http://www.bbc.com/future/story/20130319-underwater-pharmacies

The coral reefs are locates in the underwaters, it have many differents shapes and colours and it ocuppy the 0'1% of the planet. These coral reefs are the home of thousands of marine species, specially this marine species uses the corals reefs to hide from the predators, to camuflage themselves or to hide from their preys. Many  of these marine animals have evolved chemical defences to protect themselves from predators. These marine species are fighting for a place in the corals, because are a source of food.

These powerful corals produce proteins that can may be the prescription of new medicines treat diseases like cancer, Alzheimer the treatment of virus and arthritis.Scientist have begin to collect thousands of compounds that offer the reefs and are puting on sale new market medication.

But we can't abuse of the corals reefs, because we put at risk the life of  many marine animals that serves as medicines.

I think that this corals reefs are the salvation of many diseases and it's good for the science and medicine, but we think with the life of the marine species, they can eat these proteins for cure themselves, and I think that abusing the coral reefs that could be a risk for many marine species that serves as medication.

UNIVERSITY OF BARCELONA

The Thursday 4th of February of this year we went on excursion with the high school at the University of Barcelona (UAB), because it was the open day for those students who have not yet decided what to do in the future. When we got the bus dropped us at the entranceof the university and we went to the faculties that were realized the differents meetings about the careers we could choose to do. The firts meeting begin at 10:30 o'clock and we had to rush to get there on time. In this case we entered in the faculty of letters and philosophy because we want to go at the meeting of psychology. In the meetig they were told that this career and what subjects are needed in this case: maths and biology. They also explained that the issue of the home for college students offered apartments within the grounds of the center or rent out an apartment outside the university. The meeting of psychology was well, but the second meeting that we went (nursing), i don't like it so much, because the cut of mark is much higher at the psychology and I know that I could not become.
 In conclusion it was an interesting excursion because the meetings help us throw i some subjects and others.

FRANKENSTEIN'S QUESTIONS

1) Should scientific research have limits? Ethics and Genetics. I think that the scientific research, if it have limits, because we have to think about the lives of the poor animals or plants which the scientifics use to make experiments or tries to discover new theories, but I think that discover new cells to cure persons are good for the future.
2) What is the relationship between human rationality and emotion? The relationship between these concepts is that the human rationality are the actions we do and the human emotion are the feeling that we have.
3)What is the role of the individual in relationship to society and the family? The role of the individual relationship to society are more closed or with fewer confidence that the relationship to the family, is in my case.
4) What are the consequences of judging by apparences only? To judge a person, first you have to know her charachter and emotions, sometimes you should not trust the apparences that we have, because in many cases fool us, and it may be the person who we judged be the person who will help us in the future.
5) Can you explore these dycothomies in the story?

• mortality/immortality: there are a succes of mortality when the family of Frankenstein was died in hands of the monster, and immortality, the monster feels immortality because he has created for a diversion of Frankenstein and the monster think that he must be immortal.
• hero/villain:  the hero of the story was Frankenstein, because he could create a new creature with torn pieces and many objects, and the villain of the story are the monster for kill the family of Frankenstein, but Frankenstein also was a villain because he don't build a wife for a monster.
• reason/emotion: the monster had a reason for kill the family of Frankenstein. because Victor don't help us, and emotion, when the monster meets her new family, because in the begining they look after the monster.
• individual/family/society: individual was the monster, because he not have any friends, the family was the family of Frankenstein, and the society was the people of the village who threw rocks ate the monster.
• happiness/tragedy: in the story we found the happiness of Victor Frankenstein when he created the monster, and the tragedy of the Victor's family who the monster have killed everybody.
