because of chain reactions, if flys were to go extinct, what would frogs eat, if frogs died, what would birds eat, and it continues like that
Mount St. Helens and Mount Vesuvius are two examples of composite volcanoes.
I assume you mean D-con as an abbreviation for de-contaminant or De-contamination. This falls under the heading of damage control, and is a heavy type of subject. There are what are called De-con guns that somewhat resemble some form of fire extin guishers. They are not fire-control apparatus but are sometimes used in the clean-up of chemical blazes involving toxic chemicals. they have odd-shaped nozzles and are held at about a 30 degree down angle by the operators. I have seen this type used in asbestos clean-ups at a local library. Then there are Decontamination trucks- which have odd pan-c ake shaped bodies on the back of a regular truck chassis- vaguely resembling a UFO. In use these lay down a white smoke screen from some sort of Hydroxide powder and this is intended to clean up the ground following chemical accidents. There are smaller models on two-wheel carts that are hand-pushed and resemble farm and garden implements! so there you have it. Deacon, pronounced somewhat similar, is an ecclesiastical rank. there is no other connection. D-con was a trade name for a pesticide-and featured the Boxer Muhammad Ali in ads. My Mother thought it was a pun on (deacon_ and wondered why this name would be attached to a pesticide! small wonder- this was long before the child abuse scandals rocking the church.
Also known as the Sabre-toothed Tiger (Saber is alternate spelling a type of Sword). Sabre is the more familiar, they were a species of extin ct feline with the enormous front end fangs, Many fossils have been recovered, say in the La brea Tar pits so we have a good idea what they looked like. it is not knopwn if they were striped as the Tiger handle suggests. by the way the technical term for this (Hopefully, if you live in California!) exdtinct beast is the Smilodon, pronounced Smile- O- Don- the Paleontologist clearly having a sense of humor, Never smile at a Smilodon.
