The environmental crisis is largely due to the fact that we use too much resources‚ reuse too little of them and produce too much waste. There are four factors that have contributed to this situation: human activites such as agriculture and industry‚ population explosion‚ technological advances and modern lifestyle. Human activities like agriculture and industry have been a great impact on the environment. Agriculture needs lots of land for growing crops and rearing of animals. Because of this‚

Photosynthesis Abstract: An experiment was carried out to determine how certain factors such as light intensity and availability of carbon dioxide‚ affected the rate of photosynthesis. The rate of photosynthesis was measure by the amount of oxygen produce (cm3/min). A valid conclusion was made and most of the results were in accordance with the prediction‚ although there were some anomalies present. The errors and limitations were evaluated and some improvements were suggested. Introduction: Photosynthesis

It is a natural system with varied inputs of precipitation and varied outputs of water‚ for example‚ inputs: rain‚ snow or ice‚ outputs: evaporation‚ transpiration‚ and evapotranspiration and river flow. When the inputs and the outputs balance out it is called the water balance. The summary of water balance: Precipitation= evaporation + transpiration + river flow + storage NOTE: water is stored in porous rocks‚ soils‚ peat and vegetation. During heavy rainfall or a monsoon the water or “precipitation”
