It may be change in average eather conditions is caused by factors that include oceanic processes‚ variation in solar radiation received by earth‚ plate tectonics‚ and volcanic eruptions and human induced aleration of the natural world. The effects of this climate change will threaten water supplies‚ brng more severe weather‚ threaten the livelhood of nations situated near sea

Science Study Notes Inner Space Structure of the atom · An atom is the smallest part of an element that can be part of a chemical reaction - in other words‚ an atom is the smallest particle that can exist naturally · When two or more atoms join up they form a molecule. Atoms are generally found in the form of molecules. · An atom consists of a nucleus‚ which is made up of protons and neutrons. · Protons are positively charged particles. Neutrons have no charge. There is an outer layer made

vast areas‚ to gain a more complete understanding of some of Earth’s most critical and dangerous processes. Subduction occurs when oceanic crust is forced downward into the mantle at the place where two lithospheric plates converge. A subduction zone is the area along this convergent plate boundary where subduction is taking place. Activity at subduction zones includes an important part of the rock cycle‚ the recycling of Earth’s crust‚ as well as earthquakes‚ tsunamis‚ and volcanic eruptions. According

Amid this time‚ ice secured the northern piece of Africa‚ which was situated over the South Pole. In ancient times‚ the mainlands were far separated‚ yet moving tectonic plates made landmasses to move together into a vast landmass named Pangea. That all were major events. Then by time machine‚ I came back into my real life for telling you that this is all I found when I went back to Paleozoic era for my awesome and amazing

Geo Midterm – Review The Geographical Approach Geography = Only discipline that examines patterns of phenomena on Earth. Geographers are interested in locational aspects of Earth phenomena (can it be mapped?) * Physical geography involves natural phenomena * Human/cultural geography involves phenomena caused by inhabitants Many different fields of geography overlap one another. All geographers are interested in: * A focus on spatial relationships (terrestrial) * Geographic

the area it takes place in; however‚ others may solidify that earthquakes are infinitely more catastrophic than volcanoes considering the amount of destruction that it causes. There are two types of plates‚ oceanic and continental. Various types of movement occur along the different types of plate boundaries. Earthquakes measuring a magnitude of 1-6 are not that powerful; therefore‚ not much damage will be produced; however‚ earthquakes measuring of a magnitude of 6+ are going to be much more severe

released from the earth) that are released around the hole accumulate to create a volcano. These happen most often at "hot spots"‚ which are places along the edges of earth plates that are weak enough to allow the earth to vent hot lava. The study of movement at these plates that creates super geologic activity is called plate tectonics. Statement of the problem The study aimed to find out what ingredient/s together with baking soda and red food coloring will be able to make an unrealistic volcano model

that are caused through geological processes that have threats to human life and the environment they live in. These types of hazards include things such as Volcanoes and Earthquakes‚ namely because their source of origins are directly linked to tectonic and earthly activity. With the occurrence of lithospheric hazards i.e. the hazard being turned into an event or disaster‚ there comes about effects in the short and long run of things that affect human life and activity. These effects can be classified

Bacteria Prac Aim: To observe the growth of bacteria on Agar plates Hypothesis: That the bacteria will grow in colonies throughout the agar plates except for the one with the anti-biotic loop because some will fight off the bacteria. Method: (Method taken from prac sheet) Plate 1: Use the swab to cover your entire agar plate in your bacteria. You only need one swab of bacteria but be careful to cover the entire surface of your agar in a layer of bacteria. Carefully place an Antibiotic Mastring
