Well, which one do you think is better to use?

Is there a food chain with 5 consumers? Not organisms though! What would be the 5 level of consumer be called? Because you have primary, Secondary, Tertiary, Qadternary, .....

Well, I would think that plants that live in areas which have a low amount of nitrates in the soil, would have evolved over the billions of years so that they can take the nitrogen straight from the air!

Since food chains can be as long as you want them to be, I am wondering what is the longest 'natural' food chain. Also, I don't want humans to be counted in as they are omnivores and can interfere in any part of the food chain! What is the longest food chain known to man?

How come plants haven't evolved into taking nitrogen from the air? They need the nitrogenous compounds to make chlorophyll in the chloroplasts. I know pea plants can do this, but how come not other plants? Air is a very good source of nitrgoen you know!

Thanks alot Skye. Any idea on what the chemical name of styrene would be?

hmmmm.... is that the same meaning as it having a benzene ring? That is what my teacher told me when I asked him about it! By the way, what is the chemical name for polystyrene? and, what is meant by a net 1.5 bond?

Could you please explain further?

lol! here is another: A woman thinks that her husband is cheating on her, so, when the husband kisses her goodbye and leaves the house, she takes a shotgun, aims and fires, but she misses When he comes bag, she hugs him and says "Oh, i missed you!"

I totally agree, but she is finding it difficult and boring I hope that doesn't affect her interest for science later on! -------------------------------------------------- Woo-hoo! My 1000th post! I never knew I would actually make it!

Looking through that book, discover the wonder is of a very high standard. Examples of what a Year 5 student seems to be learning is quite complex. She knows the diagram of the eye, ear and can label both of those. She has taken neurones and can label them!

yeah! So what have we decided about that ozone thing she is studying?

LOL! Ok! Why do we call it flavour?

Yeah definitely! It should be like the science forums chat!

LOl! At the moment, she is with me right now and is reading the thread! She is asking me what polycyclic hydrocarbons are!

Your welcome! Glad to be of help! But anyways, its up to the admin to decide whether or not the science forums would get that package!

Well, beleive it or not, she actually is learning that a poisonous gs is emitted from car fumes (along with the other gasses) and it is called ozone!

Whichever one is really fine with me. But, if you really insist on one, then, I would go for the acedemic suite (besides, people are here to learn) learning portal one!

Good lookup Wolfson! Let's see whether it is possible to implement the system!

Well, she is in year 5, and studies "discover the wonder". Could that help?

would the book actually mention that O3 was produced as a result? Even though it is a trace?

hmmm.... that's what I read. Must be pretty accurate though. Is it possible?

Also, isn't ozone generated from car fumes? That was what I read in my sister's science book!

Thank you!

Here is a good one, especially if you hate microsludge* Bill Gates dies and goes to St. Peter. St. Peter tells him "You have an equal amount of things that you have done good and things that you have done bad. So, I'll give you a choice of going to hell or heaven" St. Peter first takes him to hell, and Gates sees beautiful women and brilliant gardens and all. Then, he is taken to heaven where he sees paradise. But, it was not as convincing as hell. Gates chooses hell. St. Peter says" Ok. I'll come after a week to check that everything is alright" A week later, St. Peter comes to see that Gates is being tortured by old ladies. Horrible, Horrible stuff. Gates says "Hey, what I saw wasn't like this. It was MUCH better than this? What happened?" St. Peter replies "That was a demo" *Name made up by Capn' Refshmatt if I remember correctly in the Spyware thread for Microsoft!
