<p>The paper deals with the problem of the moral status of human embryos <em>in vitro</em> obtained via somatic cell nuclear transfer, <em>in vitro</em> fertilization and similar biotechnologies. The purpose of research is to investigate whether it is possible to ascribe the position of full moral status to the embryo <em>in vitro</em> relying on its intrinsic properties. In particular, the property of totipotency of a human zygote was taken as presupposition in carrying out further moral assessments. To achieve these goals I have examined the applicability of the potentiality argument for evaluating moral status of the embryo within the frameworks of modal logic. The potential of the human embryo to become a person with full-fledged number of moral rights was interpreted using real, dispositional and counterfactual predicates. It was found that the role of potentiality argument is reduced to a precautionary principle and it failed to provide full moral status to the embryo <em>in vitro</em>. The potential of the embryo proper has a strong relational component that assigns it certain instrumental value. The latter implies that biomedical experimentation with the embryos <em>in vitro</em> cannot be considered as morally unacceptable.</p>

The main aim of my work - "Matter and Explanation. On Aristotle's Metaphysics Book Η" - is to show the argumentative unity of Book Η (VIII), which has been usually regarded as a mere collection of appendices to the previous Book Ζ. In my thesis I take on the main suggestion provided by M. Burnyeat in "A Map of Metaphysics Ζ" (2001). According to Burnyeat, Η accomplishes the enquiry of Ζ by developing Ζ17's fresh start into the analysis of sensible substances. Starting from Ζ17, Aristotle regards the notion of substance in its explanatory role as "principle and cause" and, as a consequence, he searches for "the cause by reason of which a certain matter is some definite thing". Burnyeat's suggestion has been so far followed in order to look at Η as at that place where this search is accomplished. Thus, Η would play a didactical-expository role. In my work I aim at showing how in Book Η Aristotle does not confine himself to a mere exposition of the previous outcomes. By contrast, he provides a deep revision of the status of matter's substancehood. Namely of that ontological subject whose organization must be explained. Such a revision concerns those criteria, which in Book Ζ have provided a deflationary reading of the notion of ὕλη. On the contrary, in Η matter is read as subject of physical changes and in its dispositional role within the biological wholes. Such a framework is accomplished in Η6, where Aristotle shows the explanatory primacy of his own hylomorphism over the Platonic Doctrine of Forms.

A presente Dissertação de Mestrado investiga os modos como um grupo de bebês de sete a vinte e seis meses de idade, de um berçário de uma escola Pública de Educação Infantil no interior do Rio Grande do Sul, se relaciona com diferentes materiais, denominados nesta pesquisa como Materiais Potencializadores. Tais materiais foram organizados à base de produtos naturais e/ou de alimentos, bem como daquilo que é descartado. Em virtude da diversidade de formatos, texturas, cores, cheiros e sabores, nesta investigação eles são compreendidos como ferramentas que prolongam, medeiam, integram e ampliam as interações estabelecidas pelos bebês que, ao se relacionarem com essas múltiplas possibilidades, elaboram suas percepções e sensações acerca do mundo que os rodeia. A pesquisa buscou compreender os modos como os bebês exploram os Materiais Potencializadores, como o tempo e os espaços interferem nas relações estabelecidas a partir desse contato e como essas relações contribuem para o estabelecimento das interações entre os bebês. Num primeiro momento, a investigação se deteve na observação do contexto investigado para, dessa forma organizar e desenvolver experiências de aprendizagens pensadas para e com os bebês. Esta pesquisa se aproxima da abordagem da pesquisa-intervenção, na medida em que crianças e pesquisadora caminharam juntas. As ferramentas que contribuíram para a coleta e análise dos dados se sustentaram na observação participante, no diário de bordo, nos registros fotográficos e de vídeos. Os pressupostos teórico-metodológicos se apoiaram nos estudos da Sociologia da Infância, inspirando-se nas ideias de Corsaro (1997); Sarmento (2004); Barbosa (2014); Hoyelos (2006); Goldshmiedt e Jackson (2006); Holm (2007); Duarte Jr. (2010); Pillotto (2007); Zordan (2014); Dornelles (2005), entre outros. As análises realizadas nesta investigação auxiliam na compreensão da potência dos bebês no que diz respeito às suas possibilidades e pré-disposição em se relacionarem tanto com os Materiais Potencializadores planejados e oferecidos quanto com os que despertavam seus interesses. Dessa forma, demonstram que os modos como os bebês compreendem o tempo e espaço para agirem sobre o mundo que os circundam difere — muitas vezes, consideravelmente — das expectativas dos adultos, as quais estão intimamente ligadas a regras e normatizações do cotidiano dos berçários. Observei ainda que as relações estabelecidas no contato com os Materiais Potencializadores possibilitaram a ampliação das experiências sensoriais e sensíveis nos bebês, na medida em que foram construídas a partir de uma atenção para o sensorial, o sensível. Esse fato possibilitou constituírem seus conhecimentos, passando a compartilhá-los entre eles e com os adultos, ampliando decisivamente suas interações. As reflexões apresentadas nesta Dissertação de Mestrado, desenvolvida a partir do Programa de Pós-Graduação em Educação, pela Faculdade de Educação da Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul, apoiada na linha de pesquisa dos Estudos Sobre Infâncias, auxiliam na compreensão do Bebê-Potência, diante das múltiplas relações e percepções que estabelecem ao interagirem com a diversidade oferecida pelos Materiais Potencializadores que passaram a constituir os espaços do berçário investigado. / This Master’s Degree thesis investigates how a group of babies, age ranging from seven to twenty-six months, from a nursery school in the Public Children Education System, in the countryside of Rio Grande do Sul – Brazil, relates to various materials, here designated as Potentializing Materials. These materials were made from natural products and/or foods, as well as from discarded materials. Due to their variety of shapes, textures, colors, odors and flavors, in this investigation they were seen as tools that extend, mediate, integrate and broaden the interactions established by the babies, who perceive and feel the world that surrounds them by relating to these multiple possibilities. This study attempts to understand the ways these babies explore the Potentializing Materials, and how time and spaces interfere in the relationships established with this contact, and how these relationships contribute to establishing an interaction among the babies. Firstly, the investigation focused on observing the setting studied, and subsequently on organizing and developing learning experiments, thought for and with the babies. This research presents the intervention-research approach, as children and researcher followed a path together. The tools for data collection and analyses were based on participating observation, journals, photographic records and videos. The theoretical-methodological assumptions were supported by the studies of the Sociology of Childhood, based on the ideas of Corsaro (1997); Sarmento (2004); Barbosa (2014); Hoyelos (2006); Goldshmiedt and Jackson (2006); Holm (2007); Duarte Jr. (2010); Pillotto (2007); Zordan (2014); Dornelles (2005), among others. The analyses carried out help to understand the babies’ potential concerning their possibilities and predisposition to relate with both the Potentializing Materials designed and offered, and with those that aroused their interest. Thus, they showed that the ways babies comprehend time and space to act towards the world surrounding them differs – quite often and considerably – from the expectations of the adults, which are closely connected to rules and standardization of daily life in nursery schools. Furthermore, it was observed that relationships established upon contact with the Potentializing Materials enable the broadening of sensory experiences, once they were designed with a focus on the senses. This allowed them to build knowledge, which they shared with one another and with the adults, thus decisively broadening their interactions. The reflections presented in this Master’s thesis, developed in the Graduate Program of Education at the School of Education in Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul, based on researches of Studies on Childhood, contribute to the babies’ “artist” actions, as well as to helping in understanding the Potentiality-Baby before multiple relationships and perceptions established when interacting with the diversity provided by the Potentializing Materials, that came to constitute the spaces of the nursery school investigated.

