were examined‚ the rock pool area‚ and the boulder area. We first examined areas within the rock pool area. The rock pool area has several specific features which set it apart from other rocky shore ecosystems‚ including its geological makeup and position. It is made up of a flat platform of rock pockmarked with numerous rock pools; indents in the rocks which are filled with water and contain numerous forms of marine life. These pools can vary in size‚ from small cracks in the rock which have a changing

born in 429 B.C. As the son of a wealthy nobleman‚ he turned his back on a political scene‚ and devoted himself to writing ideas of his master‚ complimented with his own views in his dialogues. One particular theory he dedicated his time to was the the theory of ‘The forms’. Plato’s theory of forms is strongly based on what is real and what is not. What is real is thought to be perfect‚ but something cannot be real or perfect if it is always changing. He believed that behind every concept in the

The rock cycle is very important to us because it explains the way the different types of rocks are formed on earth. The rocks currently visible on the Earth’s surface have moved through transition stages that transformed them from one form into another. The importance of the rock cycle lies in how it forms and recycles the various layers that make up the Earth. To do this‚ the cycle moves through three different stages that produce three different types of rock. Igneous rock makes up the foundation

Explain the Teleological arguments The word teleological originates from the Greek ‘telos’ meaning end or purpose.

The rock cycle is very important to us because it explains the way the different types of rocks are formed on earth. Geologists classify rocks in three groups‚ depending on the Earth processes that made them. Some rocks are formed by heat and pressure. Other rocks are formed by weathering and erosion. The three rock groups are igneous‚ sedimentary‚ and metamorphic rocks. Igneous rocks are formed from melted rock that has cooled and solidified. They can form underground or above ground. Underground

The Riddle of Existence Leibniz’s formulation: “Why is there something rather than nothing”‚ is perhaps one of the most important questions ever posed in Philosophy. It had taken philosophy into a level wherein ‘everything’ is included in its realm; not only abstracta but also concreta. However‚ the question is more focused on the origins and explanations of the existence of concrete objects. Aside from explaining why concrete objects exist and where they come from‚ and who/what made them; the

ALIENS AND THEIR EXISTENCE Have you ever looked up at the sky and wondered who or what else we may be sharing our universe with? If you have you are not alone. There are approximately 3‚700 UFO and alien sightings each year. Aliens have had reported sightings dating all the way back to the 1640’s. I believe that with all the evidence‚ there is no way that aliens do not exist. In my opinion‚ aliens must exist because of the discovery of earthlike planets‚ proof of alien existence in ancient history

“The extent to which tectonic processes represent hazards depends on when and where they are experienced.” Tectonic hazards are dangers caused by the movement of the earth’s plates. The majority of hazards represent by plate tectonic occur at plate margins where two plates meet. These natural processes become hazardous when they affect people and cause material losses such as the destruction of infrastructure as this inhibits sustainable development. These hazards can be reduced depending on when

Assignment: Sedimentary Rocks * Where do sedimentary rocks originate? Sedimentary rocks are the most common rock on earth. Sedimentary rocks form at‚ or very near‚ the Earth’s surface where rocks particles transported by wind‚ water and ice are deposited on dry land‚ on the beds of rivers and lakes and in marine environments: beaches‚ deltas and the sea (Sedimentary Rocks‚ 2001). The earth surface is constantly moving‚ materials are continually being deposited through various parts of the
