History of Europe

It is estimated that around 16,000 to 20,000 people died in the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD. The exact number of houses destroyed is not known, but the cities of Pompeii and Herculaneum were both buried under volcanic ash and debris.

Schiaparelli discovered that that Mars appeared to be covered with a network of channels, which he called, in Italian (because HE was Italian) "canali". "Canali" is Italian for "channels", which would be perfectly natural. A British newspaper mis-translated this with the somewhat more sensational "canals", implying a manufactured system.

And so the "Canals of Mars" came full-blown and entirely fictionally into the awareness of the late 1880s. Edgar Rice Burroughs (author of the Tarzan stories) would later write a dozen heroic fantasies about an immortal warrior from Earth who earned the Kingship of Helium, near the Grand Canal as John Carter, Warlord of Mars, husband and consort to the princess Dejah Thoris of Helium. The books are all available for free at gutenberg.com, and are phenomenally good reading. Blows Harry Potter right out of the water!

True. In the southern and eastern parts of the Byzantine Empire, the climate was generally characterized by mild, rainy summers and cool, wet winters due to the Mediterranean climate. This led to fertile lands that were conducive to agriculture and supported the empire's prosperous economy.

Venezuela was named after Venice, as the explorer Amerigo Vespucci believed the landscape reminded him of the Italian city.

The region in the Carpathian Mountains of Romania made famous by the fictional character Count Dracula is Transylvania. It is known for its medieval castles, fortified churches, and stunning landscapes. Visitors can also explore Bran Castle, often associated with the Dracula legend.

There are 27 species of sturgeon in existence today. These fish are ancient and have been around for millions of years, but many species are currently threatened or endangered due to overfishing and habitat destruction.

To show woman their strengths that they possesed, and what their purpose was in society, which was in this case child birth, hence the larrge breasts, stomach, and hips. To show them what they carry inside of them, a potential life, symbolizes a new life, or a new beginning.

If euglenas are placed in darkness for a long period of time, they will lose their green color. This is because they rely on chlorophyll for photosynthesis, and without light, they cannot produce chlorophyll and as a result, they lose their green color.

That depends on what you call 'long' or 'short'.

Halley's period is in the neighborhood of 75 years, give or take a few years.

Since that's short enough for two perihelions to occur within a single human lifetime,

I guess it ought to be considered a short period.

CUSO is not a recognized chemical element. It may refer to a chemical compound like copper sulfate (CuSO4), which is a blue crystalline solid commonly used in agriculture and industry.

After the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD, the cities of Pompeii and Herculaneum were buried under ash and pumice, preserving them for centuries. The area was abandoned and largely forgotten until their rediscovery in the 18th century, leading to significant archaeological excavations that have provided valuable insights into Roman daily life. Today, the ruins of Pompeii and Herculaneum are popular tourist destinations and UNESCO World Heritage sites.

The lowest rate of gas exchange is likely the result of decreased surface area for exchange, thickening of the respiratory membrane, or a decrease in the concentration gradient of gases. These factors can impair the efficiency of gas diffusion across the respiratory surfaces.

ok let me put this nice and easy. what he did was this he used the rock cycle and added it to the atmosphere of the earths mass and the simply divided the diameter of the reproductive system by a capillary and then wala he had the answer of a fail

The geographic features of Europe that had an influence on exploration were most likely the beaches and ports. This is because many Europeans were interested and curious to see if there was anything on the other side of the sea, or if the world was actually flat.

Pompeii is an ancient city located near Naples in Italy. It was buried under volcanic ash and pumice when Mount Vesuvius erupted in 79 AD. Today, it is a popular archaeological site and tourist attraction.

It all depends on the season. I was there in the summer and it was anywhere from the 50's - 70's...never above 72 (at least from what I saw). Scotland is a lot colder than Wales and England...London can get pretty warm. I would suggest a lot of layering. I was there today, & I will still be here tomorrow ! It's been a nice spring day in UK today ! On a more serious note the UK has a equable climate. It is rare for the temperature to get above 80 F, but similarly it is not terribly cold in winter. I have not seen snow here in years now. It's a little different further north, or in Scotland or in Wales, but generally the winters are mild, which means it rains fairly often. We have had about 2 or 3 frosts here all winter. The UK can have glorious summer days but, as a general rule, the summers are relatively cool and its difficult to know just when the good days will be. Last year was an example: April & May it was blue sky all day long. July, it hammered down with rain every day & masses of people were flooded. I predict it will be unpredictable !

It keeps London from being under water.

1 mile = 5280 feet

1 foot = 0.000189 mi.

Polish physicist Marie Curie, discoverer of both radium and polonium, spent much of her adult life studying the radioactive elements and the x-rays they emitted. Not only was radiation the bulk of her life's work, it was the cause of her demise as well: Curie died of Leukemia caused by repeated, unprotected exposure to radiation in 1934.

The creation of extremely diverse African nations within the arbitrary boundaries of a colony, and the spread of non-native languages throughout Africa.

Problems with political instability in the 20th century

People were amazed by the convenience and brightness of electric light in their homes. Many found it safer and more reliable than gas or oil lamps, and it revolutionized their daily lives by extending productive hours beyond daylight.

The goal of Pan-Slavism was to unify all Slavic peoples into a single political and cultural entity. It aimed to promote solidarity, cooperation, and mutual support among Slavic countries, with the goal of countering the political and cultural dominance of other European powers.

Yes, there have been several other volcanic eruptions around the world. Some well-known examples include Mount St. Helens in the United States, Mount Krakatoa in Indonesia, and Mount Pinatubo in the Philippines. Each eruption had varying impacts on the surrounding areas.

He wasn't. Galileo was. Copernicus published the theory that the earth revolves around the sun shortly before he died in 1543, and caused no great reaction from the church at the time. It was some 70 years later that Galileo got in trouble for advocating the theory in the 1600s.
