scientists corner part 4 of 10- Nature

hello/ failte

sorry about the irish hello but i am now in ireland, but that dosen't prevent me from continuing my sieries of scientists corner. Today we shall discuss... Nature

Nature is a big thing,it is all around us, flora and fauna are nature, animals are nature, certain events are of the natural cause, in fact EVERYTHING has a natural cause, and that's what we'll be discussing today

flora and fauna

now nearly everyone must have heard of the terms "flora" and "fauna" before, but for those of you who have been on the moon or something, i'll tell you.
Flora is just another word for animals, as in "I saw a lot of flora today when i was out walking in the woods" or in plainer english "I saw a lot of animal when i was out walking in the woods today.
Fauna on the other hand, is just another word for plants as in "I saw a lot of exotic fauna today when i was in the fauna shop today" or in plainer english "I saw lots of exotic plants when i was in the plant shop today".

you see, flora and fauna just meen animals and plants

next time we shall be discussing..... CIRCLES OF LIFE but until next time.
