There have been roughly ten distinct revisions of the protocol. Since Revision 3.4 in June 1989 there has been an effort to stabilize the design. This has been accomplished. The most recent versions - Revision 3.4 and 3.5 - were about 14 months apart whereas

The evolution of plants has resulted in increasing levels of complexity‚ from the earliest algal mats‚ through bryophytes‚ lycopods‚ ferns to the complex gymnosperms and angiosperms of today. While the groups which appeared earlier continue to thrive‚ especially in the environments in which they evolved‚ each new grade of organisation has eventually become more "successful" than its predecessors by most measures. Probably an algal scum formed on land 1‚200 million years ago. In the Ordovician period

The Evolution of Whales “Their tongues alone can weigh as much as an elephant and their hearts as much as a car.” The animal called whales what are the largest‚ intelligent and aquatic mammals. However‚ whales were not the aquatic animals at the beginning. After thousands of years of evolution‚ since changes in the terrestrial environment and the demand for food‚ the whales become appearance like a graceful arc from the four limbs. We have to imagine that what happened in the past thousand years

My nursing career began at an early age and I didn’t even know it. When I was young I was the “go-to” for all my cousins when they got hurt. When I was twelve I remember giving my grandmother injections in her stomach after a surgery because she was too afraid to. Although I began my nursing journey in my late twenties‚ many of my life experiences lead me to the decision to start the process of becoming a nurse. After I graduated high school I was at a loss of what I wanted to do for the rest of

mammalian evolution towards colonization of land‚ however in some instances this trend has been reversed; there are three large orders of mammals that have separately re-adapted to marine life‚ the Cetacea (whales‚ dolphins and porpoises)‚ the Pinnipedia (seals‚ sea lions and walruses)‚ and the Sirenia (dugongs‚ sea cows and manatees). This “re-adaptation” is most extreme in the cetaceans which have evolved a totally fish-like form‚ masking their true mammalian ancestry (Coffey‚ 1977). The evolution of
