Discussion: The completion and analysis of the data produced by this experiment showed that sunflower oil will not serve as an affective pesticide. Sunflower oil did influence the C. maculatus’ ability to reproduce. Beans with 15ml/kg of oil were able to cut the number of eggs present by almost half. However, the analysis of the error bars showed no significance between the no sunflower oil and sunflower oil of either 5ml/kg or 15ml/kg concentration. This lead to the conclusion that while…

You ever wondered what was in your food huh ? I do too. You may never know what goes on in these factories in the USA or anywhere else.Well allow me to give you some insight in these factories of death.It is called GMOs (genetically modified organism) sounds funny right.Who would ever think of that! GMOs are the foods that most of us consume everyday without knowing. The food is modified to last longer or used to kill insects. However, these foods weren’t originally designed for us.You may think…

energy keeping themselves warm. For example, grasshoppers have three times as much protein and have many nutrients such as iron and zinc. I think Goodyear is advocating for eating insects as part of our human diet to combat food crises that might arise in the future. Most insects are distant from humans, which means that there is less likely for a disease to arise. In addition, it takes less water for insects needed to produce the same amount as beef. I disagree,…

actually banned. Despite all the controversies surrounding it, GMOs are beneficial to society. Foods are made more nutritious by bio. First, GMOs can aid people in poverty. A genetically modified kind of rice has beta carotene in the grain. The human body can turn this into Vitamin A. (Are GMOs Good or Bad) Many children in third world countries are lacking Vitamin A which accounts for almost 500,000 blindness in kids and two million deaths. (Five Good Reasons to Support GMOs) Also,…

An experiment was taken that used corn and if the depth of the planting affected how many bushels grew. Seeds were planted ½ inch below, 1 inch below, 2 inches, and 3 inches. According to the Demonstrative Report, 2008, corn that was planted 2-3 inches below the surface had the best results and seeds just ½ inch below had the worst. This is a little different from the experiment being tested today. The experiment being tested is when you plant Alaskan Pea seeds deeper will they grow the same…

Upon investigation, Tello concluded the Paracas culture used an artificial preservation technique that he formulated because of a suspected carbonization of the bundles. Tello inferred that there was a form of incineration that the Paracas people used in their preservation (Guillén 2004) and concluded that this may have been ceremonial or accidental. Yet, in a study by Yacovleff and Muelle, they argue that mummification was caused by natural desiccation (Vreeland Jr 1998). They cite the aridity…

Salvinia molesta is an invasive species that has consumed many bodies of water in the states of Louisiana, Texas, Alabama, and Colorado (McFarland et al. 2004). The invasive species originated from South America and the first place it was transferred to was Australia (Room 1983). Eichhornia crassipes also originated from South America (Gopal and Kanta 1981). Lemna sp. is native to many places around the world (Azeez and Sabbar 2012). The extracts were created from E. crassipes roots and shoots,…

Good nutrition is one of the key to good health. Corporations should be responsible to have certain policies towards unhealthy food or the GMO. GMO also known as Genetically Modified Organisms, whose genetic material is manipulated in a lab through genetic engineering. Gmo foods are not safe and particularly not accepted by most developed countries. Some policies to avoid these bad foods and unhealthy foods is Food labeling, Isolated aisle of organic foods at grocery stores, and regular food…

My Ecological Footprint My Quiz Summary Summarize you quiz results. Which areas did you have the least and which the biggest impact on the earth (food, shelter, mobility, resources, or goods)? If everyone lived like you, how many planets would we need? How many global acres does it take to support your lifestyle? • The summary of my quiz results are 48% Services, 20% Food, 16% Shelter, 9% Goods, and 7% Mobility • According to the ecological footprint calculator if everyone lived like me it…

Hi, I'm Claire and I am a citizen of England but I have decided to travel over to the colonies to see what their life is like. I have visited for eight and a half months now so I have gotten the gist of how life is lived here. First of all, I find it quite weird how they have their class system set up. Instead of having their classes born into, they have to use their knowledge and talent to work themselves up or marry someone of the higher class. Also, what the colonists wear shows how high…
