Zephyr Steppes Research Paper

How can we create a model farm out of the materials we are given and explain how a farm works all while using math?

Zebulon Montgomery Pike was an American brigadier general and explorer. Pikes Peak in Colorado is named after Zebulon Pike. He was a United States Army captain in 1806 to 1807. Pike led the Pike Expedition; he was sent out to explore the southern Louisiana territory and to find where the start of the Red River was. Since Zebulon Pike’s part confused their location they found themselves in Colorado, during The Pike Expedition. They were later on captured by the Spaniards. They were released from Chihuahua, Mexico in 1807 at the border of Louisiana after being captured. Pike published a paper about all his expeditions in 1810. After Pike published his paper, he achieved the rank of general in the Army. Zebulon Pike served during the War of 1812,

In our experiment, we created three crosses; DxG,BxD, and BxG. In crosses BxG and BxD we found a rare mutant fly. This unusual mutant had a misshapen abdomen, deformed wings, and was pale in color. While the mutant was rare, due to the fact that it popped up in both those populations, we hypothesized that this genetic mutant had already previously been discovered and named.

In the short story, “A Worn Path” by Eudora Welty, the story's protagonist Phoenix Jackson travels from her home through the forest, to town where she goes to retrieve a remedy for her grandson's throat. Phoenix Jackson is an elderly black woman on a difficult, dangerous journey through the cold winter to reach the city. To maintain her balance through this journey and to ward off wild animals slinking through the woods, Phoenix walks with a thin cane made from an umbrella. She has made this trip many times before, however, this time around is much more difficult due to her aging body and fragile bones.

Its wings are too small to get 10. its fat little body off the ground. 11. 12. 13.

Deidara ignored his rude comment as he leaped on top of the clay bird, taking a seat at the front because he was the navigator of this thing. "Pein told us that the Jinchuriki is in the cloud village. It's going to take us three days, so we should just fly for now until we reach the village, then we'll start walking to keep a low profile," Deidara lifted his arm to remove his Akatsuki hat, causing the tiny bell attached to emit a ringing sound as he set it down. He craned his neck to look over at the ground, watching as the trees below them got smaller and smaller, to the size of ants. He enjoyed taking in the scenery as they passed through all woods, and flew over a lake. This went on for a few tiresome hours, until the sun started to set.

“The Flight of Icarus” is about Daedalus and his son, Icarus, trying to escape a labyrinth . Daedalus made wings from feathers and wax to escape. Daedaus told Icarus to no go to high into the sky or too low but then Icarus went to high up and the wax started melting. Icarus didn't pay attention to Daedalus about staying in a moderate flight zone, and then he fell in the ocean and drowned. I would encourage you to not take risks, and if you still won't listen then remember what happened to Icarus.

Daedalus carefully explains to his son, Icarus, how to use the wings he has invented. Even though Icarus is very mischievous, Daedalus trusts that he will take his warnings into consideration; however, his warning foreshadows Icarus’ downfall. His instructions connect to Icarus’ death since Icarus both melts the wax from the feathers and becomes too heavy to escape the waters. Given Daedalus’ instructions, Icarus was determined to fail since he had to delicately fly in between the waves and the sun, no explicit boundaries are in place. It is ironic that Daedalus fails to predict his son’s behavior, yet he equips Icarus with a such an instrument that requires a high skill to operate; therefore, Daedalus indirectly kills his only son.

In the story “The Flight of Icarus” at first when his father had made him wings he was cautious about learning to fly. He knew that if he flew too close to the ocean the water would make his wings wet and heavy. He also knew that if he flew too close to the sun that the heat would melt the wax holding the feathers of his wings into place. When his father first said that when he would teach him he was cautious but then as he got used to it and took his freedom for granted. He had flown too close to the sun and “The blazing sun beat down on the wings and floated softly down, warning Icarus to stay his flight and glide the earth.”

When characterizing Icarus, Daedalus’ son, one of the best parts that describes Icarus is when his father is making the wings.

Once when he was attempting a high-speed dive he crashed into a cliff wall. Physical pain along with mental pain caused him to stumble. He heard a voice in the back of his head telling him to just give up and that learning to fly wasn’t worth the trouble. He almost listened to the voice, but instead got up and tried again.

Birds have beautiful feathers and lovely songs that bring joy and wonder to us humans. And flight is the feature that probably captures the human imagination more than anything else. For millennia, people have watched birds in the sky and wished we could fly, too.
