Deforestation is a serious problem today‚ and has been for a long time. It is one of the greatest threats to nature on Earth‚ if not the single greatest. It is one root cause of soil erosion‚ the root cause of global warming‚ and the greatest contributor to the endangerment and extinction of so many species throughout the world. To understand deforestation though‚ one must know exactly what it is first. Therefore‚ deforestation is defined by the Encyclopedia Britannica Online as "The cutting down

species is determined by the habitat in which it lives. In other words‚ the niche is the sum of the habitat requirements that allow a species to persist and produce offspring. For example‚ the behavior of the California Thrasher is consistent with the chaparral habitat it lives in—it breeds and feeds in the underbrush and escapes from its predators by shuffling from underbrush to underbrush. This perspective of niche allows for the existence of ecological

order to maintain a fragile environment dynamic sustainability needs to be established. An example of a fragile environment is the Serengeti National Park and Jau National Park. The Serengeti National Park is situated in the Tropical Grassland biome. This means that it has temperatures are high throughout the year averaging at around 28OC. There are wet and dry seasons due to the movement of the ITCZ (Inter Tropical Conversion Zone). In the Serengeti there are long periods of drought during

tongue is 18 inches long? As you can see giraffes are going to be a bundle of fun to learn about. Giraffes live on grasslands in Africa with trees surrounding them. Other animals such as lions‚ zebra’s rhinos‚ and elephants live in the same biome. They live together in herds and it is common for a giraffe to leave one herd and go to another. These mammals have a very unique pattern. No two giraffes are the same in any way. Their pattern is as distinctive as your fingerprint and stays with the

As shown by the title‚ our earth’s biodiversity is at crisis. But some may wonder‚ what is biodiversity? Wikipedia tells us that biodiversity is the variation of life forms within a given ecosystem‚ biome‚ or on the entire Earth. Interesting enough‚ my science teacher was starting on the Biodiversity chapter when I spotted this poster. We learnt about the classification of species using their common characteristics‚ but I realize that there are always exceptions. For instance‚ we know that mammals
