“Biosecurity is the protection of agricultural animals from any type of infectious agent -- viral, bacterial, fungal, or parasitic.” EPA. Biosecurity is a huge part in the world of agriculture with it protecting our livestock and from death, and illnesses. It is not only just for the protection of animals, but also humans. Many different pathogens can pass through cattle and other farm animals to cause an outbreak that can hurt our food sources. Biosecurity has been around since the 1990s because

Bloodstain pattern analysis (BPA) is a visually intensive forensic discipline that dedicates its resources to the deterministic signs of a violent crime (James, Kish, & Sutton, 2005). BPA seeks to define the facts surrounding an incident in question helping define an objective history for an event (Bevel, & Gardner, 2008). Bloodstain pattern analysis is based on a simple theory stating that the fluid characteristics of blood will react to any external forces in a predictable and plausible fashion

These biological agents could be viruses, toxins, bacteria, etc. Agents could be used in war or terrorist attacks. Also, they could be modified to cause extreme diseases and disorders, according to The Center for Disease Control and Prevention. It makes bioterrorism

Blister Agents Blister agent is one of the most used and deadliest chemical weapon ever to be documented in the last century. The scientific name for blister agent is Vesicants, from the Latin vesica bladder, or blister. Blister agents or "vesicants" are chemicals which have severe irritating properties that produce fluid filled pockets on the skin and damage to the eyes, lungs and other mucus membranes. Symptoms of exposure may be immediate or delayed for several hours after exposure. Weather plays

Biological threats to the homeland are one of six strategic challenges outlined in The Department of Homeland Security’s (DHS) 2014 Quadrennial Homeland Security Review. Biological threats are sometimes viewed as underrated threat to homeland security compared to the threat of terrorism and nuclear weapons. The following will explain the nature the threat of biological weapons pose on the homeland and the ongoing steps the federal government is implementing to meet this challenge. The nature of

develop of biological weapons, the DHS likely saw the acquisition of the REBS as unnecessary. Obtaining a successful biological program is difficult as seen with past attempts by governments. Both the United States and Russia were two of the best equipped countries to develop such weaponry and devoted plentiful resources to their programs. Even with the large influx money, both countries encountered difficult hurdles (Parachini, 2001). If a terrorist organization were to obtain a biological weapon

is known as biological warfare, which is the use of diseases and other biological agents to harm enemies or citizens of an opposing country. Considering that the world flourishes in science today, scientists are researching for more efficient ways to handle war, which is were biological warfare comes in. After this method was discovered, many armies looked to it as the savior of war. Unfortunately, people are not aware of the many consequences that biological warfare holds. Biological weaponry offers

Preventing Biological Threats, by Jeffrey R. Ryan, goes into extensive detail on the different ways to respond to a potential or active bioterrorist attract. To better explain, there are many different types of responders. For instance, there are the first responders, as well as community response organizations (Ryan, 2016, p. 136). In addition, there are many divergent levels of first responders that are called to a scene of an intentional or unintentional release of a chemical or biological hazardous

An example of a potential viral bioterrorism agent is Ebola. Ebola would be effective because of its aggressiveness and minimal treatment. Symptoms of this disease include: fever, severe headache, muscle pain, weakness, diarrhea, vomiting, stomach pain, and unexplained bleeding or bruising (CDC, 2014; World Health Organization, 2014). Ebola, however, is only transmitted from person to person through bodily fluids (i.e. urine, saliva, sweat, feces, vomit, breast mile, semen [CDC, 2014])

Lord of the Flies by William Goulding the boys are on a plane that is shot down stranding them on an island with no adults. Eventually the boys behavior changes from civil to savage and immoral this may be due to nature or nurture. Nature is the biological factors that influence a person's behavior. Whereas nurture is the situation influencing behavior. The boys’ savage and immoral behavior in Lord of the Flies should be blamed on nurture because no adult authority figures were present to enforce
