Everyone has a brain in their head and sometimes problem soccurrences can occur with their brain. Those problems can be solved by a specialist called a Neurologist. A Neurologist studies about the brain and the actions that our brain makes us do and what is connected. They treat patients that have disorders that occur in the nervous system. To do this‚ a lot of studies need to be taken and you have to take a lot of time out for getting your degree and attending medical school before you actually

has a physical root. (materialism). It has a structuralist view point since behaviour is studied in terms of the underlying structure. Three of the major features in the biological perspective include evolutionary adaption‚ brain function and biochemistry. In terms of evolutionary adaptation‚ it is claimed that a lot of behaviour patterns are based on genetics due to humans evolving over a long period of time in order to adapt to their environment. It also suggests that genes are hereditary as they

India’s government is a democracy that favors advances and research in the technological and scientific areas. The future of India seems bright. India’s research and development in many areas such as genetic modification‚ bio-energy sources‚ biochemistry‚ atomic energy‚ organ donation‚ biomedical science‚ and many other issues will determine much of the way these issues are viewed by the world in the near future. How India handles many of the ethical dilemmas that scientific research presents will

Macro molecules A macromolecule is a very large molecule commonly created by polymerization of smaller subunits. In biochemistry‚ the term is applied to the three conventional biopolymers (nucleic acids‚ lipids‚ proteins and carbohydrates)‚ as well as non-polymeric molecules with large molecular mass such as lipids and macrocycles. The individual constituent molecules of macromolecules are called monomers(mono=single‚ meros=part). Usage The term macromolecule was coined by Nobel laureate Hermann

Humans are the most impure‚ destructive‚ egotistical‚ beings that exist; however‚ their essence (their souls) forgive that - original sin. Predestined for destruction; their souls were tained before conception. Over millennia‚ the innocent souls of original sin gained a Savior‚ the last sacrifice to their creator to forgive what Adam and Eve passed down. The Savor’s disciples accepted a contract with my species‚ to protect human souls and prevent the final sacrifice‚ man. What I am‚ isn’t human
