1. If the earth rotates in the opposite direction to that of today‚ with the aid of diagrams‚ describe the likely characteristics of the global atmospheric circulations. The sun heats the atmosphere more at the equator than it does at the poles. There would initially be a surplus of heat at the equator and a deficit at the poles which would be evenly distributed through oceans and the atmospheric circulation such as in Figure 1. This is due to the density differences between air masses because of

Insight paper: “The Story of Earth” The Earth is said to be “the only home to life in the universe” but five billion years ago there was no signal of the planet that we can call it home. Instead there was only a new star and a cloud of dust in our solar system. Over billions of years‚ a series of violent changes led to the formation of our world and‚ eventually‚ the creation of life. As stated in the movie 4500 million years ago the earth looks like hell than home. Also‚ we can definitely see it

In the immensity of the universe‚ Earth is an insignificant star but in this star‚ you can find mankind. It wasn’t doubted that humans are a kind of very strong living beings on the earth. Which thing can make humans achieve this successful circumstance? I think that their emotions and persistence support them to be done which is their goals. Just like me‚ when I’m a child‚ I don’t know these details because I like to do some interesting things I think but I never pay attention to end what is good

GG310 OCEANOGRAPHY Evaluate the geological evidence for so-called ‘Snowball Earth’ glacial episodes in the Precambrian and the hypothesis that these episodes were critical in the evolution of complex life. Introduction The hypothesis of Snowball Earth explores the possibility of the Earth’s surfaces having been frozen over during the Cryogenian period. The initial notion was thought to be from the glacial deposits which occurred around the world parallel to the same time frame. This led scientist

from its moment of inception at the Big Bang to the formation of the Earth? The earth started off really hot and it was all compressed together. When the universe began to cool down and get bigger the elements were formed. Than hydrogen and helium formed our stars and galaxies than when the milky-way galaxy took place that is when earth and the rest of our solar system was formed. According to researchers the earth and other planets all formed at the same time. 2. What is the evolution

are so secure‚ safe and well-nourished within Mother Earth’s womb. However‚ we never saw the real extent of how precious this planet is to us and we went out the world as a successful species but completely a failure as sons and daughters of Mother Earth. Instead of protecting and nurturing the environment‚ we did just the opposite. We built factories that release substances that destroy the environment and kill many animals‚ we brilliantly invented new materials but took so long to realize that they

Hercules was the strongest mortal on Earth. He was a demigod who was highly worshipped‚ as the protector of mankind‚ by the Greeks. Unfortunately‚ he had strength but lacked wisdom and intelligence. He spent most of his life protecting the Greeks and proving himself to the people that worshipped him. Hercules’ father was the almighty Zeus and his mother was a mortal named Alcmene. Many people liked Hercules‚ but Hera was not one of those people. She hated him because Zeus‚ Hercules’ father‚ was unfaithful

Earth is the only planet in our solar system that sustains life‚ and therefore one of the most intriguing planets because of its capabilities. Each of the seven other planets that orbit the same sun as Earth is interesting in its own way. Some planets share similar characteristics to those found on Earth‚ while other planets are completely different. An analysis of these terrestrial bodies‚ using comparative planetology‚ will allow us examine these qualities. However‚ before beginning such a process

Explain the relativity of “young” and “old” There are many similarities as well as differences between the elderly and young adults. The most common factor in both of these groups it seems is the overwhelming ability for being narrow-minded Young adults as well as the elderly both think they know everything If you listen to the elderly many do become wise but many others seem to get stuck in their past On the other hand young adults readily accept changes
