The Japanese government implies the annual hunts are used for pest control. They tell their fishermen that the dolphins are eating up all the fish in the ocean‚ therefore‚ giving a reason to catch them first (“The Cove”). What the fishermen do not understand or don’t want to understand is it is the humans who are causing the depletion of fish. What happens when all the dolphins are gone? It would completely damage and affect the ecosystem. Why can’t people physically help the dolphins? People who

An intensive property is a physical quantity whose value does not depend on the amount of the substance for which it is measured. For example‚ the temperature of a system in thermal equilibrium is the same as the temperature of any part of it. If the system is divided the temperature of each subsystem is identical. The same applies to the density of a homogeneous system: if the system is divided in half‚ the mass and the volume change in the identical ratio and the density remains unchanged. According

Properties of Water Lab # 1 Biology 111 January 23‚ 2011 INTRODUCTION With surface tension it is made possible for items such as paper clips to float on water‚ because a molecule within the mass of a liquid encounters gravity to all adjacent molecules in all directions. When you use surfactant substances this creates hydrogen bonds. Purpose of experiment 1 will be to show that once the surfactant substances hits the hydrogen bond pulls down paper clips. Things

A Troublesome Property: Master-Slave Relationships in Florida Master-Slave Relations in Florida talked about religion on the plantations. In places such as Duval County slave master Zephaniah Kingsley didn’t like the idea of his slaves being religious because he claimed that the slaves were harder to manage‚ disobeyed his orders‚ and stole more food. In other counties like Madison slaves were not permitted to attend religious gatherings‚ but some of the braver slaves would meet up in secret

physical and chemical properties. Physical properties are characteristics of a substance. Two types of physical properties are quantitative and qualitative. Quantitative is a property that has an amount or can be measured such as hardness‚ solubility‚ and viscosity. Qualitative is a physical description of matter such as color‚ clarity‚ and state. Chemical properties are characteristics of a substance which allows it to behave in a specific manner. A few types of chemical properties are combustibility

Environmental Destruction Environmental destruction is the destruction of the environment through depletion of natural resources and pollution. The planets natural ecosystems and regenerating bio-capacity are being severely degraded and as a result this compromises the ability of the planet to sustain life. Forests‚ fisheries‚ oceans‚ rangeland‚ freshwater systems (lakes‚ wetlands‚ rivers) and other natural ecosystems are all threatened whilst many are on the verge of collapse. Water‚ land and

Properties and changes are used to describe matter. A property is a trait of matter‚ when that sample of matter is in a fixed state. There are two different types of properties: physical properties and chemical properties. A change is something that alters the properties of a substance. There are two types of changes: chemical changes and physical changes. A physical property is a property that can be observed without changing the makeup (or composition) of a substance.
