In North America, there are four major deserts: the Great Basin, the Mojave, the Sonoran, and the Chihuahuan. All but the Great Basin are hot deserts located in Mexico and the southwestern part of the United States. The Great Basin covers parts of Idaho, Nevada, Oregon, and Utah, and is considered a cold desert.ost of the plants you'll see in the desert are species of cactus. You might come across yucca, aloe, octillo plants, or the tall saguaro cacti. A few animalsâmainly reptiles, like snakes and lizards, and amphibians, like frogs and toadsâare well adapted to the hot desert.
Xenon is used in flash lamps and arc lamps, and as a general anesthetic. The first excimer laser design used a xenon dimer molecule (Xe 2) as its lasing medium, and the earliest laser designs used xenon flash lamps as pumps.Xenon is also being used to search for hypothetical weakly interacting massive particles and as the propellant for ion thrusters in spacecraft.he first excimer laser design used a xenon dimer molecule (Xe 2) as its lasing medium, and the earliest laser designs used xenon flash lamps as pumps.

Alprazolam, available under the trade name Xanax (and sometimes known as xans or zans for short) is a short-acting anxiolytic of the benzodiazepine class. It is commonly used for the treatment of panic disorder, and anxiety disorders, such as generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) or social anxiety disorder (SAD). It was the 12th most prescribed medicine in the USA in 2010. Alprazolam, like other benzodiazepines, binds to specific sites on the GABAA receptor.
