George Monbiot is spearheading the Rewilding Movement. The environmentalist and writer is prominent in the platform. He was featured in TED Talk and talked about a large scale conservation approach aiming to restore the lost habitats. Here is an excerpt of his speech where he discusses the lost megafuna:
"What megafauna, you say? Well, every continent had one, apart from Antarctica. When Trafalgar Square in London was excavated, the river gravels there were found to be stuffed with the bones of hippopotamus, rhinos, elephants, hyenas, lions. Yes, ladies and gentlemen, there were lions in Trafalgar Square long before Nelson's Column was built. All these species lived here in the last interglacial period, when temperatures were pretty similar to our own. It's not climate, largely, which has got rid of the world's megafaunas. It's pressure from the human population hunting and destroying their habitats which has done so."
Answer:
Explanation:All cells in the body need to have oxygen and nutrients, and they need their wastes removed. These are the main roles of the circulatory system. The heart, blood and blood vessels work together to service the cells of the body. Using the network of arteries, veins and capillaries, blood carries carbon dioxide to the lungs (for exhalation) and picks up oxygen. From the small intestine, the blood gathers food nutrients and delivers them to every cell.
Blood
Blood consists of:
Red blood cells – to carry oxygen
White blood cells – that make up part of the immune system
Platelets – needed for clotting
Plasma – blood cells, nutrients and wastes float in this liquid.

Answer and Explanation:
Observation is when you take a look at something really closely like examining the object.
For example:
You watch an interesting bird that you've never seen in you're life and decided to study it's feasters. That's called "Observing'.
Answer:
yo- yo diet
Explanation:
Yo-yo diet is a method of cyclic loss of weight gain and loss which is called as yo-yo due to the up and down motion of a yo-yo.
In this type of diet the person who is dieting first looses the weight but then again gains it and then again goes on a diet to loose the gained weight.
In this type of dieting pattern a person initially starves and maintains a hypocaloric diet to enhance the efficiency of food use however, this starvation back fires as when the person starts eating again the tendency to eat more fatty food and high caloric intake increases.
It is important that the phospholipid bilayer is both hydrophobic in the surface and hydrophilic inside to control and manage the incoming organic compounds mainly water from exceeding the needed amount or destablizing the concentration established by the cells.
Hydrophilic is a characteristic of an object which is attracted to water or can synthesize with water. In contrast to hydrophobic like fats, oils and lipis which has a strong aversion and dislike to water molecules.
Transmembrane proteins are found in the plasma membrane. Hydrophilicregions are embedded within the membrane, and Hydrophobic regions project from both surfaces of the bilayer.
Approximately 20-80% of the cell membrane is composed of lipids, the rest, is made up of protein. The lipid layer of the membrane gives it flexible and permeable characteristic. While the protein part assists in transport of molecules it needs to survive.