Apis mellifera L. is the only commercially cultivated bee species in Bangladesh nowadays and has been practicing for migratory beekeeping since 1990. Notably, without taking initiatives to improve the bee stocks, intensified beekeeping has been making the species vulnerable to different threats of diseases, pests and inbreeding depression. Reproductive potentiality of the queens has been declining severely. The investigation was carried out to diagnose present problems regarding reproductive potentiality of the queen bees and finding out the possible solutions. Firstly, 56 numbers of naturally mated queens (Apis mellifera L.) were collected from problematic and non-problematic hives from three districts of Bangladesh. Samples were weighed, body length and thorax width were measured, and dissected to study spermathecae appearance. Average queen body weight (160.75±3.65 mg) was found much lower than the earlier studies in different countries. Moreover, 32.33% spermathecae of the queens were found poor in appearance. Again, 3 different queen rearing and mating procedures were applied in 12 replications each: naturally mated queen (NM), grafted and naturally mated queen (GNM) and grafted and artificially inseminated queen (AIQ). NM and GNM queens were allowed to mate naturally where AIQ queens were inseminated artificially in the laboratory. Interestingly, GNM (196.65±3.13 mg) and AIQ(196.55±2.41 mg) queens were significantly heavier than the NM (159.07±6.94 mg) queens. Likewise, their spermathecae radius, respective workers, drones, brood occupation area showed much better strength than the NM queens, though, latency period of AIQ queens were higher. Since grafted queens were reared with good larvae and implemented in artificial queen cups with increased brood support, hence that could make the queens heavier and reproductively more potential, whereas NM queens were left to grow naturally and found less potential. The findings will encourage beekeepers for practicing grafting procedure as the better queen rearing procedure in field condition. However, the procedure of AIQ queens also could be used for stock improvement and bee research because of its control mating system. / <p>My degree project was external, carried out in Sher e Bangla Agricultural University, Bangladesh, therefore, my presentation was done through skype from Bangladesh.</p>

The APA of Tambaba is located in the Microregion of the Paraiban southern littoral, in the Mesoregion known as Mata Paraibana (Paraiban woods), in the municipalities of Conde, Pitimbu, and Alhandra. The area is delimited by the watersheds of the stream Caboclo and of the rivers Bucatu, Graú, and Mucatu, which form a drainage basin covering a total area of 114.46 km2. The present ZEE was generated by a model where it is considered the interdependence among the components and phenomena of the geographical space, where several aspects are Tambaba APA s territory is divided into two large zones: the Preservation and the Restoration zones integrated and analysed. In this context, it is necessary to employ technologies that make possible to handle a large amount of data, organized in a way that different interactions may be performed by a combination of social and physical attributes of local environment. The methodology consists on assigning weighted values to evaluate the Human, Productive, Institutional, and Natural Potential aiming the estimation of the social potential of the municipalities that make part of the APA. It was also evaluated local vulnerability with respect to themes related to Geology, Geomorphology (sloping surfaces), Pedology, Climate, and Vegetation/current use of soil according to the ecodynamics theory. Then, the vulnerability values assigned to each theme were integrated by using mathematical formulation which generates a map of vulnerability of the physical environment by employing techniques from geocoding process. In order to obtain a synthesized map of the ZEE, the maps related to the social potentiality and physical vulnerability are integrated, resulting in five use zones, namely: Expansion, Consolidation, Preservation, Restoration, and Institutional Use. This methodology generated the following results: the expansion areas are characterized by low potentiality and low vulnerability (stable) and correspond to top areas totalling 2.32 km2 (2.02% of the APA s area), being more easily found on top sites on the right bank of the Graú River separating the drainage basins of the rivers Graú and Mucatu; the consolidation areas are characterized by high potentiality and low vulnerability (stable), which corresponds to top areas