The First Continental Congress The American dream is built upon a foundation of struggles and gains‚ along with more struggles. A look back to early American History provides one with a timeline that seems endless and full of surprises. The First Continental Congress serves as one of those timeline markers and is a great example of the American way. Being one of the first meetings ever between the colonists‚ The First Continental Congress laid one of the first bricks into the foundation of America

Marine Biodiversity is one of the assets of the Philippines‚ and because of this‚ the country bear the title of the “Centre of Marine biodiversity”. But as timed passed by‚ little by little‚ this asset is being disturbed because of human deeds‚ and if the authorities didn’t do something‚ the once known asset may turn into a burden for us. This study will focus on the effectiveness of the laws being implemented by the government and to test whether the laws are being implemented strictly or not.

who did much of the early work on continental drift? In the early 20th century‚ German scientist Alfred Wegener published a book explaining his theory that the continental landmasses‚ far from being immovable‚ were drifting across the Earth. What evidence did this scientist have to support his idea of continental drift? Wegener noticed that the continents seemed to fit together‚ not at the continuously changing shoreline‚ but at the edge to their continental shelves. He derived this hypothesis

University May 15‚ 2012 Alfred Wegener first proposed the theory of “continental drift” in 1915 after finding evidence on continents that had drifted apart‚ matched very closely when the continents were brought together. Wegener also stated that the fossils found in a particular place often indicated of a possibility that the climate from the region is totally different from today. All of his facts supported the theory of continental drift. Wegener first suggested that the continents fit together

of rocky shore ecosystem were examined‚ the rock pool area‚ and the boulder area. We first examined areas within the rock pool area. The rock pool area has several specific features which set it apart from other rocky shore ecosystems‚ including its geological makeup and position. It is made up of a flat platform of rock pockmarked with numerous rock pools; indents in the rocks which are filled with water and contain numerous forms of marine life. These pools can vary in size‚ from small cracks in

The aim of this investigation is to see whether I can find a definite relationship between the light intensity onto the leaf’s surface and the surface area of the leaf. Hypothesis I think the light intensity could affect the surface area in the following way: ·A higher light intensity could make the surface area of the leaf larger. The reason I think a higher light intensity could make the surface area larger is the fact that there would be a larger amount of chlorophyll‚ containing chloroplasts

look like? Butterfly cod are characterised by their long‚ spiny fins. The dorsal‚ anal and pelvic fins are all venomous. These brightly-coloured fish grow up to 30 centimetres long. Where are they found? Butterfly cod are predominantly found in tropical and subtropical waters. Smaller animals may be seen in temperate waters due to larvae getting caught in currents‚ but usually don’t survive the cooler winter months. Behaviour: Butterfly cod are nocturnal animals‚ becoming active when the sun sets

Marine Pollution Marine Pollution is a major problem that is among issues of discussions around the world today. There is an increasing awareness made‚ especially across the Asia and pacific region these days. This problem is a major concern because the marine environment is a dumping ground of unwanted waste materials. This has initiated dialogue to mobilize careful considerations in strategies of overcoming this problem. This essay will argue that marine pollution should be addressed immediately
