Analysis

The scatter plot provide a visual representation of the relationship between white pine and the percentage of Penn Sedge. It form the preliminary analysis. The scatter plot shows a negative relationship between the percentage of Penn Sedge and the number of white pine. However, the relationship seems to be weak since the trend line is almost horizontal. Besides, the data points are far away from the trend line.

Further analysis was conducted using regression analysis to test the hypothesis under consideration. The regression results as follows:

The adjusted R square is -0.004. This means that the percentage of Penn Sedge only explains 0.004 percent variation in the number of white pine and approximately 99 percent of the ...

I was youngest of all as well. The combination of blackness and youngness made me a perfect contrast ...

Abstract

Plants undergo two very different types of reproduction – asexual reproduction and sexual reproduction. As plant life on Earth is extremely diverse, it follows that the methods of sexual reproduction among plants would also be quite diverse. Plants employ various techniques to accomplish this sexual reproduction based on their environment and what technique will improve their fitness. The boxelder maple uses wind to disperse the male seeds into the environment to find and fertilize a female plant (Greene & Johnson, 1995). Another plant, a mistletoe, utilizes a marsupial animal to disperse its seeds (Garcia, Rodriguez-Cabal, & Amico, 2009). These two separate but ...

Of all the seven windows, only the small one on the right was illuminated, but the thick, heavy curtains of a marine shade refused to reveal its interior ...

A thunderous ringing noise roused the somnolent house on Maple Street, number 92, lulled in soporific breeze of the autumn night. A corpulent, pale yellow fingered hand picked up the receiver of an obsolescent, antiquated phone, the noise of which perforated the bucolically alveolated inside of the house. “Yes?” A raucous and slightly hoarse voice breathed languidly. “Detective Davidson? It’s lieutenant Kowalsky… I apologize for calling this early, but we need you over at the high school… there’s been a murder,” the voice was cacophonous and discombobulated. “I’ll be right there,” Maximilian ...

Think of various musical styles such as Jazz or other modern types of music and it would be rare that people think of the ‘King of Rag’. Such a title was given to a man that lived and breathed true musicianship in tragic circumstances typical of many Negro Americans living under racial segregation and slavery in the late 1800’s. Scott Joplin’s early life, schooling, ambitions, influences and subsequent success eventually lead to a transformation of popular music from saloons and classical music at the time to a new style of music known as ‘Ragtime’. Ragtime is a musical form with a modified ...

Abstract

Ecology, a scientific discipline based on ecosystem, interrelates organisms, vegetation, process and condition in nature. For ecological study of any landscape knowledge about structure of plant communities and role of soil is required. Knowledge of plant community is based on understanding of spatial relationships, abundance and diversity of plants or vegetation in that area. From the study of plant community and their associated edaphic or soil factors knowledge of vegetation patterns and species assemblage is developed. In a plant community it is very difficult to quantify number and distribution of all species and individuals, so techniques for obtaining representative sample have ...

In this day and age, humanity is rubbed raw of cynicism. The information age is taking our world to greater heights and banishes all mysteries left in the world—and in such haste. In the mad rat race, people have grown weary and look at our reality as a dull brick wall devoid of any meaning and wonder. Once upon a time, the horizon promised exotic islands, unseen civilizations, treasures waiting to be unearthed. The only place where these seem to exist are places of fiction and fantasy. So where does a writer of literary realism such as John Updike belong, if ...

Global Warming and its Impact on the Environment

Introduction Global warming has been an issue of concern in the world’s environmental circles as there are growing concerns about its increase. It is the gradual rising in temperatures when green house gases that include carbon dioxide, nitrous oxide, methane and water vapor are trapped within the earth’s atmosphere. This has caused the melting of the icecaps which have led to a rise in sea levels. Other effects of global warming are changing weather patterns which have caused flooding, heat waves and drought. All these effects show that global warming has impacted significantly on the environment. Since ...

Ava stared down at the man’s body, lying twisted on the road. She swallowed, trying not to be repulsed by the blood seeping from underneath his head. She looked up at Max. He was holding his hair with his hands and shaking his head in disbelief.

“I think he’s dead, Ava.”

Ava nodded and returned her gaze to the man. His eyes were open; they still held the same look of shock that they’d had the second before their car had hit him. His brown corduroy trousers and tatty green coat looked like the impact hadn’ ...
