extraterrestrial life forms and do not want to believe that we aren’t the only ones, but in this paper there is backed up facts and amazing discoveries that will make those people believe otherwise. From a recent online article, the “RT News English” states “fossilized algae recently discovered inside a Sri Lankan meteorite could finally
When I first heard that the next essay I would be writing was an I-Search essay, I hopped on the internet for a quick search of I-Search topics. After scrolling through various websites, I found a list that offered some thought-provoking topics; it was here that I found my topic of the Bermuda Triangle. At first, I argued with myself over this topic, because it did not seem worth writing about; but after remembering one of my favorite childhood movies, I knew that this was the perfect topic. So like
essential for photosynthesis to occur. The aim was to show that light is necessary for photosynthesis. Photosynthesis is the process of converting light energy into chemical potential energy and storing it as starch. This process occurs in plants and some algae. Plants need light energy, CO2, and H2O to make sugar. The process of photosynthesis takes place in the chloroplasts,
A thick coating of mud and/or algae frequently obscures the actual color of an individual’s carapace. Present at hatching, serrated rear marginal scutes remain dentate throughout the turtle’s life. Much smaller than that of most turtles relative to its overall body size, the adult snapping
Aquarium Research Paper Abstract: Fresh water tanks are the most common aquariums in houses and schools, many times people that have had a fresh water aquarium move on into a challenge by having a salt water aquarium. Fresh and salt water aquariums have something in common, they teach you how salt and fresh water fishes live and how they interact with other organisms. While taking care of a salt and a fresh water tank in this experiment my data showed that taking care of a salt water tank was
Research Paper The ocean is one of, if not, the largest biome on earth. There are more than one million species of marine life. Covering over 70 percent of the Earth’s surface, the ocean is our planet’s largest habitat, containing 99 percent of the living space on the planet. This area holds the life of nearly 50 percent of all species on Earth. Like lakes, oceans are subdivided into separate zones: intertidal, pelagic, abyssal, and benthic. All four zones have a great diversity of species. The
photosynthesis, and identify plant pigments found in a plant leaf by means of paper chromatography. Life on Earth is dependent entirely on the energy from the Sun, not only to keep the planet at a suitable temperature but also to provide the energy required to sustain life. The energy of the Sun, in the form of photons, is actively captured by chlorophyll and related pigments present in photosynthetic organisms, like plants and algae. This captured energy is used to convert carbon dioxide into complex energy-rich
highest energy density per weight, it was not already being exploited. Chief to the purpose of this paper on oil drilling lies in the words was and had. The fact that those words are in the past, and the idea that things superior to oil have come along, is something that needs to be brought up more often. The fact is that oil, as a resource, is simply out of date. The addiction that humanity has to ‘black gold’ is unprecedented in the history of mankind, and the reasons why this addiction is more dangerous
that was unhealthy and not ready to drink. Many survivors of the hurricane were affected by this water. Sewage water contains phosphates. Phosphates are not welcome in drinking water as they have the tendency to encourage the growth of algae. Excess growth of algae decreases the oxygen content in the water, which is very undesirable, as it makes the water undrinkable for humans. Also, phosphates can detriment the process of coagulation, which is an essential part of filtering raw water and making
Career Exploration Research Project 1.What is one short term goal you have on your agenda to achieve in the next couple of weeks to a month? Civil Engineer involves building infrastructures, tunnels and bridges which require places and could possibly harm an environment. One of the key term I must master is environmental regulations, during high school I took Environmental Science AP and had to learn about important acts. Since this semester I did not challenge myself I took it upon myself to remember
