Tropical rainforests exist along the equator with warm temperatures and heavy rainfall year-round. These dense forests have tall, leafy trees that block sunlight from reaching the ground and support an ecosystem of ferns, bamboo, chameleons and toucans. Tropical rainforests have different layers and the chameleon uses camouflage by changing its color to protect itself from predators within the dense forest environment.

The wonders of the rainforest vft
The document discusses the two main types of rainforests - tropical and temperate. Tropical rainforests are located in tropical regions and have an average temperature of 77F year-round. Temperate rainforests experience seasons and cooler average temperatures of 50F. Both receive high annual rainfall. The rainforest is divided into four layers - emergent, canopy, understory, and forest floor. Each layer contains different types of plants and animals adapted to the available sunlight and conditions in that area of the rainforest.
Gallery: types of habitat
Forest habitats contain many trees, desert areas are dry but full of life, and the tundra biome is the coldest environment while savannas cover half of Africa and oceans cover most of the Earth's surface.
Natural vegetation e learning
The document describes different types of natural vegetation and their relationship to climate. It discusses three main types of natural vegetation - forests, grasslands, and deserts - and provides details on their characteristics and climatic requirements. Specific vegetation types like tropical rainforests, deciduous forests, coniferous forests, tropical grasslands, and deserts are examined in terms of their distribution and defining climatic conditions.
Taiga
The taiga is the largest biome and is known as a coniferous forest, which is a cold forest. It has long, cold winters and short, warm summers with moderate rainfall. Common plants include spruce and fir, while common animals are black bears and moose, which have adaptations like thick fur and color changing to survive in the taiga environment.
6 tundra biome
The tundra biome has very little rainfall and long, icy cold winters with short, cool summers. Plants in the tundra grow close to the ground and have shallow roots to access melting snow. Animals like caribou and musk ox have thick fur and layers of fat to stay warm, and many hibernate through the winter, while birds migrate south.
Forest
This document discusses two types of forests: tropical rainforests and temperate forests. Tropical rainforests have a hot, wet climate all year and receive more rain than any other ecosystem. They are home to tall trees and many animal species. Temperate forests experience four seasons and are located in parts of the US, Canada, Europe, China, and Japan. They receive less rainfall than tropical rainforests and are characterized by trees that lose their leaves seasonally.
Tropical rain forest
The tropical rainforest has year-round warm temperatures between 72-93 degrees Fahrenheit with high rainfall between 50 to 260 inches per year. It contains many unique plant and animal species like bromeliads, carnivorous plants, orchids, epiphytes, spider monkeys, toucans, poison arrow frogs, and sloths. However, over half of the world's original rainforests have been destroyed by human activity such as logging, agriculture, and development which is threatening many species and contributing to climate change.
Chapter 14new Notes
The document summarizes key topics about the ocean floor covered in Chapter 14, including the different regions of the ocean floor and features found in each region. It discusses features such as mid-ocean ridges, trenches, seamounts, guyots, continental shelves, slopes, and rises. It also covers types of seafloor sediments and resources that can be obtained from the seafloor like oil, natural gas, and minerals.

Thermal energy
Thermal energy is the energy of moving particles that causes heat. Heat is the transfer of thermal energy between objects when they are at different temperatures. The document discusses conductors and insulators - materials that easily allow heat to pass through them are conductors like metals and materials that do not are insulators like rubber, wood, and paper. Common examples of conductors and insulators are provided.
Air and water resistance
The document discusses different forces exerted by water and air. There are two main forces of water: upthrust force, which causes objects to float, and water resistance, which pushes against moving objects in water. Air also exerts forces, including air resistance, which slows down moving objects by pushing against them, with larger objects experiencing greater resistance. Air resistance can be useful, as seen with parachutes which use the force of air to slow a falling object.
Balanced unbalanced ,gravity ,friction
1) Forces cause objects to move or change their motion. Applying an unbalanced force makes an object start moving, while balanced or cancelled out forces will not cause motion.
2) Friction is a type of force that opposes motion when two surfaces are touching, causing moving objects to slow down and stop. The amount of friction depends on the surfaces and how rough or smooth they are.
3) Mass and gravity determine an object's weight, with heavier objects having greater weight. Weight can be measured using a force meter or spring scale.
Magnetic and non magnetic
The document discusses magnetic and non-magnetic materials. Magnetic materials include metals like iron, nickel, cobalt and steel that are attracted to magnets. Non-magnetic materials include aluminum, silver, gold, paper, glass, plastic, rubber and wood that are not attracted to magnets. It provides examples of different objects and whether they are magnetic or non-magnetic when tested with a magnet.
