Abstract: Having study natural selection and artificial selection we wanted to select for a trait on the plant Brassica rapa. We hypothesized that the leaf density is heritable and veritable. After our experiment we were able to conclude that our hypothesis was refuted because our average leaf density in our daughter population increased. Introduction: We are artificially selecting for a trait in the plant Brassica rapa. ( Wisconsin Fast Plant). Brassica rapa has been artificially selected

In the article “Scientists Create Artificial Womb That Could Help Prematurely Born Babies” by Rob Stein‚ the author informs the reader of a new scientific invention that mocks a womb and how it could potentially save prematurely born infants. Currently‚ the artificial womb has only been tested on‚ so far‚ eight underdeveloped animals‚ mostly lambs. Reports on previous and current experiments state that the device only allows the infants to develop “naturally” for around a month. A surgeon from the

Bionic leg prostheses are motor powered artificial limbs that are enabling amputees to pursue fully mobile lifestyles. Most of today’s leg prostheses are passive and require a lot of energy to use‚ this makes them more of a hindrance than a help on people’s lives. Conventional leg prostheses consist of spring structures that store and release elastic energy through each walking stance period and cannot generate more mechanical energy than that is stored during each step‚ this leads to 10-60% more
