         The peales were a distinguised family of American artsts.Charles Wilson Peale is best remembered for his portraits of leading figures of the American Revolution.He painted portraits of Franklin and Jefferson,and over a dozen of George Washington reportedly once tipped his hat to the figures in the picture.          Charles Wilson Peale gave up painting in his middle age and devoted his life to the Peale Museum,which he founded in Philadelphia.The world's first popular museum of art and natural science,it featured paintings by Peale and his family as well as displays of animals in their natural settings.Peale found the animals himself and devised a method of taxidermy to make the exhibits more lifelike.The museum's most popular display was the skeleton of a  mastodon-a huge,extinct elephant-which Peale unearthed on a New York farm in 1801.          Three of Peale's seventeen children were also famous artists,Raphaelle Peale often painted still lifes of flowers,fru

          The technology of the North American Colonies did not differ strikingly from that Europe,but in one respect,the colonists enjoyed a great advantage.Especially by comparison with Britain,Americans had a wonderfully plentiful supply of wood.          The first colonists did not,as many people imagine,find an entire continent covered by a climax forest.Even along the Atlantic seaboard,the forest was broken at many points.Nevertheless,all sorts of fine trees abounded,and through the early colonial period,those who pushed westward encountered new forests.By the end of the Colonial era,the price of wood had risen slightly in eastern cities,but wood was still extremely abundant.          The availability of wood brought advantages that have seldom been appreciated.Wood was a foundation of the economy.Houses and all manner of buildings were made of wood to a degree unknown in Britain.Secondly,wood was used as a fuel for heatting and cooking.Thirdly,it was used as the source of impo

         Biomolecules are the carbon-containing compounds that make up the various parts of the living cell and carry out the chemical reactions that enable the cell to grow,maintain and reproduce itself,as well as store and use ebergy.The structure of each biomolecule determines what chemical reactions it is able to participate in;and hence,what role it plays in the cell's life processes.Nucleic acids,proteins,carbohydrates,and lipids are among the most important molecules to support the life processes of the cell.          The first class is nucleic acids,which are responsible for storing and transferring genetic information.They are enormous molecules made up of long strands of subunits,called bases that are arranged in a precise sequence.These bases ar"'read"by other molecules of the cell and used as a guide in making proteins.          Proteins are large molecules built up of small subunits called amino acids.Using only 20 different amino acids,a cell construct

      Lichens ,of whicch more than twenty thousand species have been named,are complex associations between certain fungi and certain algae.The lichen itself is not an organism;rather it is the morphological and biochemical product of the association.Neither a fungus nor an alga alone can produce a lichen. The intimate relationship between these two living components of a lichen was once erroneously thought to represent mutualism.In mutualistic relationships,both participants benefit.With lichens,however,it appears the fungus actually parasitizes the algae.This is one of the conclusions drawn from experiments in which the two components of lichens were separated and grown apart.       The intimate relationship between these two living components of a lichen was one erroneously thought to represent mutualism.In mutualistic relationships,both participants benefit.With lichens,however,it appears the fungus actually parasitizes the algae.This is one of the conclusions drawn from experimen
