Is Deer Culling good or bad?

Culling the population of deers comes with pros and cons. Controlling the number of deers allowed to live in a long term period may affect the plantation in the environment. Pests like wild deers are normally being allowed to reproduce yearly or in a long term period of time before the hunters that have been given license can be given the right to exterminate them. It can also allow the hunters to exercise while hunting them as they run around chasing deers can help them enhance their stamina. deer hunting has been around for 350,000 years. Artifacts found in Germany and France have paintings or carvings about humans years ago hunting deer.

In comparison, if deers are left to their own business they may end up overpopulated and they may start overgrazing food sources they normally eat. In my own way of viewing, I guess it helps people adapt to harsh living conditions like hunting wild animals for survival in case of emergency. 

Accurately, around 1.7 million is the current population of deer around New Zealand whilst around 54,000 are normally being diminished each year. Deer can populate quite fast so they may be a chance that the normal reproduction rate of deer each year may vary. As deer don't have that many predators that hunt them it enables them to repopulate much faster than other pests in New Zealand.

Managing the population of deer is to ensure that we can have a healthy and balanced environment. it can also help us reduce the potential chances of acquiring diseases from deer. Car incidents that relate to deer can also be reduced if their numbers are kept on a sustainable rate. Therefore I

Technology


In general, technology has changed the world a long way. it helped us overcome solutions. it improved our daily lives and communities, Along with world conventions there are some that have good uses. like for example online shopping. In conclusion, technology has evolved since then but there seem to be consequences with technologies,

 Positives of Technology
Negatives of Technology
- Access to social media for long distance interaction
- instant access to world wide information
-connect to people easily
-make new friend online.
-win money
-online shopping
-access to jobs
-satisfaction
-leisure
-business






eye problems or synonyms 
- lack of rest and sleep
- lack of family time
-hard to concentrate and focus on school or job related topics
-it can make you feel alienated from the rest.

-fitness concentration gets hard



Are students addicted to their cellphones?, If so, is that a problem?it majorly depends on the behaviour and how the student perceive themselves with their own cell phones. It can vary or change on how the student acts on about the topic of phones. 

Copper Coin Experiment

-Clean coin in salt + vinegar solution.
-put 50 ml of 2molL NaOH into a beaker.
-heat on bunsen burner until NEARLY boiling - Stir as getting >  then take off the heat.
-Add a spatula of zinc powder.
-Heat lightly for 3 min, with the coin in - Stir as heating
-Take the coin out with tongs
-Rinse coin under water to remove chunks of zinc.
-Wave coin in the blue flame using tongs

Observations
the coin started off with the color of copper. After putting 50ml of 2molL⁻1 Nat OH into a beaker. we heated it lightly to the point where it was NEARLY boiling, whilst stirring. We added a spatula of zinc powder, heated it up again for a couple of mins with the coin in while stirring. It turned out to be the color silver. We took it out and rinsed it underwater to see if there are still remnants of zinc remaining. Lastly, using the tongs we waved it on top of the blue flame then it turned to gold.

Periodic Table Research

What are the different types of elements?
Standard periodic table, element types - Stock Image - C001/3007 ...
Metals, Non-metals, Noble gases, and transition metals, But there are also subcategories of metals or just different metals in different sections.

What are the transition metals?
They are the type of metals that are used in industries. they are ductile, malleable, and can conduct heat and electricity. 
What are Alkali metals?
It consists of other chemical elements in the periodic table. it is lustre and is 
What are the noble gases?
They are a group of gases that show great stability and extremely low reaction rates. they can also be called inert

Fact - it was discovered by a Russian scientist, Dimitri Mendeleev. He arranged the elements by the number of their atomic masses
