snakes are hard to kill. If you try to kill the snakes and miss, it can trigger them and they can come after you or your surroundings. Even if you try to kill them by hitting their heads you will have to get them good because they are hard to kill, very fast, and very strong. As people are trying to find these snakes, the ones that are not being found are getting bigger and reproducing more snakes. As they keep reproducing the new ones are hard to find because they hide in small or closed in places and

What is biodiversity? Some may say it is just merely a number of species within an ecosystem. However this is not the case, as majority aspects of our lives solely depend on biodiversity. Water, food and air are produced directly by different species and the quality of these resources depend on other species activities. According to the convention of biological diversity "Biological diversity means the variability among living organisms from all sources including, inter alia, terrestrial, marine

They were interested in getting information about light intensity’s effect on the rate of photosynthesis in their plants, and if it did have an effect, how much it would be. Based on the p-values we calculated on the rate of photosynthesis of the chloroplasts in our experiment, we must recommend that the intensity of light will not affect the overall rate of photosynthesis in their plants. The average rate of change from one foot away from the light source was .1764, from two feet away from the light

chains. The starting point of a food chain is a category of organisms called producers. Producers are, in fact, plants. So, we can say that all the food chains begin with a green plant (or grass) which is the original source of all food. Let us take an example to understand the meaning of food chain. Suppose there is a field having a lot of green plants (or producers of food). Now, plants can be eaten up by a rat. The rat, in turn, can be eaten up by a cat. And finally, the cat can be eaten up by

ecosystem is and why it’s important to have a balanced ecosystem. An ecosystems is a balance of all things living and nonliving together in a specific area. For example, a coral reef is an ecosystem is contains substrate, water, microorganisms, fish, plants, and air. Balance within an ecosystem is important because without it will not maintain its stability. Every part of an ecosystem has a job to do, and when a species of an ecosystem disappears the balance is off kilter. If an invasive species is

TAXONOMY (From ancient greek: τάξισ taxis, "arrangement", and -νομία -nomia, "method") is the science of defining groups of biological organisms on the basis of shared characteristics and giving names to those groups. 5 KINGDOMS Kingdom is the highest rank used in the biological taxonomy of all organisms. There are 5 kingdoms in taxonomy. Every living thing comes under one of these 6 kingdoms. The six kingdoms are Monera, Protista, Fungi, Plantae, and Animalia. 1. KINGDOM MONERA [10

come from the knowledge that if we continue at this rate, then 30-50 percent of all species could be extinct by mid-century (Ibid & Thomas). Our text defines a biome as a major ecological community type characterized by a similar climate, soil, plant and animals (Turk & Bensel, 2014). I feel as if it is our duty to preserve samples of all biomes on the planet. We certainly have done our part in destroying them, so the least we can do is make an effort to preserve samples in hopes that we

Feeding Frenzy Every plant and animal species, no matter how big or small, depends to some extent on another plant or animal species for its survival. It could be bees taking pollen from a flower, photosynthesis of plants, deer eating shrub leaves or lions eating the deer. A food chain shows how energy is transferred from one living organism to another via food. It is important for us to understand how the food chain works so that we know what are the important living organisms

Make Children Healthy using Oregano Oil An Investigatory Project Submitted by: Aaliyah Maxine Rochelle Pangan Grade 4 St. Catherine Submitted to: Ms. Casiñas II. Rationale Your community is where you live in with your neighbors, so you got to keep it safe and healthy. By observing your community, you may get to know about it, get to know its problems and investigate the source of the problems. It is exciting to investigate because you can help your community to solve the problem

We know, from observation of ourselves, a casual law of the form “A causes B,” where A is a “thought” and B a physical occurrence” (Russell, 248). This schema is not only true for humans, but it is a detailed representation of higher up animals and plants as well. Every B is preceded by A, no matter the circumstance. The best way to show the correspondence is through “hunger”. When people that are hungry, realize that they are hungry they will more than likely find food to eat to satisfy that hunger
