Forensic science is any science used for the purposes of the law, and therefore provides impartial scientific evidence for use in the courts of law, and in a criminal investigation and trial. Forensic science is a multidisciplinary subject, drawing principally from chemistry and biology, but also from physics, geology, psychology, social science, etc.

This website is an interactive learning tool that explores the concept of replicators as it relates to a number of different and diverse fields of study. Replicators - the fundamental units of any process of natural selection - were first defined by evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins as any entities of which copies are made. The concept of replicators has diverse applications in a variety of areas, including biology, sociology, linguistics, and philosophy. The site uses an interactive, hands-on style of instruction to engage visitors in an active process of learning and retaining information. Interactive demonstrations that are both entertaining and informative are used and integrated to reinforce major concepts and enrich traditional text-based education. Visitors are encouraged not only to investigate our demonstrations, but also to become part of our community by sharing their thoughts and opinions with other visitors.

"Webcytology: An Exploration of Unicellular Life" is a comprehensive resource for students who wish to learn about unicellular biology [cytology, the study of cells]. The site features an interactive simulation in which users create their own species of life and then put it to the test in a virtual petri dish where it responds to varying environmental conditions and interacts with other people?s organisms. Webcytology also includes an extensive reference section with information appropriate for students at both the beginner and AP Biology levels, message boards where students can share their ideas and questions with others, a glossary of biology terms, and interactive quizzes.

In our entry, we have provided information on the various systems including the nervous system, circulatory system, digestive system, respiratory system, muscular system, skeletal system and excretory system. Under each system we have given the various topics of interest like the working of the sytem, its parts, etc. We have given a link to the home page, containing links to all the systems, in every page. We have also put up images showing all necessary details, under each heading, which we hope would surely be giving them a good idea about their own body. The videos with the explanations are sure to improve the knowledge of the viewers. Our entry's main objetive is to provide the readers with enough information about their own body, so that they can maintain it and keep it free from diseases.

Biometrics is a new and rising field that few people know about, yet have seen in entertainment. Biometrics involves identifying people based on physical characteristics, such as the patterns of the iris. In movies, spies may need to use fingerprint identification to get into certain secret areas. The public is using biometrics increasingly. ATM's are now using iris scans instead of numbers. This web site provides a comprehensive introduction guide to biometrics.

This webpage is all about cells. It gives the basic infomation on the basic unit of life. We deal with different types of cells that could be found, in both plants and animals.
This is to provide a platform for all other biological topics, because every tissue and organ is made up of cells.
We decide to be a little more original than to download pictures from internet sites, by using visualizer to project magnified pictures of cells on the white screen and taking photographs of them.
Scanning is needed to upload it onto the computer.

The entry explores those unique aspects of human thinking. The first
tab looks at some of the landmark thinking model developers by era,
which we call "thinking history." Secondly, we examine some of the
physical aspects with a dynamic model of the brains control area
in a two-frame JavaScript popup window. This section examines
learning theories and language as a cognitive skill set. Thirdly,
we examine classical reasoning processes: syllogisms, classification,
and illustrate the rules of proper thinking with stuffed animal
examples. Fourthly, we move into scientific method and some
simple statistical theory. After all this theory, we cover
modern symbolism with illustrated truth tables. The most extensive
coverage, both theory and illustration, is of argument formation
theory. We take an intermission with a bivalue logic game page
and then finish off with logic and fuzzy logic. Fuzzy logic is
a very difficult concept to present. We have tried to simplify
the theory by illustrating that this type of logic model tries
to accomodate the fact that objects change over time. Thus, the
static theories of Aristotle's "pure" logical model where every
object can be put into its set or class, breaks down through
morphology. Section 9 deals more with the details of the
educational objectives (see below).

We hoped to teach other kids about what the Genome Project is, so when they see it mentioned in the future it will have some meaning for them. We live in a town where we see it mentioned often in the paper (because there is an arm of it at the University of Iowa here, yet we didn't have a clear picture at all about what activities the Genome Project might be doing. We thought that if we were curious about it, then other kids might be too. And besides, we were sure that Genetics is a very important field, and something that we should know more about to have lots of options open to us in deciding about our future careers (and so thought other kids might feel the same way).

Evolution... what is it? During the Cambrian era (nearly 540 million years ago), lots of animals evolved in a relatively short amount of time. Scientists have found that the first appearance of animals with limbs and animals with segmented bodies, as well as the first predators with jaws, claws, and teeth all appeared during this same time period Find out why the Cambrian Period is sometimes referred to as biology's Big Bang.