Magnet use
To safely handle magnets, wear protective eyewear and gloves to avoid injury from breaking or flying pieces. Handle magnets gently by slowly bringing them together and avoiding dropping or banging them, which can reduce their strength. Store magnets away from devices, tapes, cards, and screens where magnetic fields can cause damage or distortion. Also, keep magnets dry and do not heat them.
Magnet type + story
Magnets have been known since ancient times when a shepherd named Magnus discovered that an unusual black rock had the power to pull iron objects like his staff and sandal nails towards it. This became known as the first recorded discovery of a magnet. Different types of magnets exist, with some able to attract or repel other magnets depending on which poles (north or south) are placed close together. Magnets have been studied for centuries but still hold mysterious properties about the forces they exert.
Magnet 3
Magnets are made of iron, nickel, cobalt, or steel. To preserve a bar magnet long term, you should store it with another magnet to maintain its magnetic field. When a magnet breaks, its magnetic field also breaks into smaller fields in each broken piece. An electromagnet generates a magnetic field through a coil of wire when electric current passes through; placing an iron core inside the coil strengthens the magnetic field. Materials can be magnetic, like iron, cobalt, and nickel, or non-magnetic, like aluminum, copper, glass, plastic, and wood.
Magnet 2
The document discusses the properties of iron and magnets at the particle level. It asks questions about what iron particles look like, how iron is attracted to magnets, what magnets are made of, and how to preserve a bar magnet long-term. It prompts the reader to draw diagrams of magnetic fields with arrows and labels to illustrate the alignment of iron particles when brought near a magnet.
Series and parallel
The document discusses series and parallel circuits. It provides examples of series circuits with one path and defines that if one light bulb is removed, the circuit is open and other bulbs will not light. Parallel circuits are defined as having more than one path, and if one light bulb is removed, the current passes through another path and the other bulb will still light. The document draws examples of both series and parallel circuits.
Safety rules
This document provides safety tips for handling electricity, advising to not play with electric sockets or plugs, not to touch electricity with wet hands, and to avoid poking fingers or other objects into electric sockets, toasters, or other appliances.
Conductor and insulator
This document discusses series and parallel circuits and the properties of conductors and insulators. It explains that in a series circuit, if one bulb is removed the other bulb will not light, while in a parallel circuit the other bulbs will still light if one is removed. It provides examples of materials that are conductors, like silver, copper and aluminum, and insulators, like plastic, rubber and glass. It then has questions to determine if examples provided are conductors or insulators.
Circuit (symbols,dimmer and brighter)
This document discusses the basics of electricity and electrical circuits. It explains that electricity is the flow of electric charges through a wire, just as water flows through a river. An electrical circuit needs three main components - a power source like a battery, a load such as a light bulb, and wires or other connectors to complete the circuit. It also discusses concepts like open versus closed circuits, and how changing components like batteries or bulbs affects brightness. Symbols are introduced for common circuit elements. Worksheets are included to have the reader draw sample circuits.
Atom,static electricity
The document discusses the basics of static electricity and atoms. It explains that atoms are made up of positively and negatively charged particles that attract or repel depending on their charges. Static electricity occurs when objects come into contact and transfer electrons, resulting in an imbalance of charges. Examples given include rubbing a balloon or ruler to build up an excess of electrons, causing it to stick to other surfaces. Lightning is also described as a large-scale discharge of built up static charges between storm clouds and the ground.
Reversible and irreversible change
The document discusses reversible and irreversible changes. Reversible changes can go forward and backward, such as folding paper or melting butter. Irreversible changes cannot go backward, like burning wood or rusting iron. Examples are provided of changes that are reversible, like freezing orange juice or dissolving salt in water, and those that are irreversible, including burning a matchstick or toasting bread.
Reversible and Irreversible changes
This document discusses the differences between physical and chemical changes and provides examples of evidence of irreversible chemical changes. Specifically, it notes that physical changes are reversible while chemical changes are irreversible. It then lists four main types of evidence that can indicate an irreversible chemical change has occurred: 1) a change in color, 2) a change in scent, 3) the presence of bubbles or fizzing, and 4) heat being released or absorbed during the change. Examples like iron rusting and silver tarnishing are given as illustrations of changes in color, while toasting marshmallows represents a change in scent.
Food pyramid wiki
The food pyramid outlines the major food groups including carbohydrates, vitamins and minerals, protein, and oils. It recommends filling your plate with fruits, vegetables, dairy, and meat to create a balanced meal and get the necessary nutrients. A balanced meal incorporates foods from all the major food groups.
Teeth wiki
There are three main types of teeth: incisors, canines, and molars. Incisors are flat teeth located at the front of the mouth that cut food. Canines are sharp, pointed teeth on the sides of the mouth after the incisors that hold and tear food. Molars are flat, wide teeth located at the back of the mouth that grind and chew food. Humans have two sets of teeth, milk (baby) teeth and permanent teeth. Milk teeth number 20 total while permanent teeth number 32 total. Bacteria in the mouth feed on sugar from leftover food and produce acid that causes tooth decay if plaque is not removed by brushing.
