people use everyday is oxygen. The Amazon produces more than 20% of the world’s oxygen. “The Amazon Rainforest has been described as the "Lungs of our Planet" because it provides the essential environmental world service of continuously recycling carbon dioxide into oxygen.” (Taylor, 2012) The next time you inhale, and fill your lungs with life giving oxygen be thankful to the rainforest. The rainforest has helped the world with many products, and all of them are important to everyday life. When

happens in the Indian Ocean. Oceans play a key role in the planet's water cycle. They are the sources of water vapor, which is necessary for heat transportation in the atmosphere. Excess water in the land flows to the oceans. Oceans act as huge reservoirs of carbon and play a major role in the global carbon cycle. Oceans play a critical role in regulating our planet's temperature. They act as thermostats. They absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, thereby reducing the temperature. They also

First and Second Laws of Thermodynamics flows The first law of thermodynamic state that energy cannot be destroys, it can only move from one form to the next, and it can be transfer. A number of essential cycles take place in the rainforest ecosystems, which is designed to help ensure the continuance flow of energy and nutrients throughout this ecosystem. The main

dependent on a healthy carbon dioxide-oxygen balance. Photosynthesis and cellular respiration are key processes in maintaining this balance. Plants, through the process of photosynthesis, use energy absorbed from sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide to produce sugars and oxygen. Animals and plants, through the process of cellular respiration, use oxygen and sugars to produce carbon dioxide, water, and the energy needed to maintain life. Purpose: To determine how carbon dioxide cycles through a biological

Lipids and their Importance in our Diet Western Governors University What are Lipids Lipids are non-polar organic molecules made up primarily of a glycerol molecule attached to a fatty acid chain. A fatty acid chain consists of carbon atom backbone with several hydrogen bonds (figure 1).One example of a fatty acid is triglyceride. A triglyceride is composed of a glycerol molecule and three fatty acid chains or tails. Lipids or fatty acids such as a triglyceride are used for energy storage

to consequences of human activity. That is why the term of sustainability was emerged. Carbon footprint and water footprint are special tools to measure the effects on the environment. It is better to have a look to definition of sustainability ; sustainability means use natural recourses by considering future generations demand for natural recourse. In this report, water footprint and carbon footprint are calculated for SMART building. Smart building is new building which was constructed
