From the reading‚ Should trees have standing‚ written by professor Christopher Stone in USC‚ analyzing and challenging the legal premise of nature should be treat as objects in the eyes under the law of rights. In the reading‚ the author argue the fundamental basis need to be rewritten for the destruction of nature. In the beginning of the reading‚ the author used the history of law to suggest a parallel development that there never was a pure state of nature. No “right” existed except in

Equestrian sports have been in the summer Olympics since the 1900s. It is apart of today’s culture and livelihood of more people than you would think. Many argue that the Olympics should be strictly for humans only and not allow horses. But‚ Personally I think it is one of the most original and oldest sports that have been around and should continue on in being a sport in the summer Olympics. The Equestrian sport is a partnership of rider and horse becoming one with one another and has much equality

Do you want the government to tell you what you can have to eat on a daily basis? Do you want to choose your dinner or have someone choose it for you? The government wants to control our diets here in the United States but I do not think that they have the right to tell us what we can eat. This could cause multiple issues‚ cost more money‚ and even takes away our private rights as United States citizens. How would the government be able to tell you what you can or cannot eat? The government would

he mass and length of the potato piece must be kept the same in each experiment primarily because they affect the surface area of the piece‚ and varying surface area could have a great effect on the rate of osmosis. This is because in an experiment where the potato chip has a large surface area‚ there is a larger area of partially permeable membrane and therefore more opportunity for water particles to pass through. I will keep the surface area the same by keeping the mass and length

Should we have exams? Exams are taken all around the world. They are taken in high schools‚ universities and colleges. Exams are also mandatory. Some students think that taking an exam is not fair or useful. I think that exams should be taken because‚ exams help students with their studies further‚ and they review what the student has learned one last time‚ in case they forgot anything. Also exams and tests show how much students have paid attention in their classes. Firstly Exams help students

Example 1: Does the curve y = 2x3 – 2 crosses the x-axis between x = 0 and x = 2? Solution: Solving for the given values of x‚ at x = 0‚ then y = 2(0)3 – 2 = -2‚ the curve is below the x-axis at x = 2‚ y = 2(2)3 – 2 = 16 – 2 = 14‚ the curve is above the x-axis‚ So the curve crosses the x-axis between x = 0 and x = 2 since y = 2x3 – 2 has a solution found between this interval. Example 2: From the curve y = x5 - 2x3 – 2‚ is there a solution between x = 1 and x = 2? Solution: Using the given

are some of the important skills that a musician should have. All of the skills mentioned are crucial to the development of any musician who really wants to become an excellent musician. But the single most important skill that most musicians or guitar players don’t have‚ and don’t know how to practice‚ is Aural Skills or Ear Training. Most of the musicians nowadays have poor aural skills or their ears are still not as good as they could be and should be. So in this study‚ we plan to make an E-Learning

Most high school students are teenagers. They are no longer children‚ but they still are not adults. Thus‚ they often want to wear latest fad clothes when they go to schools. However‚ I prefer the idea that they should be required to wear uniforms. First of all‚ uniform is one of the best features of each high school. Every country has its own national flag. Every football team has its own club emblem. Similarly‚ every high school has its own uniform. Uniform helps us to distinguish among schools

Variables in Glucose Tolerance lab was to examine the changes in blood sugar during glucose tolerance test conducted with test rats. We will be using three rats and perform the Oral Glucose Tolerance Test to measure the glucose levels in the rats blood. The oral glucose tolerance test is a laboratory method to check how the body breaks down (metabolizes) blood sugar. Glucose is the sugar that the body uses for energy. Patients with untreated diabetes have high blood glucose levels. Glucose tolerance
