THEORIES OF EVOLUTION

THEORIES OF EVOLUTION

Introduction

Several opinions had been made available to explain the origin and
existence of various forms of life. The existing living beings show characteristic
resemblances in form and functions.

There are evidences for succession of several types of living organisms occupying earth. Populations of animals and Plants tend to undergo predictable changes in their population intensities.

An explanation to all these interesting natural happenings had been
attempted through various modern theories of evolution. An initiation for such
evolutionary thought process was well provided by Lamarck.

This evolutionary theorizing culminates in the modern synthetic theory of
evolution afforded by different fields in biology. (THEORIES OF EVOLUTION)

Root Canal Treatment

Image
Root Canal Treatment Root Canal Treatment is a modern dental procedure to save a tooth in which the pulp (the living tissue within a tooth) has died or become untreatably diseased, usually as a result of extensive dental caries. Steps involved in Root Canal Treatment (1) A hole is drilled into the crown to remove all material from the pulp chamber. The root canals are then cleaned with fine-tipped instruments. The procedure is usually monitored by X-rays. (2) The cavity is washed out, and antibiotic paste and a temporary filling are packed into it. Some days later, the filling is removed and the canals are checked for sterlity. (3) When no infection can be detected, the cavity is filled with a sealing paste and/or tapering solid “point” made of gutta – percha resin mixed with zinc and bismuth oxides. The mouth of cavity is then sealed with cement. Related Topics in Zoology: Bio Zoology All Important Topics Human Physiology Introduction Nutrition Carbohydrates Poly hydroxyaldehydes...

Eye Infections and Eye Care

Image
Eye Infections and Eye Care Eye Infections 1. Stye A stye is an acute infection of the glands located at the eyelid margin. There is swelling, pain, itching and redness in a small area at the lid margin. Treatment consists of using frequent warm compresses on the eye. (Eye Infections) 2. Conjunctivitis: Infection in the conjuctiva is called conjunctivitis. Due to the infection the invisible blood vessels within the conjunctiva become engorged. Inflammation of the conjuctiva causes redness, discomfort and a discharge from the affected eye. The most common causes for conjunctivitis are infections (in children) and allergy (in adults). (Eye Infections) 2a. Infective conjunctivitis : Most conjunctival infection are caused by bacteria (e.g staphylococci) and are spread by hand-to-eye contact or by viruses associated with a cold, sore throat, or illness such as measles, viral conjunctivitis sometimes occurs in epidemics, spreading rapidly through schools and other groups. (Eye Infections) 2b...
