            The human brain,with an average weight of 1,4 kilograms,is the control center of the body.It receives information from the senses,processes the information,and rapidly sends out responses,it also stores the information that is the source of human thoughts and feeling.Each of the three main parts of the brain-the cerebrum,the cerebellum,and the brain stem-has its own role in carrying out these functions.
            The cerebrum is by far the largest of the three parts,taking up 85 percent of the brain by weight.The outside layer of the cerebrum,the cerebral cortex,is a grooved and bumpy surface covering the nerve cells beneath.The various sections of the cerebrum are the sensory cortex,which is responsible for receiving and decoding sensory messages from throughout the body;the motor cortex,which sends action instructions to the skeletal muscles;and the association cortex,which receives,monitors,and processes information.It is in the association cortex that the processes that allow humans to think take place.
            The cerebellun,located below the cerebrum in the back part of the skull,is made of masses of bunched up nerve cells,It is the cerebellum that controls human balance,coordination,and posture.
            The brain stem,which connects the cerebrum and the spinal cord,controls various body processes such as breathing and heartbeatIt is the majaor motor and sensory pathway connecting the body and the cerebrum.

             Just two months after the flight of Apollo 10,the Apollo 11 astronouts made their historic landing on the surface of the moon.This momentous trip for humanity also provided scientists with an abundance of material for study;from rock and soil samples brought back from the Moon,scientists have been able to determine much about the composition of the Moon as well as to draw inferences about the development of the Moon from its composition.               The Moon soil that came back on Apollo 11 contains small bits of rock and glass which were probably ground from larger rocks when meteors impacted with the surface of the Moon.The bits of glass are spherical in shape and constitute approximately half of the Moon soil.Scientists found no trace of animal or plant life in this soil.               In addition to the Moon soil,astronauts gathered two basic types of rocks from the surface of the Moon:basalt and breccia.Basalt is a cooled and hardened volcanic lava common to the E

             During the heyday of the railroads,when Ameria's rail system provided the bulk of the country's passenger and freight transportation,various types of railroad cars were in servive to accomplish the varied tasks handled by the railroads.One type of car that was not available for public use prior to the civil War,however,was a sleeping car,ideas for sleeping cars abounded at the time, but these ideas were unworkable.It unfortunately took the death of a president to make the sleeping car a viable reality.               Cabinet-maker George M.Pullman had recognized the demand for sleeping cars and had worked on developing experimental models of sleeping cars in the decade leading up to the Civil War.However,in spite of the fact that he had made successful test runs on the chicago and Alton Railroads with his models,he was unable to sell his idea because his models were too wide and too high for existing train stations and bridges.In 1863,after spending time working as

         Today ,the most universally known style of both men and women is jeans;these trousers are worn throuhout the world on a variety of occasions and in diverse situations.Also called levis or denims,jeans have an interesting history,one that is intermixed with the derivation of the words jeans,denims,and levis.               The word jeans is derived from the name of the place where a similar style of plants developed.In the sixteenth century,sailors from Genoa,Italy,wore a rather unique type of cotton trousers.In the French language,the word for the city of Genoa and for the people from that city is Genes;this name became attached to the specific style of pants worn by the sailors from this city and developed into the word jeans that today describes the descendents of the Genovese sailors' cotton pants.               Similar to the word jeans,the word denim is also derived from a place name.In the seventeenth century,French tailors began making trousers out of a specialized t
