How do rainbows form? This is a good question. The raindrops act as little prisms. Prisms refract light into ROYGBIV. The rainbow is made up of ROYGBIV. The raindrops refract light which creates rainbows. This is not an overly complex process. When it rains, the raindrops refract the white light, and a rainbow is created. ROYGBIV is red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet. Red has long wavelengths, and low frequency. Violet has shorter wavelengths with higher frequency. As you move left to right in ROYGBIV, the wavelengths decrease, and the frequency increases. If you move from right to left the wavelength increases, and the frequency decreases.
Rainbows can also form if you pass white light through an actual prism. The prism than refracts the light which creates ROYGBIV. Red has longer wavelengths, and lower frequency. On the other hand, violet has shorter wavelengths, but higher frequency. This is how rainbows form.
Why are temperate plants found in Antarctica? Temperate plants are found in Antarctica because Antarctica was once in a temperate place where it received much more heat than it does now. This is due to continental plate tectonics. Antarctica had a divergent boundary which made Antarctica move away from other plates. If it was a transform boundary; it would create earthquakes, and if it was a convergent boundary; there would be mountains which have formed. Antarctica was once very warm, and it was warm enough for plants to grow.
Now it is very cold, and at this rate, it will melt very soon. This will have a negative impact because water levels will rise and certain coastal cities (such as San Francisco) will be below sea level. This is only one city. There are many cities in the world that will be below the water. Japan may be under water as well. Also, only 3% of our water is fresh water. Of this 3%, only 15% is accessible. The other 85% of the 3% is in glaciers. At this rate. The earth will most likely enter into a water world, and humans will either adapt and be able to live, or humans will go extinct.
There is not a lot of information on the Radiated Tortoise. There is only a maximum of 10 years of research done on the Radiated Tortoise. The websites that may possibly contain information on the Radiated Tortoise are blocked, and there is not a lot of information. This is very hard since I need to find adaptations. If there is a maximum of 10 years of research. I am sure there is a lot of less information on adaptations.
The other 3 kids in my group have it pretty easy. The kid that sits next to me got 9 of 10. The girl across from had the easiest, and she got 12 for 12. Since this is a group project, they brought me up from a F to a C. But really, some of the other kids have animals that are really simple such as a goat or a catfish. I don't think this is fair, there should have been a raffle for each of the groups. The group next to us just talks and talks and they got 46 out of 45. We did not talk and waste our time, and we got 29/42.
