The Artic region is the area around the North Pole, described as an ocean surrounded by land. Snow and ice covered the far North, and the more southern parts are covered by boreal forest and in between lies the tundra. [1] The Artic is home to a large number of plants and animals and people that survive some of the most extreme conditions on the planet.

It was a cold day early December. We stepped out into the icy tundra and and ran for the car. The inside of the car felt like it was below 0°. As we started on the highway the snow looked so graceful as it fell on the streets and on the passing. My Grandma and I were heading over to my aunt's house to make Christmas candies. Once we were there and inside we got everything set up. The chocolate was melting on the stove, the parchment paper was laid neatly across the table, recipes taped on…

Squirrels, likewise to humans and non-human animals, adjust their behaviors in accordance to seasonal changes. One key behavior that has been shown to vary by season is squirrel foraging behavior. It is important to understand this relationship in order to promote the well-being of squirrels by ensuring their ability to acquire energy-rich food year round. In a study conducted by researchers Everts, Strijkstra, Hut, Hoffmann, and Millesi (2004), it was shown that aboveground activity level…

confronted by an elderly man despite himself being youthful. If they had truly found each other, I am doubtful this would be the case. Lastly, though rather weaker, is that fact that Cobb’s began to lose sense of reality near the end of the film. In the tundra region, he began to question whether his wife, or the dream, were real or not. The lack of drive to kill her given their goal, and his strong desire to return to his children, seems to feed the narrative that the character would rather…

There are many concerns about the changes in the overall climate of the earth. One of these dangerous climate problems is referred to as global warming. Global warming refers to the recent and ongoing rise in global average temperature near Earth 's surface. However, global warming itself represents only one aspect of climate change. Some people think that these changes are a result of natural events; others think it is human activity and some think it is a combination of both. In this paper…

I would consider myself a generally good driver. I’ve never gotten any kind of ticket, I always wear my seatbelt and I don’t drive recklessly. That’s why my parents trusted me to get my own car. After selling my jeep, I bought a 1998 Acura Integra. I got it for a sweet deal and it had barely anything wrong with it. When you first buy your car, you think of all the cool things about it or what you plan to do with it. Never do you think that you’re going to lose that car, let alone almost losing…

First off Chevy is better than Ford because Chevy has better motors and they get better gas mileage. The Chevy Camaros have a LS1 in them with a 350 V8 in them. Some Camaros only have a V6 engine, which isn’t as fast as the V8, but it will get you where you need to go when you need to get there. The Ford Mustang has a 302 in it which is smaller than a Camaros motor. The Chevy motors can run more miles than a Ford motor could ever think about going. The 5.7 350 is a great motor for Chevy…
