categorize the responder to be being bullied but he/she might not feel as they are being bullied. If a person doesn't feel being bullied is it right to account others as the persecutor? Most of the database samples were isolated to Ethnic, Gender and Geology, specially in the management level researches. Example: Surveys conducted by Etienne (Exploring Workplace Bullying in Nursing, 2014, p8) and Johnson (JONA, Vol 45,No. 9, p458), responds rate was at merely at 1% and samples were predominately White

Explore the physical causes of tectonic hazards, including the significance of differing plate boundaries and other factors. Research the spatial pattern of tectonic hazards and their causes in contrasting tectonic locations. For question 1, you would probably need to go into some detail about continental and oceanic plates and how they move (by convection currents in the core). You should consider the following types of plate boundary: 1. Destructive boundaries These are sub-divided into:

seafloor spreading was discovered which provided a mechanism for continental drift. * The continental drift theory was further developed after these findings and became the foundations of plate tectonics theory. Evidence for the theory: Geology: - Areas of South America and Africa have rocks of the same age and composition. If you fit the continents together the distribution of the rocks match up. You can also match up the age, rock type and distribution of some mountain ranges. E.g. mountains

Exploring Taiwan---Taiwan Is Alive How does it feel like to live on a floating plate, unaware of probable earthquakes and tectonic movements? I understood how it feels like because I live in Taiwan! After an introduction to the geology of Taiwan, I found Taiwan a really active and dynamic island. This reminded me of an article I read on New York Times years ago; it titled: Taiwan Moves Closer to Mainland, Pulled by Forces That Molded Its Mountains. In the article, there were a research team
