    In my opinion the nation is a melting pot. We are a melting pot because despite differences you cannot per say pick up one chunk of something without getting a whole lot of something else. No matter what we are all connected. If the nation were a salad you could pick up something without the involvement of another issue or people. Despite few issues that people are still fighting for equality‚ I would say over all we as a nation are fighting for this equality as a whole. For example gay marriage

    what is called a melting pot; however‚ I would argue that America should no longer be called a melting pot. The term melting pot suggests that immigrants should assimilate into American culture. Instead‚ America should be looked upon as a salad bowl society or a mosaic work of art allowing our newcomers to bring their racial and ethnic differences to the country. This allows our newcomers to “retain their own national characteristics while integrating into a new society” (“Melting Pot America”).

    a Homeostatic Mechanism using the Comparitive Melting-Point Method for two Crab Species. Abstract Two crab species‚ Plagusia and Cyclograpsus‚ were collected from a local estuary in the littoral and deep water zone for osmoregulation studies. To examine differences in osmoregulatory mechanisms among the species‚ haemolymph of the specimens was extracted once they were acclimated to varying concentrations of seawater. Using the comparative melting-point‚ capillary tubes were filled with small

    Glaciers are present year-round‚ but vary in their rate of melting. For a pack of ice to qualify as a glacier‚ it exist continually rather than just seasonally. For reasons that are not completely clear‚ the planet has experienced several major Ice Ages in its history‚ when glaciers extended as far south as New York‚ USA and Paris‚ France. So many glaciers piled up that the sea level was lowered by 100 m (328 ft)‚ opening up large areas of land such as the North Sea‚ the Bering strait‚ and connecting
