Condor
Number of pages: 5 | Number of words: 1212.... to spend hours on the ground or a low branch before they can take off again. s are fastidious birds -- after eating, they clean their heads and necks by rubbing them on grass, rocks, or tree branches. s also bathe frequently and spend hours preening and drying their feathers.
s were probably never very numerous in North America. The species once ranged along the entire Pacific Coast from British Columbia to Baja California. Fossils have been found as far east as Texas, Florida, and New York. More recently, however, they were confined to a horseshoe-shaped area north of Los An .....

The Effects Of Processing Vegetables
Number of pages: 4 | Number of words: 1004.... ability to see in the dark. Which is where the saying that carrots will make you see better is derived from. Carrots were the vegetables chosen to be tested in this experiment. This experiment was designed to test if the processing of a carrot produces gas. In turn discovering the health related differences of canned, frozen and fresh carrots. Canning is a process of hermetically sealing cooked food for future use (Encyclopedia.com, 1999). This process is also called sterilization because it involves exposing the food to high temperatures for only minutes or seconds to .....

Our Radiant Planet- Depletion Of The Ozone Layer
Number of pages: 4 | Number of words: 978.... which destroys ozone by oxidising with the Ozone molecules, forming
Cl-O and Oxygen. One atom of chlorine can destroy 10,000 ozone molecules! Atoms
containing bromine, nitrous oxide, and hydrogen oxide radicals are also
primarily dangerous. As a result, the Ozone in the stratosphere has been reduced
to such an extent that ozone holes are appearing around the globe, in particular
one over Antarctica that in 1995 measured 8.2 million square miles. This
depletion has allowed more dangerous UV-B radiation to reach the earths surface.
So what effects will ozone depletion have on u .....

Circulation Systems Over China
Number of pages: 7 | Number of words: 1879.... circulation which prevails over China
throughout the year.
Surface Pressure Field and Winds: For any fluid to initiate movements, pressure
gradient must exists. Therefore, for a close understanding of the circulation
system that operates over China, we should start from discussing the seasonal
pressure distribution at sea-level over the Asia-Pacific region, which is the
driving force for the air movements in China. Most clearly to be seen, the
largest difference in the atmospheric pressure occurs between winter and summer,
whereby January and July can be considered as r .....

Did Duhem Show That Scientific Theories Can Be Neither True
Number of pages: 7 | Number of words: 1840.... first being that it is an explanation of the reality lying behind a group of experimental laws (those that are empirically determined). The second is that a physical theory is simply an abstract system to classify and summarize a group of laws.
Taking the first possibility (a belief still held by many today): this seeks to look beneath the sensible appearances and find the reality beneath, which is causing the sensations we experience. However, this presents us with a problem. We only have access to perceptions so how can we hope to find a physical theory that provides a certa .....

have distant cautious that make them direct the other whales, most dolphin species have a distinct beck where as porpoises have a more rounded shape to there head. They also have a hooked-shaped dorsal fin not fend in other specious, as will as conical teeth.
Erans explains that evolved from the Mesonychicsi, large land mammals and the earliest recognizable cetaceans lived about 50 million year ago. The earliest did not appear install the late mioceene period, Some 11 million years ago. Evan .....

Research And Patterns Of Thinking
Number of pages: 2 | Number of words: 422.... to visit the few I singled out which greatly helped me choose this for my education. Next I had to perform and even harder task, choosing a major. It's very difficult to decide what you want to do with the rest of your life in just a short time. I had the plans of working in the woods, so I talked with some friends who work with wildlife conservation and they told me parks and recreation was the way to go. After this strenuous research, I was very glad to get it over with.
Another time I used research was when I restored my car. When I bought the rusty seventy Chevelle .....

B E C: The New Phase Of Matter
Number of pages: 2 | Number of words: 383.... by using laser beams. The hardware needed to create the BEC is a
bargain at $50,000 to $1000,000 which makes it accessible to physics labs around
the world.
The next step is to test the new phase of matter. We do not know yet if
it absorbs, reflects,or refracts light. BEC is related to superconductivity and
may unlock some mysteries of why some minerals are able to conduct electricity
without resistance. The asymmetrical pattern of BEC is is thought by some
astrophysicists to explain the bumpy distribution of matter in the early
universe, a distribution that eventually .....
