The Brain, Muscles, and Emotion
[ send me this paper ]
A 3 page discussion of the relationship that exists between the brain, emotions, and our body's muscles. Our brain, of course, controls most aspects of our physiology. It sends the electronic impulses that cause hormones and other chemical substances to the various components of our body. These, in turn, control such aspects of our lives as our emotions and even our muscular reflexes. Bibliography lists 3 sources.

The Effects of Antibiotics on Bacterial Growth
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page discussion of bacterial growth in the presence of antibiotics. Examines how bacterial growth is dependent on a number of their physiological mechanisms such as enzymes, proteins, and even the communication of one organism with another in a phenomenon referred to as quorum sensing. Emphasizes that it is critical to continue our quest to understand the specifics of how antibiotics influence bacterial growth. By improving our understanding and concentrating on developing antibiotics which only work on specific intracellular functions of bacteria we have a higher chance of improving the long-term health not only of human populations but also of those populations of plants and animals upon which we depend. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

The Evolution of Teeth
[ send me this paper ]
A 10 page outline of the evolution of teeth from the lower vertebrates to more advanced species such as man. Describes the origin of jaw structure and structures such as conodonts (minute toothlike structures) which were the precursors of advanced teeth. Outlines the further evolution of these teeth in the higher mammals with the appearance of features like the hypocone which expanded the grinding surface of teeth and resulted in an explosion of mammal species some forty thousand years ago. Bibliography lists 8 sources.
