    dispersal routes is punctuated with delineating migrations that eventually led anatomically modern humans (AMH) to spread over most parts of the world within the past 100,000 years (Cavalli- Sforza, Menozzi and Piazza 1994; Lahr and Foley 1994). Migration waves are influenced by landscape traversed and thus, natural inter continental passageways acting as corridors played a key-role in the evolutionary history of human population migration events. Mitochondrial DNA polymorphism (mtDNA, Y…

    The seismograph influenced the world and madeJust as this impact sets waves in motion on a quiet pond, so an earthquake generates seismic waves that radiate out through the Earth.” It easier to save lives from an earthquake. It warns people when to get out of that city or state.”Obviously this can show how a siesmograph works and can save many lives.How it works is that it detects a siesmic wave.”seismic detectors into networks that halt bullet trains, close valves at manufacturing plants and…

    involves the three theories previously mentioned. The mechanism would have to be quick, working in the space of time between the first warning sign, whether it be the change in electromagnetic field, presence of sound waves, or arrival of initial P waves, and the approach of the S waves and earthquake itself. Given the presence of a stimuli detection method, the second step would be the linkage between that stimulus and earthquake, which would then elicit a response. The conclusion can be drawn…

    always just been absolutely amazed about the amount of destruction they cause and how powerful they are. Although I have never thought of becoming a seismologist, it something I would want to learn more about. A seismologist studies seismic waves, energy waves caused by rock suddenly breaking apart within the earth or slipping of tectonic plates. There are many ways that scientists are able to study seismic ways and earthquakes. The first way is when seismologist analyze the damaged cause by an…

    A Helmholtz resonator is a rigid container which has an opening to the air surrounding it. A common example of a Helmholtz resonator is a bottle because it has a set volume as well as having an opening which is open to the surrounding air. By considering the Helmholtz resonator as having a neck, such as the neck of a wine bottle, the dynamics of the system may be described. When energy is introduced near the opening of the bottle, for example blowing across it, some of the energy will vibrate…
