vacation. I've always been a fish. I love swimming in the ocean, the pools, water parks, anywhere you can think of. My mother and i would go out really deep in the ocean and just float while the sun kissed our skin. The water was warm on my body like it was giving me a big hug. We would stay out there for hours and just talk. at the end of the day when the sun goes down over the water, we would go to the pool. I absolutely loved water as a kid. Going to the beach was the best part of summer as a…
Wastewater is Ms. Brown's main topic of discussion in this article. The effects on drinking water, landfills and wastewater treatment facilities are outstanding and a poor representation of what is being done to regulate fracking practices across the country. This pushes it's readers to think twice about the water they are drinking and what is really being done for the peace of mind of the rural citizen. With case-by-case interviews of people in the field of wastewater treatment and maintenance…
nutrients Dries quickly Does not hold water well Silt Just enough big to see them with a magnifying glass. Not as heavy as sand but heavier than clay Holds together, feels smooth and powdery Holds together, moderate crumbling, cannot be rolled in a strand Some smear More nutrients than sand Takes a longer time to dry. Holds water better than sand. Clay You need a microscope to see them. Ligther than sand and silt. Feels slippery or sticky and breaks into hard clumps Holds together and it is…
The ancillary process for methanol production is purification. The aim of purification process is to separate the methanol from any impurities such as water, alcohol, alkanes, etc. Methanol is transferred to storage tanks which is specially assigned for crude Methanol. The Methanol will then be feed to the next part of the operation which is purification. In two different distillation columns, Methanol is purify to achieve the product quality which is required. In the first column, low boiling…
subtropical coastlines (Allen, 1998). Mangroves are trees and shrubs that have adapted to living in saltwater environments. They are propped up, out of the water, by dense, tangled roots that allow them to obtain oxygen in oxygen poor sediments. Their roots also allow the tree to remain supported during the rise and fall of the tides. They slow down water movement which allows for sediment to build up within the roots, which may help to stabilize coastlines and reduce erosion from different…
awake during the cool nights. Some animals you should expect to see in this biome are jackrabbit, kit fox, cactus wren, puma, golden jackal, coyotes, alligator lizards, deer, and toads. They are all adapted to the hot climate by having to require less water, since there are droughts, having scaly skin, or specifically the jackrabbit has long ears to regulate body heat. Some birds are adapted to eat different foods year round based on the weather…
8th grade February 3, 2016 “Box Jellyfish” Box jellyfish are special in many different ways. They have unique talents and characteristics. Box jellyfish live in tropical waters. They also have very complex body systems. Box jellyfish are one of the few endangered species of jellyfish. Box jellyfish are rare and are very hard to see. Box jellyfish are really deadly to humans and animals. Box jellyfish have a lot of foods that they enjoy to eat. They barely have any predators that enjoy them.…
because of suggested methane leaks, that are eliminating the positive effects of naturally occurring greenhouse gases. Due to the high-impact hydraulic fracturing of the Earth’s crust, water contamination of nearby water tables has been recorded, leading to poor tap water quality, and because of the high amount of water required for fracking operations, it diminishes the availability for recreational use. In 2015, about 19.4 million barrels…
snaked along the Texan desert where he lived. He waves his water detector back and forth looking for a water deposit. His eye is keen for some sign of water, he hawks for plant life. It’s been 30 years since all of the surface water has disappeared. Climate change has rapidly transformed the earth and all of the surface water evaporated. All of the ground water has been privatised by the government. There used to be clean, rushing water flowing along the same creek he could now walk along and…
and osmosis. In order to see diffusion and osmosis in action it was required to test three different solutions on an egg: one with sugar, another with vinegar, and the last one with regular water. This would demonstrate certain interactions, and movements of the water; making the different concentrations of water visible. As stated there will be three solutions, this will help answer the question of how each type of solution will individually affect the egg when left intact overnight. This will…
