Dian Fossey Dina Fossey was viewed as a hero‚ because she was one of the best top American zoologists in the world who for 18 years studied gorillas in Rwanda with Louis Leakey.

[pic] A Zoo for a Primate Observation 11/15/2012 For this paper I decided to visit Zoo Atlanta to observe lowland gorillas.

The point of this trip was to make me feel as if I was doing a field laboratory observation

Technology effects of Human Relationships They say “All good things must come to an end”. Well if this is correct‚ and Technology had stopped existing how would the world respond? I predict that this world would go into a “great depression”. Not necessarily because of beneficial and honorable things like the abilities to further your education‚ watching the news‚ or cooking a simple meal for the family but because of the inability to use technology as a relationship based source. Based on the research

Rights for Great Apes I support scientists researching on and experimenting with great apes. Since scientists don’t want to jeopardize the lives of humans‚ they test on apes. If they were not testing apes‚ then they would be testing other animals which other people would also fight against. Scientists perform tests on these apes for one very important reason‚ “98.4 percent of the DNA in chimpanzees (and 97.7 percent of the DNA in gorillas) is identical to the DNA of human beings.” This proves

Who was the last person to know everything about everything there was to know at the time? Hunger for knowledge is something that has been inherent for humankind since the beginning. Humans have a need to grasp as much knowledge as possible‚ because being aware and knowing about things helps us to live an easier and a better life. A human’s hunger for knowledge can never be fulfilled and it is impossible to know everything there is to know‚ so the idea of being an all knowing person is not a realistic

Jeremy Anderson TOK Essay Can a Machine Know? A machine is something that is manmade and essentially has no mind to think on its own. Therefore‚ when the question proposed is‚ “Can a machine know”‚ most people would answer by saying no‚ a machine can not know. The answer to this question is actually yes‚ a machine can know.

For such a complex concept a direct definition leaves more questions than answers. When a species changes biologically over time‚ evolution guides the process. All living species on earth effect one and other‚ during the evolutionary process. We depend on that change for our change and they depend on us to affect their change (Park‚ 2014). The success of those changes depends on the ever constant fight to adapt to the natural environment. For a species to survive depends on the best genetic mutation
