Why did Bryson consider his Appalachian Trail map useless?

Biology

The lack of detail and scaling makes the Appalachian trail map useless. An evidence coming from the story is it has a scale of 1:100,000 which compresses the places, the routes, trails of the real world into a mere centimeter in the map.

Identy three advantages and three disadvantages of bioplastics
swat32

Explanation:

<em><u>Advantages of bioplastics</u></em>

1.Less oil is used to produce petrochemical (oil-based) plastics which pose a great risk to the environment.

2.The common bioplastics can be injection molded and shaped to take the same form as traditional thermoplastics. In some cases, the bioplastics are stronger and lighter, too, so they are not necessarily only suitable for very niche applications.

3.Bioplastics are more marketable, for example, their usage may improve the value-add of a product through a green marketing campaign. After all, studies have shown that ‘80% of European customers want to buy products with a minimal impact on the environment,’ so bioplastics may represent a useful argument for brands.

<em><u>Disadvantages of bioplastics</u></em>

1.First, bioplastics are generally NOT cost-competitive compared to their oil-based counterparts. They are generally two or three times more expensive than the major conventional plastics such as PE or PET, and their production is plagued by low yields and being expensive. This disadvantage should be less acute when manufacturing plants become larger and benefit from economies of scale. A good example is Braskem’s 200,000-tonne bio polyethylene plant (equivalent to about 20% of the world’s current bioplastics production).

2.There is a concern that bioplastics based on terrestrial crops could harm food supplies; however, new innovations using food waste could be helpful in this regard and the concerns would seem to be unfounded as: ‘Perhaps 300,000 hectares are used to grow the crops which the industry processes into plastics. For comparison, this is about 0.02% of the world’s total naturally irrigated area available for cultivation. Even if half the world’s plastics were made from crops grown on food land, the industry would only require 3% of the world’s cultivated acreage.’

3.Crop-based bioplastics require fertile land, water, fertilizers, and are reliant on weather conditions. This means that the supply of raw materials for bioplastics are at risk of natural phenomena, such as drought.

Highlighted artery is right coronary.

<h3>What is artery?</h3>
  • The blood channels that carry oxygen-rich blood from the heart to the body's tissues are called arteries.
  • Each artery consists of three layers and is a muscular tube bordered by smooth tissue.
  • The endothelium, a smooth tissue, lines the intima, the inner layer.
  • Blood is transported from your heart through arteries.
  • All body parts have arteries, with the exception of the hair, nails, epidermis, cartilages, and cornea.
  • In the limbs, they run along the flexor surface, where they are less vulnerable to injury, and the larger trunks typically occupy the most protected positions.
  • A conduit that carries blood from the heart to the body's extremities is called an artery.
  • Every artery, with the exception of the pulmonary artery, carries oxygenated blood.
  • The ascending aorta, aortic arch, thoracic aorta, and abdominal aorta are the four divisions of the aorta, which is the biggest artery in the body.
