Explain how plate tectonics can help our understanding of the distribution of either earthquakes or volcanic eruptions. Plate tectonics can help us understand the distribution of earthquakes and volcanoes very easily‚ it is recorded that main earthquake and volcanic zones are clustered along plate boundaries and more powerful ones are near destructive and conservative plate boundaries. Over time we have learnt that earthquakes that occur on a constructive plate boundary cause little hazard to

The play “Our Town” explores the lives of people (primarily two families) living in a small and quiet American town in the 1900’s. In the first act entitled “Daily life”‚ the narrator did a good job of guiding the audience’s imagination to set up the ideas of a town in the early 1900’s. The lighting and sound cues made that very successful. The lighting was on cue and was very good at setting the scenes (i.e. brighter for morning sunrise). Realistic sets and props were minimal but‚ the performers

“Children are our greatest treasure. They are our future.” -Nelson Mandela. Children and young adults’ minds are like sponges. Anything they hear or see will be remembered in some way or another. But‚ just like a sponge‚ there is only so much room to consume information before it runs out of space.

It includes all of the biotic factors‚ or living things‚ with which we interact. It also includes the abiotic factors‚ or nonliving things‚ with which we interact. Our environment includes the continents

Even mystics like Osho and Krishnamurthy have said that through Education alone‚ social transformation is possible and both also stressed the need for education to fulfill its real purpose- help the child find his vocation in life.

and treatment. We begin with a brief description of the underlying causes of cancer. Then we address preventive treatment‚ disease-time treatment‚ and diagnosis in the context of some of the most recent advances in nanotechnology. Nanoparticle science is also briefly addressed as the foundation upon which most nanotechnology cancer therapy is based. It is demonstrated how nanotechnology can help solve one of the most challenging and longstanding problems in medicine‚ which is how to eliminate cancer

The lessons we learn affecting our future By: Leo Ye What is a lesson? A lesson means an experience‚ especially an unpleasant one that somebody can learn from‚ so it does not happen again in the future. And everyone probably had a lesson of some sort before. For me‚ I have had many lessons throughout my life already‚ from small things‚ like you should always bring an umbrella with you to school‚ never run with your wallet in your pocket‚ to something big like studying hard before a test. And these

The quality of a country s’ governance is a critical factor for its development process. It is thus surprising how very small attention is given to one of the most fundamental way that public revenue are raised. Developing countries are typically unable to generate sufficient amount of revenue from taxation because these countries face a number of institutional

ESSAY HOW ELECTROSTATICS INFLUENCE OUR LIVES? INTRODUCTION We all are familiar with the term electricity which comes from batteries and which is used to light bulbs‚ buzzers‚ and other electrical devices.

This is basic knowledge but right now we are going into detail about electricity and static electricity. ELECTROSTATICS Many of us have this wrong concept in our mind
