<span>False. Any area that is able to effectively absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere can be considered a carbon sink. Some other examples can include farms, oceans, and savannas can fit under these definitions. When the land or water is able to take in more CO2 than it takes out, it can become a sink.</span>

What Is The Best Activity You Can Play In The Forest/Woods While Protecting The Forest?
Gnesinka [82]
I used some information from a website to help me but I made sure nothing was copied and I put in my own words = )

Here are a few games that you could play in the woods: Evading capture, Beat the Wind, and Camouflage! - Here are my descriptions!

Evading Capture is a very fun game. It requires 10 people to play with and some cooperation. The first thing that you must do is pick 1 person to be a predator while the rest of the 9 are prey. (This is like a tag game). The predator gives the prey a few minutes to hide it, up to you how long, and then he predator starts looking for its victims. When the predator finds a succulent piece of prey to eat, he/she must tag the prey and then the person who was caught is out from the game until the next round. After 8 of the 9 people are found then the last person who was not found and is still standing gets to be the predator for the next round!

Beat the Wind is also a fun game but it requires a lot of patience. And when I say a lot I mean a lot. Fun fact: You can't really pay this game until it is autumn! (For future reference). Basically, you and your friends just stand outside in a dense part of the forest when it is windy and loose leaves flying through the sky. The requirements for this game is that you and another person must pick one spot to stand. Then you have to wait until a magical leaf comes flying to you run to the spot were you think its going to land. And I know what you are thinking: "Why can't I just let it fall and scoop it up at the last second?" Honestly I have no idea, but don't do it. The winner is however collected the most leaves total in some amount of time.

Ahh, Camouflage. This is similar to evading capture but it requires more thinking and a person who has to be it, not to mention a good number of friends. The person who is it has to close their eyes and count to 10 while the rest of the people run and find a place, Important:  It has to be a hiding place were the person hiding can see the person who is it, like a log or a bush and even a tree!

Hope you have a great time in the woods with your friends family and prey...
Oh, yes. I recommend Evading Capture as: The best game to play! = )

How does birth of Athenian male differ from birth of spartan male
Evgesh-ka [11]
Spartans were born and raised differently from the Athenians. Athenians were more based upon knowledge and the Spartans were based on war. Literally Spartans were forced to fight and hunt for themselves at very young ages. IF there were any defects on a Spartan, he would be killed immediately, Athenians were more lenient on defects.
