Based on this health risk, it is necessary to intensify the control on the use of marijuana, prohibit its use, or even make changes, which regulate the usage by pregnant women ...

Social attitude to abortion is primarily defined by moral norms and traditions of society, living conditions. In recent decades, abortion has become one of the most intensely and diversely debated issues of the moral theory. Defenders of abortion rights and their opponents do not agree among themselves even in the terminology of the dispute. Opponents argue that the problem here is the following: whether or not the embryos should not be killed, like other human beings. Advocates believe the central question here is whether it is possible to force a woman to bear an unwanted fetus even at the cost ...

Pregnancy Is Treated as a Disease in Today’s Society, in Canada

Pregnancy is considered as a natural phenomenon. Whereas some people believe that pregnancy is a disease and it has to be treated before giving birth to a child (McKay, 2006). Pregnancy is a God gifted thing and nobody can interrupt this system. Although there might be some diseases attached with the pregnancy, but considering pregnancy as a disease itself is wrong. Diabetes and hypertension are commonly known complaints of pregnant women in Canada. The reason for this is not pregnancy, but the excessive weight gain, breast cancer and HIV during the pregnancy (Tata, et. al. 2005).

Problem statement: To study and analyze the Canadian pregnancy treatment.

The significance of the study: The main purpose ...

Teenage pregnancies have been reported over the recent past. Teenage pregnancy might be considered the pregnancy of female below 20 years. Nancy Bonvillain in her book Women and Women writes that “people in every culture maintain and transit ideas about the roles that women and men perform, the rights they have in relation to each other, and the values associated with their activities” (4). Certainly, this transcends over roles into other cultural factors that affect the relationship between men and women. In most cases, these cultural aspects of gender relationship are constructs that are built and made to become ...

Abortion is the process of destroying a human fetus while in the womb (Grimes, 2013). This topic is considered to be one of the most controversial issues globally (Grimes, 2013). The support or disapproval of this practice has a potential of eliciting mixed reactions since it involves human life. The United States Constitution legalized abortion in 1973. From this period, more than 50 million abortions have been procured (Dennis et al., 2009). In as much as this subject remains a highly controversial issue, abortions obtained by minors elicit an even higher degree of interest and involvement. Therefore, this paper ...

Introduction and Theoretical Framework

Abortion can surely be taken to be a physical as well as mental strain for the females. It needs to be reckoned that abortion and the factors influencing it are highly influenced by the issues related to gender inequality and patriarchy. Ideally the females should have the utmost liberty and decision-making power in matters relating to child-birth as well as abortion. But, in practice, the scenario is quite different with the predominance of males coming into play in such a major decision of life.

Statement of the Problem

While there can be debates about ethical nature of the matter, the facet of gender ...

Introduction

Perinatal depression is increasingly becoming a worldwide mental illness that affects expectant mothers. Although depression has always been categorized by world Health Organization (WHO) as a silent killer disease, perinatal depression continue to attract more attention due to its adverse effect on an entire family support system. It puts both the health of the mother, unborn baby, and the newly born at risk, and this risk is gradually transmitted to other family members who are taking care of them. More disheartening is the fact that this disease is more prevalence among the low-income mothers and those in the underserved ...

Genome imprinting is the latest technique that has genetically modified the face of infertility; it is an epigenetic phenomenon through which the parental origin of a gene is determined based on its expression. 1 There are a vast number of genes in mammals that are marked with their parental origin, and the result of this phenomenon is a single parental allele. These marked genes are known as “imprinted.” They rely on the epigenetic machinery determining their parental identity and maintaining their origin-specific gene expression. There are 100 imprinted genes estimated in human and 200 ...

Introduction

It goes without saying that life without good health and peace is of no relevance. The very purpose of living is defeated if there is an absence of good health that can sustain the need of life, learning, and future challenges. One of the challenges of modern times is deformities at the time of birth. According to Lannucci (2000), "Birth defects are abnormalities that are present in an infant at birth. They include visible, structural abnormalities as well as inherited disease" (P. 7).

Statement of research

The purpose of this study is to identify the elements and features of birth defects, and ...

Summary of the Topic

Polygamy entails a practice or the state of having more than one marital partner at the same time while monogamy involves sticking to one spouse. Biologists, anthropologists, and archaeologists have been trying to find a solution to the complicated query of whether human beings are polygamous or monogamous. Research teams have reviewed the variations of human DNA to that of animals and have come across several ways to explain the evolution of people from a polygamous setup to one that requires more intimacy. This essay assesses articles and books that attempt to understand how evolution has affected polygamy and ...

In archeology, DNA analysis has been used as an investigatory tool since it became available to scientists. DNA analysis, which is a constantly developing and expanding field, has allowed archaeologists to precisely and decisively obtain results that solve archaeological, historical, and evolutionary questions. Unfortunately, the methods for using ancient DNA analysis tend to destroy the samples from which the DNA is extracted. The results can easily be affected by external contamination as well, which requires the research to be conducted within specialized laboratories by trained laboratory personnel (Arandjelovic, Guschanski, Schubert, Harris, Thalmann, Siedel, & Vigilant, 2009).
DNA analysis has been ...

Introduction

Banded mongooses are small carnivorous animals which live in male-dominated groups of between 5-40 individuals. The 2 kg animal is of a great interest for scientific research because of their peculiar lifestyle in which they use the concept of social learning to pass their foraging traditions from one generation to another. As carnivorous animals, they feed on a variety of preys which require the use of extractive foraging techniques. Here, the pups which are entirely dependent on the adults are introduced into the foraging techniques as they grow up. In this situation, the young non-breeding male adults (escorts) spend their time ...
