In the Zone

New Madrid Fault is a dangerous zone because of the active faults that are actually buried 100 to 200 feet deep in soft river deposited soils of alluvium, making these faults harder to study because of their location underground. Most faults are found on the surface making them easier to analyze for any activity. Microseismic earthquakes (magnitude less than 1.0 to about 2.0), measured by seismographs but not felt by humans, occur on average every other day in this zone, on average around 200…

they must be out of their comfort zones. In fact, because of our nature everyone loves comfort zones where stress and anxiety could reduce to the minimum, where people can know what will happen next and can easily plan accordingly. However, if students stay in their comfort zones all the time, they will begin to hold themselves back instead of making some challenging decisions to learn, take new risks and try new things. More importantly, being out of comfort zone to try new things is one of the…

takes integrity. No task is possible without integrity. To do the right thing even if it isn’t the easiest thing. To arm an individual’s spirit, they need to stop focusing on the problem and live in the present. They need to move out of the comfort zone and doing so preserver for larger later rather than smaller sooner. As shown in “Arming the Spirit”, it is those who have integrity and choose to use it who survive. It takes integrity to take the risk and move on from the problem and search…

levels, known as euphotic, disphotic, and aphotic. The euphotic zone is also known as the sunlight zone, this is the top layer of the ocean and it receives almost all of the sun's rays. The next section is called the disphotic zone. This layer of the ocean is a little too deep for much sunlight to break through, it can also be known as the twilight zone of the ocean. The last zone is often referred to the deep sea, or the aphotic zone. This is the deepest layer of the sea and gets a total of…

The concentric zone model can be linked to back to Robert Park, however, Ernest Burgess formalized and worked upon the data of Park and applied it to Chicago, according to the textbook (p173). Burgess exclaimed that each city had a “concentric ring pattern” and that there…

In everyday life, people use antibacterial products to sanitize their homes. Some of the common active ingredients in household cleaning products are thymol, lactic acid, sodium hypochlorite, and ethanol (e.g. active ingredient in some hand sanitizers). The purpose of our experiment was to determine if antibacterial products lost effectiveness in killing common bacteria in everyday environments after repeated use. This is an important environmental issue because if these products are losing…

chemotaxis, and thigmotaxis. Phototaxis is a behavior in which the organisms show a spatial relationship to a source of stimulation, even though the individuals are not oriented to the stimulus (Phillip, 1936). The optimal zone acts as a trap for the organisms. At the limit of the zone the animal responds by performing a shock reaction, so that it's direction of movement is reversed or…

Governor, Dixie Lee Ray and President Carter surveyed the area, they both acknowledged the tragedy of the loss of lives however were quick to point out the that victims were in the red zone, an area where the public was not allowed because of the danger an eruption posed. There were only three victims in the red zone and each one had special permission to be…

The two antibiotics that prevented the growth of the bacteria were erythromycin and penicillin. The antibiotic that had no effect on the S. pneumoniae was neomycin. The zone of inhibition (displayed in figures 1 and 2) produced by the saturated penicillin disk was 29.2 mm. Erythromycin had a zone of inhibition of 17.8 mm. Conclusively, penicillin was the most effective in inhibiting the growth of the sample of S. pneumoniae bacteria. The findings correlated with this study 's initial…

get photo evidence of the Church to make it clear that I went. I also made a plan about when I would go, and when I would answer these questions. The comfort zone can be defined as something you do every day, security. While the courage zone is more about risk, and things you've never done. For me, this assignment was in my comfort zone, because my family often goes to mass. We attend mass about twice a month, and I also go to the liturgies once a month for school. On top of that, I was…