totalling 6.57 km2 (5.74% of the APA s area), being more evident in the BTUs basic territorial units (UTB Unidade Territorial Básica, in Portuguese) at the plain tops that separate the watersheds of the rivers Graú and Bucatu and of the stream Caboclo; the preservation areas presented the highest degree of vulnerability and low potentiality, covering a total area of 32.11 km2, being located in the BTUs to southern of the Tambaba s APA on the right bank of the low and middle course of the Graú River and in the whole hydrologic basin of the Mucatu River, contiguous to the expansion areas; the restoration areas with high vulnerability cover 46.32 km2 and are located north- and westward of the APA, contiguous to the consolidation areas; and finally, the areas related to Institutional use are those protected by the Federal government s, Paraíba state s and municipality s legislations, which represent 23.71% (27.14 km2) of the whole area of the Tambaba s APA. It is noteworthy the urgent need for an effective control of activities carried out in the APA s territory, since the median social potentiality and stability and the moderate instability of the physical environment presented throughout the majority of its territory, propitiate a critical situation, as the / O presente trabalho apresenta uma proposta de Zoneamento Ecológico Econômico - ZEE para a Área de Proteção Ambiental APA Estadual de Tambaba. A APA de Tambaba está localizada na Microrregião do Litoral Sul Paraibano e na Mesorregião da Mata Paraibana, abrange os municípios do Conde, Pitimbu e Alhandra. Está delimitada pelos divisores naturais do riacho Caboclo e dos rios Bucatu, Graú e Mucatu que drenam a região, ocupando uma área de 114,46 Km². O presente ZEE foi produzido a partir de um modelo que considera as interdependências entre os elementos e fenômenos do espaço geográfico, onde diversos aspectos são integrados e analisados. Neste contexto, são necessárias tecnologias que permitam o manuseio de uma grande quantidade de dados, organizados de forma que diferentes interações sejam realizadas, combinando atributos sociais e do meio físico. A metodologia consiste na atribuição de valores ponderados para se avaliar o Potencial Humano, Produtivo, Institucional e Natural objetivando estimar a potencialidade social dos municípios abrangidos pelo território da APA. Também é avaliada a vulnerabilidade local com respeito aos temas Geologia, Geomorfologia (declividade), Pedologia, Clima e Vegetação/uso atual do solo de acordo com a teoria da ecodinâmica. Em seguida os valores de vulnerabilidade para cada tema são integrados utilizando-se de uma formulação matemática, gerando o mapa de vulnerabilidade do meio físico com a utilização de técnicas de geoprocessamento. Para se obter o mapa síntese do ZEE são integrados os mapas de potencialidade social e vulnerabilidade física obtendo-se cinco zonas de uso: Expansão, Consolidação, Preservação,Recuperação e Uso Institucional. Com a aplicação dessa metodologia na área de estudo foram obtidos os seguintes resultados: as áreas de expansão caracterizam-se por baixa potencialidade e baixa vulnerabilidade (estáveis) e correspondem às áreas de topo com 2,32Km² (2,02% da área da APA), sendo mais evidentes nos topos da margem direita do rio Graú que dividem as bacias hidrográficas do rio Graú e Mucatú; as áreas de consolidação caracterizam-se por alta potencialidade e baixa vulnerabilidade (estáveis), correspondendo às áreas de topo, com 6,57Km² (5,74% da área da APA), sendo mais evidentes nas UTB s (Unidades Territoriais Básicas) dos topos planos que dividem as bacias hidrográficas do rio Graú, Bucatu e do Riacho Caboclo; as áreas de preservação possuem maior grau de vulnerabilidade e baixa potencialidade, ocupam 32,11Km² e estão localizadas nas UTB s ao Sul da APA de Tambaba na margem direita do baixo e médio curso do rio Graú e em toda bacia hidrográfica do rio Mucatú contíguas às áreas de expansão; as áreas de recuperação com elevada vulnerabilidade ocupam 46,32 Km² e estão localizadas ao norte e a oeste da APA contíguas as áreas de consolidação; e por fim as áreas de uso institucional são aquelas protegidas por legislação federal, estadual e municipal, representam 23,71% (27,14Km²) da área da APA de Tambaba. Ressalta-se a extrema necessidade de um controle efetivo das atividades desenvolvidas no território da APA, visto que a média potencialidade social, a média estabilidade e moderada instabilidade do meio físico apresentada em grande parte de seu território, condicionam uma situação preocupante dividindo o território da APA de Tambaba em duas grandes zonas: a de Preservação e a de Recuperação
