... over fishing our waters. The way they are going there will not be enough fish for a maximum sustainable yield, and our fish population will die. Fishermen also clean there fish and throw the guts overboard into the ocean. Industrial, agricultural, household cleaning, gardening, and automotive products are also polluting our ocean. You wouldn't believe it but all of those products I just named regularly end up in water. About 65,000 chemicals are used commercially in the U.S. Today, with about 1,000 new ones added each year. Only about 300 have been extensively tested for toxicity. I think that since our oceans are doing so bad the U.S. should put a ban on new, an ...
... method the television stations use is a mere waste of time and money because a little symbol in the corner of the screen is not going to prevent a child from watching the program. The only way this method can work is if the parents/guardian is there to change the channel but let’s be realistic, how many parents/guardians actuarially have the time to monitor everything there children watch. So most children do end up viewing these programs anyway, and whether we like it or not,the truth of the matter is television educates our children. They educate our children inboth a positive and negative way. In order to minimizes the negative effects the laws and regulati ...
... have more traction in the higher elevations. The kangaroos that live in the coastal regions also have several special adaptations. They have wider feet to allow them to walk is shallow water. They can eat several different types of sea plants. They can do this because they have a higher tolerance to salt than normal kangaroos. Kangaroos that live in forests have adapted to this climate as well. Their feet are wide to allow them to climb trees. This allows them to eat leaves off of the trees. They also do not have claws as long as other species. There is usually a larger supply of fresh water in the forests. FAMILY STRUCTURE A group of kangaroos livi ...
... there are many small, horny teeth. These are what the lamprey uses to pierce the flesh of fishes. The adult forms of lamprey die soon after spawning and reaching their mature form. Lampreys mostly live in freshwater streams and seas of temperate and subartic regions throughout the world, except for Southern Africa. The sea lamprey is a marine species. They are native to the Atlantic Coast of North America and Europe. In many areas it has adapted to a life cycle spent entirely in freshwater. The sea lamprey invaded Lake Erie in the 1920’s, where its warm water was good for reproduction. They migrated to Lake Huron in 1939 and then to Lake Michigan. With ...
... health care is at the worst risk right now. He says that, "As much as 80-90% of our doctors' offices are not compliant. 64% of hospitals still have serious problems with the Y2K issues," (Senate Y2K Report Wendy Griffith). The senate also believes that they will affect Medicare, power companies, banks, and stocks. People now believe that they must remove their money from the banks. This is true, but most of them are waiting until the end of the year to do this. If everyone goes to the bank simultaneously to remove their money, then they will cause an automatic depression. The banks do not have all of the money in the bank at the times that people will want the ...
... America. Their distribution once extended as far south as Colorado, Indiana, Pennsylvania, and perhaps Michigan. It looks like a weasel maybe because it is in the weasel family.It has black and brown fur and long claws.It’s legs are short but strong. The Wolverine is usually solitary except for members of the opposite sex and a female's young. After the females give birth they hide with their young. The mother defends her territory and intruders are not tolerated. This territorial behavior continues until the young are ready to hunt on their own. The Wolverine has a diet that can include anything from small eggs to full-sized deer. The Wolverine is capable of b ...
... Faults are not always visible at the surface of the earth. A fault is a fracture within a rocky mass within the earth's crust. The depth and the length of faults vary tremendously. Earthquakes are caused by faults that are active. An active fault is a fault along which the two sides of the fracture move with respect to each other. An earthquake is caused by the sudden movement of the two sides of the fault. Faults are divided into three main groups, depending on how they move. There are normal faults which occur in response to pulling or tension. There are thrust faults which are caused as a result of squeezing or compression. The third group is strike ...
... are substantially present. Other constituents include waxes and complex, high molecular weight asphaltenes. (Abelson) All of these substances and more are present in Prudhoe Bay crude oil. When ingested, most of the compounds are nontoxic. Notable exceptions are some of the aromatic compounds, including benzene and toluene. After a crude oil is spilled in a marine environment, many processes follow. Typical crude has a density of about 0.85, more or less, and this factor combined with winds, wave action, and currents leads to spreading, which is very rapid during the first 24 hours. During that period most of the components having boiling points below 200[deg. ...
... smog, which is a common form of . Fuel combustion for heating and cooling homes,offices,buildings, and factories contribute significantly to . Electric power plants that burn coal or oil in also releases pollutants into the atmosphere. The major pollutants from these source are nitrogen- oxides, sulfur-oxides, and carbon dioxide. The rapid growth of population and industry, and the increased use of automobiles and airplanes has made a very serious and complicated problem. The air we know today and breathe has become so filled with pollutants that it can cause little health problems to fatal health problems such as lung cancer. Polluted air also harms ...
... away from each other ever since. Today the universe is still expanding, as astronomers have observed. The Steady State model says that the universe does not evolve or change in time. There was no beginning in the past, nor will there be change in the future. This model assumes the perfect cosmological principle. This principle says that the universe is the same everywhere on the large scale, at all times.2 It maintains the same average density of matter forever. There are observational evidences found that can prove the Big Bang model is more reasonable than the Steady State model. First, the redshifts of distant galaxies. Redshift is a Doppler ...
