We have looked many topics thus far in biology, and have learned how to think critically. As the last assignment, a right of passage into applying scientific principles to the outside world, you will write a paper over a controversial topic in biology. You will approach the matter from a scientific perspective. This means you will have to read scientific journal articles.How to approach a topic and the information you should include:1) What is currently known about the subject? (requires research: must be actual scientific articles not webpages, philosophical diatribes, or some shady article you found in wikipedia)2) What areas of the topic are not well understood, or needs further research? (make sure you really do your homework, don't accept wide ranging statements made on politically driven websites)2) Discuss where the controversy arises when the science meets society. Why does the topic really matter to the advancement of the human race? If it doesn't matter than why is it so politically charged, and why not discuss something that does matter?Bonus (10 points):Design a project or a company that could be involved in improving other peoples lives based on the information you discovered above.Be creative. Make something new and innovative. Post your ideas in the discussion board under the abstract of your paper. See instructions for submission in this folder.
