If the planet earth continues on the path that it is headed for‚ it is predicted that between 2020 and 2029 that we will reach our maximum carrying capability for humans. In 1960 the human population was roughly 3 billion‚ since then it has more then doubled to 6.8 billion and is still rapidly growing. Humans add 1.5 million people to this earth every week. There are 4 main causes for the overpopulation of earth; decline in death rate‚ increase in birth rate‚ migration and lack of education.

of the Moon’s origin? The currently accepted hypothesis for the Moon’s origin--which is supported by chemical analysis of Moon rocks--is that it began as part of Earth but was blown off when the early Earth was struck by a Mars-sized early planet (retroactively named Theia). Huge amounts of debris were ejected into orbit around the Earth‚ where most of it coalesced into the Moon. The other moons in the solar system have different origins. The small ones are mostly captured asteroids‚ I think‚ while

The crust is primarily made of granite and basalt while the mantle beneath is made of peridotite. More about all that below. How We Know the Earth Has a Crust Just a century ago‚ we didn’t know the Earth has a crust. Until the 1900s all we knew was that our planet wobbles in relation to the sky as if it had a large‚ dense core. Astronomical observations

the organism. Q: Based on the conditions of early Earth‚ what conclusion can you draw about the amount of anaerobic respiration that was occurring at Earth’s beginning? Explain your answer. A: The atmosphere of early Earth was made up with almost of different nitrogen gases‚ water vapor and carbon dioxide. There wasn’t any pure oxygen or I should say there wasn’t any breathable oxygen in the air in those days. The first form on earth had to develop in the absence of oxygen using the anaerobic
