in Hong Kong The ozone layer present in the stratosphere of the Earth is utmost important to us as it protects us from the exposure of ultraviolet rays which leads to several harmful effects. Without the ozone layer‚ human will be more prone to skin cancer and eye cataracts. Ultraviolet rays can also cause harm to marine life by reducing the amount of planktons and consequently depreciates the amount of fishes in the ocean. Besides that‚ the depletion of the ozone layer disrupts the production of

streams down every window‚ Layers of Fear ticks the first box in the list of horror clichés straight from the off. That’s not to say this psychedelic first-person horror doesn’t offer anything unique. Starting out in a seemingly empty 19th-century mansion certainly sets an uncomfortable tone‚ and aided by the rambling narrative of an artist who has completely lost his mind - Layers of Fear consistently unsettles you. While it’s forgivable to consider the concept of Layers of Fear as unoriginal‚ it

cancer‚ etc. In the year 1985‚ NASA detected the thinning out of the ozone layer leading to the formation of ‘ozone hole’ in Antarctica. Since then the scientists have been regularly monitoring the thickness of the ozone layer. They have found that the thickness of the ozone layer has been decreasing day by day at the alarming rate as a result of the environmental pollution. The main culprits of the serious depletion of ozone layer are found to be the manmade chlorofluorocarbons (CFC’s). These CFC (also

The upper layer of the atmosphere surrounded by ozone (15 to 30 Kms) is known as ozonosphere. Ozone layer is a protective stratospheric layer‚ also known as ozone umbrella. Ozone concentration differs by about 10 ppm in stratosphere compared to 0.05 ppm in troposphere. It acts as a protective shield for the man‚ animals and plants by filtering out the lethal ultraviolet rays from reaching the earth’s surface. If the ozone layer is not there‚ the harmful ultraviolet rays will reach to the

“Describe a theoretical approach whose influence on our understanding of perception has been particularly important‚ and explain your choice.” Recognition-by-components (RBC) theory (Biederman‚ 1987) has greatly influenced our understanding object perception and‚ more specifically‚ recognition. Recognition has been defined by Goldstein (2010) as how humans can categorise objects to give them meaning. RBC suggests that our recognition of objects is dependent on dividing the stimulus into a number

It is actually believed that a handful of soil may consist of more living organisms than there are on this Earth. GENERAL DESCRIPTION Soil is a natural body comprised of solids (minerals and organic matter)‚ liquid‚ and gases that occurs on the land surface. (Natural Resources Conservation Service‚ 2013)

The ozone layer diminishes more each year. As the area of polar ozone depletion (commonly called the ozone hole) gets larger‚ additional ultraviolet rays are allowed to pass through. These rays cause cancer‚ cataracts‚ and lowered immunity to diseases.1 What causes the depletion of the ozone layer? In 1970‚ Crutzen first showed that nitrogen oxides produced by decaying nitrous oxide from soil-borne microbes react catalytically with ozone hastening its depletion. His findings started
