2. The amount of water on Earth remains constant. But its form is always
changing, from solid to liquid, from liquid to gas, and back again. It
2. moves in a pattern called the water cycle. Heat from the sun causes water
in oceans, lakes and rivers to evaporate into vapor. Further vapor is
given off by plants and animals.

4. Digestive process begins when food enters the mouth. After the mouth
chews and swallows the food, it goes to the throat and then travels to the
esophagus or swallowing tube. Next the esophagus, through a series of
contractions called peristalsis delivers the food to the stomach which
acts as the storage tank. The stomach contains hydrochloric acid and
digestive enzymes which when mix with the food, the food begins to break
down into smaller molecules. Then the food enters the small intestine
where in 90% of the food nutrients have been extracted here and absorbed
by the body. The remaining goes to the large intestine as waste product.
Finally, this waste product is excreted from the body as a solid matter
called stool.

5. Here is a fast and easy recipe for a special mashed sweet potato treat
that serves two people. You begin with peeling two large potatoes and
cooking them in a pot of boiling water. When a fork or knife inserted into
them pulls out easily, you will know they are done. Then take them from
the pot and drain them well. Next, place them in a large mixing bowl and
add two tablespoons of butter. Mash with a potato masher until the lumps
are gone. Meanwhile, in a skillet, melt a tablespoon of butter and add a
bunch of chopped green onions. Cook them for about one minute and mix with
the mash. Then add more butter if desired. Serve and eat!

6. The atmosphere is composed of different levels. The first level, called
troposphere, is the nearest to Earth, about 11km thick. Most clouds and
weather are found in this layer. Next is the stratosphere which is about
11-48km above the Earth’s surface. In it is the ozone layer which absorbs
most of the harmful ultraviolet radiation from the Sun. The mesosphere is
above the stratosphere in which the atmosphere is very rarefied, and the
temperature decreases with altitude. The fourth layer is the thermosphere
which starts at about 55km. the temperature is so hot that it cannot be
measured by a thermometer. Temperature may be thousands of degrees high.
The second to the last is the exosphere, the region beyond the
thermosphere. Finally, the ionosphere overlaps the other layers from above
the Earth. The air id ionized by the Sun’s ultraviolet rays. These ionized
layers affect the transmittance and reflectance of radio waves. All in
all, there are six levels of the Earth atmosphere.
