Marko Kolundzija - 214162898 SLE103 – Ecology and the Enviroment Tutor - Claire Binek   Introduction Ecosystem is a biological community of living organisms/biotic components (plants & animals) and non-living/abiotic elements (sunlight, soil, air & water) within a specific area, together forming a complex system in which they interact and adversely affect & depend on each other in one form or another (food chain, mineral recycling, trophic flow). It’s extremely important to study ecosystems not only

says, “Look with what courteous action it wafts you to a more removed ground / But do not go with it” (1.4.60-62). The “removed ground” that Marcellus seems to be referring to is hell. Horatio suggests that the ghost’s goal may actually be to trick Hamlet and lead him to destruction or even death when he warns him by stating, “What if it tempt you toward the flood my lord / or to the dreadful summit of the cliff / That beetles o’er his base into the sea” (1.4.69-71). Shakespeare places these warnings

beat and comb the plant until they could withdraw all the fibers. The fibers where then spun on spindles into thread and then the thread was places on a loom. The loom were two types of looms, one made from simply hammering long wooden pegs into the ground and another with a frame and pegs that would lean up against a wall. The women who made the fabrics where called

which bases its explanation of the existence of God on the design and purpose of known things. For instance, we know that there are trees and plants, and that they need sunlight and water in order to grow. Those trees and plants grow from the ground, which is part of the earth. The earth is part of the universe and God had created the universe hence God does exist. The universe works all too perfect for it to have been created in a spontaneous explosion, in it

Racial Differences in The Tempest        The Tempest is a classic example of Shakespeare’s dichotomized notions of right and wrong within the context of racial inherencies, a social commentary of the colonialism of the New World. An important theme in the play is the racial differentiation between Caliban and the other antagonists, primarily, Prospero, who comes to the island and enslaves Caliban to enforce his own rule. This relationship, as portrayed through the play, is a reflection of the historical

around since 1935 when the Russian scientist Andrei Nikolaevitch Belozersky isolated pure DNA, and is being used by many farmers and large international corporations (Shireen). For example, a tomato farmer changes the genes of the tomato to prevent a beetle from eating it. However, genetically modified organisms are becoming detrimental to our bodies and health and there are ways the government can help Americans eat healthier by labeling products with genetically modified organisms. Since 1994, GMOs

Gardening is a beneficial aspect of anyone’s day to day life. It’s something that is enjoyable for the elderly, young children, single people, and married couples. Gardening is also a way to bring the family together. Whether the garden is for aesthetic or utilitarian purposes, the hard work put into the garden is worthwhile. Gardens can provide financial relief, a healthier diet, and a healthier lifestyle. Gardening could also be a great life lesson that is carried and passed on through generations

With just 3.2 percent of Americans eating a vegetarian diet, 0.5 of them being vegan, consuming animal products is part of an everyday culture in the United States (“Vegetarianism in America”). Choosing to not consume animals may be seen as strange and unhealthy. Vegan and Vegetarian diets may be seen as restrictive because people are often misinformed about the lifestyle. During a course of one year, the average person will consume thirty-one land animals (Livestock Slaughter 2000...); on average

The conservative scenario results in net reduction of more than 0.5 gigatons of carbon per year. The net reduction in moderate and optimistic scenarios are around 1.25 gigatons and almost 2 gigatons of carbon per year respectively. Under the optimistic plus scenario, the reduction is about 2.2 gigatons per year by 2050(“Using Biochar Systems to Sequester Carbon | Agricultural Marketing Resource Center”). The author further discusses the role that biochar systems can play in reducing greenhouse emissions

twenty-two miles per hour. In Australia, Jeeps lay underground cable at an airport. One of the jeeps pulled a plow that was used to dig the ditch. A different jeep towed a reel of cable, and a third pulled a roller to cover the exposed cable and level the ground in the process ("The Incredible Jeep"). The Jeep also proved to be a rather effective offensive weapon. On the Pacific island of Saipan, United States Marines equipped their vehicles with a rocket launcher intended to be fired at the dug-in Japanese
