    I’ve chosen to critique Winsor McCay’s Little Nemo and Walt Disney’s Plane Crazy. Of the animation techniques, staging and squash and stretch are, for me, the most evident in Little Nemo. While the scenes transition into the next, McCay skillfully leads the viewers’ eyes. For example, as the spiky-haired "Little Imp" character appears from Flip the clown's puff of cigar smoke, Flip's arm swings as he walks back, emphasizing Little Imp’s entrance. Similarly, as Nemo appears, the other characters’

    From clownfish and sea anemone, to barnacles and whales, to mosquitos and mammals, organisms are constantly exhibiting symbiosis. Simply put, symbiosis can be described as a close and typically long-term relationship between two different biological organisms involving physical and/or biochemical contact. Some symbiotic interactions may be facultative, or optional, while other interactions may be obligate, or essential to the survival of both organisms (Yukalov et al., 2012). The main types of symbiotic

    This is called a symbiotic relationship because both animals help each other out. For example, if a clownfish and sea anemone the clownfish will chase away predators, like a bodyguard, and the sea anemone will let the clownfish live in its tentacles. The clownfish also will give the sea anemone extra food that the clownfish ate. When a sea anemone makes friends with algae it is a little bit different. The sea anemone will let the algae live in its tentacles and

    Five different ways organisms make sounds would be by sonar (echolocation), drumming, clicking, beating, and singing. First, bats use sonar, also known as echolocation, to help them navigate through their surroundings and catch food. A sound wave is produced from the bat and returns as an echo. A bat’s sonar helps them comprehend the size, location, and the direction the object is moving in by listening to the echoes that return. Second, termites, as well as many other animals and insects, use drumming

    that of the clownfish and the sea anemone. Their relationship is mutualism/symbiotic. The sea anemone is a sea predator that likes to eat fish. The clownfish on the other hand is a relatively small fish that is usually hunted by bigger fish. So to survive in the dangerous reef environment the clownfish evolved to produce a layer of mucus on its skin to be immune to the anemones deadly sting. Therefore the clown fish can live in the anemone. Now the fish that want to eat the clownfish get stung and

    sheltered reefs normally in a pair. Clown fish are the only fish that do not get stung by the tentacles of the sea anemone. They have a slimy mucus covering them that protects from the sea anemone. However, the covering can be wiped off, allowing the clownfish to be stung and possibly killed. Clown fish deal with the salinity and temperature by migrating to the more dangerous parts of the ocean where not many other creatures live. This helps them stay alive, and get the nutrients they need to survive

    polyps together (Jaap, 212-213). Generally coral make up the vast majority of all reefs, but soft bodied organisms like anemones litter the sea bed as well. Coral reefs’ seemingly eternal balance with man is now in jeopardy, as small things like clownfish infertility and massive coral population loss begin to snowball, eventually leading to human casualties. These vibrant structures made up of millions of years of development do not face potential threats from global warming. The existing threats

    In the comparison of the types of two-species interactions, Predation and Parasitism are the most similar by far, since both of them have a +/- interaction pattern, where one part benefits and one is taken from. Examples of Predation would be a fox hunting a rabbit, as the fox benefits by gaining food and the rabbit is disadvantaged by dying, or being seriously/ fatally injured; another example would be a cheetah hunting an antelope in the same respects of the fox and the rabbit. Good examples of

    excited that you have decided to let us students help pick the name, mascot, and color of the new school because I believe it is great to have the students involved in the county. If I were to choose, I would name the school Nemo, make the mascot a clownfish, and have the colors be blue and orange. First of all, I would name the school Nemo because I love one of the themes in the movie Finding Nemo. In the movie Dory sings “just keep swimming,” until they get to Sydney, which I think could be an important
