walking, running, or in a big pack with it’s family. The pack can have as
much as 36 wolves. Each pack always has two head leaders, one male and the
other female. The pack may hunt and go as far as 130 to 13,000 sq. km.(50
to5,000 sq. miles)—and will defend all that land from intruders. The wolf
would have soft fur over it body to cover it like a jacket to keep it warm
during the winter. The wolf’s eyes are very keen. It can see and hear
very well when hunting for the prey. When you hear .....

Headaches Their Causes And Effects
Number of words: 633 - Number of pages: 3.... interviewing my grandmother, who is a special case Migraine sufferer, she told me that her Migraines began when she was seven. Often in school she would have the classic migraine symptoms- she would see only half of her teacher and bright lights and flashes up to 20 minutes before her Migraine began. These symptoms are called auras and once they are gone the Migraine begins. The Migraine itself can lead to vomiting, slurred speech, makes the sufferer sensitive to light and worsens when there is a lot of noise.
The mechanism is not completely understood, but m .....

Aids 3
Number of words: 1460 - Number of pages: 6.... Europe. Aids was and is spread still through infected hypodermic needles which drug abusers are affected by, but also through transfusion of the blood and its components. And sadly, whenever a mother is infected, the unborn child will almost positively receive the virus before, during, or after the pregnancy.
The viruses which cause AIDS, otherwise known as Human Immunodeficiecy Viruses(HIV) were first discovered in 1983 cooperatively by Dr. Robert Gallo of the National Cancer Institute and Dr. Luc Montagnier of the Pasteur Institute in France. Aids i .....

How Mountains Are Formed
Number of words: 372 - Number of pages: 2.... Himalayas, Appalayas, and the Andes. Fault-block mountains are
formed when one plate pushes or pulls away from another plate. In the Earth,
hot currents of magma or molten rock may well up and crack the weakened
crust above. As the crust cracks, blocks of rock rise or fall forming
Fault-block mountains. Examples of these mountains are the Sierra Nevada in
California and the Grand Tetons in Wyoming. Dome mountains are formed
by the same kind of molten rock that forms Volcanic mountains. As magma
comes up in a crack in the Earth’s crust, it doe .....

Lepus Americanus
Number of words: 381 - Number of pages: 2.... winters of 1981-1982 the experimental grid area lost 77% of its population as compared to 79% and 96% loss for the control grids. Determining the survival rates, the authors used mark-recapture techniques, it was found that probabilities for survivorship in experimental grid (0.79+0.10) were similar to that of control grids (0.71+0.07; 0.56+0.07). Results yielded that extra food intake and cover provided from branches may have not been helpful in increasing survivorship. No differences were measured in reproduction of percentage in adult females caught lact .....

Antibiotic Resistance In Bacteria
Number of words: 704 - Number of pages: 3.... Just because the symptoms have disappeared it does not mean the disease has gone away. Prescribed drugs should be taken until all the medicine is gone so the disease is completely finished. If it is not, then this will just give the bacteria some time to find a way to avoid the effects of the drug.
One antibiotic that will always have a long lasting effect in history is penicillin. This was the first antibiotic ever to be discovered. Alexander Fleming was the person responsible for the discovery in 1928. In his laboratory, he noticed that in some of his bact .....

Global Climate and Species Adaptations
Nome, Alaska is located in ET/Dwd of Koppen climatic classification. Most of this area experiences permafrost condition. Temperature of the warmest month is between 0-10C. Continuous snow covers the land for 8 – 10 months. Total annual PRECIP for Nome is 14.88mm. Daylength varies greatly thr .....

Detection Of Biological Molecules
Number of words: 1477 - Number of pages: 6.... that are in that class. This
lab is broken down into four different sections, the Benedict's test for
reducing sugars, the iodine test for the presence of starch, the Sudan III test
for fatty acids, and the Biuret test for amino groups present in proteins. The
last part of this lab takes an unknown substance and by the four tests,
determine what the substance is.
BENEDICT'S TEST
Introduction: Monosaccharides and disaccharides can be detected because of
their free aldehyde groups, thus, testing positive for the Benedict's test.
Such sugars act as a reducin .....
