Finally, at the end of the tour, the aliens participating in the tour reach an avocado tree, a bowl of guacamole, and a bag of…

Ozone depletion occurs when manufactured chemicals such as chlorofluorocarbons reach the stratosphere; the UV radiation from the sun causes the release of chlorine atoms that react with the ozone. This chemical cycle causes ozone destruction that depletes the ozone layer. Ultimately, the chain reaction will affect the…

According to studies done by the University of Amsterdam, a blood alcohol content of .04 can begin to hinder the ability to reason quickly and understand mistakes, supporting the belief by some that failure to use proper judgement does not start at the legal limit, it may start as early as half of the limit. During the study, Richard Ridderinkhof and his peers studied what they named the brain 's "oops" response which can be electronically monitored in a part of the brain called the anterior…
