My Sigma Chi Creed A lot is required from someone to be considered a gentleman but it is not hard to posses all of those things. I aspire to be of a character that embodies a gentleman and goes beyond those parameters so that I both respect everyone and am respected by everyone. I aim to become man of Sigma Chi who not only embodies the ideal of the fraternity but can give back and add on to the code by which members of the fraternity live there lives each and everyday. For it is a gift to be part of such an organization of Sigma Chi and thus I must work to better myself to embody Sigma Chi in both character and person. In order to accomplish this I must live everyday with honesty, fairness, respect and so much more. I must exemplify these ideals in every manner of myself; whether it be in school, in sports, in my fraternity or daily correspondences I must uphold these ideals. That means holding the door open for any women, having academic integrity, treating others as I wish to be treated, giving any opinion despite my own beliefs the respect it deserves and also that I will conduct myself, in the presence of others, in a respectable, appropriate way at all times. But more importantly, I will exhibit all of these traits when no one is looking because that is when the true test of character comes into play. It is one thing to act as a gentleman when others are looking but another when you know no one will know or give credit to you for your actions in a certain situation. I will make the right choice in such situations for as I said, I aspire to be a Sigma Chi and that means that in no instance are these morals and values ever not supposed to be represented and professed by my own character and actions. I will do my part to exemplify this creed in Sigma Chi and my own life.

    We would automatically assume that the longer the thumb is the higher the chances of it winning and because it has much more strength and mass. On the other hand, reflex, flexibility and strength is other factors also. A man with massive gaming experience or ball game experience may have higher winning possibilities than a man with less experience. Eventually, my hypothesis is the longer the thumb is the better chance he or she will win the thumb wresting game.…

    The substances that I found to be bases are window cleaner, hand soap, baking soda, baking powder, bleach, Lysol, and antacid. These substances were found to be bases because after testing them by dipping pH paper into a well filled with about three drops of the substance, the color of the paper turned to a color correlating with the color of an eight or higher on the pH scale.…

    This experiment was used to explore the Theory of Evolution created by Charles Darwin. The use of natural selection was apparent in the artificial modification of an organism 's traits which aided in this investigation. Through this experiment the Wisconsin Fast Plant was used. It is a fast-growing organism developed to improve the resistance to disease in cruciferous plants. This plant aids scientist in the exploration of environmental effects on population due to the speed to which is matures and reproduces. Artificial selection was stimulated by the selection against plants with few hairs (trichomes). Trichomes create a wider variation meaning it is polygenic. The plants that had only a few trichomes were exterminated and the rest were pollinated to create an F2 generation. This was done in an attempt to increase the number of plants with many hairs in the next generation. It turned out to be a successful use of natural selection due to the decreased amount of bald plants from the F1 generation to the F2 generation. Concerning how the experiment is actually performed, five Wisconsin fast seeds are planted into a cup full of soil and six fertilizer seeds. The seeds are then covered with more dirt and connected to a cup full of water through a wick. The soon to be plant is then placed under light for 24 hours. After this the plants with the highest amount of trichome numbers are found and kept. When flowers are present, the selected plants are cross pollinated with a pollinating stick and from there the plants are monitored and recorded.…

    Personally, I believe that I not only embody the four pillars of the National Honor Society, but try to instill these character traits into others in order to better both them and the MATES community as a whole. As reflected by my grades and the privilege of applying to the MATES NHS chapter, scholarship is something that I value heavily, as I give 100% at everything I do, whether that be a game in gym or a hard test, and even though I may not be perfect I try my hardest to learn from my mistakes and improve both academically and personally. Furthermore I am both trustworthy and responsible, as I have never forgotten any homework throughout my career at MATES. I also enjoy helping others, which is why I volunteer at the library to be a reading…

    By using the techniques of genetic engineering scientists are able to modify genetic materials so that a particular gene of interest from one cell can be incorporated into a different cell. It is necessary to obtain a gene to modify genetic material. First a scientist isolates plasmid DNA from bacteria and DNA carrying a gene of interest from cells of another organism, such as an animal. A piece of DNA containing the gene is inserted into a plasmid, producing recombinant DNA, and the recombinant plasmid is returned to a bacterial cell. This cell is then grown in culture forming a clone of cells. The foreign DNA spliced into the plasmid is replicated with the rest of the plasmid as the host cell multiplies. In this way, the gene of interest is cloned. A critical step in gene cloning is the identification of the bacterial clone carrying the gene of interest.…

    If we would embrace chivalry in our communities it can help show everybody are equal. Having chivalry in society can show people that all genders are equal. It could change the fact that women earn 77% of their male counterpart. Chivalry could help make the wages equal by not comparing people to each other so it is fair to all.…

    Synthetic Biology?

    The environmental movement, addressed in "Rewilding North America" by Caroline Fraser, focuses on the negative outcomes of human activities in the environment. It is a movement that restores the environment that humans have damaged. Scientists have addressed the idea, in "A life of its own" by Michael Specter, of using synthetic biology to mend environmental issues. Synthetic biology combines the "elements of engineering, chemistry, computer science, and molecular biology…to assemble the biological tools necessary to redesign the living world" (Specter 364). There are both positive and negative impacts of a synthetic world on the environment movement. The environmental issues consist pollution, depletion of natural resources, extinction of endangered species, population, protection of natural areas, etc. Synthetic biology can aid some of these issues, but further deteriorate others as well. A way that synthetic biology could potentially enhance the environment is through the creation of "cheap drugs, clean fuels, and new organisms to siphon carbon dioxide from the atmosphere," but only "if the tools of synthetic biology succeeds" (Specter 265). However, some of the processes that the environmental movements undergo contradict with the ideals of synthetic biology. Therefore, moving towards a synthetic world will hinder some of the environmental movements on several issues such as, the usage of money, habitat and animals, nature, animal cruelty, but the anticipated benefits are without a doubt worth the cost.…

    Today, we use the word 'gentleman' very casually, without understanding the depth in its meaning. Any audiences, large or small, are addressed by the terms ladies and gentlemen. On looking at the real deep meaning of the word 'gentleman' we realize how carelessly we use it. The word 'gentleman' has evolved over a long time. The word is associated with esteemed values and principles that should be possessed by a man to be called a gentleman. The connotation of the word 'gentleman' has changed over time. It once implied a man of conduct, a man of virtue while it has become an everyday word of the present times.…

    After bringing myself up to date with some further research on genetic engineering or also referred to as genetic modification, here are some of my thoughts on the pros and cons. But before we jump right into it, I should tell you a little about what genetic engineering is. Genetic engineering refers to a set of technologies that are being used to change the genetic makeup of cells. You hear this and think of something like bio warfare or genetically altered animals. But don’t be scared, genetic engineering can be good. It holds potential in the health and food industry as well as the economy.…
