (n.d.), steroids represent a family of somatic lipid molecules (amphipathic molecules) such as cholesterol (sec. 1). What is of primary concern, however, is steroid use Continue reading...

Introduction

When growing up, children from themselves in certain groups. Age is one of the basic factors that lead to the formation of these groups. This is something that comes naturally and many people ask themselves why. It has been reasoned that this is due to the cognitive development of the children. If they are of the same age, there are high chances that they will have the same thoughts on the environment since their brains are growing at the same rate. This is why it is difficult to separate these age groups and grow together. They might start falling Continue reading...

Discussion

In this study used an in vivo multivariable competition assay on two groups of subjects to determine the rates of the dominant allele for the gene associated with PTC sensitivity. There are many pseudogenes that bitter agents can bind (Floriano, 2005). This study wanted to observe a phenotypic trait that reports the sensitivity of bitterness in the tongue. On a molecular level this phenotypic trait can be shown to be from the expression specific G-protein coupled receptors in the tastebuds. PTC tasters were found by using two different kinds of coffee: American coffee and Cuban coffee which contained two Continue reading...

The views about the psychogenic and somatogenic perspectives of psychological abnormality began to develop in the 1800’s, and have been continuing to progress since their introduction. According to the somatogenic perspective, abnormal psychological functioning is due to physical causes, whereas the psychogenic perspective considers the main causes of abnormal functioning to be psychological (Comer, 2014). As more biological studies were performed, this opened the door for researchers and doctors to think that there were many physical factors that were linked to mental disorders. For example, Emil Kraepelin discovered that syphilis, which is an organic disease, was believed to Continue reading...

Discussing the Pros and Cons of Modern Zoos

INTRODUCTION
Almost everyone can remember visiting a zoo, of one kind or another, either with family, friends or school field trip. People recall the excitement of seeing how big elephants and giraffe really are in person, seeing an African lion and hearing it roar in your presence and being, nearly, face to face with a gorilla looking into its eyes. This is a unique experience that would ever have been possible any other way; it is the only real opportunity most people have to see exotic animals from all across the globe. However, not everyone perceives zoos, of any Continue reading...

Introduction

Dinesh D’Souza, in his piece called “Staying Human”, outlined the benefits and dangers of transforming life itself. From the simple cloning of sheep, he says, men of science broadened the horizons of molecular biology and biotechnology by developing techniques in creating cloned species of other animals. This eventually leads to the idea that man, in any race, shape or form, can be cloned and made for a specific purpose according to the needs of the world.
He gives examples that support the idea of scientists who call themselves techno-utopians that this can be done. Of course, the famous Continue reading...

Summary and Introduction

The Revelstoke Dam or what is more popularly known among the Canadian locals as the Revelstoke Canyon Dam is a man-made water reservoir that sits atop the Revelstoke Canyon. The main reason behind the development of the Dam is for hydroelectric purposes. When it comes to the dimensions of the reservoir, it spans the entire length of the Columbia River which is roughly around five kilometers. It is located in Revelstoke, British Columbia in Canada. Currently, it has five powerhouses or generating units with each unit generating roughly 500 Megawatts of electrical power.
The first powerhouse or generating unit Continue reading...

An 18-year-old, who is graduating in May, has not completed any college applications or expressed any plans for life after high school. This may seem an unusual problem, but research indicates that there is a significant population of high school students who are less than eager to attend college (Bush, 2005). From a psychological standpoint, this lack of motivation in continuing education is complicated, with many potential causes depending on gender, class and a host of other considerations, including academic underachievement. The chief culprit of high school students not attending college seems to be underachievement and lack of motivation, Continue reading...
