Sensory Perception: Physiological Biases from Past Experiences and their Relations to Cultural and Racial Biases
[ send me this paper ]
An 8 page overview of the physiological basis of our perceptions. Discusses the phenomenon of phantom limbs in depth and relates this phenomenon to neurological processes and the structure of the brain itself. Suggests that given the number of physiological processes which can lead to false perceptions it difficult to trust even our own bodily perceptions. Extends this thought to a discussion of racial and cultural prejudices, of ingroups verses outgroups. Bibliography lists 8 sources.

Sexual Dimorphism in Brain Structure
[ send me this paper ]
A 10 page discussion of the differences which exist between males and females in terms of brain structure. There is no contesting the fact that there are structural differences between male and female brains. These differences are found in numerous species of vertebrates and, in fact, in human beings themselves. Just what these differences mean, however, is a subject of considerable debate. While brain size in particular seems to be linked to greater intelligence for many species, no definitive proof exists that human males are any more intelligent than human females. The manner in which males and females process information, however, does differ significantly. Bibliography lists 10 sources.

Sexual Mimicry
[ send me this paper ]
This 11 page paper provides an overview of the basic elements of sexual mimicry in animal populations. This paper outlines the way in which some animals achieve genetic (reproductive) success by 'pretending' to be the opposite sex. Further, this paper also describes examples and analyzes the dynamics of this phenomenon, including when this 'skill' is beneficial. Bibliography lists 10 sources.

Skeletal Muscle Contraction and Structure
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page paper describing muscle function and structure. There are several theories of the action of muscle contraction. Though at least two of these theories appear to be more than plausible, the precise mechanism by which muscles contract still is not absolutely known. What is known, however, is that the entire process is biochemically controlled and tightly choreographed to produce the desired result. Bibliography lists 4 sources.

Stem Cell Research/Not an Ethical Issue
[ send me this paper ]
A 6 page research paper/essay that argues that embryonic stem cells research is ethical. The writer bases this argument on the facts of reproduction and also presents the supposition that the real issue here is not stem cell research, per se, but the movement against abortion. The details of stem cell research are presented, along with relevant arguments supporting it. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

Stress & Memory/Article Critique
[ send me this paper ]
A 10 page research paper that offers an article critique research performed by Elzinga and Roelofs (2005), which explored the “effects of stress-induced cortisol elevations on working memory” and whether or not this effect is dependent on the level of adrenergic activity, as measured by sympathetic autonomic activation) (Elzinga and Roelofs, 2005, p. 99). The various components of this research are summarized and discussed. The paper also includes a literature review, in appropriate sections of this discussion, that further explores research on this topic. Bibliography lists 10 sources.
