The most adored section of science is the biological study. Biology is vital to the society because it studies life, living organisms and all the aspects that are concerned with their well being. This section of science also studies the origin, evolution, structure, function and the growth of living organisms. This study deals with different aspects of life. The most studied section is the genetics (Rebecca Johnson, 2006).

Chimeras’ is mostly common in non-human zoology but also occurs in human though it is a rare phenomenon. This is an animal that has two or more different populations of genetically distinct cells originating in different zygotes during sexual reproduction. There are two types of chimeras that occur in human. The microchimerism, which results when a small part of the body posses cell line distinct from the other parts of the body. The Tetragametic chimerism results when two separate ova are fertilized by two sperms and produces two zygotes (Rebecca Johnson, 2006).

Due to medical complications, organs may be moved from one body to another or donor site for the purpose of replacing the damaged or absent organs. Apart from the organs, tissues are also transplanted. The organs that can be transplanted are the kidney, heart, lungs, liver, intestines, pancreas and thymes, the most transplanted organ being the kidney followed by the liver and then the lungs. The tissues that are mostly transplanted are the cornea and musculoskeletal grafts (Rebecca Johnson, 2006).

There are differences between Darwinism and Creationism, the main areas of difference being based on data and belief. Darwinism is scientifically oriented thought, it explains that living things have a common ancestors and evolution is what gives rise to ne...

The global warming affects the whole ecosystem while the ocean acidification threatens the entire marine food chain. The acidification of the ocean is caused by the absorption of carbon dioxide by the ocean waters. Therefore the core cause of ocean acidification is the emission of green house gases especially the carbon dioxide gas since this is also the same gas that contributes to the global warming (Oswald Schmitz, 2007).