Matter
Matter is anything that has mass and takes up space. There are three main states of matter: solids, liquids, and gases. The state that matter exists in depends on how closely or loosely packed the particles are and the strength of attraction between the particles. Solids have a definite shape and volume, liquids have a definite volume but take the shape of their container, and gases have indefinite shapes and volumes. Matter can change between states, such as ice melting into water when heat is applied, changing the phase from solid to liquid.
Teeth 2
This document describes the different types of teeth and their functions. It discusses the four types of teeth: incisors, which cut food; canines, which tear and hold food; premolars, which have a grinding function; and molars, which grind and chew food. It also notes that humans have two sets of teeth - milk (primary) teeth when young, which are later replaced by permanent adult teeth starting around age 6 or 7 years old.
Teeth 1
Teeth have the function of breaking down food into pieces small enough to swallow. There are different types of teeth suited to specific functions, such as incisors for biting, canines for tearing, and premolars and molars for grinding food. Teeth break down food through biting, tearing, and grinding motions.
Candidate young stellar objects in the S-cluster: Kinematic analysis of a sub...
Context. The observation of several L-band emission sources in the S cluster has led to a rich discussion of their nature. However, a definitive answer to the classification of the dusty objects requires an explanation for the detection of compact Doppler-shifted Brγ emission. The ionized hydrogen in combination with the observation of mid-infrared L-band continuum emission suggests that most of these sources are embedded in a dusty envelope. These embedded sources are part of the S-cluster, and their relationship to the S-stars is still under debate. To date, the question of the origin of these two populations has been vague, although all explanations favor migration processes for the individual cluster members. Aims. This work revisits the S-cluster and its dusty members orbiting the supermassive black hole SgrA* on bound Keplerian orbits from a kinematic perspective. The aim is to explore the Keplerian parameters for patterns that might imply a nonrandom distribution of the sample. Additionally, various analytical aspects are considered to address the nature of the dusty sources. Methods. Based on the photometric analysis, we estimated the individual H−K and K−L colors for the source sample and compared the results to known cluster members. The classification revealed a noticeable contrast between the S-stars and the dusty sources. To fit the flux-density distribution, we utilized the radiative transfer code HYPERION and implemented a young stellar object Class I model. We obtained the position angle from the Keplerian fit results; additionally, we analyzed the distribution of the inclinations and the longitudes of the ascending node. Results. The colors of the dusty sources suggest a stellar nature consistent with the spectral energy distribution in the near and midinfrared domains. Furthermore, the evaporation timescales of dusty and gaseous clumps in the vicinity of SgrA* are much shorter ( 2yr) than the epochs covered by the observations (≈15yr). In addition to the strong evidence for the stellar classification of the D-sources, we also find a clear disk-like pattern following the arrangements of S-stars proposed in the literature. Furthermore, we find a global intrinsic inclination for all dusty sources of 60 ± 20◦, implying a common formation process. Conclusions. The pattern of the dusty sources manifested in the distribution of the position angles, inclinations, and longitudes of the ascending node strongly suggests two different scenarios: the main-sequence stars and the dusty stellar S-cluster sources share a common formation history or migrated with a similar formation channel in the vicinity of SgrA*. Alternatively, the gravitational influence of SgrA* in combination with a massive perturber, such as a putative intermediate mass black hole in the IRS 13 cluster, forces the dusty objects and S-stars to follow a particular orbital arrangement.

The cost of acquiring information by natural selection
This is a short talk that I gave at the Banff International Research Station workshop on Modeling and Theory in Population Biology. The idea is to try to understand how the burden of natural selection relates to the amount of information that selection puts into the genome.
It's based on the first part of this research paper:

Describing and Interpreting an Immersive Learning Case with the Immersion Cub...
Current descriptions of immersive learning cases are often difficult or impossible to compare. This is due to a myriad of different options on what details to include, which aspects are relevant, and on the descriptive approaches employed. Also, these aspects often combine very specific details with more general guidelines or indicate intents and rationales without clarifying their implementation. In this paper we provide a method to describe immersive learning cases that is structured to enable comparisons, yet flexible enough to allow researchers and practitioners to decide which aspects to include. This method leverages a taxonomy that classifies educational aspects at three levels (uses, practices, and strategies) and then utilizes two frameworks, the Immersive Learning Brain and the Immersion Cube, to enable a structured description and interpretation of immersive learning cases. The method is then demonstrated on a published immersive learning case on training for wind turbine maintenance using virtual reality. Applying the method results in a structured artifact, the Immersive Learning Case Sheet, that tags the case with its proximal uses, practices, and strategies, and refines the free text case description to ensure that matching details are included. This contribution is thus a case description method in support of future comparative research of immersive learning cases. We then discuss how the resulting description and interpretation can be leveraged to change immersion learning cases, by enriching them (considering low-effort changes or additions) or innovating (exploring more challenging avenues of transformation). The method holds significant promise to support better-grounded research in immersive learning.

