CHAPTER 24 Industrialization and Imperialism: The Making of the European Global Order Western European industrialization fundamentally altered the nature of European overseas expansion. Previously Europeans sought desired material goods or moved against threats from external enemies. In the Americas, they seized lands for plantation crops. Christian missionaries sought converts. Much of the secular and religious thrust was due to a desire to strengthen Europe in the long contest with Islam. Raw materials were needed to fuel industrial growth, and markets were required for its manufacturing production.. The increased power of the West made it fear other European imperial rivalries more than indigenous opposition.

The first humans used knowledge of animal habits to catch meals and avoid predators 2. Birds use songs to convey a variety of messages, including fertility, location, and territoriality a. These songs are useful for biologists as a fairly easy way to determine he effect of communication on all biological levels b. The study of bird songs has shows that both heredity and surroundings influence behavior 3. Understanding behavior is required in order to explain the various interactions of a species B.

How Are Fungi Important In Nature? Raven St. Jean Fungi play a major role in both nature and society in the sense that they are a huge resource for many things, like medicine. Fungi serve a purpose to the earth, humans, and many animals and plants. First, fungi are very beneficial to life on earth by recycling material. Without bacteria and fungi, gardening plants would be impossible. They lock up plant nutrients until they?re needed and can be used by the plants. This act reduces leeching of vital nutrients from the soil and makes a great home to plants. They also retain water in the soil for plants. The greatest deed that fungi do is act as a decomposer and break down dead matter into components that other plants and animals can eat.

7.1 Cognition Memory: AP psychology

Rosenweig/ Diamond lab report Problem: Does the environment of an organism affect its problem solving skills/brain activity? Hypothesis: enriched environments will yield better problem solving skill, whereas impoverished environments will yield inferior ones. Procedure: A sample group of rats will be randomly assigned to either a cage similar to that of a pet, in which toys games and ladders will be placed, or similar to that of a lab setting, a plain cage. The rats will then be subjected to a series of problem solving tests and the two groups will be compared. In addition their brain activity will be monitored.
