Aristotle defined nature “as an internal origin of change or stability”1. Natural substances are things such as animals, plants and inanimate matter like earth, water, fire and air. Each natural substance according to Aristotle has its own nature, which is what gives rise to its natural behaviour/characteristic. The nature of a natural substance is its inner principle/source of change.2 Therefore natural substances are capable of motion i.e. growing, gaining qualities, losing them and lastly being
of which matter is composed. Also the investigation of their properties and the ways in which they interact, combine and change. Matter is based on the physical and the chemical structure and matter is made up of atoms. There are three states of matter and they are solid, liquid, and gas. The properties of a solid, liquid, and gas all depend on how the particles are packed. There are three states of matter and they are solid, liquid, gas, and plasma. The properties of solids depend on how the particles

humankind due to the issue of climate change. These issues can have a long lasting effect on the world and can cause health risks for humans. Although climate change is a global issue, it doesn’t not affect each region the same. There are many ways that climate change can affect a particular region or sector. The affects could be an area having less rainfall than usual while another area could have a surprising high amount of rainfall.

drinkable, used for showers, simple, washing, etc.. But people don’t really know how complex and important water is for our kind. Water is one of the most precious things we humans have, but we don’t realize it and we damage it without caring for the consequences. Water and water pollution are two things that we should all have in mind. Even though we see water as just a liquid, but there’s more to it than its form or state. One of the most common descriptions for water is that it is transparent and
The role of measurement How does the mechanism proceed from theory to measurement and to policy-making? Once the phenomenon is examined within a conceptual framework; I intend to go further with a methodological understanding and questioning of the mechanism in which immigration is modelled, measured, and intervened with the policies. In order to inquire this, the first emphasis goes on the link between theory and measurement; and then to the way the scientific process is translated into real world
The presidential debates have changed throughout the years. From my perspective debates do matter because the candidates debate to get chosen to change the United States into a better place. Appearance shouldn't matter but what you say and how you act should. If there were no debate there might wouldnt be a president nor voter. The candidates debate to change the United States.This year's debaters (Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton) are more concerned and after each other than the US. Both candidate
