General Purpose: The purpose of the Speech is to persuade the audience Specific Purpose: I want the audience or agencies to be persuaded that there has to be action taken against GMOs. Although they might sound beneficial to providing for people‚ we should not look in the short term but look for the long terms effects. Background: To make it clear‚ I will defining what GMOs are and used in this speech. When we think of GMOs‚ we think of manipulative ways to change DNA in organisms using technology

As pollen is unable to cause movement for itself‚ it relies on the wind for movement‚ unlike the person who creates the path of the bullet. By comparing the bullet to the fluff of pollen‚ incapable of causing harm‚ Nye reveals the bullet’s ability to incite violence. Nye also criticizes the people’s descriptions of the bullet‚ which have personified

and animals (eukaryotes) undergo a similar process for cellular division/reproduction? Both plant and animal cells undergo mitosis and meiosis. In plants‚ there is an alternation of generations; the gametophyte generation‚ where haploid gametes (pollen and ovule; sperm and egg) are produced via mitosis. Then the sporophyte generation combines these two into spores via meiosis‚ resulting in a diploid zygote which can grow into new cells. 2. Describe the sun as the ultimate source of energy for

bees that ate pollen contaminated with fungicides were three times as likely to be infected by the parasite. Widely used‚ fungicides had been thought to be harmless for bees as they’re designed to kill fungus‚ not insects‚ on crops like apples.” This means that it’s both human and parasites that are causing bees to vanish. The cause of this is that the farmers spray these chemicals thinking that it will help their crops from getting fungicides. Then the bees come around taking the pollen from the flower

Arctic sea ice loss Main articles: Polar ice packs and Climate change in the Arctic The decline in Arctic sea ice‚ both in extent and thickness‚ over the last several decades is further evidence for rapid climate change.[60] Sea ice is frozen seawater that floats on the ocean surface. It covers millions of square miles in the polar regions‚ varying with the seasons. In the Arctic‚ some sea ice remains year after year‚ whereas almost all Southern Ocean or Antarctic sea ice melts away and reforms

cause we have damaged one of the global ecosystem’s most important links in the food web. The honeybee is the world’s most efficient and widespread pollinator. Honeybees provide the crucial harmony between insects and plants; as the bees spread the pollen to flowers propagating the reproduction process of a vast majority of plant species. The United Nations food agency estimates nearly three-quarters of the 100 crop species that provide most of the world’s food are pollinated by bees. In a report released

The genus name Apis refers to honey bees (Michael Wilson 2009). The difference between an Apis and a Non-Apis bee is the fact that honey bees (Apis) store more excess honey and pollen‚ hence the name honey bee. This concept is very easy to grasp‚ but there are 10 different types of honey bees and one hybrid that are in this family so they can be easily confused as many of them look similar (Buzz about Bees‚ 2010). Honey bees are

• Growing upright: Lignin is a material that hardens the cell walls of some tissues‚ providing structure for plants to grow upright and space for vascular tissue. • Reproducing on land: A pollen grain is a two-celled structure produced by seed plants that contains a cell that will divide to form sperm. Pollen can be carried by wind or animals to female reproductive structures. A seed is a storage device that also protects and nourishes a plant embryo. Plants evolve with other organisms in their
