would have changed weather patterns when the newly formed mountains significantly blocked summer monsoonal rains and other global climate changes. The changing climate would have pushed primates from the northern areas. As climate changes continued polar ice caps grew and sea level dropped‚ exposing more of previously submerged land‚ creating island chains which corresponds to this theory. This theory has been scrutinized by many scientist. There is no fossil evidence supporting this theory‚ and

The vertices along the horizontal axis will be ( h ± a‚ k ) and the vertices along the vertical axes will be ( h‚ k ± b) . These points‚ along with the center‚ will provide us with a method to sketch an ellipse given standard form. A = π ab Graph ( x − 5) 2 ( y − 8) 2 + =1 9 25 First plot the center. Then use a = 3 and plot a point 3 units to the left and 3 units to the right of the center. Use standard form to identify a‚ b‚ and the center (h‚ k). Next‚ use b = 5 and

I feel that the greatest challenge that my generation is faced with is being stuck in a time of environmental instability. Recently‚ we have been confronted with the crisis of global warming. In past generations‚ they have known the risks and effects of all the factories‚ and the car emissions‚ but they saw no immediate problem that they were confronted with. So they did not make many changes in their daily habits. Most recently‚ Al Gore had created the presentation‚ “An Inconvenient Truth”‚ to raise

Task 1 Can polar bears and people coexist? Polar bears are the largest land predator on earth today. They live in the Arctic area‚ surrounded by the northern nations like Norway‚ Greenland and Canada. The effects of global warming have caused the temperatures to rise‚ which have led the Arctic ice to melt. Because the polar bears’ territory is shrinking‚ they are forced to hunt further inland. They usually hunt on the sea ice‚ but they cannot do that now. A polar bear can starve for months‚ but

Everywhere you look right now you will hear about the pheonomia of “global warming.” To understand global warming you need to understand the difference between climate and weather. Climate‚ as defined by Webster’s Dictionary is “the average course or condition of the weather at a place over a period of years as exhibited by tepemperature‚ wind velocity‚ and precipition” while weather is the “state of the atmosphere with respectto heat or cold‚ wetness or dryness‚ calm or storm‚ clearness or cloudiness”
