Between 1962 and 1971, the United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) channeled the Kissimmee River and created a 30-foot deep, 300-foot wide, 56 mile long drainage canal (C-38). This project converted 44% of the floodplain to pasture, draining approximately 31,000 acres of wetlands. Before channelization, the River was a haven for wildlife, including at least 39 species of fish and 38 species of water birds.
Kissimmee River Restoration began in 1992 and has been the most successful ecosystem restoration initiative to date. By re-channelizing the River to replicate its natural paths, birds and other wildlife responded more quickly than anticipated and demonstrated the resiliency of nature. This success has been used all over the world to justify the value of ecosystem restoration. When Kissimmee River Restoration is completed in 2015, more than 40 square miles of the River-floodplain ecosystem will be restored, including almost 20,000 acres of wetlands and 44 miles of historic river channel.

I will get back to your question in a moment pls wait I will answer it thankyou for your time
<span>The nurse conducting wound care should choose a dressing that
keeps the periwound skin dry and the surgical wound bed moist to contribute
healing. The dressing used for wound care should control exudate from the
wound, but it should not desiccate the wound bed. There must be a pressure in
application while cleaning the periwound and wound may deepend the wound bed. Using
sterile normal saline and a sterile gauze to clean the surgical wound reduces
the incidences of infection.</span>

Explanation:
The very primitive and early microorganisms on the earth's surface were protobionts. Protobionts are cell-like microscopic structures, and they are made up of organic and inorganic molecules present in a lipid bilayer membrane. The layers of the lipid membranes were folded into bilayers and transformed into a bubble shape when placed in water. These membranes were selectively permeable and also observed shrinkage and swelling in osmotic conditions. Protobionts also possess the characteristics of reproduction.
