The Action of Tiger Conservation As the population of tiger in the world dwindles nowadays‚ everyone has the responsibility for the conservation of tiger especially tiger range countries. Over the past 100 years‚ tiger numbers have declined by 95 percent which leave only 3‚200 and three sub-species have become extinct – with a fourth not seen in the wild for over 25 years (World Wild Fund for Nature [WWF] International‚ 2008). Since it is estimated that wild tiger number halved to 3‚200‚ we

Did the Conservation Movement of the Early Twentieth Century Successfully Preserve the American Environment? T.H. Watkins argues that the movement did preserve the environment because of Gifford Pinchot’s role with the forest. Watkins states‚ “President Roosevelt would establish the first federal wildlife refuge” (158)‚ and the forest will be handed to Pinchot’s care. He became the first the nation’s first chief forester and divided land with rangers in charge of each land to make sure laws were followed

Research Investigation Safety features in cars Air Bags Air bags are safety features installed in cars so that upon collision the driver limits the damage that is inflicted on him/her. There are several different types of air bags. These include‚ Supplementary Restraint System (SRS)‚ an Air Cushion Restraint System (ACRS) and the Supplemental Inflatable Restraint (SIR). Air bags are commonly known for their rapid inflation upon a collision. They can inflate and deflate within 0.05 seconds

Wildlife conservation encompasses all human activities and efforts directed to preserve wild animals from extinction. It involves both protection and scientific management of wild species and their environment. Some species have become extinct due to natural causes‚ but the greatest danger to wildlife results from the activities of man. So we ourselves have created the need for conservation of wildlife. It can be viewed from several angles such as‚ beauty‚‚ economic value‚ scientific values for

Meaning Of Conservation Conservation is the act of using and protecting resources properly. Catching animals‚ throwing garbage‚ and using and harnessing the different resources should all adhere to the proper way of conservation. 3.

Importance for Wildlife Conservation * Maintains ecological balance & the organisms have their unique positions in food chains‚ food webs which keep ecological balance. * Wild life contributes to the maintenance of material cycles such as carbon and nitrogen cycles. * For improvement and progress in agriculture‚ animal husbandry and fisheries the genes from wild life preserved as gene bank are utilised in breeding programmes. * Wild life provides a number of useful products like food‚ medicine

QUESTION( Conservation of Energy) 1. Missy Diwater‚ the former platform diver for the Ringling Brother’s Circus had a kinetic energy of 15 000 J just prior to hitting the bucket of water. If Missy’s mass is 50 kg‚ then what is her speed? Solution: According to energy conservation‚ the kinetic energy at the bottom of the dive (15‚000J) is equal to her gravitational potential energy before the dive. We can use this fact to find her dive height: PE = mgh h = PE/mg = 15‚000J / (50kg)(9.81m/s²)
