- Refer back to Chapter 4 of your textbook, in the second paragraph in the section on mammals. Establish your clear understanding of Rechtschaffen’s statement, “If sleep does not serve an absolutely vital function then it is the biggest mistake the evolutionary process has ever made.” In your own words, explain what he meant. Please write 100-300 words. Remember not to plagiarize. There are no wrong answers so you do not need to check with me to find out if you are correct. I want to know your understanding of his statement.arrow_forwardWHAT MAKES US PEOPLE DIFFERENT FROM ANIMALS?arrow_forwardYour roommate is writing a paper on the subject of cocaine and birth defects in humans and wonders why there don’t seem to be published reports of controlled experiments in humans on the subject; all the studies are on rats!

- I need answer ASAP for below question? Given the situation today that we are suffering from global health crisis, who do you think does our country needs more? A left-brain or right-brain thinkers? Explain and justify your answer.?arrow_forwardAnimal research is a necessary practice in the world of medical research, allowing scientists to develop life-saving interventions and to spot catastrophic problems before new techniques or products make their way to actual patients. However, this does not mean that we should deny that there are serious ethical issues involved. Animal testing is not a pretty or pleasant process. It causes pain and suffering to animal subjects, and legitimate cases of abuse have been uncovered by animal rights groups. Consequently, the practice should be tightly regulated, and alternative methods should be employed whenever possible. • Discuss a specific research study involving animals that had ethical issues. • What were the ethical issues involved? • What could have been done to conduct the research study differently to avoid these ethical issues?arrow_forwardWe are an intelligent species and the use of our intelligence quite properly gives us pleasure. In this respect the brain is like a muscle. When it is in use we feel very good. Understanding is joyous Explain whether it is an inductive or deductive argument. Identify the reasons, any assumptions and conclusion in the above argument. Then translate the argument into standard form.arrow_forward

- Are there current scientific development- for example in biology- that challenge the understanding of nature presented by Thomas Aquinas?arrow_forwardWhich of these statements are true about predictions and hypotheses? (4 are true) □ If the results of the experiment are NOT consistent with a given prediction then that hypothesis is false. O Hypotheses and predotions are the same as theories. A predictions is a possible explanations to explain the initial observation. Predictions and hypotheses are the same thing. Predictions are usually written as if/then statements. "If I do this, then that will happen." O The prediction step comes before the hypothesis. Hypotheses are usually written as if/then statements. "If I do this, then that will happen." A hypothesis is a possible explanations to explain the initial observation. O The prediction step comes after the hypothesis.arrow_forwardScientists studying orangutans on the Indonesian islands of Borneo and Sumatra recently found that the orangutans inhabiting the food-scarce island of Borneo have smaller brains than those on Sumatra, where food is abundant. From this observation, what can we infer about the relationship between brain size and diet in orangutan evolution?arrow_forward
