The tectonic collisions are a slow-moving event, as if set in slow motion, creating a long process that eventually resulting in the formation of volcanoes. The Cascade Range of the Pacific Northwest is known for its deep evergreen forests and numerous tall jagged cones and this area is home to the Strato-Volcano…

Today’s special menu is, “Fingerling Potatoes with Waxmoth Genes (served with sour cream from bovine growth hormone treated cows), Braised Pork Loin with Human Growth Genes, and Rice Pudding with Pea and Bacteria Genes…Bon Appetit!” (Hart 11). Unknown genetically modified genes such as <> have been inputted into plentitudes of crops, unknown for their safety for human consumption and environmental effects.

1 Introduction Since the eruption in 1980, the area around Mount St. Helens has rebounded in ways that were somewhat unexpected, with recovery coming not only from the surrounding area, but from within the barren expanse that remained after the eruption. While not the first eruption overall, this eruption was the first to occur on the U.S mainland in a time when modern scientific monitoring could track the events associated with it. Smaller earthquakes in March of 1980 eventually led to the…

Aquatic macrophytes functions in several ways in the aquatic environment, they are critical to Niger Delta inland waters because they enhance the physical structure of the habitat which provides living space for small animals and play an important role in fisheries production. Macrophytes play a vital role in the aquatic environment and the lives of rural communities but unfortunately very little effort is being directed towards the conservation of these resources and these macrophytes can get…
