Because of the unique habits in migration, feeding, and behavior of certain populations orca have been classified into several distinct population types. (Note: This term “type” should not be confused with the method of delineating different physical features and coloration in orcas which are referred to as “Type A”, “Type B”, etc. ). Residency types are becoming so divergent that “it is likely that O. orca will be split into a number of different species or at least subspecies over the next
inhabits large river/lake habitats, and is native to many Pacific drainages located in eastern Asia. It is also known as snail carp, Chinese black carp, Chinese roach, black amour, or black Chinese roach. They appear blackish brown with blackish grey fins with an elongated/laterally compressed body.

I have never been into art or liked the arts for that matter, I cannot draw to save my life and being creative with art brings my imagination to a halt. When I saw this project, I wasn’t sure what I would use to help make the art, most people I saw were using metals, but I wanted to do something different and that made me nervous. But I had an even harder time figuring out what I wanted to create. I had about a million ideas in my head, but had an extremely hard time looking at things that I found
While paddle boarding with friends after work, I looked down and saw a silhouette on the ocean floor that I had never seen before. I am a paddle board instructor and eco-tour guide, so I am familiar with the sea life in my local waterways. This could be something that I’ve never found or seen before, and I began to get super excited. I stopped paddling immediately. My friends were now a bit ahead of me as I continued to stare down, but curiosity got the best of me. We were at Stump Pass Beach State
Predator loss in the ocean is a growing problem in our world today. Sharks are the main loss of predators in the ocean, with a wide verity of species in the ocean Sharks sit at the top of the food chain. They live within the biome of the ocean which has different species living only in certain part of the ocean so the ocean has biomes within its self with shark species with almost all of it. There are many different biomes within the ocean depending on water temperature and the amount of sunlight
1. This class made me learn quite a lot. Though it was a course I have done in my under graduate, this class helped me to learn more about the networking. The class was interactive and fun, the lab sessions were very helpful. The project was one of the best parts of the whole course. It made me look into and study about various new protocols in networking and finally I could get an idea on how I could design a protocol by myself. The most important thing I learnt in this class is the detailed functions
they would fit on the launcher. They were made out of cardboard, we wanted them to be strong, but light. We placed three fins about 120 degrees apart around the circumference of the bottle so that their weight would be balanced. Three fins were selected because two we felt would not be stable enough, and four would increase weight to a degree we didn’t feel was necessary. Three fins are stable, as well as light. They were attached with duct tape. The first design involved the two liter bottle, with
Journal 1 In Chapters 3-6 in the novel Adventures of Huckleberry Fin, Huck uses satire to seem smart, to be funny, and cover up how hard is life is in society. An example of this satire frequently used throughout these chapters is the quote “Well, I got a good going-over in the morning from old Miss Watson on account of my clothes; but the widow she didn’t scold, but only cleaned off the grease and the clay, and looked so sorry I thought I would behave a while if I could,” (Twain 10). This quote
up to 100 miles a day, but are kept in a tank that’s 12 feet deep and 48 in diameter, they would need to swim 1400+ times back and forth in the pool. Dorsal Fin is very common as for 100% of males and a majority of females, it’s caused when the pool is so shallow the fin in above the surface causing gravity to apply force upon the orcas fin, this only happen to 1% of the wild population of orcas. The environment is appalling, but the food is another situation. When hungry they are given food but
black or brown, the albino variety is more common, which is also quite weird. They can be quite large, and can grow up to a foot! It is neotenic, meaning that even when it grows into an adult, it retains its juvenile traits. Those include its dorsal fin which runs along the length of its body and its feather-like external gills which protrude from the back of its head.
