Abstract Being different is one of the most difficult things in this world. One is better off in society following the norm. As research will show in this paper‚ the gay and lesbian community worldwide has suffered manifold afflictions in the name of being different. I researched on the topic of homosexuality mostly using the internet. One of the points I cover is the question of whether homosexuality has a biological component‚ and if so‚ whether it is right for people to try and alter that biological

Biological Anthropology Biological Anthropology is the study of human biology within the framework of evolution. There are four subfields of Biological Anthropology; genetics‚ human variation‚ paleoanthropology‚ and primatology. Primatology is the study of non-human primates and I find it the most interesting of the four subfields. The study of Primatology focuses on the biological and psychological aspects of non-human primates. Also it looks at the similarities shared between humans and primates

A split second later‚ I saw a big black shape crash into a bush. It was a wild female bonobo with an infant on her back. At the same time‚ I saw her and I wanted to get this rope off and jump into Sophie’s arms. Jerking into the air‚ I tried to reach up to try and grasp the knot.

Consciousness is a tricky concept‚ both in its definition and its attribution. Here‚ “consciousness” refers to a cognitive process involving self-awareness and wakefulness; this paper will be specifically concerned with self-awareness‚ which seems to be a minimum requirement of conscious experience. I propose that the evolutionary history of consciousness likely began in large-bodied‚ arboreal apes with the development of a bodily self-awareness and sense of personal agency‚ allowing them to successfully
