around the lung or brain. Endometrial implants‚ while they can cause problems‚ are benign (Stoppler‚ 2011). In endometriosis‚ displaced endometrial tissue continues to act as it normally would: It thickens‚ breaks down and bleeds with each menstrual cycle. And because this displaced tissue has no way to exit your body‚ it becomes trapped. Surrounding tissue can become irritated‚ eventually developing scar tissue and adhesions‚ which is the abnormal tissue that binds organs together (Staff‚ 2010).

ESSAY PRACTICE Cycles in Biology A cycle can be defined by a series of repeated steps that produce an end product which is the same as the start product. There are many cycles in biology including cycles that occur inside organisms such as the cardiac cycle‚ calvin cycle and the krebs cycle. There are also biological cycles that occur around us in the outside world such as the carbon cycle and the nitrogen cycle. I have decided to focus my essay on the biological cycles that occur inside

Water is a chemical compound with the chemical formula H 2O. A water molecule contains one oxygen and two hydrogen atoms that are connected by covalent bonds. Water is a liquid at standard ambient temperature and pressure‚ but it often co-exists on Earth with its solid state‚ ice‚ and gaseous state‚ steam (water vapor). Water covers 71% of the Earth’s surface‚ and is vital for all known forms of life.[2] On Earth‚ 96.5% of the planet’s water is found in seas and oceans‚ 1.7% in groundwater‚
