How do fire doors work?
Fire doors are used to stop fires or smoke from spreading into different areas of a building. Some fire doors have furry strips round the edges, these are called intumescent strips. The fibres in the strips swell when they get hot and stop smoke going round the edges of the door. The doors themselves are made up of layers of fireproof material which means that it takes longer to burn through the door. Most common fire doors protect the rest of the building for around half an hour only because of the intsumescent strips and the fireproof material actually on the doors.
How do you use fire blanket?
A fire blanket either completely surrounds a burning object or is placed over a burning object and sealed closely to a solid surface around the fire. Whether the blanket is placed on top, or surrounding it, the job of the blanket is to cut off the oxygen supply to the fire, and put it out. In using a fire blanket, it is important to protect the hands
Why are safety blankets used in a science lab?
They are used in case of an emergency.if there is a fire they could cover themselves for protection from the heat of the flames.
What are some good things about fire?
One of the selective advantages of fire in nature is for the purpose of keeping the grassland in check. Here is a paragraph i wrote for a project that explains the details specifically for grasslands: In the grasslands fire is almost entirely needed. One of the traits of grasslands is the lack of trees and shrubs so this is how the animals have adapted. Naturally though, the trees and shrubs will grow in this area. The fires will wipe out all tall vegetation by killing off the trees seedlings with its intense heat. If the fire wasn't present, then the grassland would eventually turn into a shrub land. The plants that exist in the grassland have adapted and now they need the fires to stay healthy and to grow new vegetation in spring. The animals in this area have also adapted to wildfires and have their own ways to stay safe and stay in check and healthy with the vegetation that survives the grassland wildfires.
What factor least affects the rate of runoff?
rate= speed...i think... well we have air earth fire and water as elements... i am not exactly sure if they are factors...but runoff is erosion, when dirt (earth) is carried away by water (water) and water is pushed by wind (air).Fire can burn down a forest which causes erosion. Part of the time it is from humans cutting down trees. So fire least affects the rate of runoff. sorry if this didnt help.
How do trees in taiga protect themselves from fire?
Trees in the taiga have thick bark that helps to insulate their sensitive inner tissues from heat and flames during a fire. Additionally, some trees in the taiga have adapted to release seeds or sprout new growth quickly after a fire, allowing them to regenerate and continue their life cycle. The spacing between trees in the taiga is generally wider compared to other forest types, which can help reduce the spread of fire by limiting the amount of fuel available.
How do trees in the taiga protect themselves from fire?
Fail, those answers are incorrect. The trees grow a thick bark to protect themselves from a mild fire. This is from: http://www.woodlands-junior.kent.sch.uk/Homework/habitats.html they drink water wear fire blanket
How do tress in the taiga protect themselves from fire?

How do trees in the taigs protect themselves from fire?
they pull out there ak and shoot it lol
How do trees in the tiaga protect themselves from fire?
They utilize a complimentary assortment of modalities, among these being the utilization of insulating bark of greater width than similar trees, adaptations to utilize the soil composed of burn products, and the contracting of private fire protection and rapid response teams to limit the damage any fire can inflict before being extinguished. For more info, please visit ADT's website, where a full compliment of fire protection and response services are available for investigation.
Does the taiga have fire tolerant plants?
Yes, the taiga biome does have fire-tolerant plants such as coniferous trees with thick bark like spruce and pine, which are adapted to survive and even benefit from forest fires. These trees have evolved strategies to resist fire damage and regenerate after a fire, making them well-suited to the frequent wildfires in taiga ecosystems.
What are some natural disasters that affect the taiga?
It is being destroyed by wildfires caused by man, but the many trees have adapted to this by growing thick bark, which can protect the tree from a mild fire.
