Actually I should have asked this first are hornets, and yellow jackets the same insect, or are they seperate? We caught this massive hornet, or yellow jacket the stinger I have measured @ 1/4 inch long. This f**ker is huge, and the insect itself is just over 2 inch. I have never seen a bee, hornet, or anything related (except a wasp) this big. By the way I live in Florida I don't know if this makes any differance, but maybe location does help in narrowing down what the hell this thing is?

I often thought of this, when seeing those animals in cages, locked up, and in an environment that isn't their natural habitat. I feel bad for the animals, and watching the kids enjoy their presence when they go through, makes me have mixed feelings about 'zoos' in general. What are your thoughts?

One pipe can fill a tank in 7 minutes less time than it takes a smaller pipe. Together they can fill the tank in 12 minutes.

Write an equation to answer this question: How long would it take the larger pipe to fill the tank? Let t = the number of minutes it takes the larger pipe to fill the tank alone.

Then, solve the equation, and write its answer.

On oxidation each of the 2 aromatic compounds A & B of the same molecular wt 120 gives the same dibasic acid that on heating forms an anhydride. The compound A forms crystalline orange precipitate with 2,4 dinitrophenyl hydrazine. A on treatment with CH3MgBr, followed by dehydration and hydrogenation gives B. Identify A, B and give reactions.

Personally I think we haven’t leant to look after what we’ve got here, cos we still don't seem to be leaning much... So what are the chances for the rest of universe?

For those who may agree with Steven Hawins... what's the point!

I am referring to the family lost in Oregon with their car in the snow. I wonder if there is anything that could be done to the car radio to produce a short range signal.

it's someone-i-know's biology project snd she really needs help!!!
she needs to make an analogy: the parts of a cell to the things found in a school---> like the nucleus is the principal and the cell membrane is the walls of the school. She still needs to finds analogies to CHLOROPLAST, DNA, AND THE GOLGI COMPLEX. She thinks that the mitochondrian compares to electricity in a school, so what is compareable to choloplast in a plant cell?
