however, it is used as a secondary language in some parts of Lithuania, Russia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, and Ukraine. This is a result of migration, resettlements, and border changes from the Yalta Agreement following World War II. Today, Polish is the third most widely spoken Slavic language.
LESSON 6F
THE MAGNA CARTA
    Lasting Effects of the Magna Carta The Magna Carta greatly influenced the United States Constitution, the Declaration of Independence, and the Bill of Rights during the writing of these documents. The third clause from the Magna Carta, which stated accused persons shall not be imprisoned until found guilty by their peers is perhaps the most obvious influence, as it appears in the Fifth Amendment of the Bill of Rights. Also, the first clause included the principle of the separation of church and state.
READING
    Reading Disorders Reading disorders are the most common forms of learning disabilities. Developmental reading disorder, or dyslexia, is a learning disability that impairs the ability to comprehend accurately in areas such as reading, spelling, and speaking. Dyslexia does not interfere with the ability to think and understand ideas or affect the intelligence of a person. Many common symptoms of dyslexia are having difficulty rhyming, having difficulty recognizing written words, and difficulty determining what a simple sentence means.
SCIENTIFIC NOTATION
    Engineering Notation Engineering notation is a form of scientific notation used in civil and mechanical engineering. It is slightly different than scientific notation. In engineering notation, the powers of ten are restricted to be only multiples of three. This is because they are actually powers of a thousand, so instead of writing 1,0002, it looks like 106.
THE DIGESTIVE SYSTEM
    Other Organs The liver, gallbladder, and pancreas also play a key role in the digestive system. These organs send digestive juices to the small intestine. The pancreas is responsible for sending juices that digest protein and fat. Bile, a substance created by the liver but stored in the gallbladder, absorbs fat in the bloodstream. The nutrient-rich blood is then sent to the liver, where waste is filtered out.
