The use of nature is one of the more common themes discussed within multiple stories this term. The use of nature can be instrumental in conveying the symbolic meaning, but it also helps to establish the setting in several stories. Commonly, the author’s use of nature serves a dual purpose within the story, which aids in potentially forming a wide array of interpretations for readers. In the short story Chicxulub, the narrator compares the impact he felt when he received news of his daughter…
Dinosaurs ruled the earth for millions of years before the human species inhabited the planet, and thankfully for the human race, they became extinct. Ultimately, only a major catastrophe could completely dismantle an entire species, let alone a body of dinosaurs. Consequently, the debacle on the causes of dinosaur extinction have baffled the minds of paleontologists for centuries. Geologist and zoologist Stephen Jay Gould published “Sex, Drugs, Disasters, and the Extinction of Dinosaurs,” to…
INTRODUCTION The Permian-Triassic extinction is seen as one of the largest mass extinction in the history of life. According to the McGraw-Hill Dictionary (2003) it can be defined as a mass extinction event marking the division between the Permian Period and the Triassic Period as well as the border between the Palaeozoic and Mesozoic eras. It is estimated to have triggered the extinction of 90% or more of all ocean species, approximately 70% of land vertebrates, and significant extinctions of…
1. Explain why Earth and other planets were not solid when they formed during the beginning of the Precambrian, approximately 4,600 million years ago (MYA) The Precambrian period was also known as the Hadean and the reason why it was not solid yet was that the planets of the solar system were just starting to form and they were not even solid rocks yet they were just starting to form from dust particles. 2. What was this particular time period called? This particular period was called the…
curious just by the thought of what Kolbert meant by a sixth extinction. She claims that this extinction could be the most devastating yet due to humans, and gives different descriptions of species that have gone extinct either because of natural events or because of humans. The book covers the previous…
death, but immediately afterward, the story jumps eleven years later and becomes bogged down by intricate explanations of how Monica can adjust the asteroids trajectory. These jumps not only make it difficult with the reader to fully engage with the events taking place, it also robs the narrative tension built from the first one hundred pages of the story. Furthermore, the prologue leads the reader to believe that the apocalypse was preordained, but it turns out that scene was foreshadowing…
For this project, I read, “The End Of Dinosaurs, Chicxulub Crater and Mass Extinctions.” This book began talking about the five mass extinctions and what a mass extinction was. It stated that the best studied of all mass extinctions was the fifth mass extinction. This is because it was the closest to us in time, and it wiped out roughly 70% of all species. This lead to the books next topic, how this mass extinction occurred. In the beginning, most scientists were gradualists, meaning they…
Brontosaurus Othniel Charles Marsh discovered and named the Brontosaurus (Greek “thunder lizard”), a four-legged dinosaur in 1879. With at least three known species, this dinosaur lived in the Morrison Formation of present day Western US, during the late Jurassic Period and became extinct by the end of the period. Perhaps one of the most controversially classified dinosaurs, paleontologists have reclassified the Brontosaurus several times since its discovery to an extent that some quarters…
