Mantle

The organism that I have chosen lives on my property, it is the Leopard slug, the scientific name for this organism is Linus Maximus. Before writing this essay I must admit I had a lot of apathy towards this pest that lived in my yard. As I systematically exam this creature I found it remarkable; it demonstrated its exceptional ability to adapt. As an illustration the Leopard slug occupies nearly world-wide distribution through human activities. The organism that I have chosen lives on my…

Section 1: Plate tectonics is the the theory that the outer crust of the earth is cut up into a lot of pieces called plate tectonics. The plate tectonics move around in the mantle. The mantle is the rocky middle layer of our earth it lies right above the core. The plates are very much like a shel going around the earth. The evidence of plate tectonics began as simply circumstantial evidence one example is continental drift which is the theory that all the continents used to be one giant…

bilateral symmetry. Mollusks have coelomate coelom, mesoderm lines the organs and body cavity. Phylum Mollusca has distinct features, such as a visceral mass, a muscular foot, and a mantle. The muscular foot aids them in locomotion and capturing food. In some cases, like class Cephalopoda, the foot evolved into tentacles. The mantle helps secrete the shell that some animals in certain classes have. In the class Bivalva, animals have two lateral shells attached at the umbo. Mollusks diversity…

better. He wanted to prove that it wasn’t just for the money and the fame (Bob Hersom). Murcer was the only Yankee player to ever play with both Mickey Mantle and Don Mattingly (“Bobby Murcer Obituary”). He was a five-time all-star in five straight seasons, from 1966-1971. It was an honorable time where people thought he could be the next Mickey Mantle. He drove in 1,043 runs in 1,908 Major League games. Bobby’s best friend, Thurman Munson, died and he gave the eulogy at the funeral. He did…

of the earth according to depth were; crust, mantle and core with the crust being the outermost while crust the deepest. The characteristics of these layers vary in density, heat and nature. The crust is rigid, and the thinnest; especially in the oceanic regions. This is due to relatively uniformity of the ocean surface compared to the land; which is defined by large variations in topography including mountains and valleys. Beneath the crust, the mantle layer is found in a semi-solid state. The…

to reveal complex profiles of the deep-ocean floors. The finding included ocean floor sediment to be thickest at the edge of the Atlantic and thinnest close to mid-ocean ridge. At the same time, mantle studies also reported seismic wave information which verified the existence of a layer in the upper mantle, information of which strongly suggested it to be a deformable…

towards others and friendship. Choices can affect judgement. Mickey Mantle chose to judge Holling by what he wore, the result was he lost two of his fans by making a choice that might have hurt Holling’s feelings. Now Holling trust Danny Hupfer more because he defended Holling by giving his signed baseball back to Mickey because he is a loyal friend. One example of my explanation in The Wednesday Wars is, “Mickey Mantle looked me up and down. ‘Sure he is. Listen, I don't sign baseballs…

night before the person in question is to be knighted, that person would be locked up in a chapel, or a cathedral, along with his armor and sword, there to pray over them and ask God for His guidance and mercy upon him as he takes upon himself the mantle of knighthood. It was understood by knights, no matter what company they were a part of, that God was their King and they merely carried out His Will on Earth. And they put a lot of time and effort into making themselves and others realize and…

that Plate tectonics unified all of these previous unanswered questions about the oceans and continents. The actual theory of plate tectonics can be defined as “The theory that Earth's outer shell is divided into several plates that glide over the mantle and the rocky inner layer above the core. The plates act like a hard and rigid shell compared…