Anti-Universe And Emergent Gravity and the Dark Universe
Recent theoretical progress indicates that spacetime and gravity emerge together from the entanglement structure of an underlying microscopic theory. These ideas are best understood in Anti-de Sitter space, where they rely on the area law for entanglement entropy. The extension to de Sitter space requires taking into account the entropy and temperature associated with the cosmological horizon. Using insights from string theory, black hole physics and quantum information theory we argue that the positive dark energy leads to a thermal volume law contribution to the entropy that overtakes the area law precisely at the cosmological horizon. Due to the competition between area and volume law entanglement the microscopic de Sitter states do not thermalise at sub-Hubble scales: they exhibit memory effects in the form of an entropy displacement caused by matter. The emergent laws of gravity contain an additional ‘dark’ gravitational force describing the ‘elastic’ response due to the entropy displacement. We derive an estimate of the strength of this extra force in terms of the baryonic mass, Newton’s constant and the Hubble acceleration scale a0 = cH0, and provide evidence for the fact that this additional ‘dark gravity force’ explains the observed phenomena in galaxies and clusters currently attributed to dark matter.
Signatures of wave erosion in Titan’s coasts
The shorelines of Titan’s hydrocarbon seas trace flooded erosional landforms such as river valleys; however, it isunclear whether coastal erosion has subsequently altered these shorelines. Spacecraft observations and theo-retical models suggest that wind may cause waves to form on Titan’s seas, potentially driving coastal erosion,but the observational evidence of waves is indirect, and the processes affecting shoreline evolution on Titanremain unknown. No widely accepted framework exists for using shoreline morphology to quantitatively dis-cern coastal erosion mechanisms, even on Earth, where the dominant mechanisms are known. We combinelandscape evolution models with measurements of shoreline shape on Earth to characterize how differentcoastal erosion mechanisms affect shoreline morphology. Applying this framework to Titan, we find that theshorelines of Titan’s seas are most consistent with flooded landscapes that subsequently have been eroded bywaves, rather than a uniform erosional process or no coastal erosion, particularly if wave growth saturates atfetch lengths of tens of kilometers.

Microbial interaction
Microorganisms interacts with each other and can be physically associated with another organisms in a variety of ways.
One organism can be located on the surface of another organism as an ectobiont or located within another organism as endobiont.
Microbial interaction may be positive such as mutualism, proto-cooperation, commensalism or may be negative such as parasitism, predation or competition
Types of microbial interaction
Positive interaction: mutualism, proto-cooperation, commensalism
Negative interaction: Ammensalism (antagonism), parasitism, predation, competition
I. Mutualism:
It is defined as the relationship in which each organism in interaction gets benefits from association. It is an obligatory relationship in which mutualist and host are metabolically dependent on each other.
Mutualistic relationship is very specific where one member of association cannot be replaced by another species.
Mutualism require close physical contact between interacting organisms.
Relationship of mutualism allows organisms to exist in habitat that could not occupied by either species alone.
Mutualistic relationship between organisms allows them to act as a single organism.
Examples of mutualism:
i. Lichens:
Lichens are excellent example of mutualism.
They are the association of specific fungi and certain genus of algae. In lichen, fungal partner is called mycobiont and algal partner is called
II. Syntrophism:
It is an association in which the growth of one organism either depends on or improved by the substrate provided by another organism.
In syntrophism both organism in association gets benefits.
Compound A
Utilized by population 1
Compound B
Utilized by population 2
Compound C
utilized by both Population 1+2
Products
In this theoretical example of syntrophism, population 1 is able to utilize and metabolize compound A, forming compound B but cannot metabolize beyond compound B without co-operation of population 2. Population 2is unable to utilize compound A but it can metabolize compound B forming compound C. Then both population 1 and 2 are able to carry out metabolic reaction which leads to formation of end product that neither population could produce alone.
Examples of syntrophism:
i. Methanogenic ecosystem in sludge digester
Methane produced by methanogenic bacteria depends upon interspecies hydrogen transfer by other fermentative bacteria.
Anaerobic fermentative bacteria generate CO2 and H2 utilizing carbohydrates which is then utilized by methanogenic bacteria (Methanobacter) to produce methane.
ii. Lactobacillus arobinosus and Enterococcus faecalis:
In the minimal media, Lactobacillus arobinosus and Enterococcus faecalis are able to grow together but not alone.
The synergistic relationship between E. faecalis and L. arobinosus occurs in which E. faecalis require folic acid
