The Gray Wolf (Canis lupus)
[ send me this essay ]
A 6 page overview of the behavior, ecology, and management concerns which exist for this fascinating carnivore. The gray wolf (Canis lupus) is not only one of the most impressive of the large North American mammals it is also one of the most misunderstood. Recent conservation efforts have been successful in reviving an almost extinct population but this success has not been without its problems. As wolf populations expand their threat to man, whether perceived or real, grows. This paper emphasizes that proper management of the gray wolf involves not just species specific management but ecosystem management as a whole. Bibliography lists 4 sources.

The Human Digestive System / Its Phylogenetic and Ontogenetic Development
[ send me this essay ]
A 7 page exploration of the concepts of phylogeny and ontongeny in relation to the digesive system. Discusses the embryonic development of the digestive system and points out that, although it is possible that certain phases of our evolution are reflected in our embryonic development, this reflection is sporadic and quite different from the view held in the nineteenth century that an organism's embryological developmental phases give a clear picture of its evolutionary history. Bibliography lists five sources.

The Impacts of Mendelian Genetics
[ send me this essay ]
A 4 page contention that the result of Gregor Mendel's research has not only changed the way people perceive the world, but also the way people live in it. Carefully quantifying his bservations, Mendel was able to come to produce a set of laws that allow us to predict the genetic outcome of specific genetic crosses. Other geneticists have expanded this knowledge and made it an integral component of many aspects of our lives. Bibliography lists 3 sources.

The Importance of Phylogenetic Relationships in Evolutionary Biology
[ send me this essay ]
A 5 page contention that phylogenetic relationships are a critical component of evolutionary biology. Indeed, it is upon our knowledge of phylogeny which we base much of our theory of evolution. Even in “Origin of Species”, that infamous production of an earlier century which many consider synonymous with the concept of evolution, Darwin relies heavily on his knowledge of phylogeny to assess the characteristics of plants and animals which he observed on his scientific voyage on the “Beagle”. Contends that this is only one example, of the many interrelationships of phylogeny and evolutionary theory which have occurred over time. It, along with the somewhat antiquated concept of ontogeny recapitulating phylogeny, however, illustrates the importance of phylogeny to evolutionary theory. Bibliography lists 3 sources.

The Lazarus Effect and the ‘Feathers’ of the Longisquama
[ send me this essay ]
This 3 page paper is written in two parts, answering several questions; which of the three commonly accepted explanations is most likely to explain the Lazarus effect, what value or information the Lazarus effect provides when studying the fossil record and what is meant by refugia. The second part of the paper looks at the appendages of Longisquama considers if these are mostly likely to be feathers or scales, the role they may have had and whether it was likely to be the ancestor of bird life.The bibliography cites 7 sources.

The Living Fossil "Palms"
[ send me this essay ]
A 5 page paper discussing the physical characteristics, geographical
distribution, morphological adaptations and reproduction of the genus Cycas of the Cycadaceae
family. The long survival of Cycas is easy to explain, though some species are now endangered
because of their commercial value and the slow growth rate of their seedlings. Others are in
danger because of loss of habitat, such as the C. elephantipes. The Cycas genus is one important
for both evolutionary and commercial interest. In that, its status is not likely to change.
Bibliography lists 4 sources.

The Long-Term Effect of the Development of the Atomic Bomb: Environmental and Sociological Impacts at Los Alamos and Trinity
[ send me this essay ]
An 8 page overview of the societal and environmental legacy of the 1945 development and testing of the Atomic Bomb. Outlines the impacts to the ecologies of these areas as well as to the human inhabitants. These impacts have been both environmental and community-based. An entire community grew up around the Los Alamos Lab and this community is still integrally connected to both the past and the present activities of the Laboratory. Bibliography lists 6 sources.
