While ex-situ conservation comprises some of the oldest and best known conservation methods‚ it also involves newer‚ sometimes controversial laboratory methods. Colony relocation Normally

Laboratory Report The title of the lab that we completed in class was The Law of Conservation of Matter. The purpose of this lab was to find out if matter can be created or destroyed in a chemical reaction. Dalton came up with the atomic theory‚ which included the law of conservation of matter. His theory was that matter cannot be created or destroyed and that chemical reactions only rearrange the way that atoms are combined; the atoms themselves don’t change. The procedure went like this

This paper will emphasize the conservation strategies surrounding Orangutans and the reasons as to why they are so desperately needed. Orangutans are quickly becoming more and more endangered‚ and are expected to become completely extinct by the year 2025. ( ) In a world where humans have the capability to destroy these lands that once solely belonged to these primates‚ humans also have the ability to conserve and protect this species. The ways in which humans and international conservatory groups

Wildlife & Conservation Statistics Extinction of Species • Every 20 minutes‚ the world adds another 3‚500 human lives but loses one or more entire species of animal or plant life - at least 27‚000 species per year. (Source: PBS) • At the present rates of extinction‚ as many as 20% of the world’s 7-15 million species could be gone in the next 30 years. This rate of extinction has been unprecedented since the disappearance of dinosaurs 65 million years ago (Source: WWF). Habitat Destruction (Source:

Maggie Haas Reiter Honors Physic 8 March 2015 Background Information: Anything that has mass and is moving has momentum. Momentum is equal to the objects mass times its velocity. Momentum is conserved‚ which means that “momentum before an event equals momentum immediately after‚ or pi=pf”. Since pi=pf‚ then pai+ pbi = paf+ pbf and (ma* vai)+ (mb* vbi)= (ma* vaf) + (mb * vbf). Having velocity simply means that an object has a speed and direction. Using the formula “(ma * vai) + (mb * vbi)
