and• I think Cloning AND the Death Penalty are

controversial issues.

Page 12: CURRENT ISSUES. INTRODUCTIONS I think Cloning is good. Clonagem Pena de morte Engenharia genética Controle de armas Aborto Eutanásia

• Eu acho que Clonagem E Pena de Morte são assuntos controversos.

Page 13: CURRENT ISSUES. INTRODUCTIONS I think Cloning is good. Clonagem Pena de morte Engenharia genética Controle de armas Aborto Eutanásia

but• I think cloning is a controversial issue, BUT

Global Warming is not.

Page 14: CURRENT ISSUES. INTRODUCTIONS I think Cloning is good. Clonagem Pena de morte Engenharia genética Controle de armas Aborto Eutanásia

• Eu acho que clonagem é um tema controverso, MAS Aquecimento Global não é.

Page 15: CURRENT ISSUES. INTRODUCTIONS I think Cloning is good. Clonagem Pena de morte Engenharia genética Controle de armas Aborto Eutanásia

although• ALTHOUGH cloning is a controversial issue,

Global Warming isn´t.

Page 16: CURRENT ISSUES. INTRODUCTIONS I think Cloning is good. Clonagem Pena de morte Engenharia genética Controle de armas Aborto Eutanásia

• EMBORA Clonagem seja um assunto controverso, Aquecimento Global não é.

Page 17: CURRENT ISSUES. INTRODUCTIONS I think Cloning is good. Clonagem Pena de morte Engenharia genética Controle de armas Aborto Eutanásia

because• It´s hard for me to talk about Abortion

BECAUSE it is a very controversial issue.

Page 18: CURRENT ISSUES. INTRODUCTIONS I think Cloning is good. Clonagem Pena de morte Engenharia genética Controle de armas Aborto Eutanásia

• É dificil, para mim, falar sobre Aborto PORQUE é um assunto muito controverso.

Page 19: CURRENT ISSUES. INTRODUCTIONS I think Cloning is good. Clonagem Pena de morte Engenharia genética Controle de armas Aborto Eutanásia

instead of• I prefer to talk about the Death Penalty,

INSTEAD OF talking about Abortion.

Page 20: CURRENT ISSUES. INTRODUCTIONS I think Cloning is good. Clonagem Pena de morte Engenharia genética Controle de armas Aborto Eutanásia

• Prefiro falar sobre a Pena de Morte, AO INVÉS DE falar sobre Aborto.

Page 21: CURRENT ISSUES. INTRODUCTIONS I think Cloning is good. Clonagem Pena de morte Engenharia genética Controle de armas Aborto Eutanásia

so• Abortion is a very controversial issue, SO I will

talk about Global Warming.

Page 22: CURRENT ISSUES. INTRODUCTIONS I think Cloning is good. Clonagem Pena de morte Engenharia genética Controle de armas Aborto Eutanásia

• O Aborto é um assunto muito controverso, ENTÃO falarei sobre Aquecimento Global.

• The main point here is that there are some types of sex determination on the• earth. It depends on the species.• In addition, I want to point out that the sex of human being is determined• by the production of hormones. As everyone knows, every beings have DNA. In• human case, the 23rd pair of chromosomes in the cell has influence to human sex.• Human being has the X chromosome and the Y one. If the 23rd pair was XX, the• human is female. On the other hand, if the pair was XY, the human is male. So the• sex of human being is decided by the pair.• Also of importance is the fact that some kinds of fishes can change their own• sex after they were born. The mechanism is unknown, but actually the sex can• change from the male to female if there were only two males or females. Moreover,• the tempareture of water influence to fish's sex. High tempareture bring them to• male, low tempareture bring them to female, and middle tempareture bring them• both sex.• The final feature that I would note is that some other species, such as birds• and bataflies, have totally different chromosomes, WandZ. The mechanizm of sex• determination is similar to human being, but of course it is not exactly some as• humans because of types of chromosomes.
