  1. Hello, I'm having a bit of a problem. I'm not sure if this is the right forum to post this in, if it's even the right website. Anyways, please answer if you can. You see, I created an HTML web page with Microsoft Notepad. I'm really proud of it, and I want to share it with the world. The only problem is, I tried finding a free domain hoster, but nothing worked for me. I'm not familiar with the computer language. I didn't understand, really, anything on Atspace. So, now my question: Is it possible to create a link (like "www.scienceforums.net") to my file? If so, how? If I wanted to post my web page on the Internet, would I have to pay up? If it helps any, the file is located in C:\Program Files\Internet\www\Chat Groups.htm. Even if you can't answer this, thanks.
  2. True. That's why I said that I was not good at genetics....Oh, well. I guess that's the reason they have different dog and cat breeds, isn't it.... I'm only in high school. *sigh* Interesting theory.
  3. No. No warning system is ever good enough. That's why it's called a 'warning' system. Because it can only warn people about incoming danger. People still get hurt, lives are still lost, and homes are still destroyed. Now, the perfect tsunami system would hand out surplus supplies (food, water, blankets, etc...) to the general population, and then some. It would be able to set up a defense mechanism around the area in danger. It would get people out safely, and provide shelter for them until it is safe. In a perfect world, no homes would be destoryed and those nuclear reactors in Fukushima wouldn't have had sea water pumped into them (because they would be running safe and sound). But, this is not a perfect world. The tsunami warning system we have is good enough...to a point. It's all we have, for now.
  4. That depends on the type of virus. If it's a genetic virus, it could of come from multiple things: interbreeding, genetic mutations, damages to the psychological mind. If it's the physical virus, it's from external subjects, like: bacteria, harmful chemicals, and whatnot.
  5. The only thing I could strangle out of my few resources is that a misanthrope is somebody who hates humanity, or dislikes and distrusts other people, and so tends to avoid others.
  6. Goodness, no! It's called religion. Haven't you heard of it, before? Or do you not actually know what creationism is? All Christians believe in creationism.
  7. Probably not. For one, your thoughts, however lustfull they may be, don't effect your physical side, which is where puberty would stand. For two, I always thought it was puberty that effected lustful thoughts...
  8. Just a thought, here, but perhaps men try not to cry as easily because of the whole dominance thing. In most, if not all, species, the males tend to try to be more dominant over other males, yes? Why not in humans? Maybe we see the women as crying more, when it's actually the men who aren't crying very much.
  9. Sex is, in fact, a primal instinct. All humans are equipped with instincts, such as the urge to be around other humans. One of these instincts is the need to reproduce. Actually, all organisms have this instinct. Now, say this instinct didn't exist. Then nothing and nobody would have the urge to have sex and continue the population of life forms on Earth. And thus, everything would cease to exist. Also, it might be possible that this instinct is the cause of the natural urge in women to protect children. Without that instinct, children would die in their early years of life. So, that being said, obviously sex is a primal urge. If not, then why are we even here, today?
  10. I would think not, since dreams are in the subconscious part of the mind, which isn't connected with your physical body. Of course, your dream could always scare you into cardiac arrest...
  11. I believe dr.syntax is correct. It is natural instict for us women to protect children. It might have something to do with a girl's menstrual cycle...Perhaps this urge kicks in at puberty?
  12. For me, remembering something from a long time ago is easier than remembering something that happened five minutes ago. The farthest I can remember back is this one day, when I was riding a pony during a fair. It's not very vivid, though. The second oldest and most vivid of my early childhood was of when I was two/three. I remember being grounded on the day of my birthday, because I disobeyed my mother. I can even remember something as insignificant as standing on my knees. I don't remember how old I was, but I do remember there being some couch cushions around me...
  13. First off, you should never go with what will make you the most successful. My father, who is a great mean, told me once that it's not important if you become famous or successful or not. What's important is that you choose the work that you love the most. It could be stripping at a club, as long as you're happy with it. Second, you seem like you would like Biology the best. Biology doesn't just cover one group of organisms. It covers everything living. Plants, animals, bugs...You name it. If it's alive, it's probably covered in Biology. Originally, I was going to go for it, but decided on Psychology, instead. And, if you decide you don't like it, you can always choose something else, instead. Trial and error. Third, I hope you find something that you like to do. Having a career isn't about making a lot of money or becoming famous. It may be a part of it, but it's having fun and enjoying your work. If you don't like what you do, then what's the point?
  14. Hm...I'm no genetics genius...In a scale from one to ten, I'd probably be a three...But, anyways. Correct me if I'm wrong, but the two species would have to have the same number of chromosomes in order to reproduce effectively. But, since they came from a common ancestor, then they probably have similar DNA, and it might be possible. For example, take the liger. The lion and tiger would have had to have the same number of chromosomes in order for the offspring to survive properly. So, they would have to have similar DNA. But, don't forget that there is a fine line to this. Make them too close, and the offspring could easily be infected by serious diseases. Not too far, not too close. As for your second question, it is most likely possible, if the dormant (dormant would be a better word if it had the potential to work again) organ was originally used, but became so after not needing it. I'm not explaining it properly. Like, for example, the appendix. It was once a working organ(?) once, but became dormant after not being needed. If the organ in your novel was once working, then the two species would have the potential gene to enable the organ, because their ancestors already had it and passed it down to their offspring, if interbreeding had been at play. Sigh. This is slightly troublesome, since that would mean that that species would be in risk of disease... So, all in all, it would be possible, but you'd have all these kinks and bumps along the way. Or maybe I'm just being too complicated. I don't know. Sorry for making this so long. As I said before, I'm not genetics expert. Hope this helps you out, anyways...
  15. In some ways, yes. At least, you can explain it physically and emotionally.
