on the love aspect of Daisy and Mr. Gatsby’s affair rather than the truths of the corruption of the American Dream. This corruption which was the main focus of the author Scott Fitzgerald. This is supposed by the article Shimmying off the literary Mantle by the New York Times in the quote ”The best way to enjoy Baz Luhrmann’s big and noisy new version of “The Great Gatsby is to put aside whatever literary agenda you are tempted to bring with you”. The movie takes a more glamorous, hollywood…

heads with tentacles and eyes. An extension to tagmatization of Arthropods is the ability to moult in order to grow. This refers to the shedding of the old exoskeleton replaced with a new larger exoskeleton. Mollusks on the other hand requires the mantle in order to maintain its shell. One hypothesis as to have an advantage for moulting is that Arthropods are able to remove any parasites that hosts itself onto the exoskeleton body, allowing for prolonged survival for the…

family, mainly Father. Much like his name implies, he is seen as someone who follows in the footsteps or is shadowed by the elder family member. As soon as father leaves on his exhibition to Alaska, Mother’s Younger Brother is taxed with taking up the mantle of the family business while he is away. He is given more obligation to care for the family however, he is not asked, he is told to do so without much regard for his own desires. “Father shook the young man’s hand. He had given him a raise…

Yosemite National Park was first protected in 1864 and has since been a fascinating landscape that can be observed by people from all over (NPS). The formation of Yosemite Valley has been a natural phenomena for millions of years, formed by some of Earth’s most compelling geological sources. Yosemite has many beautiful granite formations and glacier-carved landscapes that attract everyone from artists to geologists (Huber, 1987). Yosemite Valley was formed by a series of different forces…

There are many unique contrasts between Jovian and Terrestrial Planets. Firstly, Jovian Planets are visibly bigger than the Terrestrial Planets, which, are notably smaller. The reason, a Jovian Planet is bigger than a terrestrial planet due to its closeness to the sun as well as its chemical composition. Secondly, A Jovian Planet has rings while a Terrestrial Planet has none. A Jovian Planet’s rings have a composition of rock and ice that orbit the sun. However, A Terrestrial Planet does not…

It is concluded that Yellowstone will someday erupt again however, it might not be in the near future. With the myriad of tourists that visit the National Park every year, they had to be sure that it wouldn’t explode soon to ensure people’s safety. Geologists have found that the ground around where the volcano is, is now swelling. The swelling indicates that the underlying magma chamber is refilling once again. But people have other questions, how was this volcano formed? Usually volcanoes…

s-wave. Wave B starts at the velocity of about 8 km/s and wave A starts at about 4 km/s. Since wave B is moving faster, it is the p-wave. The p-wave refracted off the outer core and the s-wave reflected. The approximate boundary between the mantle and the outer core is 3000 km. The s-wave reflects off of the outer core and that happens at about 3000 km. The p-wave refracts off of the…

Tycoons like Donald Trump are letting go their behind-the-scenes positions and stepping right onto the political stage. It can be insinuated that we are entering a new phase of American politics whereby the 1 percent more regularly is taking on the mantle of public servant to run the show directly, however, underlining the brokenness of our system of democratic representation. According to the World Economic Forum, rising…

I would like to address the so-called Young-Earth viewpoint relating to catastrophic plate tectonics. The Young-Earthier reject the idea that the Earth is billions, millions, or even hundreds of thousands of years old, instead insisting that the Earth is only about 6,000 years old ("The 10 Best Evidences from Science that Confirm a Young Earth"). How this mindset relates to plate tectonics is their explanation of the great flood and its effects on the physical properties of the Earth’s crust.…

of its mass, but soon recovered it when sediment was formed above him. However, this new sediment did not last long as he and the other rocks started to break down. He then succumbed to the pressure of Earth and went in the fiery depths of Earth’s mantle. He wasn’t there long however as magma was forced up to replace where two tectonic plates were forced upwards. The collision of these plates caused a mountain to be formed. On top of that mountain, glaciers were formed and poor Rockington was…
