So that they were not exposed to a lot of light and there is protection from predators such as blowflies and centipedes‚ sufficient food and damp. The ground was mostly made up of damp organic matter‚ damp soil‚ moist leaves‚ some were found on stony ground. The light intensity is significant to the niche and way of life of the Slater because they are classed as scavengers; they live off decomposing matter

The Science of Transportation: Ancient World: The Wheel: • How do they work? Wheels work by rolling along a surface. The curved surface of the wheel reduces the friction between the two surfaces due to a decrease in surface area. With less friction it is much easier to move an object. This is because rolling friction is much weaker than sliding friction. • How did they come to be? The wheel was invented in prehistoric times; as the oldest example of a wheel yet found is from the region of

Definition In the context of humanitarian organisations transport is defined as: “The activities involved in moving supplies from point of origin to internal customers or beneficiaries”. The aim of transport is to physically move supplies in a reliable and safe manner‚ on time‚ cost effectively and efficiently to its destination. Policies The rapid growth of technology and the changes in the delivery of humanitarian aid has done little to change the fact that relief supplies still have

The electron microscope‚ instrument that produced the first magnified image showing three-dimensional’ and highly magnified image of a small object. It directs a beam of electrons rather than light through a specimen. The beam of electrons is created from an electron gun. This beam then travels through the length of the microscope cylinder‚ which contains the lenses‚ the specimen chamber‚ and the image-recording system. Two types of electron lenses are used‚ electrostatic and electromagnetic

Lab 1: Radio and Light Waves Virtual Lab 1) How is the radiating electric field (or electromagnetic signal) produced when radio stations broadcast? Include a description of what is producing the signal as well as the reasoning behind how this could produce a signal. We know that electromagnetic radiation is produced by accelerating charges. In the radio transmitter‚ electrons oscillate up and down and are thus accelerating. An electron will exert a force on another electron when they are some

Electron Configuration “Lab” Purpose The purpose of this lab was to explore how electron configurations vary around the periodic table. The lab also helped us examine the relationships between electron configurations and reactions. Analysis The first pattern we discovered was that the sum of the superscripts equaled the number of electrons in the atom. Then‚ we learned that as you travel across the periodic table (starting from hydrogen up to the element of interest) the superscript increases

The Discovery Of The Electron The electron was discovered in 1895 by J.J. Thomson in the form of cathode rays‚ and was the first elementary particle to be identified. The electron is the lightest known particle which possesses an electric charge. Its rest mass is Me <approximately equal> 9.1 x 10 -28 g‚ about 1/1836 of the mass of the proton or neutron. The charge of the electron is -e = -4.8 x 10^-10 esu <elec trostatic unit). The sign of the electron’s charge is negative by convention‚ and
