Animal Vivisection The practice of cutting open the bodies of living animals in order to do medical or scientific tests on them. Pros - the importance of studying anatomy for scientific understanding (research into genetic engineering‚ treatment of diseases such as cancer‚ training of biology students and so on) - no viable alternative; testing on humans is both morally and ethically wrong and therefore not acceptable. - laboratory animals are bred for that specific

AIM: I am carrying out an investigation to see which alcohol is the best fuel. I will do this by experimenting with different alcohols and setting them alight and measuring different factors. I will analyse all my results and try to discover patterns‚ which should help me to conclude which alcohol is the best fuel. PLAN ==== This is how my experiment will be set out: ========================================== Keeping this experiment a fair test ===================================

the field of the combustion science. Fuels obtained from biomasses could become a valid alternative to the use of fossil fuels‚ also in the light of the more and more stringent environmental constraints. In the outline of alternative liquid fuels‚ oils obtained from the pyrolysis of wood‚ generated recycling wood industry scraps‚ appear to be very promising as concerns their use in power plants and diesel engines. However‚ a commercial use of such "bio-fuels" requires a systematic study of the most

Ethical implications of new and emerging technologies: Biomedical Part A: There is no evidence of a specific inventor of biomedical engineering‚ however‚ it’s earliest form of evidence‚ was first recoded from a mummy from Thebes. The preserved body has the first known signs of prosthesis in the form of a wooden toe that was attached to the foot using string. This proves that the continuous development of biomedical engineering is enabled by the natural human instinct to improve and increase the

OVERVIEW This lesson introduces students to vehicles that use alternative fuels for transportation and contrasts them to conventionally fueled vehicles. Students will familiarize themselves with alternative fuels that can be used in vehicles by engaging in an introductory class discussion‚ reading and answering questions from the Reading Passage‚ working in groups to conduct Internet research on assigned topics related to vehicle fuel usage and giving final presentations of assigned topics. Each student

ENERGY RESOURCES ABSTRACT The electricity requirements of the world including India are increasing at alarming rate and the power demand has been running ahead of supply. It is also now widely recognized that the fossil fuels (i.e.‚ coal‚ petroleum and natural gas) and other conventional resources‚ presently being used for generation of electrical energy‚ may not be either sufficient or suitable to keep pace with ever increasing demand of the electrical energy of the world
