Importance for Wildlife Conservation * Maintains ecological balance & the organisms have their unique positions in food chains‚ food webs which keep ecological balance. * Wild life contributes to the maintenance of material cycles such as carbon and nitrogen cycles. * For improvement and progress in agriculture‚ animal husbandry and fisheries the genes from wild life preserved as gene bank are utilised in breeding programmes. * Wild life provides a number of useful products like food‚ medicine

partly due to increasing scarcity (depletion of resources) but also because the exportation of natural resources is the basis for many economies (particularly for developed nations such as Australia). According to Theodore Roosevelt‚ The conservation of natural resources is the fundamental problem. Unless we solve that problem‚ it will avail us little to solve all others’’. Resource depletion is the exhaustion of raw materials within a region. In recent years‚ the depletion of natural resources

Oil and natural gas conservation involvesthe use of these resources in a better and well-organized manner with respect to economic‚ social and ambient expenses and rewards‚ contributing to an efficient energy utilization and reduction of loss. This article evaluates the ways in which oil and natural gas can be conserved‚ and describes the expected results of these conservation measures Conservation of oil and natural

Chapter 9 Wildlife and Nature Conservation 9.1 Protected Areas The first national park in India was declared in 1935‚ now famous as the Corbett National Park. Since Independence‚ there has been a steady rise in the number of Protected Areas (PAs) (National Parks and Wildlife Sanctuaries)‚ especially after the enactment of the Wildlife Protection Act in 1972. In 1988‚ there were 54 national parks and 372 sanctuaries covering a total area of 109‚652 sq km. By the year 2000‚ this number

Preservation vs. Conservation 1 Preservation vs. Conservation Preservation vs. Conservation 2 Earth is composed of many different ecosystems and each one is a “dynamic complex of plant‚ animal‚ and micro-organism communities interacting with the non-living environment as a functional unit" (Protecting Threatened Ecosystems‚ 2004). These ecosystems are an intricate part of the human lifecycle

Conservation versus Preservation E SCI/275 June ‚ 2015 T Conservation and preservation are similar in nature‚ but preservation has a stricter outlook on how land should be used by humans. In conservation‚ the land should be used but still able to replenish itself for future generations. While preservationist believe the land should only be used for its natural beauty and inspiration. The conservation example I chose was rangeland management. Rangeland management would be considered

Lab 5 Conservation of Momentum and Energy Abstract The physics laws governing conservation of momentum and mechanical energy were investigated by performing multiple experiments with differing conditions. Conservation laws state energy is to be conserved in systems with no net external forces. Two trials consisted of inelastic collisions and two trials consisted of elastic conditions. Photogate software helped decipher initial and final velocities in order

FREE FALL AND CONSERVATION OF MECHANICAL ENERGY ABSTRACT Free fall is defined as the ideal falling motion of an object that is subject only to the earth’s gravitational field. To prove the law of conservation of energy‚ the free fall motion of an object can be represented through 3 different analyses; position of the object vs. time‚ velocity of the object vs. time‚ and acceleration of the object vs. time. It is observed in this ball toss experiment‚ at any point during the free fall period‚
