plz, help ASAP 20 points Write an informative essay that explains a natural phenomenon such as the Pitch Lake in Trinidad or the aurora borealis.
Answer: I really hope this helps!!!!!!! :)
The lake was created thousands of years ago by the process of sub\n, when the Carib bean continental plate was forced under another plate. This opened fault lines that allowed oil from deep underground deposits to rise to the surface, where it collected in a volcanic crater. The air caused lighter elements of the oil to evaporate, leaving behind the heavy asphalt, a mix of oil, clay a nd water.
In 1595, Sir Walter Raleigh arrived in Trinidad in search of El Dorado, the fabled city of gold. He attacked Port of Spain with cannons, and sacked St. Joseph. While sailing across the Gulf of Paria, he reputedly smelled the tar, and put into shore at Terra de Brea. The Caribs led Raleigh to the pitch lake, and he realized that the substance was ideal for caulking his ships. He took several barrels home with him, and has since been credited with “discovering” the lake.
Mining of the lake started in 1867, and an estimated 10 million tons of asphalt has been extracted since. Lake Asphalt of Trinidad & Tobagois a stateowned enterprise which mines, processes and exports asphalt around the globe, where it is used for paving roads, runways and race tracks. The company is vital to the local economy, as the major source of employment. The lake is estimated to contain reserves of around 6 million tons, which would last 400 years at the current rate of extraction.
Items found in the Pitch Lake include Amerindian artifacts, fossilized remains from a prehistoric giant sloth, and a mastodon tooth. In 1928, a massive tree, estimated to be around 4,000 years old, suddenly emerged from the center of the lake, then sank back down, although a section was rescued for posterity. Some scientists think the Pitch Lake is similar to hydrocarbon lakes on Titan, Saturn’s moon, which could help to answer the question of whether they could support life.

Answer:
i. The door of the car was opened for me by the driver.

Read this Pulmonology Consult excerpt: On physical exam, the patient is alert. He takes occasional pauses when he says long sentences, but otherwise, he is not in any distress. He has an occasional cough during his exam. His skin is pink and dry, and his lips are moist. His heartbeat is regular in rate and rhythm, without a murmur. On lung examination, he has whispered pectoriloquy on the right side with decreased breath sounds. He does not have any retractions or nasal flaring noted. His liver and spleen are not large. According to the excerpt, what was found upon lung examination on the right side
Answer:
In the lung on the right side it is possible to notice a "Whispered pectoriloquy."
Explanation:
The "Whispered pectoriloquy" presented by the patient's right lung is a sound that the doctor is able to hear, through the stethoscope, coming from inside the right lung. This sound is detected when the doctor asks the patient to speak words and random numbers in a whispered way, if the doctor can hear these whispers clearly through the stethoscope (which must be located on the patient's back) it means that the patient has a problem breathing that allows the accumulation of fluid in the lung. If the patient does not have fluid accumulation in the lung, the doctor will not be able to hear the whispers clearly.
In the case presented above, the doctor was able to hear the whispers which means that the patient has fluid in the right lung.
