Myop was, before, a little ray of sunshine with the world in her hands and not a care in it, but her new adventure gave…

There are over 2800 species of termites, with about 185 considered to be pests to humans (Verma et al. 2009). Termites play a key ecological role in nutrient cycling in the environment (Eggleton 2000). Even though the majority of termites are helpful to the environment and do not disturb humans, today’s society has portrayed the word termite in a negative way due to their destructive impact on homes, businesses, and agriculture across the world (Constantino 2002). Specifically, termites are…

To test our theory that lettuce plants absorb nutrients more efficiently with nutrient circulation than without circulation, we designed an experiment using a water pump for the treatment group. To set up the experiment we used 2- plastic six-quart storage containers for the control and treatment groups. The containers each had tight fitting lids that contained 4 holes to place yogurt containers in each, with a total of 8 yogurt cups between both groups. Next, two small holes were drilled into…

consumers. These five levels all interact with each other to ensure bio-viability. The first trophic level contains the primary producers. They are called the primary producers because they produce their own food and energy. Primary producers include plants and algae, organisms that produce their own food and energy through photosynthesis. They are at the base of the food chain. The second trophic level contains the primary consumers. They are called primary consumers because they are the…

Post-apocalyptic Hawaii The population of Hawaii is dying. People are dying from left to right from the disease that the kelp contracted. In quadrant L, we are dying from starvation. The scientist have to figure out on how to stop the disease from spreading and to find a new food resource before we all die from starvation. Scientist hasn’t found anything to explain the contagious disease from the kelp and how to stop it from spreading to others. We will not be able to live our long lives. We…

Field crops will are planted every three months or every…

Could you possibly imagine the world without any rhinos? In 1970 the population of Black Rhino was 70,000, and now more than half of the rhino population has decreased. By 1995 the Black Rhino population was 2,410. Similarly, other animal populations around the world are decreasing at a surprising rate. If we don't protect them, then these animals will be gone forever. People should help protect endangered species for many obvious reasons, such as it would help with ecosystems, earth would be…
