8.5 Constructing bibliographies At the end of your assignments you need to include a bibliography or list of references. This is an alphabetical list of all the sources that you have used – each chapter, book and article that you refer to in the main body of your discussion.

10.4 Summary By biological evolution we mean that many of the organisms that inhabit the Earth today are different from those that inhabited it in the past. Natural selection is one of several processes that can bring about evolution, although it can also promote stability rather than change. It follows that natural selection is not the same thing as evolution. The four propositions underlying Darwin's theory of evolution through natural selection are: (1) more individuals are produced than ca

Car Safety Tips in Children
This three minute video shows the importance of using baby seats in cars. It does not tell you how to identify a good one and is weak on showing how they should be belted at different ages. At best, this is a warning video for parents.
7 Dividing when you have to carry If the number you are dividing by does not go exactly (with no remainder) into the digit you are dividing into, you need to do something called carrying. Say you want to divide 952 by 7. The process is basically the same as in the previous section. First write it down on paper. Then, to do the calculation, you take each digit from the number being divided in turn, starting with the one on the far left, and see how many times the dividing number, 7 in this case, goes into it. The calcula
5.2 Free verse Although we can't make rules about what constitutes a poem, we can see that even when writing free verse, where lines and line-breaks may be irregular, form is still important. Free verse still makes use of technical effects: rhythms, grammatical structures, sound effects, etc. Also, it invariably still makes grammatical sense. Free verse, with its infinite elasticity, can recreate form anew in each poem, inventing a one-off organising principle which explains that particular poem.
