The circumference of the Earth at the equator is 24900 miles and the residents of the tropic areas travel that distance every 24 hours. They are traveling over a thousand miles an hour. At 38Â° latitude we are traveling about 820 miles per hour. That is quite impressive but it pales in comparison with the orbital speed of the Earth, The average distance of the Earth from sun is 93.5 million miles.
The Sargasso Sea is characterized by a free-floating mass of seaweed, predominately S. natans and S. fluitans, in the western Atlantic Ocean. Sargassum is also known as sea holly because of its highly branched thallus with hollow, berrylike floats (pneumatocysts) and many leaflike sawtooth-edged blades.
The sago palm is a type of plant called a cycad. The sago palm (Cycas revoluta) has a rough trunk and long palm-like leaves but despite it's name and appearance, it's not a palm at all but an ancient relative of conifer trees.Sago palms produce both seeds and offsets, also called pups.. Scoop out a shallow hole in the center of the pot and place the sago palm pup in the soil with the side that was attached to the parent plant facing down. Refill the hole so that one-half is below the soil line.
