One of these includes the southern region of Bangladesh. The main source of freshwater in Bangladesh comes from the Ganges River. Water and soil pollution is now one of the major problems occurring in Bangladesh and the Ganges River Basin. It has been an ongoing problem for many years so it is not like it

As geologists‚ we examine layers of sediment on the Earth’s surface to approximate the dates of past geologic time periods. Ah sediment as you know is material like sand‚ gravel‚ fossil fragments that is transported by natural processes like wind ‚ water flow or the movement of glaciers. So sediment is transported and then deposited and it forms layers on the Earth’s surface over time. We examine these layers to learn about different geologic time periods including when they began and ended. For

1. What are the relationships among Earth’s mantle‚ crust‚ asthenosphere‚ and lithosphere? The core is divided into three major compositional layers. The crust on Earth’s surface‚ the rocky mantle beneath the crust and the metallic core which is the center of the Earth. While distinct and separate parts of Earth‚ they are all interconnected. The metallic inner core is solid‚ surrounded by a liquid (molten) outer core. Most of the mantle is solid‚ except for a layer very close to the crust

Michelangelo’s process of sculpting was very unique compared to the other artists of the Renaissance era. Some say that his greatest accomplishment was his statue of David which soars an astonishing 17 ft. Michelangelo took on this 4 year project‚ 1500-1504‚ at the age of 26. In the Renaissance time period‚ it was common for sculptors to make their works from many pieces such as carving the body from one piece of stone then the arms‚ legs and head from smaller ones. This was largely due to the veins

Cool Sculpting in Prestbury could be a solution if you are finding it difficult to lose inches from certain areas. Cool sculpting is a popular body contouring treatment that can remove fat from tricky areas like the stomach‚ back and inner thighs. Cool sculpting uses cryolipolysis to destroy fat cells. This works by cooling fat cells to freezing point. As fat cells will freeze at higher temperatures‚ cool sculpting delivers monitored cooling to fat cells underneath the skin. This will lead to

The Archaic style of sculpting started in the 18th century‚ right after the Mycenaean age. This was the start of the “Heroic” Age‚ the Olympic games were also established‚ and this was when Greeks returned the Human figure to Art. The sculptures created during this time period resembled pieces just like unnatural‚ rigid forms of Egyptian human sculptures. They had created something called Archaic Smile; it was a smile that should not be taken literally‚ it was a sculptor’s way of indicating that

Capillary rise) Synopsis This project report explains about the surface tension and capillarity of liquid through a simple experiment of finding the capillarity of various detergents. Oil stains and grease on dirty clothes cannot be removed‚ using water alone‚ because water does not wet them. If detergents added ‚ surface tension is decreased‚ the area of contact is increased. Detergent molecules have the shape of a hairpin‚ one of which is

ever. When Mount St. Helens in Washington state erupted in 1980‚ it was the biggest eruption in the United States ever recorded. It also changed the earth’s surface immensely. There are many Geo processes on the Earth because it is in constant motion‚ so the Earth’s surface is always changing; three Geo processes that change the surface of the Earth most are volcanoes‚ tsunamis‚ and earthquakes. Importantly‚ volcanic eruptions are caused by changes in the Earth’s crust. Just outside Rome‚ there are
