habitat, medicine and climate all are provided by plants. Plants are autotrophic eukaryotes, consist of complex cells and are able to produce their own food. There are two types of plants Terrestrial and aquatic. The Terrestrial plants over long periods of time have evolved from their former plant structures Chlorophytes and these plants demand adaptations to avoid dying. Moreover their stomata assist the plant from desiccation and provides support in the development of roots. On the other hand…

A typical manor only covered a few square miles of land which usually consisted of the lord’s house, a church, and workshops. In general roughly 15 to 30 families lived in the village that was on the lord’s manor.

chick positioning in a great tit, Parus major, nests, “the angle between male and female feeding position varies across nests between 0 degrees and 180 degrees and the individual feeding location of each parent appears to be stable over the nestling period”. This situation creates a source of contention between siblings over food. If a parent provides food from the same position in the nest, there is only one advantageous feeding site for the siblings to compete for but if both parents feed at…

Katrina, for example, was responsible for over 108 billion dollars in property damages (“Extremely Powerful Hurricanes”). Unfortunately, the shorelines and the local communities are not the only things that are affected. Hurricanes can change the woodland structure further inland. Mangrove swamps and other forested wetlands typically take on the high winds that causes defoliation in vegetation and decimates the tree canopies (“Hurricanes: Science and Society”). In the article, “Hurricanes:…
