Our planet is composed of 70% water and 30% of land. Our body is also composed of 2/3 of water. In other words life without water is INPOSIBLE.Imagine what would happen if amount of water in nature would be drastically reduced? I believe we all know the answer and the consequences. The entire flora‚ fauna and the entire human being will die slowly. Now a day‚ we have a lot of amount of water in our planet but that is a big paradox because a big part from that water is polluted. Basically living the

lifeboat. Pi states that the trees grew out of algae and that there was no soil on the island. On the contrary‚ there is no evidence that Pi had really encountered such a bizarre island on his travels. “The fabric of the island seemed to be an intricate‚ tightly webbed mass of tube-shaped seaweed” (Martel 257)‚ yet in the very next line‚ Pi admits to himself that this is an imaginary island‚ as “I (he) thought”. The trees that Pi saw were growing out of algae instead of soil. Scientifically‚ it is not

Dead Zones in the Baltic Sea Franki M Abstract Dead zones‚ also known as hypoxic zones‚ are areas in the ocean where oxygen levels have been depleted or are depleting. Hypoxia could be due to natural reasoning‚ but more commonly it is a result of careless and uninformed inhabitants of the coast near that ocean. Farming‚ sewage‚ factories and fishing are all major causes of dead zones. If our oceans continue to lose oxygen‚ we will eventually no longer have marine animals/marine

Natural phenomena such as volcanoes‚ algae blooms‚ storms‚ and earthquakes also cause major changes in water quality and the ecological status of water.

to keep your door clean if you do it every few months. Otherwise‚ you may need to buy special cleaners and do some scrubbing to get rid of algae and other stains that develop. The location of your garage door plays a big part in how much work you’ll need to do to keep it sparkling clean. If the door is in shade most of the day‚ you’ll need to watch for algae and mildew. If you live near dirt roads‚ dust can be a problem when it builds up in the grooves and then turns to grime when it rains. Even

sequestration depend in large part on the methods used. Capturing CO2 gas and piping it underground is‚ as another answerer suggested‚ risky and probably inefficient. But other methods may hold more promise. For example‚ using algae to sequester carbon‚ then burying the algae‚ eliminates the problem of the tendency of a gas to escape confinement. The major advantage of employing some kind of carbon sequestration technology is that it can‚ in effect‚ reverse some fraction of our bad habits with regard

vital role in respiration because it helps oxygen pass through their skin and blood‚ helping animals breathe. Respiration in marine plants was a much more difficult transition than the transition of animals. Plants‚ such as algae‚ used diffusion. This process allows the algae to obtain a sufficient amount of carbon dioxide. During their transition to land‚ plants still demanded a higher amount of oxygen. To do this‚ plants evolved a stomata‚ which is like a mouth-shaped opening. The stomata regulated

Cell wall is a fairly rigid‚ protective and supportive layer surrounding the cell external to plasma membrane of plants‚ bacteria‚ archaea‚ fungi and algae. It is absent in animals and most protists. It was first observed by Robert Hooke in 1665. It is not an entirely rigid structure as the cell wall expands due to the growth of the cell. It varies in thickness from o.1mm to I0mm.in most of the cells‚ cell wall is present from the very beginning to the last‚ but in slime molds (myxomycetes)
