Humans’ Moral Obligation to Preserve Endangered Species Many species that exists today are becoming endangered to extinction. In the past era where humans did not exist‚ extinction occurred due to natural causes. On this present time however‚ extinction of species are threatened by humans’ existence. Humans are the only moral agent; in which‚ it has the intellectual capacity that animals and plants do not have. Thus‚ humans are powerful and dominate over any species. Many practices that humans

Endangered species are those considered to be at risk of extinction‚ meaning that there are so few left of their kind that they could disappear from the planet altogether. Endangered species are threatened by factors such as habitat loss‚ hunting‚ disease and climate change‚ and usually‚ endangered species‚ have a declining population or a very limited range. The current rate of extinction is thought to be far greater than the expected natural rate‚ with many species going extinct before they have

Age of the Universe The age of the universe is said to be about 13.75 billion years old. The method used in determining this age would be attempting to find the age of chemical elements‚ oldest star clusters‚ as well as white dwarf stars. Scientists also try to find the universes rate of expansion‚ and behavior of globular clusters‚ which are spherical collection of stars. In order to find this‚ scientists can use radioactive decay to determine how old a given mixture of atoms is in rock samples

Properties of Probability 1. The probability of an event E always lies in the range of 0 to 1; i.e.‚ 0 ≤ P( E ) ≤ 1. Impossible event—an event that absolutely cannot occur; probability is zero.
