Carnivorous Plants In a world where plants are at the bottom of the food-chain‚ some individual plant species have evolved ways to reverse the order we expect to find in nature. These insectivorous plants‚ as they are sometimes called‚ are the predators ‚ rather than the passive prey. Adaptations such as odiferous lures and trapping mechanisms have made it possible for these photosynthesizers to capture‚ chemically break-down and digest insect prey (and in some cases even small animals.) There

EFFECTS OF SOIL EROSION IN THE PHILIPPINES Soil erosion is happening everywhere in this world. Especially near the water area and maybe it is happening below where we stand. One my grandparents told me‚ that one time when they were young a typhoon with its devastating rain hit manila. Because they were near river‚ because of the heavy rain without warning the soil beneath their home collapse and their home was wash away in the river. And it said to be the cause of the collapse of the soil was the

characteristics of any one soil type you have studied. (2009 Q18‚ 80 marks) In this answer I will discuss the characteristics of the Brown Earth soil. Brown Earth soils are known as a zonal soil as they developed as a result of the Cool Temperate Oceanic climate and the natural‚ mixed‚ deciduous vegetation of this climatic region. This climatic region is located between 30o and 55o North of the Equator. Brown Earths are the most common soil type in Ireland. Brown Earth soils have a number of characteristics
