Figure 1. shows the average leaf mass decomposition rate for invasive species leaves and native species leaves Results Explanation – In the experiment, we found that the invasive species leaves have a isopods faster decomposition rate than the native species leaves. The treatment used in the experiment differentiated only where the 1 gram (each) of the two different types of leaves were used. At the end of the experiment, the leaves had little to no moisture left to them and the 2 isopods were
Handout 2: CRAZY TAPE LAB PART A --- Directions: Read the steps and draw a picture to show the steps below. 1. When you get your 4 strips of tape, make a tab at the end of each strip. (Bend each end down so you have something unsticky to hold onto). 2. Stick two pieces of tape flat on the table. Write a “B” on each tab. (“B” for bottom tape). 3. Stick one piece of tape on top of each “bottom” tape. Write a “T” on each tab for “top” tape. Pick one person in your group to raise their
For example, a bartender has the interest of making drinks to satisfy his customers, while a computer programmer has the interest of making programs to create advances in technology. As a result, Thrasymachus categorizes the interest limited to only rulers and answers Socrates’s question that interest is what is “right”, “each type of government enacts laws that are in its own interest, a democracy democratic laws, a tyranny tyrannical ones and so on; and in
The first rhetorical strategy I used in my descriptive paragraphs was word choice. I bring this up first because without it, the reader has a vague perception of the story. Although if used accordingly, it revives the story and the reader can fully grasp what you want them to see. The best use of this in my positive paragraph was “spacious”. I wanted the reader to visualize a vast and roomy drive thru while reading my paragraph. Although I could’ve used other words like “large”, or “big” they wouldn’t
To be an efficient ruler they must possess the ability to project beast like attitude, with this correlated with this is the justification of a ruler for breaking his word, this idea only applies if doing otherwise will place a ruler at a disadvantage within his society. These two characteristics are inevitable and imperative to rulers if they hope to be successful. For a ruler, presentation is key to leading a successful society. They must learn to be “Half man, half beast.” Machiavelli points
conclude that Confucius taught governmental morality, the behavior of a ruler, how rulers should maintain order, and mistakes of rulers. Confucius taught that government should be strict and precise. In government, princes were to appoint the minister by following the rules of propriety. Ministers were to follow the orders of the prince with adherence. The ruler should appoint office positions to whom they know. In government, the ruler must rectify himself and others. Confucius thought that the first
Investigation to find out whether light distribution affects the abundance of daisy's on The Downs School playing field, Compton. Hypothesis: As the light intensity goes up the abundance of daisy's on The Downs School field will also increase. Equipment: • 10 meter tape measure • light intensity meter • Identification key • Thermometer • soil depth spike • PH Probe • quadrat 0.5 by 0.5 Method: 1. Line up the tape measure from the chosen tree on the ground. 2. Place the quadrat on the ground
shadow. Once we understood how to complete the task and why it would work, we were put into teams of 3 to 4 people and began measuring our actual heights. The person whose height we were measuring would stand against the wall, and someone would hold a ruler above their head and make sure it was flat. Once it was, the person whom we were measuring could move so another team member could use a tape measure to find
The Mandate of Heaven, the idea that a ruler reigned only with the blessing of the heavens, was seen as a way to legitimize a dynasty and its ruler. Although it may seem as if a heavenly mandate gives a ruler absolute power, this is actually not the case. Instead, Mencius, a philosopher who emphasizes benevolent governance, asserts that a ruler can both acquire and lose the heavenly mandate based on his behavior and the treatment of his subjects. If a ruler is not equitable, in other words, the Mandate
J.B van Helmont’s Willow experiment taught the world a whole lot, not just with the scientific method but it also taught us about trees and where the mass comes from. Helmont wanted to find out about the mass of a tree, so he chose to do an experiment. Van Helmont had a hypothesis, his hypothesis states that the mass of tree comes from the soil, which is what majority of college students today say. But he had to prove that first. To begin Helmont’s experiment, he took 200 pounds of dried soil
