Many scientists claim that the facts support the belief that climate change is really happening. By examining scientific researc
h and evidence, you will better understand issues and cut through the myths. As you read in the unit, it is important to carefully consider evidence because there is a lot of information in the public sphere that looks like science but it is not based on the scientific method. For this activity, you are going to do your own research on global warming and sort out the facts for yourself. Do research online to find evidence about global warming. To find reliable information, be sure that you use reliable websites, such as those from government organizations (.gov) or universities (.edu). You can also look at publications that are reputable, such as Popular Science, Discover, or National Geographic. Find a minimum of three sources that provide evidence about global warming.
The global warming controversy concerns the public debate over whether global warming is occurring, how much has occurred in modern times, what has caused it, what its effects will be, whether any action can or should be taken to curb it, and if so what that action should be. In the scientific literature, there is a strong consensus that global surface temperatures have increased in recent decades and that the trend is caused by human-induced emissions of greenhouse gases. No scientific body of national or international standing disagrees with this view,[7] though a few organizations with members in extractive industries hold non-committal positions,[8] and some have attempted to convince the public that climate change is not happening, or if the climate is changing it is not because of human influence, attempting to sow doubt in the scientific consensus.
Peristalsis is simply a series of muscle contractions, these contractions occur in the digestive tract
Peristalsis is also observed in the tubes that connect the kidneys to the bladder
Peristalsis is an automatic and important process which moves: food through the digestive system, urine from the kidneys into the bladder and bile from the gallbladder into the duodenum
Peristalsis is a normal function of the body and can sometimes be felt in the belly (abdomen) as gas moves along
The two main adaptations that desert animals must make are how to deal with lack of water and how to deal with extremes in temperature. Many desert animals avoid the heat of the desert by simply staying out of it as much as possible. ... The kidneys of desert animals concentrate urine, so that they excrete less water. Hope this helps!!
