In his story, “The Old Forest,” Taylor examines the regional history and social structures that shaped his own past and how breaking the architecture that has existed for generations is not easily accomplished. Although it takes place in 1937, with progressive girls and college students filling the city of Memphis with intellectualism and open sexuality, the social constructions of the past, most specifically the descendents of plantation owners and rich socialites, are not easily forgotten. Lines have been drawn between those

  (3)Major errors that could occurred during this investigation was that groups were not able to give out a confidence measurement as in a total that nine group might have performed this observation by using their particular way, which means the data collection might be uncertain due to the groups perform the experiment differently. On top of it, it is important that whether the performed group used a ground as a reference point for recording the height of stem from the plant, which would lead to the failed of the hypothesis and draw an incorrect result at the end of this observation.

The introduction to my poem is a scene of two kids playing in the woods. It’s meant to illustrate their unadulterated friendship, and introduce the forest as a place of comfort due to childhood memories. After they say goodbye, I decided to make the scene reveal to be a flashback because I wanted it to be a sharp change to a changed and nostalgic present. Also, portraying the opening scene as a flashback provides an exposition of both the characters’ relationship, and of the forest, which serves a great purpose in the narrative, providing a place of comfort for the characters. I portrayed the introduction as a flashback primarily through the first stanza in the boy’s point of view, specifically the word “reverie” showing how it was a daydream, and “fond” portraying how he felt very warmly about the memory.

This lab is designed to help student observe the forest community. After this lab, student will be able to distinguish the ecological concept that determine the distribution of population size. The main objectives of this lab were to figure out the density of tree species in the forest community, explain the significance of each species, interpret the concept of species diversity or similarity, contrast between the canopy and understudy forest structure, explain the affect of abiotic and biotic conditions on forest community. We have used the point quarter method to collect our data. We have predicted that there was a significant difference in the abiotic condition between the slope site and the lower site. We concluded that abiotic condition can affect the growth of a population by influencing an organisms to grow and
