Gerbil

This week has been a total suck-fest, up until now. The teacher has finally trusted me with Harold. To be more specific, Harold is a two-pound, completely overweight, greyish brown gerbil. In order to justify his extreme weight, you’d have to explain that Harold had a disorder where he had to eat every four hours (real thing), and exclusively with Snausages (Probably not a real thing [the having to be fed with part not the snausages]). And my teacher has trusted me with Harold for the three-day weekend

Within the short story The School by Donald Barthelme and the novel A Visit from the Goon Squad by Jennifer Egan the characters all undergo difficult life situations that ultimately helps them find themselves and happiness in life. The young students within The School are surrounded by constant death, their fear of the future and death stops them from fulling enjoying life. “The class took it pretty hard, they began (I think, nobody ever said anything to me directly) to feel that maybe there was

my own pets, including dogs, cats, fish, mice, and gerbils, and I've also watched my friend's rats and my neighbor's cats while they were on vacation. Since my dogs and cats are family pets, I assume partial responsibility for them. This includes feeding, walking, and playing with them, and also cleaning up after them (for example, cleaning litter boxes). I also have been responsible for giving them medications in the past. In the case of my gerbils and former mouse, I have full responsibility. This

Birth of the babies The babies The gerbil is nidicolous, this means that the young are born totally helpless, furless, blind, deaf and totally depending from their parents. They weight form 2,5 to 3,5g at birth. More a litter is big, smaller the babies will be. The parents will feed them, heat and stimulate their natural functions. Newborn babies will have whiskers at birth as you can see on the picture. The babies are weaned form 21 to 35 days old. Normally, at 1 month, you can move the young in

Tom Gordon, Connor Kirschbaum Thesis: Throughout history humans have dealt with many diseases and plagues, some of these were the Bubonic Plague (the Black Death) in mid 1300’s, the Avian Flu which started in 1878 and the Swine Flu which started in the 1918. People have been discovering the causes for these plagues and diseases. They found out that animals such as Rodents for the Bubonic Plague, birds for the Avian Flu and pigs for Swine flu were vectors for diseases. The Bubonic Plague was a epidemic

Background Information  The deadly Black Death plague of Europe arrived in 1346 A.D. , during the middle ages from the Middle East as commonly thought and was also known by other names such as “the pestilence .“ The infectious deadly bacteria moved rapidly within Europe accounting for approximately 50% of mortality while disseminating northward along major trade routes of ships, lasting until the early 1350’s (Ross, 2015). The plague presented before traditional existence when living

frightened as the kids, took on the responsibility to be courageous and grants the students their request, allowing the children to hope for better times and future happiness. In this instance, the possibility of prosperity arrives in the form of “the new gerbil” (Barthelme

Alteration of p53, p53 family proteins and their isoforms by H pyroli in gastric cancer p53 is the most studied tumor suppressor protein involved in the negative regulation of cell cycle and prevention of tumorigenesis . P53 induction usually occurs during cellular stresses like DNA damage or activation of other oncogenic proteins. P53 transcribes its target genes like p21,PUMA through p53 response element and halts the cell cycle until the stress is overcome, if not severely damaged cells

To my recollection, second grade was the actual start to my educational career. In my memory, second grade was the beginning of independent bus rides and of course, the dreaded spelling tests. The nostalgic and horrid memories of that year started out with the waiting game. The bus always arrived either extremely early or tirelessly late. The excited kindergardeners, first and second graders lined up first followed by the older kids. I still can recall the gray clouds splashed across the bleak morning

wrong in every way. You would be sad or mad and act out just like some of the animals that are being tested on. Scientists are ruining our food chain by doing research on animals by testing on rats, mice, or gerbil. What this means to our food chain is when all the mice, rats, and gerbils are gone what will the snakes eat? Then if the snakes have nothing to eat then they will die. Also when animals go extinct this mess with our food chain. There are also other animals that eat snakes so if the
