Answer 2

A wood louse eats dead, decaying leaves is  a situation describes predation. A Predation is the ecological process by which energy is transferred from living animal to living animal based on the behavior of a predator that captures and kills a prey before eating it.

What is Predation?

A predation is the ecological process in which an animal (or an organism) kills and feeds on another animal (or an organism). The animal that kills another animal to feed on is called a “predator“. The one that is killed to be eaten is known as prey.

Sometimes it is critical for the survival of local predator populations. Effective predation requires structural, functional, and behavioral adaptations whose nature depends on the general bodily organization and size of the predator, the kind of predatory strategy adopted, the general environmental conditions where predation is practiced, and the defensive strategies of the available preys.

1. Tell this story: "There it was, finally. Our island. Our very own island. It looked beautiful above the
waves of fog, but there was still one question to be answered: why had they sold it to us for only five
dollars?"​

Answers

Answer:

We were all confused as to why they sold it to us for only 5 dollars. As I was walking onto the beach I saw a strange little cave. It seemed pretty suspicious .. Everyone was in the boat preparing the things so we could build a little house.. As I was about to walk into the cave I heard a noise from behind. It sounded as if someone had screamed.. "Were there other people on this island?" I thought.. After a while there was another scream... Everyone just thought it was a bird.. But I knew that someone was in trouble.. At nightfall I decided to investigate.  I walked into the forest with my flashlight in hand. I saw a bit of smoke in the distance. "Someone is here!!" I thought in my head.. I ran as fast as I could toward the smoke. And when I got there I saw something interesting.. It was a wall that had the names of everyone who lived on the island.. But one name stood out to me! It was my name! I was so confused as to why my name was on here and why we had gotten the island for only 5 dollars.. But then as I was about to turn and leave I saw a figure in the shadows. A very creepy shadow.. As I looked closer it was an old lady... "Hello.. Are you alright?" She said. I nodded. "What are you doing here?" she said. "We live here.. It was sold to us for 5 dollars. Do you know why?" I asked. " Maybe....because legend says that this island is haunted by a family of original ghosts in a cave along side the beach..

Part B.
List three reasons that would discourage people from settling in the Unassigned Territory. You might talk about why the
government is justified in keeping settlers out of the territory. You might also explain why it's not in the best interest of
settlers to migrate. You may need to do some outside research to answer this question fully.

Answers

Answer:

The term "Unassigned Lands" was commonly used in the 1880s when people referred to the last parcel of land in the Indian Territory not "assigned" to one of the many Indian tribes that had been removed to the future state of Oklahoma. Another common, though equally unofficial, name used interchangeably was "the Oklahoma country."

The first popular usage of the term "Unassigned Lands" started in 1879 when mixed-blood Cherokee Elias C. Boudinot published an article in the Chicago Times describing lands in the central part of the Indian Territory that could, and in his opinion, should be settled by white people. The boundaries of his so-called "Unassigned Lands" had been established externally through a series of treaties with Indian tribes. The border on the north was the Cherokee Outlet, created by treaty in 1828. To the south was the Chickasaw Nation, established in 1837. To the west was the Cheyenne and Arapaho Reservation, established in 1867. To the east were the reservations of the Potawatomi (1867), Shawnee (1867), Sac and Fox (1867), Pawnee (1881), and Iowa (1883). Altogether, the Unassigned Lands covered 1,887,796.47 acres, or approximately 2,950 square miles.

Geographically, the Unassigned Lands were crossed by five rivers: the Canadian, the North Canadian, the Cimarron, the Deep Fork, and the Little. Each river valley provided rich bottomland, and the uplands between each river basin offered thinner topsoil good for grazing. Timber was plentiful along the watercourses, but on the uplands it varied from the nearly impenetrable undergrowth of the rolling Cross Timbers on the east to the flat plains and grasslands on the west. It was this transition zone from timber to prairie that attracted the engineers of the Santa Fe Railway Company when they laid their north-south tracks through the Unassigned Lands in 1886.

