Yellow Fever and Human Experimentation As researchers traveled to Cuba to study the disease, United States Army researchers soon discovered the cause of Yellow Fever. Through the determination of Yellow Fever Experimentation Carols Finlay, decides to test his theory of mosquito transmission. This is what many historians or researches call a human experimentation in which a human of course takes into an act of manipulation of the body for further understandment. Lazer (another researcher) continues the experiment on other humans, unfortunately they soon fell ill.…
It is truly a magnificent day for the scientific community, particularly biologists who study the field of evolution. It was first described in the article “Almost Human” in the National Geographic magazine. In the savannah of Northern Africa between eastern Senegal and western Mali scientist Jill Pruetz has observed and recorded nature’s wonder of evolution in a pack of Fongoli Chimpanzees. Ordinarily, you would imagine Chimpanzee swinging around in the high canopy’s of a forest where they would go to sleep and hunt. However, in the Savanah of Northern Africa these chimps have been forced to adapt to a very different environment, one similar to the one believed early humans adapted in.…
Moreover, Goodall toured a medical research laboratory and realized that baby chimps located there were not allowed to interact with each other as they were contained in small boxes. Her encounter with a chimp hiding in the back of a box and rocking back and forth in its cage led her to advocate for labs where chimps could interact and be contained in larger cages if research was necessary. Jane not only noticed the maltreatment of laboratory chimps, she persisted in making her demands for improvement known. Her determination led researchers to comply to her suggestions even if they were not originally in support of the changes (Welty, "300 Days"). Goodall possessed a large array of knowledge regarding chimpanzee behavior from her individual studies, and she…
Tuskegee syphilis experiment was a horrific study done on African American men in 1932, with many unethical actions. The men were told that there were being treated for having “Bad blood”, when in fact they had a sexual transmitted disease that can lead to painful, and deadly symptoms such as hallucinations, weak nervous system, or even cardiovascular problems. The are many unethical points in this study that were overlooked. One being is that the men were not informed on the whole purpose of the experiment or the dangers of the study. In the beginning I understood the sole purpose of the study, and how it could have been beneficial for them and whoever else had the disease.…

A man’s desire is always to conquer something. Whether it is an object or a task at hand, the nature of man has always been wired to conquering something by adapting, adjusting, and overcoming to whatever is put in front of them. Jon Krakauer, a brilliant writer, delivers and personifies this notion to a tee. An expert mountain climber, Krakauer has been to the highest peak on the face of this Earth, but at times he felt he was at the lowest depths of despair. This sudden swing of emotion is what Krakauer thrives on in his writing.…
A Summary Of Jane Goodall’s video Jane Goodall created one of the most important studies about primates in modern times when she observed Tanzanian chimps and their behavior, up close and personal. However until her studies, a few studies of chimpanzees had been successful. At first Goodall couldn't get close to the chimpanzees, they fled every time she got too close to them, but the she created what she called “ the banana club” to gain the chimpanzee’s trust, after that she was able to get close enough to observe and study them. She noted that chimps have a complex social system. Including a language that has more that 20 sounds.…

The beauty of life lies in the little things that we do each day that create special and remarkable memories. The mystery of life will be the moment we are gone from this world which make every instant worth living for. According to Grace Halden, immortality has not yet been achieved for humans, but many have sought immortality in various ways as did a Chinese Emperor who once ingested mercury in the hopes that it would lead him to an eternal life. (Halden 4) One would not think that dying is the key to immortality and that was the case for Henrietta Lacks. After long time of avoiding her medical conditions, Lacks decided to finally visit the doctor and the discovery that came with her treatment would become the cure to a disease that claimed…
The chimps in the story create the ideas for their religion seemingly on their own with their own brains. So my question if those chimps had been released into the wild would their religious ideas have spread or would the chimps in the wild not be smart enough to comprehend the complex ideas. The chimps in the story were raised very differently from normal chimps in the wild. They were given a way to clearly communicate which most chimps do not have. So I wonder if all chimps would form a religion with a way to understand it or if only these chimps did because they were more intelligent.…

Atmospheric perspective is designed to suggest a 3D space in the 2D space of the picture, and in which forms and objects distant from the viewer (Adams, 2003). This atmospheric perspective can be seen in the sky of the painting, the viewer cannot see anything distinct pass the mountain, but it is implied there is something beyond the mountains. The atmospheric perspective stretches the landscape of the painting, and makes the painting seem bigger than it actually is. Highlights in paintings are the points that have the highest value in the painting (Adams, 2003). In this particular painting the highlights of the painting are mainly on the faces of the objects of the painting.…
