Have you ever turned on the television and saw an oil spill or gotten really excited to go to the beach only to see contamination signs everywhere? Pollution may be destroying the ocean before the ocean's resources will fully be used. For years, all kinds of garbage and toxic waste have been disposed into the ocean, thinking that the ocean is large enough to absorb it and not be affected by it. But now the widespread effects are known. The government needs to spend some taxpayer money on helping the conditions of these beaches because in time there will not be that many more beaches.
Pollution in the water is a very harmful tradition that people continue to do because it is putting a lot of sea life creatures in danger of being killed. Extinction is far too common these days for a lot of animals. Today, we have about half of the animals we did a long time ago. A big reason is due to pollution. These animals' homes are taken away because of the trash content everywhere. It is not fair to these animals whose food and shelter always gets contaminated. When these animals get killed, it breaks a part of the food chain. If an animal is taken out of the chain, the other animals that eat that one will go hungry, therefore killing them off too. Contaminated food has already happened to the food humans eat. For example, the Mad Cow Disease. This disease slowed the beef market down and it is easily happening in the other ocean creatures market. Humans have no right to kill what is not theirs, unless it is for food purpose only. Most humans do not realize that polluting the ocean kills animals, but the truth is, it does.
Not only are animals at a risk, humans are too because of the unstable cliffs along the coastline. These cliffs are very unsturdy and have already claimed the life of one woman who was sitting below. These cliffs have been falling for years, but only recently presented a severe risk. The woman was killed because of the negligence of the cliffs. No one seemed to think anything that bad was capable of happening. Taxpayer's homes are also threatened along this ...
? Farmers and ranchers hate them. Scientists learn from them. Families enjoy watching them. Whatever their viewpoint, most people living on the prairie have a strongly-held opinion on prairie dogs. Prairie dogs are members of the rodent family, the largest group of mammals in the world. They live in colonies on the prairie that range in size fr...
Hi friends as you know I am Pranav but I cant spend time with you because I have to study and share information about the Solar system. Don't worry, I will share with you too. So, if you are interested in reading a little bit about the solar system look down. 1. There are 8 planets 2. The solar system is about 4.6 billion years old. 3. It forme...
During the late twentieth century many new diseases have been discovered. Tomisaku Kawasaki discovered one of these diseases, , or technically mucocutaneous lymph node disease, in 1961. This particular disease remained undetected for so long because its cause is still unknown. Dr. Kawasaki, a pediatrician, uncovered this disease after studying fift...
Medicine and electronics are rapidly becoming a common partnership. Electronics and medicine has been around for over a hundred years. This application can be seen in early X-ray machines, as well as early doctors and healers who felt that electricity possessed something special that assisted the healing process of many illnesses and injuries. B...
It is quite evident that as technology advances m the scientific sense, we as Americans are becoming more interested. One of the conflicts that have raised concern here lately is that on . By no surprise, one of the major questions of many is whether or not these foods are safe. As altered foods continue to be produced, we will begin to see much co...
are large molecules composed of smaller molecules called monomers. Monomers are produced and either grow together or are assembled to produce a single polymer. There are synthetic and natural . Some examples of natural would be wood, starches, fingernails, and hair. Synthetic are usually referred to as plastics. Petroleum is the primary mono...
Bioethics, which is the study of value judgments pertaining to human conduct in the area of biology and includes those related to the practice of medicine, has been an important aspect of all areas in the scientific field (Bernstein, Maurice, M.D.). It is one of the factors that says whether or not certain scientific research can go on, and if it c...
is a disease that bewilders us all.. There is no known cause. We do know that MS () is a disease where the myelin breaks down and is replaced by scar tissue. The demyelination can slow down or block the flow of signals to and from the central nervous system to the rest of the body, impairing such functions as vision, strength, and coordination....
ABSTRACT Ohm's Law and Kirchhoff's rules is fundamental for the understanding of dc circuit. This experiment proves and show how these rules can be applied to so simple dc circuits. INTRODUCTION In the theory of Ohm's Law, voltage is simply proportional to current as illustrated in the proportionality, V=RI. As shown in this relation, V represe...
have always been observed by people, many centuries before our time. People were always fond of clouds. They always wondered why some clouds were dark and others were white and fluffy, and why some clouds are so up high and others were so low that they looked reachable by the human hands. The most recent classification of clouds was accomplishe...
About 2.5 billion years ago, oxygen began slowly to accumulate in the atmosphere, as a result of the photosynthetic activity of the cyanobacteria. Those prokaryotes that were able to use oxygen in ATP production gained a strong advantage, and so they began to prosper and increase. Some of these cells may have evolved into modern forms of aerobic b...
In 1876 a French scientist by the name of Louis Pasteur found something that would make college students eternally grateful of his scientific knowledge. He discovered that played an important part in making beer. Since then has been used in not only the production of beer, but also wine and the most commonly known, bread. belongs to a gro...
The Asynchronous Transfer Mode has been chosen as the standard system concept for integrated broadband communication networks by the ITU_T. The system is predicted to grow rapidly as soon as it becomes widely accepted by network operators and users. Why has communications evolved in history towards the ATM concept and why has it been chosen as the...
Genetic engineering, altering the inherited characteristics of an organism in a predetermined way, by introducing into it a piece of the genetic material of another organism. Genetic engineering offers the hope of cures for many inherited diseases, once the problem of low efficiencies of effective transfer of genetic material is overcome. Another...
