A thunderous exclamation is more pronounced than a timid chime. When there is a thunderstorm, the rumbling vibrations echoing the skies is usually more petrifying than the clashing lights filling the clouds. When a mother scolds a child, the way her voice fumes and heightens make the hair of a child’s arms rise.

is the core. Earth's crust and upper mantle are broken into large plates that move slowly. Figure 1 shows the layers of the Earth. Figure 1: Layers of the Earth Plate tectonics The Earth's surface is formed of large pieces of rock called plates that are also called tectonic plates. These plates are always moving; sometimes they slide past one another at other times they collide with one another. History In geologic terms, a plate is a rigid, large and massive piece of solid rock. The word…

Life in Pompeii, Uncovered Bang! In the year 79 AD, the huge volcano, Mount Vesuvius erupted covering everything around for miles in 20 feet of stones and ash.

Even though Pompeii seemed destroyed, it had actually been perfectly preserved. In this essay, I will explain the aftermath, daily objects, and the similarities of Pompeii…

3. I chose the plate with dilution factor 10-7 to count. This was the only plate that yielded an appropriate CFU, therefore, it was the sample with the highest countable colonies. The plate with the dilution of 10-6 yielded Too Many To Count (>300) while the plates with dilution 10-8 and 10-9 yielded Too Few To Count (<30). 4.If I were to do a total count on this sample, as opposed to a viable count, the total count would be higher because it accounts for all cells, not just visible and…
