Earths Crust Earths Magnetic
1,642 wordster> What is the evidence for our knowledge of the internal structure of the Earth? As we enter the twenty first century we are beginning to learn more and more about the composition of the Earth. Early predictions have thrown up some rather strange and peculiar thoughts as to what is making up our Earth, but now days scientists can be confident that the Earth is made up of what they think. As from experiments and other sources of information a picture to what is really down there is b...

4,346 wordsEARTH The Earth, mans home, is a planet. The Earth has special characteristics, and these are important to man. It is the only planet known to have the right temperature and the right atmosphere to support the kind of environments and natural resources in which plants and man and other animals can survive. This fact is so important to man that he has developed a special science called ecology, which deals with the dependence of all living things will continue to survive on the planet. Many milli...

Earths Magnetic Magnetic Field
1,778 wordsThe Role of Magnetic Stimuli in Animals In as early in the year 1855 Minddendorf proposed the idea of broad front, one-direction migration also suggested a means of orientation, that birds were capable of detecting the magnetic poles and of maintaining their bearing therefrom. Since then many similar ideas have continued to pop up at random intervals (Carthy 56). An immediate difficulty is the lack of any structure or tissue that could possibly react to the magnetic field. In the year 1948, the ...

Oceanic Crust Continental Drift
780 wordsPlate tectonics are a relatively new theory that has revolutionized the way geologists think about the Earth. According to the theory, the surface of the Earth is broken into large plates. The size and position of these plates change over time. The hypothesis of continental drift was largely developed by the German Alfred Wegener The edges of these plates, where they move against each other, are sites of intense geologic activity, such as earthquakes, volcanoes, and mountain building. Plate tect...

Earths Magnetic Magnetic Field
1,384 wordsINTRODUCTION: The magnetic south and north poles of the earth create magnetic field lines in which these bacteria travel. These bacteria were found to contain iron, which is comparable to ferromagnet's or magnetite produced synthetically. This iron is found to line up to the magnetic field lines similar to how a compass works. Many of the principles of magnetism can be explained by observing these bacteria. NARRATIVE: The physical principles behind magnetic bacteria rely on the earths magnetic f...
