    Australia’s involvement in the First World War began in the 1914, its actions representative of its support of Britain’s declaration of war. This unity is implied by the amount of men who felt duty bound to serve Britain’s interest, corresponding to 40% of men enlisted who are aged between 18 and 44. Of these amounts, 330000 men went abroad, whilst 60000 passed away and another 150000 returning with injuries (Dyster & Meredith 2012, p.96). Hence, the absence of these men during the period of Wold War One itself signifies major impacts to the Australian economy, coming in the form of a decrease in labour supply, thus triggering changes in the economy to attempt to replace these shortage. This dilemma is further compounded with the difficulties Australia experienced in its trade agreements during the war and its attempt to resolve it through import substitution, which however, triggers both positive and negative changes, hence altering the structure of the economy. Furthermore, the return of the soldiers from war, and Australia’s attempts to reabsorb them to the community also causes difficulties for Australia, which are compounded by the lack of finances involved to act upon this plan, hence straining Australia’s debt.…

    The use of implied powers changed the division of power that existed before they existed because it essentially granted the division of powers more power. Implied powers are those that are not specifically stated in the constitution, but it is assumed that if ever needed, Congress or the Supreme Court has the power to add in a rule or law when necessary. Since the Founding Father’s could not anticipate every possible problem that would arise in the following decades and centuries, they had no way of creating a rule for every possible outcome. So they incorporated the enumerated powers, or the implied powers, in the event a situation did occur that was not explicity stated and covered in the Constitution. The addition of implied powers in turn made the central, or federal government more powerful because it gives them the ability to address certain, and or unusual circumstances. Implied powers also give the federal government more power than state government because the federal government is able to rule on each different scenario at their own descretion, as long as it is justifiable. The court case that allowed the use of implied powers was McCulloch versus Maryland in 1819. Basically, the case was wheather or not the government had the right to create a second natioanl bank, and that the state of Maryland could not tax the bank. It is no where blatently stated in the Constitution that have the the government just had to create a second national bank, but with the use of implied powers under the necessary and proper clause, it was deemed as justifiable.…

    While penguins are technically birds, they have many distinct attributes that set them apart from the much of the animal class Aves. Penguins thrive in many different climates including tropical and temperate zones. These animals can survive temperatures below -100 degrees Fahrenheit. Antarctic penguins have a three-tiered insulation system. First, they have feathers that act like tiles on a roof, with longer feathers overlapping smaller, fluffier ones. In essence, water-proofing. Beneath that, penguins have a thick layer of fat that provides an extra buffer from the elements and retains body heat. A third special adaptation in the penguin that isn't found in most birds is its ability to recycle its own body heat. Blood flows pre-cooled to the extremities and warmed going to the heart. In the harshest wind-chilled conditions, penguins will huddle together in massive clusters. Most birds don't have a thick layer of fat or longer feathers on top of fluffier feathers. Many species have to find shelter at night, unlike penguins. Only 50 types of birds can live in the Antarctic and far fewer dare to breed there like the penguin. Most penguins spend upwards of 80 percent of their life in water, preferring colder, nutrient laden coasts. Because they only eat seafood, penguins have evolved sharp, hooked beaks to snare fish. They also have a sticky tongue that helps them capture slippery prey. Penguins are superb swimmers because they have webbed feet that serve as diving fins. Their wings have evolved into flippers. Their hydrodynamic bodies allows them to reach speeds of up to 15 mph. Penguins can hold their breath for long periods, allowing them to dive deep for prey. While 150 species of the bird family Antedate specialize in the water, penguins are the fastest and most adept underwater. Penguins live in colonies of up to 1 million but they don't necessarily need protection in numbers.…
