Arctic Circle

see how many circles they can make out of each container. I observed three students, whose names were Haigen, Emma, and Cohen. The teacher goes over to their table and sits down beside them. Haigen says, “Ms. Otts, I am going to have a lot more than Emma.” Emma replied, “No way, Haigen.” Cohen seemed…

At this time, Chloe writing development would be centered in the Transitional Stage. Chloe really took this writing assignment and ran with it. You can see how enthusiastic she was about writing this piece because of all of the details she provided about her dog, however, she does not organize the details or the paragraph as a whole, which makes the paragraph seem a bit chaotic. Chloe uses capitation and punctuation correctly throughout the paragraph. In addition, Chloe vocabulary is increasing…

Exceptional monitoring efforts have established a shift from Arctic to Subarctic climate regime within the last decade (Grebmeier et al. 2006). Building on the existing 30-year record of direct observations on the water column and benthic macrofauna, I will extend this record back to the last glacial maximum using…

Ender’s Game has several gripping characters that largely contribute to the story. The three Wiggin siblings are like the three bears from Goldilocks and The Three Bears. Peter is like the father bear; his personality is too hard, just like the father bear’s bed. Valentine is like the mother bear; her personality is too soft, just like the mother bear’s bed. Then there was Ender. He is like the baby bear; having everything be just right. However, you couldn’t have a respectable story without any…

creates undersea artic greenhouses” by Thomas Sumner, there is information yet to be discovered before knowing if enough nutrients such as nitrogen and iron are creating these blooms. If more blooms are appearing in the Arctic Ocean, they may already be dramatically reshaping the Arctic ecosystem. With a combination of research and results, both articles demonstrate a shocking summary of how fast our planet has been warming up. For popular articles, journalists or professional authors write for…

slowly, but they do this to keep a stable body temperature. Polar bears release extra body heat through their muzzle, ears, and footpads. These adaptations are examples of homeostasis. The only place in the world that Polar bears live is in the Arctic. Their habitats are divided into 19 subpopulations. Polar bears live along the edges of pack ice because water currents and wind work together…

for his chance to catch a walrus or any other food they can find. He tries to jump out of the way of the newly found hole in the ice, but slips. He swerves with all his might to get out of the way of the hole, and barely made it. Now, the ice in the Arctic is melting very fast, due to all the pollution we are causing, and the Inuit are living there, and have to watch as their home begins to melt. In other places, the Iroquois and the Sioux also have to watch the major changes that are being made…

picked was the Arctic Tundra. The animal from Arctic Tundra I picked is the polar bear. Female polar bears would rather build their den in old snow,( like from a few years ago.) The polar bear is found in Canada , the U.S (Alaska), Greenland, Russia Norway (the Svalbard archipelago), and Arctic Tundra. The Arctic Tundra climate/weather averages to -30°F. In January it is the coldest weather in Arctic Tundra. It’s about -40°F, in January it has reached -93°F before. Most of the year Arctic…

In the North Pole, at least one polar bear is tightly grasping onto a single slab of ice that barely supports its body weight of over two-thousand pounds. Due to increasing sea levels, the ice that the polar bear is lying on will evaporate in less than two months. Paddling to find land will lack success as miles of shark-infested waters and several other threats lie between it and a temporary Shangri-la. Its chances of survival are slim, but to lower this probability even further, the polar bear…
