Roots grow deep in the earth. They can be traced back hundreds of years, being a constant in an ever-changing world. They can provide growth to the smallest of ideas or the largest of theories, transporting knowledge up phloems and xylems. Roots can remind us of our beginnings, they can bring us back to our fundamentals when we seem lost in a whirlwind of complexities. Whenever my life gets convoluted and I feel like my goals have been mixed up in a jumble of busyness, I like to sit down and remember

population would kill the ecosystem. Plants in water live off of bacteria, When bacteria is scarce, the Zooplankton and other under water animals and bugs, which eat plants would die off. After the plants and small animals like Zooplankton die off, then Oysters, Crabs, and other species start to die off also since they really have nothing else to eat. When crabs and other animals when run out of zooplankton to eat they would eat bacteria of plants but if there are no plants they have nothing to fall back

Humans have been interested in trying to clone animals that have gone extinct. Jurassic Park is a movie series based on what happens when a scientist did manage to clone these extinct creatures. The DNA of a woolly mammoth has recently been found, and now the discussion of cloning has been back in the media. This has become an important topic that society needs to think about now that technology has continued to advance. Bringing back extinct creatures could become a reality, not just science fiction

The trends in the results depict that wildebeests spend more time standing or lying down, while zebras tend to spend the majority of their time grazing throughout the day. Since wildebeest and zebras are two different species, each one has its own basics needs that must be met. From the results, it can be inferred that zebras require less food more frequently while wildebeest require more food less frequently. This can be accounted through their digestive physiologies since monogastric animals tend

Intro: Imagine a world without a specific species, nobody can see them anywhere anymore, not even the zoo. Well it’s a tragedy that is very possible and is happening here in our realm. Poaching in Africa is very natural, although globally illegal, and any animal is susceptible to these executioners. Not only are animals being affected by poachers, but also tribes that occupy the lands rely on the animals for food. The result of so many animals being poached in areas that tribes employ, the tribes

are critical for plants to grow healthily. However, whether additional Vitamins have an impact on plant growth is not well understood yet. A popular example of nutrients would be minerals. Plants can produce the Vitamin themselves. They also have the ability to gather and convert Vitamins from sunlight. There is this debate on whether additional Vitamins are considered essential for plant growth. It is necessary to investigate if Vitamins could also benefit the growth of plants when they are with

Part 1: Why were you initially interested in this “element?” I was initially interested in a pond because I thought it could be not only be an aesthetically pleasing addition to the site, but also provide educational and environmental advantages to the Falmouth schools community. A pond, for example could be used in science classes to help students learn about the PH of water, or about the life cycle of a frog. After the pond was established I also thought that it could be utilized to grow aquatic

bean plants located in the terrestrial environment. Two heterotrophs found in my Ecocolumn are the ladybugs that live in the terrestrial region and the guppies which are in the aquatic region. Data that we recorded from our Ecocolumn demonstrated that both the autotrophs and the heterotrophs were interacting and were reliant on each other. For example, when we had placed the ladybugs into the terrestrial environment, we noticed that they were eating the aphids who are pests that eat the plants. The

De-extinction is the process of bringing bringing back animals.It sounds like a scientific term to bring animals back like the wooly mammoths.We need to bring them back because they are like elephants and a lot of people never have seen them in real life except for cavemen.I think that this is a very good idea. First we need to research to find the evidence that mammoths are very important and that we need to bring them back.George Church says de-extinction is a good idea.”Mammoths could keep the

Growing a plant is a great way to develop a healthy habit as it allows a person to gain responsibility from taking care of the plant as well as being able to grow their own food. Growing food is a type of social norm that is often well received, in fact there almost seems to be a societal pressure to grow plants. Currently today there is a large movement towards being more ecologically friendly, whether it be by owning electric cars or growing your own food. Durkheim talked about societal pressures
