Antibiotic works as pesticides by pressing or break the chain of bacteria’s metabolism. Nevertheless, antibiotic is different with
disinfectant in the process to kills bacteria. Disinfectant kills bacteria by creating an unnatural environment for germs to live.

body. Most of eagles are the old resident of this world. All species of eagle include into Falconiformes ordo. Almost all of
Falconiformes are carnivore. Eagle has along life and low reproduction. All eagles are mating in monogamy.

travel as far as 4000 miles from the area of Central Asia to Africa region. Bone in the eagles (and other big birds as albatross or
vulture) have the nature of pneumatic (the skeleton has a cavity filled by air). In addition to the nature of the bone, the ability to
fly long-distance is also supported by a modification of muscle and wings. Its muscle weight on the eagle is located at the
centre of its gravitation, super-sized wide wings to ease the flow of air raising his body. In addition it can also make an eagle
capable to fly without flapping their wings. We can see it when the eagle soaring in the air, stretches its wings widely without
flapping. It usually flaps its wings to increase the speed of flying, especially when they are hunting prey.

Eagle is warm-blooded animal. Its wings and body are filled by the midrib feathers. As bird, an eagle breed by means of eggs
that it has a hard shell in a nest he has made. She kept her child until it is able to fly.

Flood
Flooding is a natural phenomenon that is common in a region that is fed by many streams. Within the scope of comprehensive
talks, flooding is a part of the hydrologic cycle, that is on the water on Earth’s surface is moving into the sea. In the hydrologic
cycle it can be seen that the volume of water flowing on the surface of the Earth is predominantly determined by the rate of
rainfall, and the rate of water infiltration into the soil.

Rainwater reached the Earth’s surface and flows on the surface of the Earth, moving towards the sea to form the ravines.
Ravines have started in the area of the highest in a region, can be mountainous terrain, mountains or hills, and ended up on the
beach when the water flows into the sea. Flooding can also occur in rivers, when flow exceeds the capacity of the drains,
especially in the gutter of the river.
River flood can be caused by many factors. First, flood is caused by the duration. Deposition of rain or snow that is melt quickly
exceed the capacity of the river channel. Caused by torrential monsoon rains, hurricanes and tropical depressions, outdoor
wind and rain affect snow heat. Drainage unexpected obstacles such as landslides, ice, or debris can result in flooding slowly
upstream obstacles. Second, river flood is caused by the speed. Its is included inundation from convective precipitation (large
thunderstorms) or sudden release of upstream sediment that is formed behind the dam, landslide, or glacier.

There are two types of impact of flood. The first is the primary impact. It is the physical damage. Flood can damage various
types of structures, including bridges, cars, buildings, sewer systems, highways, and cannal. The second type of the secondary
impact. It is water supplies that flood may contaminate the water. Clean drinking water is scarce. Next, flood causes disease. It
is unsanitary conditions. The flood may spread water-borne diseases. Then, flood causes scarcity of agricultural produce that is
caused by crop failures. However, lowlands near rivers depend on the stream sediment due to flooding in order to increase
local soil minerals. Then, flood may cause the scarcity of species that can not afford to die because they can not breathe. After
that, floodmay cause transportation link broken so that it is difficult to send emergency aid to people in need. While the long
term of impact of flood is the economic difficulties. The flooding settlements cause damages; in the tourism sector, declining
interest of tourists; the cost of rebuilding; food shortages leading to higher prices, etc.

However, floods also can bring many benefits, such as replenishing groundwater, nourish and provide nutrients to the soil. The
flood waters provide enough water in the dry and semi-dry erratic rainfall throughout the year. The flood waters bargaining
plays an important role in balancing the ecosystem in the river corridor and a major factor in balancing the diversity of living
things on the plains. Flood adds a lot of nutrients to lakes and rivers which are increasingly promoting the fishing industry in the
coming years. It is also because it matches the flood plains for breeding fish (little predation and nutrients).

Preventing and combating floods can not be done by government alone or individual persons only. It takes commitment and
cooperation of various parties to avoid cities of the great flood. The actions that can be done including discard the water
absorption holes, increase the green open space, and change public behavior that no longer makes the river as a giant trash
bin. Elevating houses can indeed save our possessions when the flood happens. Human-induced floods, people also should be
together to save the city.
Participation of all elements of society must be done in organized and coordinated ways in order to be implemented effectively.
A community or organization should be established to take measures early and organize community participation in flood
prevention. Flood prevention is done gradually, from flood prevention before handling during floods, and recovery after the
flood. These stages are in a cycle of continuous activities for flood prevention. Flood prevention activities are followed a cycle
(life cycle), which starts from the flood, and examine these as inputs for flood prevention before going back. Prevention is done
thoroughly, in the form of physical activity, such as the construction of flood control in the basin until the flood plain areas and
non-physical activities, such as management of land, use the flood early warning system.
Doctor is a popular job. It takes a great responsibility to work as a doctor. Minor mistakes made by a doctor can bring the lost of a
