2) What’s the longest river in the world? In Asia? In North and South America? 

A scientific expedition sets the length 6,800 kilometers of the Amazon, 100 kilometers longer than the Nile


ELPAIS.COM 16 JUN 2007 - 11:36 CET


The Nile and the Amazon. Between these two rivers that flow through several countries in Africa, the first, and South America, the second, browse the debate about which is the longest course in the world. So far, the Nile ranked first followed by Amazon. However, as the BBC published on its website, an expedition of scientists 'elongate' the length of the Amazon to the 6,800 miles, over 100 miles longer than the Nile.

This group of scientists, expedition in Peru, a country that runs the Amazon with Brazil and Colombia, has concluded that the source of the river is at a point in southern Peru rather than in the north as had been thought until now. Scientists traveled for 14 days to establish the altitude about 5000m. So far, the source of the river had been set at the Quebrada de apacheta with Misti Snow Mountain.

This revelation has been used by the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics to say that today could be considered as a fact that the Amazon is the longest river in South America and the world.

3) What is the longest river in Asia?

The longest river in Asia-the third in the world after the Amazon and the Nilo is the Yangtze, with a length of over 6,300 kilometers from its source in the Tibetan Plateau in western China, to its mouth in the Sea East. 

The Yangtze flows through valleys, big cities, small towns and mountain ranges of up to 10 different provinces. Especially famous are the three Yangtze River gorges: Qutang, Wuxia and Xiling, of great ecological value and place chosen by the Chinese government to build the largest dam of the planet.

Regarded as the cradle of ancient Chinese civilization, the Yangtze River is known in that country as Chang Jiang (Long River) and was named in some ancient atlas as Blue River, by analogy with the second largest river in China, the Hoang- Ho or Yellow River.

As a result of continued use for river transport, the waters of the Yangtze River are now quite polluted, which has caused the final extinction of the white dolphin, a rare species of freshwater cetaceans that existed in the world.

The total length of these two rivers exceeds 6,800 km, and the surface of the Mississippi watershed make one of the largest rivers in the world and the Mississippi-Missouri one of the longest river systems in the world. During pre-Columbian times, and was an important waterway, and Amerindians called him "Meschacebé" 5 which means "father of waters." Today, the river is a key element of the economy and of American culture.

5) What’s the biggest bird in the world? Where does it live? Describe it.

What's the biggest bird in the world? 

If we measure the birds in the spread of its wings outstretched and not their height, the world's largest bird would then viajero2 or wandering albatross (Diomedea exulans) is a kind of aveprocelariforme of Diomedeidae family. It was the first albatross to be described and is the most widespread of them. Reaching a height of 1.30 m, a wingspan of over 3.5 m peak of 20 cm, is the largest of the albatrosses and flying birds existing today.

Where does it live? 

D. exulans inhabit all oceans of the southern hemisphere, especially in regionessubtropicales and sub, although it is not strange to see him in the Tropic of Capricorn, and sometimes even further north. Prefers deep sea fishing, far from land; feeding is based on cephalopods, fish and waste from boats.

The plumage of the wings is white in adult males, with black primary feathers; shows large covered wing mottled black towards the ends, and with age the proportion of target increases. The bill is pale pink with slightly inclined upward nostrils; feet are webbed, and flesh-colored. The smallest female, and has a crown of feathers brown. Juveniles show more brown plumage and brown legs. It closely resembles the royal albatross (Diomedea epomophora).

Moreover, we have the Andean condor, the largest flying bird alive that is registered.

This stunning Andean bird can measure 1, 30 meters high, 3.50 meters from the tip of one wing to the other and reach a weight of about 12 kilograms. Unlike the ostrich, the condor can fly itself. And not only that, but it is one of the best birds are flying skills.


Its large wings allow him to glide for hours without moving them. With only about 12 kilos weight, can ascend to the amazing height of 7000 meters and have a view able to spot prey the size of a rabbit from a height of around 3,500 meters. Unfortunately, the Andean condor is endangered and is currently fighting to save the species.

8) What’s the hardest substance on Earth?

What is it used for?

lonsdaleite

The lonsdaleite is a hexagonal allotrope of carbon found in meteorites, named in honor of Kathleen Lonsdale. It is a form similar to diamond, however hexagonal (polymorph). 

First found in 1967 in microscopic crystals associated with diamond meteorite remnants in Arizona. It is believed that the meteorite impact against the ground graphite, heat and impact energy can transform graphite into diamond maintain its hexagonal structure.

It is black in color, brightness diamantínico. Crystals <3mm, pseudocubic, octahedral configuration. Diffraction 2.06,2.19,1.26. a = 3 b = 0 c = 4 α = 0 ° 0 ° β = γ = 0 ° Z = 4

Found in Tunguska, Russia and other meteorite impacts.

Appears on results of studies conducted in February 2009, which would Lonsdaleite 58% harder than diamond. It would, therefore, one of the hardest materials in nature, next to Boric of Wurtzite Nitride (WBN), due to the pressures in volcanic eruptions.

And its usefulness is over COLLECTION type, because it is really very low (more than diamond, as a polymorph of carbon).
