Steven Johnson/Emergence
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page book review that offers a summation of the major points of Steven Johnson's text Emergence: The Connected Lives of Ants, Brains, Cities, and Software (2001). This is a fascinating book that offers its readers insight into the latest paradigm on how the natural world is organized. According to this radical perspective, complex adaptive systems (such as ant colonies-- or large cities) provide examples of complex order emerging from a series of small-scale interactions. No additional sources cited.

Synaptic Transmission
[ send me this paper ]
This 5 page paper examines the process of synaptic transmission. The paper starts with the historical view, looking at the way understanding has developed. The processed themselves are then outlined and the paper ends by considering how imbalances can result in clinical conditions. The bibliography cites 4 sources.

Techniques for the Study of Cells
[ send me this paper ]
This 3 page paper provides an overview on how a microbiologist studies cells. Various techniques are discussed inclusive of cell fractionation. The importance of PCR testing is also touched on. Bibliography lists 3 sources.
Filename: SA347DNA.rtf
Techniques Used in Cell Biology
[ send me this paper ]
This 5 page paper outlines the view that the study of cellular function and the variety of different techniques used in cell biology relate to the complexity of cellular structures. Theorists like Warren Weaver, for example, recognized the concept of “organized complexity” and related this in terms of efforts to provide a rational account of biological organization. Bibliography lists 6 sources.

Techniques Used in Cell Biology
[ send me this paper ]
This 15 page paper addresses this major issue. Recent studies have focused on the ability to monitor expression of genes in a bacterium, especially in those bacteria with genome that have been sequenced. Escherichia coli (E. coli) is a bacterium that has recently been sequenced, and this study attempts to determine the elements that change the expression, including upregulation and down regulations of the genome of E. coli. This study provides a view of the impacts of environmental conditions (aerobic, anaerobic, microaerobic or the presence of potassium nitrate) on the expression of E. coli-12. Bibliography lists 10 sources.

Technological Innovations in Farming
[ send me this paper ]
A 9 page overview of the diversity of technological innovations which have made their way into modern agricultural practice. These include everything from the use of genetically engineered plants, to the control of pests and disease, to the use of plants and animals as bioreactors in molecular farming. Specific areas of farming now entail a number of technological considerations which were only a figment of science fiction just a few years ago. Many of these innovations have resulted in the ever increasing pressure to feed the world’s masses and to provide certain products which are of pharmaceutical or industrial use. Bibliography lists 10 sources.

Technology, Pharmaceuticals, and the Production of Vitamin B-12
[ send me this paper ]
This 5 page report discusses the technological advances that have
led to advances in pharmaceutical research and knowledge. The
report’s particular focus is on the Vitamin B-12 and its impact
on human health. Bibliography lists 4 sources.

Temperature Effects on Behavior
[ send me this paper ]
A 7 page paper discussing the link between
increased temperature and increase aggressive behavior. Increased irritability, inability to
concentrate on routine tasks and a general lack of patience with small irritations all can be
called signs of heat frustration. Even when temperatures are not high enough to cause
physical problems, several studies indicate that increased temperatures do have a direct
connection with increased aggressive behavior. Bibliography lists 10 sources.
