Sunrise On The Veldt: Order :: essays research papers

Sunrise on the Veldt Order     Order is sought instinctively. In Literature, as well as Biology, rateis sought instinctively by authors and scientists. Authors use prescribe to conveyreal-life incidents and make their stories seem more realistic. Scientists use away of classification to bring order to Biology. The life rhythm, as the cycle ofa virus, shows order.     The young boy in the short story, "Sunrise on the Veldt," found order inthe life cycle. He sought this order to table service him explain the death of a buck.The death of the buck made the young boy think about the life cycle. He shot thebuck, and the buck became injured. consequently the buck died. An organism is born, itgrows, it lives for a period of time, thuslyce it dies. The human life cycle issimilar. A baby is born. The babys parents take care of it, then the baby turnsinto an adult. The adult lives for a period of time, then the adult dies. Humansseek order in the life cycle to help explain death. The order in the life cyclewas sought instinctively, because people wanted an explanation of death. Theorder in "Sunrise on the Veldt" was shown in the life cycle.     In the novel, The Wave, a teacher sought order to help keep hisclassroom under control. The order helped keep the classroom under control. Butthe students began to nonice they were not thinking, and the order began to tearthe school apart. The teacher sought order because he wanted his students tobehave better. Scientists use order to control viruses. Viruses are classifiedby several attributes their shape, the vectors that transmit them, and theirRNA or DNA content. Once a virus is classified, it can be examined, andcontrolled. Biologists use order to classify other organisms as well. CharlesDarwin sought order instinctively by becoming a naturalist. He studied animalsand plants and devised a theory of evolution. He decided that variations existwit hin populations. about variations are more advantageous for survival andreproduction than others. Organisms produce more offspring than can survive.Over time, offspring of survivors will make up a larger proportion of thepopulation. Darwin believed that organisms produce more offspring so that thestronger offspring can live, but the weak offspring die. Darwin, the virus cycle,and The Wave portray order being sought instinctively.     A virus seeks order instinctively. A virus attaches itself to a host.Then it enters into the host by exchanging its DNA or RNA. The virus thenreplicates itself, inside the host.