From 1879 to 1888 a series of highly publicized boomer raids led by adventurers such as David L. Payne and William Couch broke the quiet of the Unassigned Lands. Typically, the boomers eluded cavalry units and staked their claims to land at sites such as the future towns of Oklahoma City and Stillwater, but each time, they were arrested and escorted out of the territory. In large part due to that constant promotion, compounded by the lobbying power of the Santa Fe Railway Company, Congress opened the Unassigned Lands to non-Indian settlement on April 22, 1889. A little more than one year later, on May 2, 1890, Congress created Oklahoma Territory, which concluded the life of the area briefly and unofficially known as the Unassigned Lands.

Answer:

Here are three reasons against settlement:

   The Native American tribes still held an interest in the Unassigned Lands.

   Not all lands were necessarily arable or suited for farming.

   There was no form of government in those territories. So early settlers would have no legal or military presence to protect them.

Answer:

1. People questioned the need for only one church

2. People believed the church was the center of their lives

2. The church power and influence became weaker

Explanation:

The effect of the Great Schism of 1054

1. When the Roman Empire became Christian, during the time of Constantine, it was held that the Church was a universal organ and the Church and Bishop of Rome as its center

However the Eastern Churches maintained the eucharist ecclesiology, whereby within each church, each bishop is Saint Peter's successor

The two ecclesiologies where irreconcilable, forming part of the cause of the East-West schism thereby people questioned the need for only one church

2. As Rome became the center of Catholic authority the universality of people universal ecclesiology was the principle in operation and hence the church God's plan and was the center of peoples lives

The effect of the Great Schism of 1378

3. The Great Schism of 1378 also known as the Western schism was caused by the return of the papacy to Rome with an intention to return to Avignon but due to his passing and the elections that followed, there where two papal courts which culminated to a decline in moral values and the weakening the church's authority.

pros and cons of Antarctica​

Answers

Answer:

pro: If there was a country there it would be impossible to invade.

Explanation:

Con: Its cold


The Pros

Guidelines - There are a lot of guidelines in place to visiting the continent thanks to strict self-regulation of the International Association of Antarctic Tour Operations. These guidelines limit the size of ships, the number of visitors, places that can be visited, and minimizes the impact.

Education - How can we create advocated for a country with no native residents? With little to no visitors? As more people visit Antarctica, especially those with influence, more people are educated on the delicate balance of our global ecosystem. Should any future Antarctica mining or drilling projects come up, there will be more advocates for protecting this special continent. Because there are no local residents to speak for Antarctica, the continent needs loyal ambassadors to help preserve it. Moreover, the boats of the tours teach messages of conservation and help tourists better understand our effects on the globe.

Penguin Patterns - To date, there has been no evidence that tourism has affected the breeding patterns of wild penguins, probably due to the strict regulations on tourist interaction with Antarctic wildlife.

There are many guidelines in place, so the environmental impact can be minimised.

The awareness of the unique environment is increased as people are able to visit it.

There has been no conclusive evidence that tourism so far has disturbed breeding patterns of wildlife like penguins.

Tour operators have voluntary codes of conduct to minimise the impacts - including not going within five metres of wildlife.

Tourists learn about the marine biology and threats because of climate change - they may become ambassadors for the area.

The Cons

Risk of Pollution - There is always the danger of any accidents involving the ships touring the Antarctic, resulting in oil spills and debris that could damage the delicate ecosystems.

Invasive life - Tourists or guides could unwittingly carry outside seeds, spores, or even insects into the area, disrupting the natural balance of the ecosystem.

Animal life - As tourism increases, wildlife could abandon their normal places of habitation if they are regularly disturbed. This has the potential to negatively impact their breeding and the balance of the surrounding ecosystems.

The ecosystem is very fragile, and too many people will disrupt the delicate balance it has. It can take many years to recover, if at all.

If larger ships come, tourist numbers will increase.

Tourists, along with research scientists, may unknowingly bring seeds and spores of plants from other areas.

There is the threat of pollution, eg oil spills from the cruise ships and other methods of transport. This happened in 2007.
