issue that has potential to destroy the natural beauty of this lake is the recent decision to build a nuclear facility off shore from Baikal. Only about 10% of the uranium made at the plant would be sold the remaining 90% left in storage. Uranium tailings contain tones of toxic material that’s very hazardous to the environment. One reason why people are so skeptical about building a nuclear plant close to the lake is that it is located on very seismic ground and earthquakes are prone to happen.

Are the Biotic and abiotic factors in this manmade pond similar? Aim The purpose of the investigation is to observe the biological factors at the two man-made pond ecosystems at Yili Park‚ s well as observe the similarities and subsequent differences between the two. This will be done using my powers of observation and testing numerous factors‚ Later the water will be observed under a microscope slide. Hypothesis The larger pond will hold a wider array of biotic factors but similar

Alberta Tar Sands Sustainability Report Introduction Tar sands are a combination of clay‚ sand‚ water‚ and bitumen. As a type of unconventional petroleum deposit‚ tar sands are found in many places worldwide‚ the largest deposits are found in Alberta‚ Canada. The Alberta tar sand deposits contain more than 70.8% of the world ’s reserves of natural bitumen which representing 40% of the world’s combined extra-heavy crude oil and crude bitumen reserves. It is the only bitumen deposits that are economically

results Column 2: Examples of Tasks 1) a) A scientist‚ based on his observation of the pond‚ believes that if a pond is exposed to the waste of an industrial plant‚ then the growth of algae will be accelerated. 2) b) In her laboratory‚ a scientist pours a vial of waste water‚ collected from the industrial plant‚ and adds it to a dish containing pond water. A second dish (the control dish)‚ containing the same pond water‚ does not receive the waste water sample. 3) c) A scientist wonders if the waste

Resource 1. Observe. A scientist observes that a pond adjacent to an industrial plant has heavier algae growth than ponds farther away (G). I chose this as an example of observation because the sentence explains in detail how the scientist first gathered the idea to for conducting the experiment. 2. Ask a question. A scientist wonders if the waste water emitted from an industrial plant is accelerating the growth of algae in a pond(C). I believed this sentence to be where the scientist
