By analyzing 80 proxy records from around the globe (generally with resolutions better than 500 years) the authors are able to evaluate the changes
occurring during different time periods in order to characterize the spatial and temporal structure of the deglacial evolution.
This 25 question web quest delves into many
different moral and political issues that

time period and is an excellent Segway to transition from teaching the Industrial revolution to the early 20th century.
Early development consists of critical
periods during which children are vulnerable to exposures.34 Delays in children's development
occur cumulatively and start as early as conception, which supports arguments for early investments.35 The impact of
different nutrients on children's development depends on
timing, dose and duration of deficiencies.8, 36 Parenting practices and home environments also influence child development and may either accentuate or attenuate the effects of poverty, which directly affects child outcomes.37 Thus, potential intervention effects can vary according to
timing, exposures and environmental conditions.38 For these reasons, it is important to consider trajectories of child development across a spectrum of ages, not just any one age.39
