Plate Tectonics Ever since the beginning on time‚ Humans believed the ground is solid and immobile. But this is not true whatsoever. The Earth is every-changing and continually in motion. The stability of the Earth is not at all what we think it is. Thinking about the rotational axis of the Earth‚ and possibly of what the Earth may become at a certain point in time‚ has a great influence on understanding all aspects of living things‚ either in the past‚ present‚ or future. The study of Plate

Ancient lineages across the Drakensberg Alpine Centre and their plight for conservation. 1. Introduction: With many recent studies showing that the current global rates of biodiversity loss are cause for alarm‚ it is important to recognize regions in which biodiversity is especially high and under threat from human expansion and climate change. The combinations of biodiversity assemblages along the Escarpment form nodes of high local endemism that have contributed towards the concept of ‘centers

missions and they were surprising to say the least! One of the questions posed by many scientists was what type of geological make up is the moon made up of? They discovered that most of the moon was made up of‚ in fact‚ high temperature rocks such as Basalts‚ Breccias‚ and Anorthosites. This means that the moon had to have had been formed with some solar activity. This helped

The river erosion processes involved in the formation of waterfalls are hydraulic action‚ abrasion and solution. Hydraulic action is the force of moving water on the land. Fast flowing water forces out looses rock and soil from the river bed and bank. Soft rock is eroded faster than hard rock (differential erosion) and overtime the bank will collapse. Abrasion is the wearing away of the river bed by its load. Stones carried by the river smooth the river channel deepening & widening it. Solution

The layers of Earth How do scientists know what is in the center of the earth? How can we know what the core of the earth is made of‚ if scientists have never studied any materials from a depth below 7.5 miles? Earth is approximately 4.6 billion years old‚ and over this time period‚ many things have changed inside and out. The formation of our planet is quite amazing. Earth consists of multiple layers. The three most distinct or main layers are the core‚ mantle and crust. The inner portion is
