Freshwater is needed for agriculture‚ hydroelectric power‚ and drinking water. The United States uses 9 X 1011 liters of freshwater everyday.1 Freshwater is not completely pure. Its composition is based on dissolved solutes ranging

The Importance Paulo Coelho explained‚ “Why is patience so important?" "Because it makes us pay attention.” Being patient and attention to detail are few of many characteristics that are essential to being a proficient healthcare provider. Healthcare providers have a very important job and these characteristics correspond to one another in everyday actions. I always thought of myself as a very patient person and while working at a daycare realized that along with patience came the importance of

and housing and to continually upgrade the standard of living. Some of the materials needed are renewable resources‚ such as agricultural and forestry products‚ while others are nonrenewable‚ such as minerals. The USGS reported in Materials Flow and Sustainability (1998) that the number of renewable resources is decreasing‚ meanwhile there is an increasing demand for nonrenewable resources. Since 1900 the use of construction materials such as stone‚ sand‚ and gravel‚ has soared. The large-scale

• Explanation of the concept of natural selection and how it takes place The theory of natural selection was developed by Charles Darwin and Alfred Russel Wallace. They suggested that the mechanism of natural selection was that some organisms have characteristics that are better suited to the environment they live in then others that don’t have these characteristics. These organisms are then more expected to survive to reproduce offspring with these characteristics‚ over generations new organisms

Energy Resources and their Uses in Producing Electricity Renewable energy is energy drawn from natural processes that are restored quicker than they are used up‚ some renewable energy resources are biomass‚ food‚ wind‚ waves‚ flowing water‚ solar and geothermal. The sun however‚ is known to be the ultimate energy resource since almost all energy resources originate from the sun’s energy. This is possible according to the law of conservation of energy which states that energy can’t be destroyed

The phenomena of Natural Disasters An earthquake is sudden motion or trembling of the ground produced by the abrupt displacement of rock masses. HOW DO THEY OCCUR? The earth’s outer shell is divided into seven major and some smaller plates which are constantly in a dynamic state‚ pushing against‚ pulling away from‚ or grinding past one another. Forces build up as the plates attempt to move in relation to each other. When the adhesions along the fault give way‚ stored energy is released in the

Water is extremely important to all living things and even to non-living things‚ indirectly. Therefore‚ the way water travels and gets to a place is also extremely important because its transportation methods determine the chemicals that get involved and added into the water as it travels. This relates to the hardness of water. The

The Museum of Natural History Museums are essential for sustaining the world’s biological and cultural diversity. Yet they can do more without undermining their commitment to thorough and rigorous science. For example‚ they can increase the accessibility of their collections. The advent of new information technologies allows natural history museums to digitize collections and to make associated scientific data accessible to wide audiences. These technologies enable the sharing of data with countries

the allocation of scarce resources among competing ends. To some extent‚ virtually everything is scarce - money‚ food‚ water‚ dates for the prom... but some resources are scarcer than others‚ and deserve special attention from those with the tools to allocate them properly. Basically scarce resources can be defined as the limit a society has on a particular resource that is less obtainable than others which are readily attainable. Some examples of some scarce resources that are found commonly in
