Managing the environment

 Resources


-My understanding of the environment is for example a water dam is defined as a barrier or structure across a stream, river or waterway to confine and then control the flow of water. “adaptive management” to maximise the benefits of a dam, while paying attention to and minimising environmental impacts over time. This can be done, for example, by using turbines that are more efficient or fish friendly, or by lowering the height of dams.



Environment 


-My understanding of the environment provides us and the wildlife with a home. Like squirrels in trees and bears in caves. To use environment in a sentence it’ll be“the environment has changed because of global warming”.




Sustainability 


-My understanding of sustainability is meeting our own needs without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. In addition to natural resources, we also need social resources.

Albinism

Explanation of the genetic disorder


 The Albinism Disorder is a genetic disease that has a group of inherited disorders where there is little or no production of the pigment melanin. The type and amount of melanin your body produces determines the colour of your skin, hair and eyes. Melanin also plays a role in the development of optic nerves, so people with albinism have vision problems. Signs of albinism are usually apparent in a person's skin, hair and eye colour, but sometimes differences are slight. People with albinism are also sensitive to the effects of the sun, so they're at increased risk of developing skin cancer.

Who does it affect? 



One person in 17,000 has some type of albinism. Albinism affects people from all races. Most children with albinism are born to parents who have normal hair and eye color for their ethnic backgrounds. The condition affects people in many ethnic groups and geographical regions. Types 1 and 2 are the most common forms of this condition; types 3 and 4 are less common. Type 2 occurs more frequently in African Americans, some Native American groups, and people from sub-Saharan Africa.
