energy have limits on how much it can produce and when supplies will run out. Since energy has limits it changes the way people view society and the culture people have grown to love. There are many different kinds of energy. Energy is everywhere and is apart of everything. All the different forms have one thing in common, that they have the ability to work but have limits.

(specifically, photosynthesis). Virtually all the energy you use was created by biological processes. (Oil and coal are both ultimately derived from plant matter.) D. Biology connects to my life due to many factors; for one my school is almost completely surrounded by a swamp in which, occasionally, I see its various organisms and plant species. Another way biology connects to my everyday life is the bread I eat, in which before it’s made into a sandwich (or even into bread for that matter)

“There’s nothing bigger than a man who learns to grow.” This sentence appeared in the story “The Growin of Paul Bunyan”. I agree with this statement because it’s not an easy choice to make.

401Ks, etc for our retirement that it is imperative that our financial portfolio be diversified in such a manner that when part of the portfolio drops in value other parts of the portfolio will climb so that we may maintain, protect and continue to grow our funds in preparation for retirement.

DESIGN: Research Question: The purpose of this lab is to determine how the wavelength of light that alfalfa sprouts are exposed to affects the rate of photosynthesis in those plants. Hypothesis: Photosynthesis will occur at the highest frequency when the alfalfa plants are exposed to blue light (475 nm) ("What Wavelength Goes With a Color?"). The second highest amount of photosynthesis will occur when the alfalfa plants are exposed to red light (650 nm) ("What Wavelength Goes With a Color

packaged products, upgrade computers rather than buying new ones... the list is endless! Reduce, Reuse and Recycle. Make it a habit to reduce the things we need or we consume. Purchase only things that we only need and eat only what you can. Let us do our share not to be part of the problem or should I say part of the garbage problem. Reuse all the things that can still be repaired/fixed or those things that are still okay. Recycle things to conserve our resources, collect old newspapers, books

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
