Earth’s Magnetic Field Introduction Earth’s magnetic field is one of the world’s most complicated features. It started to be observed in 1845 by a scientist named Carl Friedman Gauss (Sarfati). The magnetic field is generated inside of the earth’s core and there are many scientists who still debate over how it was first created. There are also many arguments about the many changes that the field has gone through in it’s existence. These arguments are mostly either for a young-earth model or an old

Direct and indirect somatic embryogenesis Introduction to somatic embryogenesis Biotechnology is considered as one of the most important dynamic tools in the development of sustainable agriculture. Somatic embryogenesis is defined as the development of structures that follow histodifferentiation patterns resembling the events observed in zygotic embryogenesis. This in vitro morphogenetic pattern is a multi-step regeneration process starting with the induction of pro-embryogenic masses‚ followed

1. Summarize advances over time in determining the age of the Earth‚ including the importance of the discovery or radioactivity. Herodotus counted layers of earth near the Nile River in 450 B.C.E. The Bible was used in the Middle Ages to compute the age of the Earth. The 18th and 19th centuries brought a more scientific look into determining the age of the Earth by studying the salinities of the oceans‚ the rates of sedimentation‚ and models of cooling of different materials in order to calculate

begins to increase with altitude‚ and this trend continues in the thermosphere. Because the atmosphere in the thermosphere is so thin‚ a thermometer cannot be used to measure the temperature accurately and special instruments are needed. The Earth interior is divided into 4 layers. The properties of the Earth’s interior have been inferred primarily from earthquake waves. Distinct characteristics are found within each layer such as density‚ temperature‚ and pressure. OBJECTIVE: In this

The Platypus was first described in 1799 in Shaw’s naturalist’s Miscellany along with the koala‚ Kangaroo‚ wombat and emu. The most curious was the platypus. Since its first discovery there has been much debate as to whether it is a mammal and how it should be classified. The platypus is a primitive mammal that has many features that separate it from other mammals-it lays eggs‚ there is an absence of true teeth and an absence of mammary glands‚ although it has special glands that secrete milk. It

3 The Relation of Physics to Other Sciences 3-1 Introduction Physics is the most fundamental and all-inclusive of the sciences‚ and has had a profound effect on all scientific development. In fact‚ physics is the presentday equivalent of what used to be called natural philosophy‚ from which most of our modern sciences arose. Students of many fields find themselves studying physics because of the basic role it plays in all phenomena. In this chapter we shall try to explain what the fundamental
