The men were in the ocean for four straight days without food or water and because of that the men began drinking the seawater‚ which caused hypernatremia an excess of salt in the body.

by the fact that‚ with 0mL of fresh water‚ the density was 1.108 g/mL For every milliliter of fresh‚ pure water added‚ the density decreases by 0.015 grams per milliliter. I believe the density responded this way due to the fact that on average‚ seawater has a density of 1.025 g/mL. In this experiment‚ I added large amounts of freshwater (50mL total). Freshwater has almost no salt content‚ so its density is 1.000 g/mL. With each addition of freshwater‚ the density had to have gone down since a growing

Chapter 1 THE PROBLEM AND ITS BACKGROUND Introduction The conversion of solid waste (waste glass) and fibers (bamboo fibers) into construction materials and its capability to fight against chemical weathering will be discussed in this study. Now a day‚ it is an exciting and innovative technology in the field of engineering. There are many studies had been formulated by researchers on how to minimize or be free in concrete deterioration in an economical way and some are using high-cost materials

For over 400million years sharks have been adapting themselves perfectly for life in the ocean. Their varied habitats‚ diets and physiology has meant that for many of them‚ these adaptions have been slightly different. The key adaptions are those that enable the shark to swim‚ breath‚ feed and reproduce. Large squalene filled livers negates the need for a shark to have a swim bladder. The liver‚ up to 25% of the overall body weight‚ counteracts the weight of the dermal denticles‚ teeth and

Global warming is also having a corrupt influence on the salmon offspring’s. Salmons favour temperatures below 7°C‚ as the seawater is begging to get warmer fishes are slowly going northward. Thus‚ this impacts Canada’s salmon productions and entirely the West Coast fisheries. For some time there has been a quarrel between Canada and the United States of who gets what‚ and in

It is located in the second group called the alkaline earth metals. Magnesium is found in seawater‚ salty layers and in many rock minerals. IT could be used as metal.

The level of carbon dioxide‚ (CO₂) in the atmosphere increases‚ ocean acidification occurs as the oceans absorb some of that CO2‚ which increases the acidity of seawater. Since the Industrial Revolution began in the early 1700s‚ the acidity of the oceans has increased about 25 percent‚ according to the EPA (Environment Protection Agency

But not only that they can affect land animals and sea animals. For example‚ sea animals can be blown out of the ocean and onto the land after the strong winds hits them. The storm surges can cause saltwater intrusion which means that water from seawater is moved to bodies of freshwater and brackish wetland areas. Hurricanes can also affect people. They can damage houses and make them not have any place to stay. The winds can also take down trees and the damages the houses. They can also cause

water the quicker they adapt to their new habitat. There are numerous ways that an aquatic animal can adapt to their habitat. The term aquatic can in theory be applied to animals that live in either freshwater (freshwater animals) or saltwater (seawater animals). However‚ the adjective marine is most commonly used for animals that live in saltwater‚ i.e. in oceans‚ seas‚ etc. Invasive aquatic animals require a water habitat‚ but do not necessarily have to live entirely in water.[3] Aquatic animals

Marco Evaristti used 3‚000 liters of paint diluted with seawater to spray a small iceberg floating in the water for this project. This example of site-specific art is land art. The artist used the white glacier background and surroundings to draw the attention clearly to the iceberg painted red. Another example
