I believe it has stemmed from the…

This man and two other people made very substantial sacrifices; he risked his life to learn as much about Antarctica as he could and sacrificed the most out of all of…

Abiotic and biotic stress conditions before and during the winter season can lead to turf death the following spring. This is particularly true of perennial ryegrass, tall fescue and annual bluegrass, which is very susceptible to winter stresses common to Iowa. Winterkill can be a result of poor freeze acclimation and direct low temperature kill, crown hydration, hypoxia (lack of oxygen), desiccation, or diseases like snow mold. These environmental effects vary depending on location making it…

Some people think that it is bad for the dogs. But the dogs are breed for these conditions and they are in fit for it too. The dogs might look like they are too skinny and will freeze but that is not true the dogs have so much fur that it keeps the cold out and they are skinny because they are in fit. These details prove that the dogs are so intelligent and smart. First, they were trained to pull sleds. When the dogs were little the dog were trained when they were puppies.…

affects a Tenebrio molitor’s activity level. Both experiments conducted consisted of two separate treatment trials; one in a warm environment (25 C) and one in a relatively cold environment (14 C). Results obtained from these experiments both showed a higher level of T. molitor activity in warmer environments as opposed to the cold environment where less activity occurred. In this case, the activity level of a T. molitor was measured by distance travelled (cm) over one minute. Prior to…
