ummm yes thank you im not asking for tips!

Answer 1

I agree with the other answereres but I will help but you do the research.
it looks like you need help with biomes so read this it will help http://www.ucmp.berkeley.edu/exhibits/biomes/index.php

Q1 http://www.mbgnet.net/fresh/wetlands/
Q2 is a Biome couldn't find a specific site for that one so Marry Christmas.
Q3 http://www.mbgnet.net/salt/sandy/estuaries.htm Answer is in 1st sentence
Q4 True -(I know what it is like to be strapped for time heres your answer)
Q5 A swamp is any wetland dominated by woody plants.http://www.epa.gov/owow/wetlands/types/swamp.html
Q6 http://www.epa.gov/owow/wetlands/types/bog.html
Q7 That is too easy http://ga.water.usgs.gov/edu/watercycle.html
Q8 Evapotranspiration- cut this word in half is it true?
Q9 True Condensation
Condensation is the forming of water from water vapor. It takes place when warm, moisture-laden air comes in contact with a cold surface. In fact, condensation can only take place on a cold surface. Cold, of course, is a relative term.

10: Precipitation is (air?) that falls from the atmosphere as rain, snow, sleet, or hail.
Read this sentence carefully and you will find your answer.

11: Precipitation varies in amount, intensity, and form by season and geographic location.

15: Runoff is the movement of water, usually from precipitation, across the earth's surface towards stream channels, lakes, oceans, or depressions or low points in the earth's surface. clue gravity, and why do streams and rivers keep getting their flow. false is an unlikly answer
True
False

16: Acid rain" is a broad term used to describe several ways that acids fall out of the atmosphere. A more precise term is acid deposition, which has two parts: ____________.

(carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrous oxide) your welcome

18: An estuary is a partially enclosed body of water formed where freshwater from rivers and streams flows into the ocean, mixing with the salty sea water.
http://www.ust.hk/~webpepa/pepa/Protection-Plant/river/river.htm read the first small paragraph


19: The rate of infiltration is influenced by the physical characteristics of the soil, soil cover (i.e. plants), water content of the soil, soil temperature and rainfall intensity.
True -- your welcome
False


20: Estuaries are not critical for the survival of many species.

Answer 2

I hope no one gives you the answers as well! You should never cheat, the best way to remember these yourself is to study them yourself... use google like the others and I say, and read up alittle extra, this will help you remember them easier for the test and later in life... just some useless info, you know.

Answer 3

You sound like me when i was 16. ^_^ Jobs for biology: any type of Medical Doctor, but this requires 4 years of undergraduate school, at least six years of post graduate school and then years of internships Clinical Research, which involves working with pharmaceutical companies to develope and test experiment drugs that haven't been approved by the FDA to sell in the market yet. There are all different kinds of stages of clinical research from the initial testing on animals, all the way through to the drug being on the market for people and reevaluating it for further benefits. There is also just any type of scientist, from digging up dinosaur bones as a paleontologist or studying weather patterns as a metiorologist. You have to narrow it down to what type of science you like the best. There are a lot of Ivy League schools that have great biology programs, like Penn U, Princeton and UMDNJ. Find out what colleges your science teachers attended and if they liked the programs. Also, go to college fairs and sign up to receive info in the mail. You'll receive piles and piles of college stuff in the mail, but take a Saturday afternoon and go through all of them. Anything that looks like it would be strong in science, look them up on the internet for more information. To get into a good college, take as many science classes in high school as you can. Most high schools will give students the standard curriculum: 1 math, 1 science, 1 social studies and 1 english/literature. However, when you get to your junior and senior year, you can usually opt out of some classes and take additional science classes instead of something like a foreign language or phyis ed. my 11th grade year I took biology and chemistry and then in 12th grade I took AP biology and physics. You may think, "but i'm not interested in chem or physics." but, in college with a biology major you'll be required to take upper level chem and some physics classes to graduate. Having a strong background in these classes will aid you in getting accepted into college. Also, find out if there are any science fairs you can participate in locally. Even if you don't win, that's still bonus points on your application. And, of course, apply early! Take your SATs junior year and apply before the end of your junior year. Early acceptance is a big plus. Also, apply to at least four schools. hmmm, fun facts, eh? Let's see.... -Look up a guy named Phineas Gage. Interesting story. -your brain is the size of a grapefruit and your heart is the size of your fist. -there are 206 bones in the adult human body, but 300 when we are children. Many of our bones fuse together as we get older -the more bumpy your brain is, the smarter you are. Its all about surface area. -the smallest bone in your body is in your inner ear -the longest cell in your body is your motor neuron that can stretch from your big toe to your lower spinal cord -the most poisonous animal in the world is a frog in south america -the stegosaurus was over 25 feet long, but had a brain smaller than a golfball -the human eye blinks over 4 millions times per year -it takes about 12 hours for food to entirely digest -the longest living cells in the body are neurons, which can last your whole life. However, neuron cells cannot regenerate or replicate, so once they die, there is no going back -there is more computer technology in a Nintendo game system (the ones from the 1980s) than in the Hubble Space Telescope. -the average human brain weighs 3 lbs, but the heaviest ever recorded was over 5lbs -plants "lean" towards a sunny window because the lack of sunlight on the dark side of the plant causes a reaction that makes the cells swell. The plant is not "leaning towards the light" on purpose.

Answer 4

You really should go check on google.

Answer 5

I hope no one gives you these answers. Just GOOGLE them!

Answer 6

Dont be an idiot. Dont cheat, study and find your own answers.

just google them
i hate science
