Arctic Survival – From Success to Failure Contrary to the outcome exhibited by most other groups during the Arctic Survival exercise‚ our team score (34) was lower than my individual score (64). This is not to suggest that group collaboration is detrimental; in fact‚ our outcome was unique among the class and of great surprise to the professor and entire class section. To be sure‚ pooling resources‚ elaboration of material‚ and support and motivation‚ while perhaps more time consuming‚ typically

The Arctic Circle is located at a latitude of 66 degrees 33 feet 39 inches North. The problem with this statement is the actual latitude of the Arctic Circle is continuously changing due to the tilt of the Earth. It is important to maximize your sample size when developing a predictive model like the height and shoe length model we explored in the Experimental Laboratory 1. What is the purpose of a large sample size? A large sample size provides the scientist with a more accurate representation

Like when we were testing the water and ice biomes there was a pretty steady temp. for both but‚ the water biome had an unexpected increase of 1.5º right at the end but this did not occur for the ice biome. With all the other biomes the temperatures increased under the lamp and when the light was turned out it decreased as suspected. Something that was strange though was that greenhouse gasses biome had a steady increase with the light but when the light was turned off

bringing in nonnative fauna and flora‚ and most of all due to the range of biomes within their country. The natural biomes that occur in the Dominican Republic vary from very dry biomes to very wet biomes. The most common biome in the Dominican Republic is subtropical coniferous forests‚ due to low levels of precipitation and adequate temperature variability. These trees have needle-leafs in order to adapt to drought. This type of biome shares some of the flora and fauna common to tropical and subtropical

There are two types of rainforest biomes: tropical and temperate. Tropical rainforests are found near the equator and are moist and hot all year round. The climate in this biome is very humid‚ maintaining a high humidity of 77% to 88% all year round‚ due to the frequent rainfall. The rainfall is all year round and receive annual precipitation amounts from 60 to 160 inches. There is little to no seasonal changes in weather. The average temperature in tropical rainforests range from 70 to 85°F (21

What happens to the resting membrane potential when extracellular K+ concentration is increased? -The resting membrane potential will become more positive when K+ concentration is increased. 2. Explain why the resting membrane potential had the same value in the cell body and in the axon. -The resting membrane potential has the same value in the cell body and the axon because the typical resting membrane potential is the same throughout

Biomes- Marine and Tropical Rainforest The world is full of many different biomes. The ones I am most fascinated by are the tropical rainforest biome and the marine biome. Each is interesting in its own way. I have decided to narrow the marine biome down and focus on the Pacific Ocean. I am interested to see how these two compare and contrast. Although it may seem that our climate does not affect the marine biome‚ it does. During El Nino‚ the trade winds slacken and sometimes even change direction
