INTRODUCING WITH BIOCHEMICAL CYCLES Biochemical cycles Nutrients are important for organisms to function. Each nutrient has a role in global biogeochemical cycles. A nutrient is a chemical that organisms need to live and grow and are substances an organism’s uses for metabolism which must be taken in from its environment that enrich the organism. Two types of nutrients are macronutrients and micronutrients. Macronutrients are needed in large quantities while micronutrients are needed in smaller

Adventures of Zircon and Carbon Zircon and Carbon were brothers from the Triangulum Galaxy. They are two twin aliens that stood 6’7 and were a stunning color of mint green. They traveled 2.7 light years to get to Earth for a special mission. The mission was currently unknown. They were rushed on to a spacecraft and only sent with coordinates and supplies to lead them along the way. The coordinates they had read “Latitude: -64.15164‚ Longitude: -10.58414‚ Distortion: 5.26.” The spacecraft finally

STRUCTURAL MATERIAL: CARBON FIBER Carbon Fiber is a structural material of graphite which is an allotrope of carbon. Therefore Carbon Fibre consists of carbon atoms in an atomic structure similar to Graphite. Carbon Fibre is composed of filament threads and within these threads are an accumulation of thousands of fine Carbon filaments. A filament has a diameter of approximately 5-10 micrometers. (Madehow‚ 2012) Due to the substantial stability in bonding between Graphite and Carbon Fiber the structure

The human population is expected to double in the next 50 years‚ and the ever-growing global population needs vast amounts of food‚ energy and raw materials. We cannot continue to get our food‚ energy and raw materials in the way we do now without damaging the earth’s environment beyond repair. Pollution‚ deforestation‚ over-fishing‚ the impact of intensive farming and above all global warming will see to that. We need to find ways of improving food productivity‚ and getting our energy and raw materials

For all of presence the universe has been a cycle of creation‚ decimation and re-creation. There is no starting nor end to the cycle‚ nor did it have a starting and nor will it ever end. Every physical item and vitality is made and decimated in a continually equivalent sum. At a certain point in this ’Cycle of the Universe’ the two divine beings‚ Athesis and Miridious were reawakened. By their own qualities and convictions 2 was a holy number‚ thus when they assemble their kingdom of light they assembled
