Hi my name is Alice and I love like to see me. I like playing a selection singing again Maxine's enough. Where people like to use electricity in the house of the time. If we had all like shit in the world reminding me we wouldn't have ranges in Witness dojos we wouldn't have a whole bunch of things. I don't wanna be a a person that like when your fringe area goes down and somebody comes over and we wires or something. I discovered the back museum of electricity and magnetism in my neighborhood. I began volunteering there to learn more about I don't like to see them. I like helping other kids that don't match anything I like. Teaching them differently next. Moment. And sometimes kids say are you in a small way graders something alike. No I just know Latin I like how.
There are two kinds of electricity static and. Current electricity flow. It moves through a circuit the electricity flows from the bedroom to the light. Sue the wires that makes the circuit. See it has to be a closed circuit weren't it to work. This generates static electricity. Makes huge sparks static electricity doesn't flow. Instead it builds up in the morning plates. When they are out this. Morning on my hear it makes a little bit of static. And I use the static generator it makes all live a step. I'll show you how to make this flashlight. The flashlight uses current electricity. How do you make it is pretty easy. You need some wires. A battery. And. A light bulb.
And you just connect the two wires from the battery to the light Bob which makes a circuit which makes a light go on. Good. It works. What I'm going do is take a toilet paper all. Stuffing everything. To the toilet paper all. Now we're gonna put the reflector on. You just put it over your right. This is for the reflection of the flashlight. I close the circuit by squeezing the two metals are touching which makes the light bulb go. I use my flashlight to look around. In my house to find things. When the light lights up you like who I knew what I feel like. Trying to make one.

Description
Is this a good model of a biome? What are its strengths? What are its weaknesses?
Description
The distribution of plants and animals around the world corresponds closely to global patterns of temperature and rainfall. This is why two forests half a world away from each other will often have very similar organisms living in them. In this ZOOMSci video segment, a cast member of ZOOM creates a self-contained biome and explores evaporation, condensation and precipitation.
