1. How much of downtown boston was original land? Where did the rest come from?
Hatshy [7]

History of Boston is described below.

Explanation:

  • When workers cut down Copp's hill the only thing they left untouched was the old three-acre burying ground. The city built a retaining wall around the graveyard to prevent it from eroding. In 1814, the Boston and Roxbury Mill Corporation built the Boston & Roxbury Mill Dam across the back bay
  • Originally called Tremontaine for the three hills in the area, the Puritans later changed the settlement's name to Boston, after the town in Lincolnshire, England, from which many Puritans originated.
  • South Boston, which was front and center in the battle, is no longer that close-knit old school “tough-as-nail” Irish Catholic enclave. “Southie,” as it is still fondly referred to, houses the world today flaunting some of the best restaurants and expensive housing in the city
  • Boston was founded in 1630 by English Puritans fleeing religious persecution. On 29 March 1630 a fleet of 11 ships carrying 700 people sailed from England to Massachusetts. They were led by John Winthrop (1588-1649). At first the people settled at Charlestown, which had been founded the year before.
  • Much of Boston's coastline is man-made land. The original shoreline, from 1630, is visible in dark green on this map. Land made between 1630 and 1995 is light green.Boston is a safe city, but as with any major city, you should take the usual safety precautions. Stay in well-populated areas, travel with others, especially at night, and keep track of your belongings. The tourist areas in Boston are generally safe, but some areas deserve mention.

Why does the rate of heart beat increases during exercise?
kherson [118]

During exercises, our muscles needed energy for contractions. The heart pumps more rapidly and more powerfully during this time for a few reasons.


First, more oxygen and nutrients like glucose can be transported to the heart. Muscle cells uses oxygen and glucose for aerobic respiration to generate energy.


Secondly, more carbon dioxide and waste can be transported away from the muscles. Waste products from aerobic respiration includes carbon dioxide or water etc. The faster the heart pumps, the faster the blood gets transported so more waste can be carried away.


Thirdly, lactic acid can be carried away too. When oxygen supply is not enough, the cells undergo anaerobic respiration to generate energy. This type of respiration does not require oxygen, but a waste product called lactic acid is produced. Lactic acid must be carried away from cells because they're harmful. Therefore, the faster the heart pumps, the more lactic acid gets carried away.


Last but not least, heat can be carried away too. Part of the energy generated is turned into heat. Therefore, in order to help us cool down, blood travels fast to carry heat away from the heat generating muscle cells.

Rank the following ecosystems in order of their net primary productivity, from lowest to highest:________. a) open ocean. b) tro
katrin [286]

desert, open ocean, lake, tropical rain forest

Explanation:

The net primary productivity tells us about how productive an ecosystem is. It is usually derived by the difference between the amount of carbon dioxide that producers used to the amount they release during their cellular respiration.

  • The rainforest is the biome with the highest amount of net productivity.
  • The amount of sunlight and organic matter used up during photosynthesis is very large.
  • The tropical rain forest receives the highest amount of sunlight because the sun is overhead here.
  • This provides energy to drive photosynthetic process in the presence of other available resources.
  • Deserts are bare and lacks plants due to the extreme conditions here not favorable to life.
  • The open ocean productivity is restricted to the photic zone where light is only able to reach
  • Lakes are highly productive ecosystems.
