.... usually prey on people, but some do become man eaters. If a Tiger becomes a man eater it is because of a wound, weakness, or just because it is to old. The young accompany their mother on the hunt when they are 5 to 6 months of age. Tigers begin to hunt alone when they are just eleven months old. Before the young can hunt alone, the mother will demonstrate how it is done(Comptons Interactive Encyclopedia 1993). Tigers usually prey on deer wild cattle called gore, and wild pigs. Whenever humans have domestic animals, Tigers will feed on cattle, horses, sheep, and goats. A cattle eating Tiger will kill an ox about every 5 da .....

.... spread much further then the second wave of imported ants recognized as Solenopsis Invicta Buren or red fire ants(4. Lockley 33). This second wave of ants arrived in about 1945 and spread much more rapidly and dominated the previous more passive black ant(5. Lockley 34). Homer Collins, a fire ant expert, stated that "The new invader, known as the red imported fire ant, proved more adaptive and rapidly displaced the existing imported black ant. By 1949, Solenopsis Invicta Buren were the dominant species of imported fire ant. Ants could be found in commercial ornamental-plant nurseries in the heart of the Southeast." Red ants .....

.... into different organisms has been suggested many times since the early 1800s, when scientists began looking for evidence that the evolution process took place. "The most outstanding evolutionists in the nineteenth century was Jean Baptist de Lamarck, who argued that the patterns of resemblance arose through modifications of a common lineage-for example , that lions tigers and others all descendant from a cat like ancestor." (Dickey p.42) It had already been a widely accepted theory that different animals adapt to different modes of life and environmental conditions. Lamarck argued that physical and mental changes occurred from .....

.... was the way they conducted themselves when they were dealing with their hypothesizes. Galileo's Hypothesis Galileo was well known for standing up for what he believed in and pushing the things he wanted. He was constantly writing letters and engaging in debates over the issue of Copernicanism. Galileo's entire reason for doing this was to make the scientific and religious communities accept that Copernicanism was actually a fact and that there was enough proof to believe it. One example of the way Galileo strongly pushed his beliefs on others was the way he preached Copernicanism to the people of Rome in 1615. While he was in .....

.... because of abnormalities that occur like if the embryo is developed by two sperm cells the chromosome count is wrong. Another is as the cells duplicate they usually do not make it passed the 32-cell stage or 64 because of abnormalities in the environment or just because the process is not natural. The real reason why it does not work yet is not clearly known at the moment. Since became such a distinct possibility with Dolly being born many ethical and moral issues have been brought up. First off cloning takes out the entire autonomy of childbirth. You would now have many children with identical features causing those children .....

.... Roots have tiny “hairs” which increase the surface of the roots, which results in more gathering of minerals and water. Stems are usually above ground, grow upward, and usually have leaves. Plants that do not have leaves generally use the stem as the photosynthetic surface, like cacti. Leaves are still the most common photosynthetic surface on plants, though. Leaves absorb carbon dioxide and release oxygen. Some leaves of plants have spines or thorns to provide them with protection from animals. Certain types of plants have highly modified leaves to trap and digest insects, known as insectivorous plants. Most plants exi .....

.... on the Internet you are everywhere. A customer in Japan can buy exactly what a customer in the UK buys from the same electronic store. The capability to purchase products at ease from all over the world would eventually result in the weakening of international boundaries and increased trade between countries. For example when the machinery for one of General Electric's light-bulb factories broke down, GE would invite bids from four domestic suppliers. With the help of the Internet General Electric extended its bidding abroad, and awarded the contract to a Hungarian firm saving 20%. The Internet will also increase price transparen .....

.... indicate that natural changes in the brightness of the sun and volcanic emissions both played an important role in governing climate variations over the period studied. But over the past few decades, greenhouse gases produced by human activities appear to have had an increasing influence on temperatures. "The anomalous warmth of several recent years appears likely to be related to human influences on climate," said Mann. The study bears out concerns voiced by scientists in recent years regarding global warming, Bradley said. It is known that industrialization during the past century has increased levels of carbon dioxid .....

.... while nitrate and chlorate give colors in pyrotechny. The impure sulfide of radiantly glows after exposure to the light. metal has few practical applications, although it is sometimes used in coating electrical conductors in electronic apparatus and in automobile ignition systems. sulfate (BaSO4) is used as a filler for rubber products, in paint, and in linoleum. nitrate is used in fireworks. A form of sulfate, which is opaque to X rays, is used for the X-ray examination of the gastrointestinal tract. Naturally occurring is a mixture of seven stable isotopes. Twenty two other radioactive isotopes are known to exist. .....

.... confidently stated that tea was known in the three kingdoms epoch (AD 222-277).¡¨ More importantly, however, ¡§tea [was] originally drunk for its medicinal properties.¡¨ (Blofeld 4) Evans links the early popularity of tea to Taoist religious practices during the Qin Dynasty (201 ¡V 207 B.C.). ¡§Taoists in particular became obsessed by long life and an Elixir of Life became a Taoist ideal. For Taoists the Elixir of Life was believed to be tea.¡¨ (Evans 20) Almost every writer who records the history of tea notes that it was originally consumed for its therapeutic effects. Zhang Binglun says that ¡§much was written in an .....
