Science Discovery 11/2/14
For this science discovery I am doing it on Bigfoot also known as Sasquatch. Bigfoot is a large human shaped gorilla looking creature that stands on 2 legs. He is found to be 2-3 meters (6.6-9.8) tall, weighing about 500 lbs., and is covered with dark reddish or dark brown hair. Most scientists find Bigfoot to be a myth or a hoax because of the lack of evidence. On September 16, 2007, a hunter named Rick Jacobs supposedly took a picture of a Sasquatch by using an automatically triggered camera on a tree. The Pennsylvania Game Commission said that it was probably just a bear with a severe skin disease. The photo was taken near the town of Ridgeway, PA in the Allegheny National Forest.

I thought about it for awhile now and I was thinking what was I was going to do for my science discovery and I decided this time I would do it on something different. I am doing it on why do vinegar and baking soda fizz up when they are combined. it makes a fizzing response when the Acetic acid in the vinegar reacts with Sodium Bicarbonate (the name of the chemical for baking soda). The Acetic acid, the stuff that makes the vinegar sour, responds to the sodium bicarbonate to make carbonic acid. Carbonic acid is unstable, and it immediately falls apart into carbon dioxide and water. The bubbles come from the reaction that comes from the carbon dioxide escaping the solution that is left. volatilestorycontents.com

I decided to do this science discovery on Dust devils. Dust devils are comparable to tornadoes except that tornadoes are more wide than Dust devils and Dust devils are made of dust and sand. Dust devils are mostly harmless but on rare occasions they can be a threat to both people and their homes. Dust devils rarely get to the size of a tornado. In the southwestern United States, a dust devil is sometimes called a "dancing devil". In Death Valley California, it may be called a "sand auger" or a "dust whirl". The Navajo called them chiindii, ghosts or spirits of dead Navajos. If a chindi turns clockwise, it is said to be a good spirit; if it turns counterclockwise, it is said to be a bad spirit. Dust devils are in southern parts of the United States and in southern parts of Africa.

For this science discovery I decided to do it on Conifer trees (Pinophyta). The Conifer tree is part of the Pine family of trees. The trees contain a resin that protects the tree from insect infestation and fungal infection of wounds. The fossilized resin hardens turns into amber. Enough about the resin now to the rest. The world's tallest, thickest, and oldest living trees are all conifers.The tallest Conifer tree are the Redwoods with a height of 115 meters. The narrow cone shape of conifers, and their drooping limbs, help them shed snow. They grow basically everywhere.
This science discovery is on the Loch Ness Monster. I do not believe that this exists but some people do. There are many fake photos of the Loch Ness Monster that are out there and some that are unknown that have no proof whatsoever. The Loch Ness Monster is supposedly living in The Loch Ness in Scottish Highlands but, other people say they have saw in other places. Most people who believe in him think that he is part of the long-living species of plesiosaurs. The earliest report of a monster associated with the vicinity of Loch Ness appears in the Lifeof St. Columbia by Adomnan, written in the 7th century.
