    When you are pregnant, it is important that you watch what you put into your body. Consumption of illegal drugs is not safe for the unborn baby or for the mother. Studies have shown that consumption of illegal drugs during pregnancy can result in miscarriage, low birth weight, premature labor, placental abruption, fetal death, and even maternal death.

    Domestic violence is usually shown as man being the abusive and dominant partner. Over the past four decades, research shows that the self-reported abuse is equal between men and women. A study by Professor John Archer of the University of Central Lancashire said that men and women are equally likely to commit domestic violence, however severe injuries more commonly affect woman.

    How do you explain the duality of scientific evidence logically pertaining to the results of meta studies both proving and disproving climate change effects and signs?

    Again I will ask how do you personally explain the duality of scientific evidence? The last time I check the currently elected administration is not taking English 102 or 101, sharing fact based articles or an attempt there unto pertaining. How do you personally defend your argument against the duality of scientific research; That in the last 30 years the atmosphere over the Antarctic has repaired itself over 150,000,000 square miles despite the increase of carbon emissions?

    Americans' assessments of their personal freedom have significantly declined under President Obama, according to a new study from the Legatum Institute in London, and the United States now ranks below 20 other countries on this measure. The research shows that citizens of countries including France, Uruguay, and Costa Rica now feel that they enjoy more personal freedom than Americans.

    Proponents of GM foods say that the higher yields and improved nutritional content are necessary to ensure adequate food for the world's growing population. Opponents say any claimed benefits of GM foods are unproven, and cite the lack of safety studies and the real and potential dangers to human health and the environment as reasons to ban the products.

    After skimming the article it is safe to say these GMO foods have several negative effects on the human health and environmental health. Environmentalists fear farmers will need to spray crops with pesticides is upsetting. These GMO foods are doing more harm than good and should be banned. The fact stated about independent farmers are at risk of being sued or having to pay a fee for there crops being contaminated is disgusting and seems to be another was for the system to profit more money.

    I enjoyed reading the article and have been somewhat following the issue of GMO's for a couple of years. Anytime a company (Monsanto) owns a majority of a product in a free enterprise society, that is when people should be worried. Not only has Monsanto's product been proven unsafe-the company is forming a monopoly.

    GMO's are absolutely terrible. I'm excited to learn more about them just so that I can watch my health later on in life. I'm currently also doing my research paper on GMO's with food and nutrition. I can't wait to take my Patho class as well just so I can learn exactly how GMO's affect the human body.

    Climate change is an important issue that has an impact far outside the present. I thought the author made an interesting point at the beginning of his article, when he talked about how after 9-11 we found terror but when it comes to climate change people look the other way.

    Hurricane Harvey is one of the many signs that climate change is a threat to our planet. The article states that "last year was the third year in a row to set a record for highest global average surface temperature " and since then other studies and reports have only further proven these dacts.

    Overcrowding in classes often limits how much help students can get. Overcrowding in classrooms takes away that one-on-one time teachers need to have with their students. It will be harder for teachers to fund a study plan that works for everyone.

    A study exhibiting the rate of mortality in the public and how income inequality, trust between social classes, etc, cause a shift in the respective populations. It was found in the conclusion that enough evidence supported the hypothesis to be true that the previously mentioned factors DID lower mortality rate in lower socioeconomic populations.
