uses and limitations of using models in science. The Plum Pudding Model is an atom model proposed by J.J Thomson‚ the physicist who discovered the electron. In Thomson’s "Plum Pudding Model" each atom was a sphere filled with a positively charged fluid. The fluid was called the "pudding." Scattered in this fluid were electrons known as the "plums." The radius of the model was 10-10 meters. Thomson suggested that the positive fluid held the negative charges‚ the electrons‚ in the atom because of electrical

Spring and All‚ spring is a dreadful time of sorrow and death. Gluck’s For Jane Meyers focuses on a more positive tone‚ describing a kid excited for the coming of spring so much than he could just die. These two poems use numerous instances of imagery to illustrate the worst and best qualities of spring.

In her paper‚ Defence of Abortion‚ Judith Jarvis Thomson takes a more “pro-choice” approach and argues for the justification of abortion in more circumstances than not.

I believe that even though inconvenient

Towards the lower end of my continuum‚ I placed the book Cinder by Marissa Meyer. I choose to put his book here because it was one of the easier books I’ve read this year‚ but it was not the least difficult.

After meeting a royal customer who wished to hire her services as a mechanic‚ the mysteries of her past began to unfold. Despite
