Fetal Personhood and Abortion: A Comparative Analysis

Mary Anne Warren's Criteria for Personhood

Mary Anne Warren would likely argue that a six-week-old fetus does not meet the criteria for personhood. She outlines five conditions necessary for an entity to be considered a person:

1. Consciousness and the capacity to feel pain.
2. Reasoning ability.
3. Capacity for self-motivated activity.
4. Ability to communicate.
5. Self-awareness and self-concepts.

According to Warren, if a fetus does not fulfill all five conditions, it cannot be considered a person. Therefore, she would likely support the permissibility of abortion in this case.

George and Lee's Argument for Fetal Moral Status

In contrast, George and Lee would argue that abortion is morally wrong because it involves... Continue reading "Fetal Personhood and Abortion: A Comparative Analysis of Warren, George, and Lee" »

Natural Resource Mining & Exploitation

The exploitation of natural resources involves various technologies, costs, and often unprofitable markets.

Types of Mining Activity

• Surface Mining: Includes mines and quarries.
• Underground Mining: Extraction from beneath the Earth's surface.
• Underwater Mining: Utilizes dredgers for resource recovery.
• Drilling Wells: For liquid and gaseous resources.

Modern Mining Challenges

Today's mining activities face significant problems, including environmental degradation, excessive resource extraction, and social conflicts.

Geodynamic Model

The lithosphere is the outermost layer of the geosphere, composed of the crust and upper mantle. It is divided into plates with clearly defined boundaries coinciding with major landforms. The mesosphere is the largest part of the geosphere and corresponds to the part of the mantle that does not form part of the lithosphere. The core is the center of the planet, consisting of an outer core and an inner core.

Age of the Seabed

Research projects have established that the seabed is expanding slowly, with new lithosphere formed on either side of the ridge axis. Paleomagnetism and magnetometers have provided evidence for the Earth's magnetic field and the symmetrical distribution of paleomagnetism bands on the seabed.

Theory of Plate

The Seismic Method

An indirect method of study that looks at the variations in the propagation speed of seismic waves as they travel through different materials inside the geosphere.

What are Seismic Waves?

Vibrations generated inside the Earth at the point where an earthquake takes place. They propagate in all directions, and the more rigid the material they pass through, the more quickly they travel. There are three types:

• P waves: Cause the material to vibrate, alternating between compression and dilation. These waves propagate through solids and liquids.
• S waves: Cause the material to oscillate perpendicular to the direction of propagation. They are slower and cannot travel through liquids.
• Surface waves: Generated when P and S waves reach the
