The Parthenon in Athens and the pantheon in Rome are well described in the essay followed by the similarities and the differences. The two temples have well shown contradictions. The Parthenon and the Pantheon temples reflect the usage of civilization for architecture that appears the aesthetic function that mirrors the power of ingenuity. Not to forget the major difference between the Roman and Greek empire that printed a different architecture style and history around the world.…

Climate change is one of the biggest problems facing humanity. It is “a long term change in the earth’s climate, especially a change due to an increase in atmospheric temperature” (http://www.dictionary.com/browse/climate-change) and is one of the greatest threats to our planet. (www.123helpeme.com). so, what causes climate change? Climate change is a consequence of the combustion of fossil fuels such as coal, oil and natural gas. As these fuels combust, Carbon Dioxide and other greenhouse…

is a global phenomenon with impacts spread across the world, however, less developed countries are more likely to have a severe impact than that of developed countries (The Global Climate Risk Index 2018). Especially those in the region near the equator, such as Central America, the Caribbean, South America, East Africa, West Africa and Southeast Asia are inherently susceptible to climate change (Randell & Gray, 2016). The reason why developing countries are more vulnerable is because of…

How satellites have been used to help society? A satellite is a space body which has been created by colliding of two or more space objects (for ex. meteorites). There are two types of satellites: natural satellites (like moon, an earth’s satellite) and man-made (artificial), satellites launched to the orbit by people. Natural satellites A natural satellite is space body that orbits another space body bigger than itself. Natural satellites are not man-made satellites. They come from space…

Task 1.b) (Picture on page 275) I have been working on this farm for five summers now. It is hot here, even though we are in the southern part of Africa, as long from the Equator in this direction. It is often around 35 degrees Celsius here, and no part of the fields has any shadows. We have minimal with drinks and food here, so sometimes people eat the tomatoes. The reason I work here is because my mother is sick. She does not get the medical support she needs, simply because we can’t pay for…

Nature is at once worthy of awe and fear. Each day, natural forces impact people around the globe, usually in a relatively harmless way. However, natural events can quickly become disasters in the right conditions, as is the case with tornadoes and hurricanes. In the middle of the United States, “Tornado Alley” stretches roughly from Texas to upper South Dakota. This coincides with the Great Plains—an area of flat, open land that practically bisects the continental United States. Here,…

Understanding culture is imperative for the United States Military to succeed in our mission around the world, especially in today’s War on Terror. Soldiers need to understand what culture is and how to win the hearts and minds of the local populous for many reasons, one reason is to guarantee that we are not creating an environment of distrust which could lead to more people opposing out force. According to "Merriam-Webster" (2017), “culture is defined as the integrated pattern of human…

Gondwana is an ancient supercontinent that existed around 500 million years ago. In fact, Gondwana broke up and eventually created the continents we know today. These continents are known as Africa, South America, Australia, Antarctica, the Arabian Peninsula, and the Indian subcontinent. Just because Gondwana eventually created the continents we know today, does not mean that these continents will stay the same forever. Eventually, there will be different arrangements in an extensive history…

Climate Science 1 Day In today’s time there is something called forcing factors which is the tilt of the Earth's axis which creates seasons but other factors that may impact climate systems are such volcanic aerosols which can cool climate and shorten growing seasons. Some instruments used to track climate patterns are thermometers, rain gauges, and stream gauges. Paleo proxies such as tree rings and cores from corals and ice caps also provide information on a resolution in terms of…

Forensic science, known as forensics, is the application of science to law by analyzing DNA for legal evidence. DNA profiling is the predominant application and forensic science, DNA profiling allows us to take more than one sample of an unknown DNA specimen and determine if it has the same genetic match. Moreover, DNA profiling is to help determine and solve crime scenes such as murders, assaults, and rapes. The technique used for analyzing DNA is restriction fragment length polymorphism…
