Answer 1

Most people can relate to a time period in 1908, a hundred years ago.  Look up what kinds of cars they drove.  Find the statistics for birth and death rates, crop yields and any other kinds and types of statistics that you can compare with those of today.

Compare all those percentages with the amounts being spent on medical and technological R & D.

I don't know the answers.  I'm just guessing that much more money was being spent on technological research than there was medical.  Based on population and incomes, the country boasted of few millionaires.

The increasing number of millionaires from one decade to the next led to the funding of major research centers especially when the hospitals, research centers and universities also began marketing "Naming Rights".

As the wealth of the nation began to accelerate in growth so too did research and developement.

Most of this research data can be found in old almanacs like the NY Times Almanac, old encyclopaedias, Goggle.com and Amazon.com.  Maybe you could pay an under  classman  to do the research.  Pay him according to results. or get a younger sister to help.

Keep me informed with progress reports.  Maybe I can be of future help.

Answer 2

Dealing with Medical Technology you have to remember in hospitals when women go in labor they have to have equipment connected to them to have readings and records.....THINK ABOUT IT

Answer 3

Hay Sugar: As Medical Technologies improve, the life spam increases. People are sick less often, more babies live after birth, and populations grow. As for Agricultural; as populations grow the need for more food grows right along with it. The food supply must increase. If you have better Agriculture Technology you will be able to produces more food from the same land space, and you will be able to feed the increased population better which will help make them Healthier. It is a circle of life.

Answer 4

I certainly hope you aren't writing your report the way you wrote this question.  Unless of course your teacher is just as grammatically challenged as you are.

Answer 5

Look at how much longer people are living, on average, around the world.

Answer 6

I guess the best starting point is to examine critically the statements made for and against the technology in question. It would not make sense to start out cold with no awareness of claimed benefits and alleged problems.

If you are competent to evaluate these claims, well and good, but you may have to seek competent investigators in the field. I say investigators instead of authorities only to suggest that you need to have unbiased guidance.

Answer 7

well brown sugar, the designed world concept is similar to a designed organic garden in a hot house environment,(controlled weather) with clean water, living space, no weeds, no pollution, no bugs or disease(medical) due to exclusion technology

Answer 8

most medicines today and all from the past came from the enviroment namely plants and plant stuff, its odd that the more high tech we get the more we realize that the remedy(s) to  todays health problems is still to be found in nature.. now we are using hitech to justify the destruction of natural ecosystems... we have probably destroyed  sime plants that could have solved mnay present day health problems
