| Summary/Abstract |
What kind of fish can grind coral into sand? How did ancient people form glass from quartz pebbles? How does a mirror reflect an image? This series explores the causes and effects that shape our world. From the underwater volcanoes that sprout into islands, to the rushing waterfalls that spark electric currents, this series demonstrates how both natural and man-made phenomena occur.
