On October 8th, 2015 our class took a field trip to the Conodoguinet Creek to test the water quality. We did 3 experiments to help us conclude the quality. During the first experiment we observed the different types of organisms in the creek. We also took tests for eutrophication in the water. Another experiment we performed were acidity tests. The trip was very informational and educational. The first experiment we did was critter count. We got into groups of 4 or 5 and one person from each

Time after time, spring arrives just like the previous year beforehand. Although this signifies the time of rebirth, it seems as if nothing obtained a new life with the passage of time. This yearly process normally holds a special place with many due to the positive feelings towards new life. Flowers still germinate at the same time as past loved ones rot away in the ground, without a thought. In Edna St. Vincent Millay's "Spring," the reader of the poem can easily identify the speaker's dissatisfied

The spring is a time of rebirth and signifying the beginning of a new year. However, what is the purpose of the spring's return?

Water potential is often represented by the Greek letter, psi ψ .The higher the rate of collisions of the water molecules with the membrane, the greater the pressure on it. This pressure is called water potential. Water always moves from higher water potential to lower water potential. The standard unit for water potential is kilopascals (kPa), which is also the unit pressure. Pure water is designated a water potential of zero which has the highest water potential under atmospheric pressure at 25°C

Today was the day to tackle the spring cleanup around the lake. Winter brought a lot of trash and deadfall to the lakeshore and Frank figured it would take all day to get it cleaned up. Frank pushed the wheelbarrow out of the barn into the spring sunshine, and headed down the path towards the lake. As he crested the hill, he took in the view of the lake nestled in the valley. It was surrounded by budding willow and oak trees, and the grass was starting to hint green. The sun glinted off the lake,

The stickleback fish have gained much attention from evolutionary biologists because of their historic ability to adapt to conditions that were not favorable and to survive successfully in them. They are also able to give researchers insight into how evolution occurs in other organisms. The stickleback normally spawns in freshwater but lives in the salt-water ocean. Long ago when ice melted and receded, the fish were given new possible places to inhabit and they did, expanding their spawning locations

Some of issues and information that I learned throughout this semester was the web life, food web, overpopulation, mutualism & commensalism, climate change

Such is the case with William Carlos Williams and Louise Gluck. In William Carlos Williams Spring and All, he presents spring in the more traditional birth period. In contrast, Louise Gluck’s For Jane Meyers sees spring as the coming of spring as

Located in North St. Louis, Coldwater Creek was once a natural beauty. Children would explore its wonders, reveling in the innocence of their childhood games. From catching frogs and tadpoles to playing games of hide and go seek, the children were completely unaware that the waters and sediment they waded through contained a danger that, come adulthood, could likely end their lives. In 1942, for roughly six months, a mass amount of uranium oxide for the use in nuclear reactions was produced in downtown

With the year- round schedule a fall break would be included. Cutting down summer also contributes to the fact that we would have longer breaks. Our spring break would be changed from one week to three. Our winter break would be changed from two weeks to three.

Tuck Everlasting Some people have difficulty deciding which is better: the book or the film. Natalie Babbitt wrote the story Tuck Everlasting and Disney made a version of Tuck Everlasting. Natalie Babbitt’s Tuck Everlasting is a book about a 10 year old girl, Winnie Foster, who meets a family, the Tuck’s, who are immortal. They have some happy and sad experiences with each other.
