Evidence of Violent and Non-Violent Cultures in Non-Human Primates
[ send me this paper ]
This 11
page report discusses the fact that when the concept of culture is examined in relationship
to biological anthropology, it offers insight to the ways in which certain behaviors have
developed and whether as they can be thought of as unique to one species or if there is a
biological predetermination to be addressed. Therefore, it is important to look at the
behaviors and cultures of different non-human primates and determine the ways in which
that has influenced the development of humanity. The author of the report uses the
example of violent (chimpanzees) and non-violent (bonobos) social relationships to
consider such questions. Bibliography lists 7 sources.

Evolution & Christian Theology
[ send me this paper ]
A 7 page research paper that examines whether or not Christian theology can accommodate scientific theories about the evolution. The writer, citing the emerging science of chaos and complexity theory, argues that science and theology can be reconciled. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

Evolution of Bacterial Pathogens
[ send me this paper ]
A 10 page discussion of the mechanisms through which bacterial pathogens evolve. Bacterial pathogens evolve in reference to a number of factors. These are both natural factors and manmade factors. Bacterial evolution in response to antibiotics is one example of this relationship. This evolution occurs both clinically and in areas such as uncontained landfills that have been the recipient of hospital wastes. Once bacteria evolve to reflect a resistance to antibodies they retain that evolutionary feature. Bibliography lists 6 sources.

Evolutionary Mechanisms: The Theory of Heterozygote Superiority Verses The Selfish Gene Theory
[ send me this paper ]
A 9 page discussion of the mechanisms by which evolution occurs. Contrasts the theory of the selfish gene proposed by Richard Dawkins with that of the theory of heterozygote superiority held to by evolutionary biologists such as E. Sober. An overview of each theory is presented. The conclusion is drawn that although certain “selfish” elements do exist (such as is the case with certain highly repetitive DNA sequences) if these elements replicated to the point where it constituted the entire genome of the organism the organism would be sterile and without offspring the too successful gene would be doomed to death. Bibliography lists 10 sources.

Evolutionary Theory and the Existence of Art in the Human Experience
[ send me this paper ]
This 5 page report discusses the reasons behind the existence of art from the point of view of writers and researchers who see it as a fundamental component of the evolutionary processes of humanity. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

Evolutionary Wonders: Examples from the Plant and Animal Kingdoms
[ send me this paper ]
A 7 page overview of the marvels of evolution as reflected in six very different representatives of the plant and animal kingdom. This paper notes the lessons mankind might learn from birds, insects, and even the lowly parasitic worms as well as food crops such as corn, medicinal plants such as foxglove, and ornamentals such as the exotic water hyacinth. Bibliography lists 7 sources.

Examination of Journal Articles on Cells
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page paper which examines and
analyzes two separate articles dealing with cells. The articles, both originating from
Scientific American, are “A ready-made controversy. (SA Perspectives). (cloning and its
controversies)” and “What clones? Widespread scientific doubts greet word of the first
human embryo clones. (Stem Cells).” No additional sources cited.

Exotic and Invasive Plants
[ send me this paper ]
A 10 page discussion of the attributes of certain plants which give them an advantage over other plants. This paper notes the deleterious impacts on biodiversity which are associated with the arrival of exotics. Bibliography lists 13 sources.
Filename: PPplntEx.rtf
Extinction and Genetic Diversity
[ send me this paper ]
This 5 page paper considers the question of whether extinction is a necessary part of the survival of the species. The question of whether extinction of certain species will inherently reduce genetic diversity has been at the center of recent debates. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

Factors Affecting Stomatal Opening
[ send me this paper ]
This 14 page paper looks at the different factors that influence stomatal opening and how these factors are seen as a biochemical level. The paper outlines the environmental factors that create or inhibit the stomatal opening and then examines the role of guard cells and the way they may open and close the aperture and the way that the actions of the guard cells may be adjusted. The bibliography cites 7 sources.

Faith & Science/Human Need for Religion
[ send me this paper ]
A 10 page research paper/essay that discusses current scientific research into the genetic basis for spiritual belief. The research of Dean H. Hamer is summarized and its implications are discussed. Bibliography lists 7 sources.
