ARSENIC IN WATER MAY CAUSE DIABETES

Recent studys show that levels of arsenic have been found in water, and contain type two diabetes. Arsenic is a poisiness eleent that smells like almonds. In another recent study of seven hundred andsevendy seven adults shows increased chances of having diabetes, just from drinking local water supplies. It probably disolved into the water from high poluting. Some are trying to prevent this from happining by filtrating tainted water supplies as much as possible. Sea dwellers such as fish also have increased nontoxic organic arsenic, probably by swimming in the water. It is possible that people with diabetes excrete more arsnic. The U.S.A. has even lowered arsenic in public water systems for belife of it being a couse of cancer.

BREAKING NEWS!!!
WHALE ANCESTOR FOUND!!!

At last! Finally we now know were whales come from. These creatures are believed to be the last amphibious evolutionary link to whales!!! Recent discoveries prove that whales were once odd looking rodents!!!
Who would have ever guessed that they were related? In recent fossil finds prove the evolutionary similarities between the two. It has long been perceived that the closest relative was the hippo, until now. Still, some researchers have been troubled that hippos seem to have lived in the wrong part of the world and popped up too recently to be a whale ancestor.
Whales were not always like the modern day ones, but more of a pig or dog with fins (much bigger of course!!!). This newly discovered creature is called “Indohyus”. Further testing is needed to support other hypotheses.
