You must download Earth Google for this assignment.
Please read carefully and fallow instructions .
This is not a Essay.
In this discussion,you will use Google Earth to explore the origin and evolution of features on the seafloor. This assignment addresses Student Learning Outcome 3.
Directions
First, review all content items in this module, including reading the assigned textbook chapter and reviewing the accompanying lesson slides.
After familiarizing yourself with marine provinces, open Google Earth. We want to more clearly see features on the ocean floor, so go to "View" in the menu and click "Water Surface" to disable it. Google Earth shows ocean bathymetry in shades of blue: the darker the blue, the greater the depth. Zoom in until you can see features on the seafloor. Find a volcanic peak on the seafloor and determine whether it is an abyssal hill, seamount, tablemount/guyot, volcanic island or an atoll. In your new reply to this discussion:

view the associated video clip found above and consider the following statement: In the last few tenths of a second before midnight of December 31 humans have developed an incredible civilization and learned a great deal about the universe. We are continuing to develop technology that is used to explore the vast cosmological expanse; however humans have also developed technology with which we could destroy ourselves. The dinosaurs survived about one week on the Cosmic Calendar: But, what about our species, all of humanity....will humans become extinct like countless other species on Earth? Incorporate time values within your reply and defend your position with supporting evidence. Please remember to respond from either the position that humans will become extinct or that humans will continue to survive.

physics
Write a biographical essay on one of the physicists listed below. Your biography must include a description of the significant contribution to science made by the physicist you selected.
Nikola Tesla (1856-1943)
Among his contributions, Nikola Tesla is best known for creating and developing the first Alternating Current (AC) system.
Stephen Hawking (1942 - 2018)
Hawking is best known for proving the existence of black holes through his theoretical prediction that black holes emit radiation, often called Hawking radiation. In his work with Roger Penrose, he is also known for the set of gravitational singularity theorems which supported Einstein's theory of general relativity.
Galileo Galilei (1564-1642)
Galileo is known for his experiments and theories in the field of bodies in motion which demonstrated the relationship between astronomy and physics. His work in astronomy, mathematics, and physics and the combination of these sciences be

Basic Case Summary Paper 1
Paper 1 requires you to review a judicial decision in an environmental law case (read the actual case decision written by the judge, not an article analysis or summary). If you are an environmental professional, you may want to write about a decision that is relevant to the work of your business or agency, or, you may choose a decision about an issue that interests you. The decision may be from either a state or federal Court (for example, the Colorado Supreme Court, U.S. District Court, the U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, or the U.S. Supreme Court). You must include the full name and citation of the case in your references so that I can retrieve the full case opinion.
Write this paper as if you are an environmental professional in a company, government agency, or nonprofit group, and your supervisor has asked you to prepare a written synopsis of a case that affects your business, agency, or organization.
The written synopsis can be only four pages max (not includin
