Stuart Cove began offering shark interaction dives in the Bahamas in the 1980s, which grew his dive business exponentially and increased environmental awareness of sharks. His advocacy led to complete shark protection laws in the Bahamas. Other dive businesses profiled also integrated conservation measures that enhanced their businesses while protecting the environment, such as educating students about sharks and marine debris in Costa Rica and conducting regular cleanups in Bonaire. By adopting conservation, dive businesses can nurture environmental stewardship among divers and grow their customer base as ecotourism increases in popularity.
This document discusses the structure and function of DNA. It begins by stating that all life is composed of amino acids arranged in predetermined patterns, and that DNA determines this pattern. It then explains that DNA is composed of nucleotides, which contain phosphate, sugar, and a nitrogenous base. The structure of DNA is a double helix, with the bases on the inside bonded via complementary base pairing.
DNA contains the genetic code for organisms and codes for genes, though some DNA is considered junk. During transcription, DNA is used as a template to create messenger RNA through the process of RNA polymerase copying the DNA sequence. The mRNA copy is then used to produce proteins in the cytoplasm through translation since proteins are synthesized outside the nucleus where DNA is located.
The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive functioning. Exercise causes chemical changes in the brain that may help boost feelings of calmness, happiness and focus.
This document contains short descriptions of several students from the 3rd E class. It provides key details about each student's personality, including that some are friendly, funny, good friends or dancers. It also mentions some of their interests like taking photos, drawing, sports or having many friends. The document aims to characterize different classmates in a few sentences each to highlight their qualities.
DNA and RNA have distinct but related structures and functions. DNA contains the genetic instructions used in the replication, transcription, and translation of life. It is a double-stranded molecule located in the nucleus with sugars deoxyribose, phosphates, and complementary nitrogenous bases adenine, guanine, cytosine, thymine. RNA is also made of sugars, phosphates, and bases but contains ribose rather than deoxyribose and substitutes uracil for thymine. The three main types of RNA are mRNA, tRNA, and rRNA which have different roles in protein synthesis. DNA replication uses DNA as a template to produce identical copies of DNA that are passed on to daughter cells. Transcription produces mRNA

This document provides instructions for using an iTouch and Google Calendar for classroom organization and teaching financial literacy. It describes how to set up a Google account and sync the iTouch calendar. Changes made in iCal or on the iTouch will automatically sync to Google Calendar. The stocks app on the iTouch can be used to look up company information and interactively view graphs. A sample financial literacy unit plan is outlined that uses the stocks app to have students research companies and decide where to hypothetically invest $10,000. The iTouch provides a portable way to access calendars and company information.
Jim Warren is an artist known for his fantastical works. His paintings feature surreal dreamlike scenes filled with imaginative creatures in vivid, lush landscapes. Warren draws inspiration from his dreams and aims to transport viewers to magical worlds through his vividly detailed yet whimsical paintings.
Les invito a una barbacoa fin de semana BY =JULIAN Q.GJulian quintero
El documento es una invitación a una barbacoa en una casa de vacaciones improvisada en una isla. La casa es sencilla y el anfitrión pide traer lo necesario. Ofrece transporte en bote y actividades como pesca, snorkel y masajes. Pide confirmar la asistencia e indicar el número de personas.
EWC End of the Semester Report, Spring 2010LASC EWC
- The EWC has seen a huge increase in student attendance and enrollment since spring 2009 as instructors are emphasizing the importance of the lab more. Average daily attendance has nearly doubled from 54 to 91 students.
- Student surveys show that more students this semester feel the staff is helpful, their writing skills have improved, and the assignments are easy to understand.
- However, most students responded that the lab hours need to be extended as the current 27 hours per week are the lowest among local colleges and do not accommodate all students' schedules.
Double integrals are used to calculate properties of planar laminas such as mass, center of mass, and moments of inertia by integrating a density function over a region. The inner integral is evaluated first, treating the other variable as a constant. Properties include:
1) Total mass by double integrating the density function over the region.
2) Center of mass coordinates by taking moments about axes and dividing by total mass.
3) Moments of inertia by double integrating the distance squared from an axis times the density.
Just-In-Time (JIT) Manufacturing is a philosophy of continuous improvement that emphasizes prevention over correction and demands company-wide focus on quality. It originated in post-war Japan to address declining market share in automotive. The main principles include total quality management, production management based on a pull system with small lot sizes, close supplier relationships, low inventory, and human resource involvement. JIT aims to eliminate waste through continuous improvement.
