Analysis Questions: Cycles of Matter 1. Explain the role of decomposing bacteria in the carbon and nitrogen cycles. In the carbon cycle‚ decomposing bacteria release carbon from the decaying bodies or waste into the atmosphere. Without them‚ it won’t be able for any organism to access the carbon stored in dead bodies. In the nitrogen cycle‚ decomposing bacteria breaks down animal waste‚ which creates ammonia and nitrate products rich in nitrogen. Although no animals or plants cannot directly

explosion; every particle started rushing apart from every other particle in an early super-dense phase. This explosion sent energy and matter flying all over the place. However‚ there is an argument about whether time and space existed before the big bang‚ or did the big bang create time and space. As the universe expanded‚ according to scientific understanding‚ matter collected into clouds that began to condense and rotate‚ forming the forerunners of galaxies. Within galaxies‚ including our own Milky

Changing Leadership Styles: Flexibility Matters Introduction The articles for this week represented views of leadership theories that are based on behaviors that reveal the underpinnings of a shift in leadership styles. These studies presented empirical evidence of some intricacies of work relationships that do not follow a prescriptive outline that always leans toward favorable outcomes. Problem solving and adaptive leadership are key components to the decision making process‚ according to

Reece and Walker state‚ "Motivation is a key factor in successful learning". They later suggest‚ "Use material familiar to the students" (Reece and Walker‚ 1997‚ pg96 & pg98). In the exercises I devised for the students I have tried to include subject matter familiar to the students. One exercise involved the sorting of a mobile phone spreadsheet‚ another the sorting of a

environment. Colour As the name suggests‚ Brown Earth soils are brown in colour. Soil colour is determined by soil forming processes. Humification is responsible for the dark colour of the Brown Earth soils. Humification occurs when the organic matter on the surface of the soil is broken down and decomposed to form a substance called humus. The leaves of deciduous trees fall and decay in Autumn forming a layer of dark humus. This humus is washed into the soil by rainfall. The presence of this layer

Bang called cosmic microwave background (CMB). The cosmic microwave background is hotter in spots where there are more galaxies in a cluster. Dark energy is also‚ what keeps space flat. Not until to long ago‚ there was an inconsistency between the matter in space‚ the energy in the universe‚ and the flatness of space. Scientist studied the cosmic microwave background and a large-scale structure‚ and they were able to conclude that the energy that keeps space flat is dark energy. Scientists are still
