MOUNTAIN RANGES & CONTINENTAL DRIFT

How plate tectonics shapes our planet

Mr. Andersen describes how plate tectonics shapes our planet. Continental and oceanic platers are contrasted and major plate boundaries are discussed.



Continental Drift

A brief overview of the theory of continental drift and the evidence supporting it. This video explores how the apparent fit of the continents, fossil and rock correlation, and paleoclimate data support Alfred Wegener's ground-breaking theory.

240 million years ago to 250 million years in the future

This animation shows the plate tectonic evolution of the Earth from the time of Pangea, 240 million years ago, to the formation of Pangea Proxima, 250 million years in the future.

HEAT & TEMPERATURE

1.-Difference between Heat and Temperature




2.-Thermal Energy vs Temperature

Which has more energy – an ice berg or a cup of coffee?


3.-Heat Transfer

Heat is the transfer of energy from objects of different temperatures. As objects warm-up or cool down their kinetic energy changes. Kinetic energy is the energy of motion

ECOLOGICAL PYRAMIDS

Learn all about ecological pyramids and how to show quantitative data about relationships between species.

POPULATION: STRUCTURE & DYNAMICS

Population structure


Population dynamic
Learn how to calculate growth rate, interpret growth diagrams, survivorship curves, population pyramids (age structures), exponential and logistic growth


Interactions between species

Interspecific and intraspecific relationships

From this video you should know the difference between interspecific and intraspecific, and that interactions can be positive, negative or neutral.


Community Ecology

Interactions between species are what define ecological communities, and community ecology studies these interactions anywhere they take place. Although interspecies interactions are mostly competitive, competition is pretty dangerous, so a lot of interactions are actually about side-stepping direct competition and instead finding ways to divvy up resources to let species get along



WHAT IS ENERGY?


We need and use energy in all activities. Energy is the capacity to do work. This educational video is designed to explain what is energy, sources of energy, and uses of energy. We see the various applications of energy through an example of a family picnic, and see various types of energy in action. This video teaches all aspects of energy in an engaging and clear manner.


This video provides you a greater understanding about what energy is.

CHARACTERISTICS OF BIRDS



CHARACTERISTICS OF BIRDS

1.-Did you now that the fastest bird is the peregrine hawk? This bird of prey can reach up to 400 kilometers per hour whist free falling. Wow it’s so fast, poor dove if it were to cross its path…

2.-Twelve characteristics that most birds share but that most other animals do not.
