importance of eating lower on the food chain
It is very important to eat lower levels of the food chain such as producers. Some examples of producers that are good to eat are plants and vegetables. We should also eat fruits such as apples and bananas. It is not only good for the environment, but it is also good for our personal health because most producers are healthy to eat. Beans and tofu is also good to eat.

why some animals/plants are stronger but weaker animals/plants thrive
Some large and strong animals such as a wooly mammoth or a dinosaur have become extinct in today's world but other animals such as cockroaches and plants such as fungi and lived to survive the millions of years of natural disasters. In my opinion the reason to this baffling question is that bigger animals are more prone to get wounded during natural disasters such as the ice age in the case of the dinosaurs but smaller plants and animals can be missed by these things. Cockroaches are also a fascinating type of animal that can withstand a nuclear bomb so that is also a big factor.

most important person in environmental science
I think out of all the people mentioned in chapter 3, the most important person to the cause of environmental science would have to be Audobon because although he only started the bird rescue movement, it also lead to the formation of the audobon society which does more than save birds in the environment. They do alot of work for the environment and even more all due to him.

endangered animals
An endangered species I think that we should save is the giant panda bear. The population of these animals are at its lowest and we should help save them from hunters and poachers. Pandas are rarely found in the wild but most are located in areas in China. Here is a rescue site link for various animals including the giant panda: http://www.webring.com/hub?ring=animalrescue

Differences between chaotic, orderly and complex
There are many differences between chaotic, orderly, and complex things in environmental science. Chaotic means it is random, orderly means it has patterns and complex can have patterns but they are more complicated. Many things are chaotic like when you drop a deck of cards it is chaotic. It is orderly when you drop a backpack because nothing may fall out of it.

How is environmental science different from other science like biology and chemistry
Environmental Science is different from other sciences such as biology and chemistry because in this science, there are things that are impossible to predict. Some things that are impossible to predict are things like the weather, earthquakes, etc. There are too many factors that it is impossible to compute the outcome. Another unique thing about environmental science is fractals and chaos theory. Fractals are things that repeat itself over and over by chance such as snowflakes or lightning.

Brain and Learning
The brain is the central power of the human body. It can store a lot of information as well as control the other parts of the body. The brain is necessary for a person to learn something new. It stores things in different parts of the brain. Some parts store memory, short and long term. Other parts store things like reaction and how to do something. Then there's also the part where it stores information you learn like math in school.
