If you visit Qinling Mountain and walk through the forests‚ you may see some golden figure swinging from trees to trees. They are golden snub-nosed monkeys‚ which I think are the most beautiful kind of primates in the world. Golden snub-nosed monkeys are famous for their golden hair and pale blue faces. Another obvious characteristic of this kind of monkeys is that there are no bones in their noses. With these features‚ you can easily recognize them. Golden snub-nosed monkeys are about 66-76cm

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 that

throughout North and South America‚ Europe‚ Asia‚ Africa‚ and Australia. They also live on many tropical islands in the Pacific‚ Atlantic‚ and Indian oceans. One of many of these lizards is the Flying Dragon Lizard that resides in the deciduous forest and the rain forest. The Flying Dragon Lizard is around 8 inches long (although it can reach sizes from 19-23 centimeters)‚ slim‚ and has two membrane-like wings on the sides of its body. The lizard itself is usually brown or grey while its wings are

whether the area being planted has or has not recently been forested. Tree planting is grounded in forest science‚ and if performed properly can result in the successful regeneration of a deforested area. Reforestation is the commercial logging industry’s answer to the large-scale destruction of old growth forests‚ but a planted forest rarely replicates the biodiversity and complexity of a natural forest.[citation needed] Because trees remove carbon dioxide from the air as they grow‚ tree planting

diversity‚ host range‚ and geographic distributions are unknown. To explore the putative hyperdiversity of tropical leaf endophytes‚ we compared endophyte communities along a broad latitudinal gradient from the Canadian arctic to the lowland tropical forest of central Panama. Here‚ we use molecular sequence data from 1403 endophyte strains to show that endophytes increase in incidence‚ diversity‚ and host breadth from arctic to tropical sites. Endophyte communities from higher latitudes are characterized

Ecology Ecology is the study of interactions between organisms and the living and non-living components of their environment. It involves collecting information about organisms and observing their life patterns as well. Ecology is a science that seeks to explain why patterns occur the way they do. Interdependence is a key component of biology‚ meaning that all the organism interact with one another in various ways. Its very crucial for organisms since they all depend on one another

Science Study Notes An electrically uncharged object is neutral. Conduction is not a method of charging an object. If electric charged stay in one spot‚ they are said to be static. In charging by induction‚ when a negatively charged rod is brought near a metal leaf electroscope the electrons in the electroscope move away from the rod. A statement that is not part of the Law of Electric Charges is that neutral objects are attracted to uncharged objects. The purpose of a GFCI is to protect people from

Depending on the varied scales of rainfall at different parts of the year and at different altitudes and places‚ both tropical and temperate vegetation occur in Meghalaya. Different parts of many plants growing in Meghalaya have been put to medicinal use. Brief History of Meghalaya There is not much information
