speed and others use their strength‚ but one particular animal uses one of the most unique ways of hunting. The archerfish of the amazon basin in my opinion has the most crazy but smart way of killing prey‚ by shooting it with its water pistol. The archerfish environment is one of the most dangerous and challenging to survive in since it lives in the amazon basin. It has been forced to live in very shallow water due to the mass amounts of predators in its surrounding area. Still this fish has found

Introduction Franklinian basin is one of the oldest basins in North America. It is a passive margin basin in arctic Canada that extends from northeast Canada to North Greenland (Ineson‚ 1988). The origin of Franklinian basin has not been extensively studied‚ but some authors (Miall & Blakey‚ 2008; Henriksen & Higgins‚ 1998) suggested a late Precambrian origin which began with the rifting of Rodinia (a supercontinent) about 700 Ma. Since the rifting of the Rodinia‚ Franklinian basin has undergone several

The first commercial oil discovery was made in the Greater Indus Basin in 1914 when the Attock Oil Company completed a 214 ft well on a thrust-faulted anticline near Khaur on the Potwar Plateau (Khan and others‚ 1986). Early success in the Kohat-Potwar geologic province served to focus much of the early exploration activity in that area. The Sui

A Theory of the Origin of the State “Traditional theories of state origins are considered and rejected in favor of a new ecological hypothesis.” Robert L. Carneiro For the first 2 million years of his existence‚ man lived in bands or vil-lages which‚ as far as we can tell‚ were completely autonomous. Not until perhaps 5000 B.C. did villages begin to aggregate into larger political units. But‚ once this process of aggregation began‚ it continued at a progressively faster pace and led‚ around 4000

I can sense the emotion of the girl whose hand I hold with one hand as I feel the “tissue” and “contents” drain into the basin I hold with the other. I see their “shakily applied eyeliner smear when they cry” that “sharp‚ childish cry.” After the “dirty work” is over‚ I see the “curdlike blood clots” and “translucent arm” swimming beside a hand.

At 500 million acres‚ it is larger than the state of Alaska and stands as the world’s second largest tropical forest” (Congo Basin). The Amazon is the only moist tropical forest that is bigger than the Congo Basin moist forest. The Congo Basin moist forest is four times the size of France and contains about one fourth of the closed canopy forest left on Earth (Managing Congo Basin Forests:
