Introduction Last week‚ my Biology class and I went down to the Port Kembla Rock Platform. While we were there we surveyed five different sectors about the rock platform and recorded them‚ these included: 1. Surveying the abiotic characteristics of the rock platform 2. Observing the abundance and distribution of the Black Periwinkle (Nerita Atramentosa) 3. Observing the feeding relationships and food webs of the organisms 4. Finding the adaption’s of organisms 5. And Observing the human impacts

The Rise of the Superbugs A Superbug is a bacterium that can live in the human body and has the ability to withstand all forms of antibiotic medication. Superbugs are becoming increasingly significant in modern medicine as they are becoming more and more resistant to antibiotics. Antibiotics were discovered in 1928 by Alexander Fleming (Walsh and McManus‚ 2000). This resulted in a huge movement forward in medical history and even greatened human life expectancy. Since then antibiotics have been

Biology assignment - In Vitro Fertilization. In Vitro Fertilization (IVF)‚ is the procedure whereby human babies are conceived‚ not in the womb but in a test tube or a Petri dish. This procedure has become one of the greatest developments in the world of medical technology. In Vitro Fertilization has given infertile couples the chance to conceive and bear a child from a full term of pregnancy. Without this procedure‚ their infertility would render them childless. There are many aspects of

When I reflect about the debate over whether prayer should be allowed in public school
