Enzymes and the Krebs Cycle
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page paper discussing enzymes at their most basic
level. Comprised of amino acids, enzymes are the catalysts of myriad biochemical reactions. In keeping with the true nature of catalysts, they accelerate and enable reactions without being materially affected themselves. The second section of the paper presents a diagram of the Krebs or citric acid cycle. Taking place in the mitochondria of the cell, the citric acid cycle is the last in a series of steps that convert 'food' into 'energy.' Bibliography lists 5 sources.

Evidence of Violent and Non-Violent Cultures in Non-Human Primates
[ send me this paper ]
This 11
page report discusses the fact that when the concept of culture is examined in relationship
to biological anthropology, it offers insight to the ways in which certain behaviors have
developed and whether as they can be thought of as unique to one species or if there is a
biological predetermination to be addressed. Therefore, it is important to look at the
behaviors and cultures of different non-human primates and determine the ways in which
that has influenced the development of humanity. The author of the report uses the
example of violent (chimpanzees) and non-violent (bonobos) social relationships to
consider such questions. Bibliography lists 7 sources.

Evolution & Christian Theology
[ send me this paper ]
A 7 page research paper that examines whether or not Christian theology can accommodate scientific theories about the evolution. The writer, citing the emerging science of chaos and complexity theory, argues that science and theology can be reconciled. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

Evolution of Bacterial Pathogens
[ send me this paper ]
A 10 page discussion of the mechanisms through which bacterial pathogens evolve. Bacterial pathogens evolve in reference to a number of factors. These are both natural factors and manmade factors. Bacterial evolution in response to antibiotics is one example of this relationship. This evolution occurs both clinically and in areas such as uncontained landfills that have been the recipient of hospital wastes. Once bacteria evolve to reflect a resistance to antibodies they retain that evolutionary feature. Bibliography lists 6 sources.
