Itâs possible to release this energy, and actually harness it, by splitting specific types of atoms apart into multiple fragments â a process known as nuclear fission. All you need to break apart a uranium-235 atom is a slow-moving free neutron.
Country *. Gorillas typically live in the lowland tropical rainforests of Central Africa, although some subspecies are found in montane rainforest (between 1,500 and 3,500 meters) and in bamboo forest (between 2,500 to 3,000 meters).
Western lowland gorillas are native to several areas of Africa including Angola, Congo, and Cameroon. This is the type of gorilla that is frequently seen in zoos. The western lowland is the smallest of the great apes. Adults are about 5 feet 7 inches (1.7 meters) tall and weigh 400 pounds (180 kg). As of 2008, there were an estimated 125,000 western lowland gorillas living in Africa.
