David Bowman Important Scene Book
363 words
There are many scenes that take place in a book,
some are more important than others. In the book I
read over the summer, 2001: Space Odyssey by
Arthur Clarke. A few of the scenes were very
important and without them the book would have
been a waste. Here are three examples of
importance in scenes from my book. Frank Poole is
sent to the moon of earth to explore a strange
uncovered artifact. This artifact turns out to be
a signaling device put on the moon by aliens

what political system is intact. Any sanction of
people or land my attempt to establish a type of
government or monarchy. The government or
political system may try to shape society how the
"leaders" want it, but it will never work out

La La Land Make The First Move Woman

What is love and how does it start? It may seem
like a stupid question, but on second examination,
it does not seem quite so stupid. After all, love
is a feeling. How can we really describe what a
feeling is or means? The meaning of any feeling
can differ greatly between individuals, and the
meaning of love is no different. True love is
about needing someone so badly that it is
unbearable to think of life without that person.
The starting of love is a very complex procedure.
It all starts with t...

Sharks And Rays Electric Fields Signal
257 words
Nearly forty years ago, I observed sharks and rays
respond to weak electric fields. The biological
significance of this finding became evident when
shortly thereafter I discovered the common bio
electric fields in the vicinity of aquatic
animals. The electric sense became an established
fact when I proved that sharks and rays cue in on
the electric fields of prey, even during the dark
or when the prey is hiding in the sand. Field
strengths as low as 1 - 2 nV/cm suffice to alert
them as to the pr...

Amino Acids Dna Strand

A mutation is a change in the genetic material
that controls heredity. The genetic material is
contained in chromosomes, which are divided into
genes. Point mutations involve single genes and
occur by substitution and insertion or deletion of
a single base in DNA. Insertions or deletions,
referred to as frameshift mutations, shift the
reading of the code by one or more bases so that
all amino acids produced after the addition or
deletion are affected. Translation is a series of
complex biochemic...

U S Military Global Positioning System

In the 1800 s, most things were done using
manpower, not machines. To plow a field it used to
require a team of horses and a plow. To make
butter it required a hand churn. Life was simple
and people depended on themselves. In the 1920 s
the automobile was a very important technological
machine. Instead of a team of horses and a
carriage, one could move about more efficiently in
an automobile. Through the following years many
advances in technology occurred: electric

Mid June Day Telling Your Brain Body
1,335 words
How does a human hear? When an object makes a
noise, it sends vibrations (better known as sound
waves) speeding through the air. These vibrations
are then funneled into your ear canal by your
outer ear. As the vibrations move into your middle
ear, they hit your eardrum and cause it to vibrate
as well. This sets off a chain reaction of
vibrations. Your eardrum, which is smaller and
thinner than the nail on your pinky finger,
vibrates the three smallest bones in your body:
first, the hammer, then ...
