Biological Sciences

Biol 1090- Human Biology

 The Signature Assignment for this class was to read a 500 word article concerning human health or one of the Taking Side Issues. Upon reading it we were to analyze the article using the guide on page 24 of our text book and fill out the "short form" analysis sheet for the Taking Sides issues.  I chose to do mine on a controversial issue of the Taking Sides called "Is there a link between vaccination and autism."

       This was a very interesting article to read. I found that there were many statistics arguing that there is a link between vaccination and autism. Although there are many circumstantial links between the two, there is no scientific evidence to date that proves there is a link. Keeping that in mind, there was no scientific evidence offered to prove for certain there is a link between the two. I think more research ought to be done on the matter.

       Overall, I would say this was a beneficial class for me. Although I am not planning to become a scientist and will most likely not have to use things I learned in this class on a daily basis, I know I will call on the things learned here from time to time and be grateful I have that information. The professor was helpful in my education and provided me with a basic scientific knowledge of human biology.
