pertinent ethical issue is whether the benefits outweigh the burdens. he doctrine (or principle) of double effect is often invoked to explain the permissibility of an action that causes a serious harm‚ such as the death of a human being‚ as a side effect of promoting some good end. It is claimed that sometimes it is permissible to cause such a harm as a side effect (or “double effect”) of bringing about a good result even though it would not be permissible to cause such a harm as a means to bringing

The Effects of Sea-Level Rise on Coastal Salt Marshes and their Associated Ecosystem Services Katelyn M. Nyberg Introduction Climate Change The Intergovernmental Panel of Climate Change (IPCC) has observed an increase of 0.19 meters of global mean sea-level rise from 1901 to 2010‚ with “about 70% of the coastlines worldwide projected to experience a sea level change within ±20% of the global mean” (IPCC 2014). Dramatic increases in sea-level are produced by increasing temperatures which cause glaciers

What they are; They are the different ways numbers can be used. NOMINAL LEVEL: Numbers can be used as tags or labels‚ where the size of the number is arbitrary. Barcodes and social security numbers are two examples. We could use the name of the merchandise or person equally well‚ but we choose numbers instead. The fact that the barcode for milk is higher than for razor blades (is it?)‚ or that your SSN is higher than mine ( is it?) tells us nothing. In surveys they often use arbitrary numbers

The Effects of Snails and Elodea in Water on Carbon Dioxide Levels Problem: How does varying the type of organism (plant or animal) in the level affect the level of carbon dioxide? Background: This lab is used to test the effect the respiration rates in plants in animals and how it affects the level of carbon dioxide present in the water. Oxygen and carbon dioxide are gases that are vital to all organisms‚ whether it is given or released through that organism. Both plants and animals

Conclusion: In order to make bread‚ yeast is required. Yeast is a singled celled fungus that contains protein and is part of the fermentation process. As explained in question nine‚ fermentation is the process of the breakdown of sugars by bacteria and yeast using a method of respiration without oxygen (anaerobic respiration). It involves a culture of yeast and a solution of sugar‚ producing ethanol and carbon dioxide with the aid of the enzymes. The process of fermentation and bread making requires

Factors Affecting Fermentation of Glucose by Yeast Introduction: Fermentation is anaerobic respiration whereby food is altered into more simple compounds and energy in the form of chemicals is produced‚ an example being adenosine triphosphate (biology-online.org/dictionary/Fermentation). All this occurs with the lack of atmospheric oxygen. At the end of the day alcohol and carbon dioxide are the end products when yeast is used in the fermentation procedure. But end products like acetic acid

Testing the pH of Common Household Substances Lab Background Information: The pH scale is used to determine the acidity or basicity level of liquid solutions. If a solution scores a pH level of 1-6 it is an acidic solution‚ 1 being the most acidic and 6 being the least acidic. If a solution rates a pH level of 7 it is a neutral solution‚ meaning it is neither an acidic nor a basic solution. Lastly‚ if a solution is 8-14 on the pH scale it is a basic solution‚ 8 being the least basic and 14 being
