Vivisection to Save Human Life

Vivisection is a controversial topic to discuss in health-related experiments. There are many arguments regarding the animals  used in this medical testing method. It is important that vivisection should be used in medical experiments, although there are other opinions against this procedure.

There are opinions expressing disagreement using vivisection to test medicine. It is because there is no certainty of using vivisection as a sustainable technique to discover cures. In clinical trials, 90% percent of medicines successfully tested by vivisection fail for humans because there are many different body functions between humans and animals. Furthermore, there is alternative research method to find a cure such as applying  the similar species' cells, tissues and organs like adult stem cells which provide no complications or problems   associated with tissue rejection. In addition, vivisection  wastes an overwhelming amount of money every year just to make low-grade medicine.

However, there are also many arguments to support vivisection to be used to discover  medical treatment. Firstly, there are very limited choices of animal experiments and vivisection is one of them which is essential in scientific advance is completed. There would be no cures, or new surgical method, cancer drugs or effective antibiotic if scientists took no advantage of animals in laboratories. Moreover, scientists treat animals like humans and practice  an appropriate method to conduct vivisection and there are no animals being hurt throughout the research.  For example, animal surgery is carried out by very qualified scientists  using anesthetics just like human procedures. This procedure is performed under  government supervision according to animal welfare laws and there are no endangered animals  used, only animals with a large-scale population such as mice, rabbits and frogs.

Although there are many opinions against vivisection as a research procedure to find better medical treatment, there are also many arguments to support this experiment method.  Based on the supporting arguments showed, vivisection should be used for medical experiments.

Girls-only School is The Best Model of Education

The issue of the best school system for children is a very interesting topic to discuss. There are many opinions and research on whether co-education or single-sex education such as girls-only schools is a better model of school system. This essay will explain the reasons why  girls-only school is the best.

Research shows that students who have academic problems are more successful in the study and exams if they go to girls-only schools. For instance, a comparison study  between 71,286 girls-only school students and 647,942 co-education students showed that students of girls-only schools did  much better on exams than co-education with 20% of the students did worse. The academic approach in girls-only schools is better in improving girls confidence. Girls can be excellent in anything and no body would complain when girls like boys lessons.

Moreover, there are many dissimilarities between boys and girls. Girls differ in the way of study such as they have a propensity to study in silence while boys are more energetic and dynamic. Girls also differ in the stage of maturity and enjoy different things from boys. Furthermore, girls are often controlled  by boys. For example, in  science classes where girls just record the result of the experiments and boys take the power on the practical side in experiments.

In addition, girls-only schools can reduce peer sexual harassment that commonly happens to girls. It might be correlated with the high interaction between girls and boys in co-education schools that could be a trigger to boys to harass girls in many forms. For example, in April 2013, there were 5 elementary school boys in South Sulawesi who sexually harassed their peer. In girls-only school, girls would be more protected from the risk of sexual harassment.

In conclusion, based on the research and ideas that boys and girls are different and require a distinctive approach in the teaching process and considering the risk of sexual harassment that might happen in co-education system, single-sex education is the best school system.
