The historical and cultural features of Guangdong highlight the shining history of the three major ethnic groups, maritime trade, and modern Guangdong, and demonstrate Guangdong’s role as the center of Lingnan culture, the birthplace of the Maritime Silk Road, the source of the modern democratic revolution, and the pioneer of reform and opening up. Unique cultural characteristics.
The earliest humans in Guangdong: In 1958, the skull fossil of the Maba Man was accidentally discovered in the crevices of the Shizishan limestone cave in Maba Town, Qujiang County, Shaoguan City, Guangdong Province. The Maba Man is the earliest ancient human discovered so far in Guangdong.

Along with the Maba Man skull, fossils of 19 animal species were discovered, including hyenas, giant pandas, and stegodons, which belong to the "giant panda-stegodon" fauna in South China.
Three major ethnic groups: Han residents in Guangdong can be mainly divided into three major ethnic groups: Guangfu, Hakka and Chaoshan according to differences in language and region. Cantonese people mainly live in the Pearl River Delta and Xijiang River Basin, and use Cantonese as the standard dialect; Chaoshan people mainly live in the eastern part of Guangdong, and use Chaoshan dialect as the standard dialect; Hakka people live in the northeastern region of Guangdong, and use Hakka as the standard dialect . The formation of the three major ethnic groups is the result of the long-term integration of the Han people in the Central Plains and the indigenous people in Lingnan. Large-scale integration began during the Qin Dynasty's expedition to Lingnan, and after three immigration upsurges during the Jin Dynasty, Song Dynasty, and the late Ming Dynasty, three major ethnic groups with their own characteristics in life customs and cultural awareness were gradually formed.

In 1757 (the 22nd year of Qianlong's reign in the Qing Dynasty), Emperor Qianlong only retained the Guangdong Customs for foreign trade, which was known as "one port of trade" in history. Guangzhou thus became the only foreign trading port in the country, and the Guangzhou Thirteenth Bank became the place that monopolized all of China's foreign trade.

What are the uses and hazards of lead?
Lead is the softest heavy metal with very low hardness and is easily alloyed with other metals. A large amount of lead is used to make lead-acid batteries, which are widely used in vehicles, airplanes, trains, tanks and other transportation vehicles and some lighting facilities. Lead has a high density and can block the passage of most X-rays and R-rays. It is often used to manufacture various radiation protection products.
Although lead has many uses in life, it and its dumping can cause damage to various tissues of the human body. Lead is easily inhaled from the respiratory tract or absorbed by the gastrointestinal tract, and slowly accumulates in the human body, causing chronic poisoning, and is especially likely to affect the growth and intellectual development of children.

They must swim to the surface of the sea every once in a while to breathe air, while fish can directly breathe oxygen in the water using their gills; and fish products The eggs are different. Whales are viviparous, and like humans, they rely on breast milk. Whales are endotherms, and their body temperatures remain constant, while fish are ectotherms. The most obvious point is that the whale's tail is horizontal and swings up and down when swimming, while the fish swings left and right.

However, in fact, crinoid is not a lily at all. Plants, like starfish and sea urchins, are echinoderms that grow on the seabed and have appeared as early as the distant Cambrian period. Crinoids have thick skeletons and were abundant in the Paleozoic oceans. Most crinoids were attached to the seafloor using soft stem nodes, with limbs attached to the top of the stem nodes, and the limbs were used to filter food from the water.
