WATER CYCLE Water Cycle‚ also known as hydrologic cycle‚ is a process that is constantly recycling the Earth ’s supply of water. This is important because humans‚ animals‚ and plants all need water to survive. It is controlled by the sun‚ which produces energy in the form of heat. This heat energy causes the water in the world ’s oceans‚ lakes‚ etc. to warm and evaporate. As the water is heated‚ it changes its phase from liquid to gas. This gas is called water vapor and this process is called

Topic 9 - The Carbon Cycle Aspects of the carbon cycle are similar to the hydrologic cycle because both are good examples of “Interactions between the systems". Textbook – topic not covered in text. http://www.windows2universe.org/earth/ The Carbon Cycle Neglecting the small amount of carbon (C) added to Earth by meteorite impacts‚ there is a fixed amount of carbon on Earth (~800‚000 billion tonnes). All living things are made of carbon but carbon is also a part of the ocean‚ air‚ and

CYCLE OF THE INFANTRYMAN by LCPL BACH‚ GEORGE The Cycle of the Infantryman applies to fire and maneuver for a combat element. For example purposes the buddy team will be our combat element and a static enemy position (e.g. bunker) will be the target. The phases of the cycle are SHOOT‚ ASSESS‚ MOVE‚ AND KILL. The cycle may loop until there is no longer an enemy threat or until target position is gained. The following is a break down of each phase. -SHOOT During this phase of the cycle a base of

Elena Chen CH 221-227 November 3rd‚ 2009 Lab Report #3: Copper Cycle Abstract: The purpose of the experiment is to cycle solid copper through a series of five reactions. At different stages of the cycle‚ copper was present in different forms. First reaction involves reaction between the copper and nitric acid‚ and copper changed from elemental state to an aqueous. The second reaction converted the aqueous Cu2+ into the solid copper (2) hydroxide. In the third reaction Cu(OH)2 decomposed into

Carbon Cycle Living organisms are significant in the recycling of numerous elements contained in an ecosystem. One of the elements is carbon. Carbon is nonmetal‚ forms over ten million different compounds‚ found in minerals‚ oceans‚ and is the main component of biological compounds. So how do living organisms and their biochemical reactions contribute to the recycling of carbon? Carbon moves through the ecosystem in a cycle‚ in which the living organisms take and release

What is reflective learning? Reflective learning emphasises that learning derives from our experiences as well as the knowledge that we gain from studying. It involves applying knowledge to experiences to create new learning. Reflective learning is also termed experiential learning and is often associated with work-based learning. In HE reflective learning is used to enable you to assess your strengths and weaknesses and identifying areas of study that you want to develop further. This is also a

THE ROCK CYCLE ● ● ● ● There are three main types of rocks: igneous‚ sedimentary‚ and metamorphic. Each of these types of rocks are formed in different ways and each type of rock can be changed into the other types of rock. This process is called the Rock Cycle. The rock cycle is the process that makes and recycles rocks. IGNEOUS ROCKS ● ● ● ● ● ● Igneous rocks are formed from magma. Magma cools and solidifies into rock. When igneous rocks are exposed on the surface‚ time and weather break the

The Cell Cycle Mitosis: the process by which cells reproduce themselves‚ resulting in daughter cells that contain the same amount of genetic material as the parent cell. Interphase Prophase Metaphase Anaphase Telophase Cytokinesis Cell Division Occurs in a series of stages of phases Interphase occurs before mitosis begins Chromosomes are copied (# doubles) Chromosomes appear as threadlike coils (chromatin) at the start‚ but each chromosome and its copy(sister chromosome) change to sister
