While the purpose of her existence was simply to provide the protein for medicinal purposes, the scientists took care of her and loved her as their own. Elsa even develops a maternal relationship with Dren, and it was later on revealed that Dren’s human DNA was from Elsa. But of course, with Splice being a horror film, it is not a surprise that as a creature being held in captivity all throughout her life, she’d rebel and demand for freedom in ways that are unusually scary and disturbing. Hormonal changes caused her to grow aggressive, leading her to kill out of spite and threaten to take the life of her “mother”.

The fourth movie of The Jurassic Park franchise takes place two decades after the preceding installment’s setting. Here, dinosaurs have become a rather common sight, having been available for viewing for decades. Geneticists then, instead of simply cloning more of the species the park had, decide to make a new attraction, something new and fresh to their collection – something with “more teeth”. The Indominus rex or the “Fierce or Untamable King” was created through gene splicing from different dinosaur and other animal species. This carnivorous giant is a hybrid of Gigantosaurus, Majungasaurus, Carnotaurus, Rugops, Therizinosaurus, Tyrannosaurus rex, Velociraptor, cuttlefish, tree frog, pit viper, and other unspecified present-day animals. The I.rex is deemed to be superior over other dinosaur species, having taken among the most impressive traits of its parent animals. Its agility and power resembles that of the T.rex, as the Tyrannosaurus is the Indominus’ base framework. Its size (above 40ft) is magnified through the trait of the Gigantosaurus, its increased number of teeth from the Majungasaurus, its osteoderms from the Rugops, and its hornlike growths from the eyes to its back from the Carnotaurus. The Indominus rex also possesses the abilities of camouflage, thermoregulation, infrared vision, and high intellectual capability from the cuttlefish, the tree frog, the pit viper, and the Velociraptor,

Were dinosaurs warm blooded or cold blooded: Before beginning the argument we have to understand the term endothermy (homeotherms) and ectothermy (poikilotherms) : Endotherms: (endo, “inside”) , animals exhibit endothermy ,when they warm their tissues by the production of metabolic heat. Homeothermy : animals that thermoregulate by physiological means (rather than just by behaviour) Were dinosaurs warm or cold blooded ? Ectotherms : (ecto , “outside”) , animals exhibit ectothermy when thermal conditions outside the bodies of these animals determine their body temperature. Poikilothermy : body temperature of the animal is determined by equilibration with the thermal conditions of the environment and varies as environmental conditions vary.

Woodland Park Zoo Some may argue that zoos in general are inhuman. I may agree with a portion of that statement, but the truth of the matter is the Woodland Park Zoo is not your typical zoo. Aside from being in the heart of one of the most visited cities in the country, Seattle. The zoo is a no profit origination that takes any and all proceeds the zoo makes and puts it back in the zoo.

Title Researchers and scientists have constructed extensive research on dinosaur’s extinction. Speculation instead of real evidence seems common in most theories about the dinosaurs’ extinction. However, Jay Gould’s essay “Sex, Drugs, and the Extinction of Dinosaurs” is the complete opposite of speculation over evidence. Rather, Gould uses the mix of persuasive techniques, such as rhetorical questions, logos, along with profound evidence to not only disapprove of other theories but convince readers of his place on the dinosaur’s extinction.

He uses juxtaposition when he says the movie will be “Jurassic Park meets Friday meets The Pursuit of Happyness,” creating a creature movie with the influence of “hood boys” (Smith, Dinosaurs in the Hood, line 2). In the last three lines of the first stanza, Smith uses imagery to paint the scene of an African American boy playing with a toy dinosaur as he gazes out his window to see a T.Rex because “there has to be a T. Rex.” Smith is saying that if this was a stereotype filled movie it would have to have a T.rex in it due to the overuse of that certain beast, but leaves the question open to if the dinosaur is stereotyped what African American cliches of the boy have to be in the

The twelve districts in theory should view the Hunger Games as the necessary tool that keeps Panem from uprising and self-destruction, however, the reception of the Games in the really poor districts clearly shows that the Capitol cannot reform them to think so. Statistically, the poor districts are always the most likely to lose one year’s competition because they lack resources to train tributes and their children are starving. Therefore, the response to the Hunger Games in the poor districts who are on the brink of starvation is the most dramatic. Citizens of districts such as 11 and 12 can only view the Games as injustice because once a child is chosen at the Reaping he or she is evidently doomed to die. There are rare exceptions as the

The Alaskan Bush is one of the hardest places to survive without any assistance, supplies, skills, and little food. Jon Krakauer explains in his biography, Into The Wild, how Christopher McCandless ventured into the Alaskan Bush and ultimately perished due to lack of preparation and hubris. McCandless was an intelligent young man who made a few mistakes but overall Krakauer believed that McCandless was not an ignorant adrenalin junkie who had no respect for the land. Krakauer chose to write this biography because he too had the strong desire to discover and explore as he also ventured into the Alaskan Bush when he was a young man, but he survived unlike McCandless. Krakauer’s argument was convincing because he gives credible evidence that McCandless was not foolish like many critics say he was.

Animal Rights Some people assume that just because animals cannot speak that they cannot feel pain. It is not okay to torture living beings that have their own thoughts and breathe the exact same air us humans breathe. It is unjust and selfish to stand by and take no action while everyday hundreds if not thousands of innocent animals die without reason. No matter how much fur or how many limbs the creature has; it should be treated as equal as a person. A heart beat is a heartbeat regardless of the body it’s in.
