Cell Phones and Cancer
http://www.naturalnews.com/035602_cell_phones_radiation_cancer.html

Summary:
              Past studies have shown mixed results about whether or not cell phones cause brain cancer. However the newest research seems to show that it is definite. The article explains what research is being done and how the problem is trying to be resolved. Scientists are worried that the weaker skulls of children may cause an increase in brain cancer over time. Right now people are only worried about long time exposure to radiation from cell phones. With ten years of continued use doubling your chance for cancer and cell phone usage increasing only time will tell how dangerous they truly are.

Connection:
                   Cells duplication plays a large role in all cancers. The fear in this study is that radiation from cell phones is causing it to happen more often. As we study cells we should pay attention to the way they duplicate and form cancers so that we can better help to treat cancer.

  3. Do you think that this should be taught in school? I mean, it is very useful to learn, but are some people just too attached to their phones, making this useless information?
