Acid Rain 6
Number of pages: 4 | Number of words: 906.... and soils. A lot of damages are being done when the sulphuric acid falls onto the earth as rain. All the nutrients in the soils are washed away making it hard for some plants to grow. The presence of nitrogen oxide and nitric oxide also can force trees to grow even though they do not have the necessary nutrients. The trees are sometimes forced to grow during late autumn when it is actually the time for them to prepare for severe winter weather.
One of the direct effects of acid rain is on lakes and the whole aquatic ecosystems. There are several ways the acidic chemicals .....

Human Health
Number of pages: 4 | Number of words: 1011.... that are helpful
and none of the herbs that cause harm are in our products.
The products come in tablet or capsule form. These tablets
are cold pressed herbs and roots that have not been
subjected to the nutrition destroying effects of cooking.
This preserves
the product in the most natural state possible. These herbs
and roots are mostly grown in China and the Amazon rain
forest, thousands of miles from any pesticides, herbicides
and chemical pollutants. "The products are grown and
processed under the purest conditions that you will find
anywhere on t .....

to decide what trail to take. We had three choices the first trail was half a
mile long, the second trail was two miles long, and the third trail was four
miles long. Since it was such a beautiful day we all decided to take the third
trail that was four miles long.
We started hiking around 11:00 AM. While we were hiking we heard wings
flapping, we all turned and saw a robin fly towards the ground, pick up a worm,
and feed it to her babies. Everyone thought that it was cute. After, we
watched the robin for a while we continued hiking until 12:30 PM.

Lead And The Environment
Number of pages: 4 | Number of words: 871.... properties, accounted for its extensive use. Lead can be rolled into
sheets which can be made into rods and pipes. It can also be molded into
containers and mixed with other metallic elements.
Lead was used in ancient times for making coinage, art objects and water
pipes. One of the first known toxic substances, lead was used by the Romans for
lining aqueducts and in glazes on containers used for food and wine storage; and
it is suspected to have resulted in widespread lead poisoning. Members of the
famous Franklin Expedition to the Northwest Passage in the mid-1840s met a .....

All About Ants (almost)
Number of pages: 11 | Number of words: 2889.... Insects Œ68). These remarkably adaptive creatures are found in
some form on all continents and all habitats but the extreme arctics. Their
success is manifested in the claim that at any time there are at least 1
quadrillion living ants on earth(Groliers Œ93).
All species of ants are social. They live in organized communities or colonies,
which may contain anywhere from a few hundred to more than 20 million
individuals. These are organized into a complex system which may contain two or
more castes and sub castes which can be roughly organized into three groups.
Queens, ma .....

Crystals

For this purpose, the concentrated liquor is transferred from the evaporators to the ‘pan.’ The pan is essentially a simple vacuum evaporator in which the removal of water continues until the concentration is appropriate for crystallization. As this proceeds, juice continues to be drawn into the pan in order to maintain a supply of crystallizable sugar. The concentration of impurities increases in the syrup as sugar is withdrawn by crystallization, and the entire boiling mass stiffens as the viscosity increases and the quant .....

Global Warming 2

greenhouse gases increases.
Since the beginning of the industrial revolution, great amounts of carbon dioxide have increased nearly 30%, methane concentrations have almost doubled, and nitrous oxide concentrations have risen about 15%. These increases have made the heat-trapping worse in the earth's atmosphere. Sulfate aerosols, a common air pollutant, cool the atmosphere by reflecting light back into space, but, sul .....

Fishes
Number of pages: 2 | Number of words: 503.... Placodermi class. The digestion system of a shark contains a “spiral valve” intestinal system, which increases the surface area and lengthens the time food is digested in the unusually short intestine system of a shark. Sharks sexually reproduce. Unlike a shark, rays have flattened bodies so they can hide themselves in the sand at the bottom of any shallow water area and wait for a meal. Rays also have a whiplike tail for defense and jaws, which it uses to crush mollusks and crustaceans.
Class Osterrichhthyes has the most separate species of any vertebrate clas .....
