Thank you for viewing my presentation on SlideShare!

This website was very helpful for me when writing the blogs because I was able to upload the projects , i.e. roots tracing

and attributes and show them on blogger. The bonus is seeing how many views you have!

This is a great website and I highly recommend it for easy uploading and embedding and also using it as a research tool

for a project or paper.
