I believe the Rapanui walked the statues 11 miles across what is now known as Easter Island. The Rapanui are peoples who lived in the island. The only information we know from the Rapanui about the statues walked across the island. The first reason I believe the statues were rolled on wooden sledges is because that is so much easier for a human than to pull them with ropes. "In 1998, a group of scientists put the sledge-and-roller theory to the test, using a 10-ton replica of a statue and 70…

While determining the differences between two different sagebrush communities and the north/south aspect, I accept my hypothesis that there was a differences in the plant cover in a sagebrush community that has seen burning, and/or on a north aspect.

Interpretation Acid-mine drainage occurs when sulfide-bearing waste rock and tailings come in contact with waters containing dissolved oxygen. The resulting oxidation reactions release associated metals and acidity, which may impact the biological community and significantly lower the pH of downstream waterways (Army, 2010). Released metals that are transported downstream may be removed from solution through precipitation of and sorption onto iron and manganese hydroxides. Attenuation of metals…
