Methods used by zoos in conserving endangered animals:
Thats as my friend

Zoos :
1- Education
Everyone who visits the zoos are all informed of various conservation issues including:
- The need to maintain biodiversity
- The illegal trade in certain animal products (eg. ivory)
- Captive-breeding programmes and their success stories

2- Scientific Research
Zoos and universities work together on projects to benefit the conservation of animals, including:
- Development of new techniques to improve breeding success.
- Control of diseases that are effecting/reducing populations.
- Behavioural studies to further show the needs of animals in captivity.

3- Captive-breeding Programmes
These are designed to encourage endangered species to breed so that...
- Risk of extinction decreases as their numbers increase
- Some individuals can be released into the wild or protected areas to maintain/re-establish wild breeding populations.
- The genetic diversity of the species is maintained.

4- Reintroduction Programmes
Basically, these are programmes designed so that captive-bred individuals can be released into the wild so that natural breeding populations can be maintained/re-established.

Seed banks :

Most seeds, instead of living plants, from a variety of endangered plants can be stored in a dormant state in seed banks. We use seeds rather than plants because:

- They take up less space and therefore more species can be held in the available species
- Generally, most plants produce large numbers of seeds so collecting small samples is unlikely to damage wild population
- Seeds are easier to store because dormant
- They are more cost effective

Explain the trend in thermal stability and decomposition of group 2 carbonates and Nitrate ____I want your version of the answer :) =)_ I'm serious this time :p

Lol haha okay .. But those are as man ... My ask me thread was supposed to be for a2 only

But anyways , lattice energy is highwhen the distance is small bet the ions ( G2 and the carbonate / oxides / nitrates)
Stability increases down the group
and as the metal gets larger due to extra shells
Lattice energy of the compounds decreases
Now for each they fall differently due to the dif sizes of the negative ions

pretty cool :) You use the lattice enthalpy and Ionization method :) _____ nice
