Rabbits are small mammals in the family Leporidae of the order Lagomorpha, found in

several parts of the world. There are eight different genera in the family classified as rabbits,
including the European rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus), cottontail rabbits (genus Sylvilagus; 13
species), and the Amami rabbit (Pentalagus furnessi, an endangered species on Amami Oshima,
Japan). There are many other species of rabbit, and these, along with pikas and hares, make up
the order Lagomorpha. The male is called a buck and the female is a doe; a young rabbit is a
kitten or kit.
Rabbit habitats include meadows, woods, forests, grasslands, deserts and wetlands. Rabbits
live in groups, and the best known species, the European rabbit, lives in underground burrows, or
rabbits holes. A group of burrows is called warren.
More than half the world’s rabbits population resides in North America. They are also native
to southwestern Europe, Southeast Asia, Sumatra, some islands of Japan, and in parts of Africa
and South America. They are not naturally found in most Eurasia, where a number of species of
hares are present. Rabbits first entered South America relatively recently, as part of the Great
American Interchange. Much of the continent has just one species of rabbit, the tapeti, while
most of South America’s southern cone is without rabbits.

Dear Sir,
I understand that my payment is three weeks late, but that does not justify your collections
office’s actions. During the past five days I have received three telephone calls and four letters.
In addition, one of your representatives has contacted two of my relatives who have nothing to
do with my finances. By anyone’s definition this is harassment. I expect you to stop contacting
me every day and to stop calling my relatives.
In the meantime, please know that I plan to send you a payment within the next few days. The
money will reach your office in about a week.
Sincerely yours

Andrew Barkley

The cause of tooth decay is acid, which is produced by bacteria in the mouth. The acid removes
minerals from tooth enamel, allowing tooth decay to begin; the saliva in your mouth encourages
remineralization and Line neutralizes the acid. The rate at which bacteria in the mouth
produce acid depends on the amount of plaque on the teeth, the composition of the microbial
flora, and whether the bacteria of the plaque have been “primed” by frequent exposure to sugar.
To keep your teeth healthy, a regular dental hygiene program should be followed.
Removing plaque with a toothbrush and dental floss temporarily reduces the numbers of bacteria
in the mouth and thus reduces tooth decay. It also makes the surfaces of the teeth more
accessible, enabling saliva to neutralize acid and remineralise lesions. If fluoride is present in
drinking water when teeth are forming, some fluoride is incorporated into the enamel of the
teeth, making them more resistant to attack by acid. Fluoride toothpaste seems to act in another
way, by promoting the remineralization of early carious lesions.
In addition to a regular dental hygiene program, a good way to keep your teeth healthy is to
reduce your intake of sweet food. The least cavity- causing way to eat sweets is to have them
with meals and not between. The number of times you eat sweets rather than the total amount
determines how much harmful acid the bacteria in your saliva produce. But the amount of sweets
influences the quality of your saliva. Avoid, if you can, sticky sweets that stay in your mouth a
long time. Also try to brush and floss your teeth after eating sugary foods. Even rinsing your
mouth with water is effective. Whenever possible, eat foods with fiber, such as raw carrot sticks,
apples, celery sticks, etc., that scrape off plaque, acting as a toothbrush. Cavities can be greatly
reduced if these rules are followed when eating sweets.
