most marine organisms like echinoderms and cnidarians (Quinn, 2016). In many cases, the optimum temperature of growth increased 1-6°C, which created harmful effects on stages of development (Quinn, 2016). In some cases such as the American lobster (Homarus americanus), warming of the ocean had caused smaller body sizes (Le Bris et al., 2016). Even though there is some research that showed that the warm temperature could also benefit the lobster’s population, most of their population has declined in

presence of these structures which are known to produce chemical signals in conjunction with the release of their urine. In the lobster Homarus Americanus, urine signals are used as a form of chemical communication, males use urine in the determination of dominance over other males as well as to allow females choice of dominant males. On the other hand Homarus Americanus females urine actually reduces the incidence of male aggression and increases male mating behavior. This article is more focused

Being considerate toward everybody and everything is the ideal goal that everybody hopes to achieve. Though the idea of being considerate is different depending on the person so reaching that point in the world is impossible to achieve since there is no baseline for that, we have many competing ideas as to what that could be. Some people see being considerate as being thoughtful of other people but others will see it as a deeper meaning with being courteous toward all living things on Earth and their

“Consider the Lobster: It’s Not All Festive” In the article “Consider the Lobster”, David Wallace uses rhetorical strategies such as logical and emotional appeal, to persuade his audience of cooking gurus and top-notch chefs that the act of brutally killing an animal is morally wrong. Often times these acts are looked over because of the demand for food and the social aspect that often comes along with it. Wallace forces readers to think about these acts through the article using these rhetorical

In the essay “Consider the Lobster”, David Foster Wallace communicates his experience in the Main Lobster Festival as a writer for a food magazine called “Gourmet”. In this essay, he explores the impact the festival had on him as he tries to question the morals of eating lobsters. Wallace initially makes it seem as the festival is a place of fun and celebration as he describes the entertainment: concerts, carnival rides, lobster-themed food, lobster-themed clothes, and lobster-themed toys (50). In

In his essay Consider the Lobster, it’s apparent what David Foster Wallace is trying to tell his audience: we should really think about the lobster’s point of view before cooking and eating it. Wallace uses multiple rhetorical strategies to get his point across, including pathos and ethos. His essay is very good in how it gets its point across, and how it forces even the largest lobster consumers to truly contemplate how the lobster might react being boiled alive. It brings up many controversial

outputs of central pattern generators to alter the rhythmic pattern of an animal’s movements (i.e. walking, breathing, and heartbeat). One of the most abundant neurochemical messengers, neuropeptides can be clearly studied in the lobster Homarus americanus. Homarus americanus has long served as an essential animal model for physiological and behavioral studies. Despite living in the water, the lobster is considered to have a sophisticated nervous system, where the heart is controlled by a central power

To fully understand the technological and social developments associated with Maine’s lobstering industry, it is first essential to understand the anatomy of the lobster. Scientifically classified as Homarus americanus, the Maine lobster is a crustacean native to the rocky coastal waters of Maine which is the most northern state on the east coast of the United States of America. While many types of aquatic creatures consume baby lobsters, humans are the main predators of fully developed lobsters

On the coast of Maine, the dull roar of boat engines can be heard beginning at 3 a.m as captains and their crews set out in the pursuit of homarus americanus, a species otherwise known as the Maine lobster. Participants of this industry are fiscally motivated to endure unfavorable weather conditions and long hours, so that they may maximize yearly harvests. Due to their combined efforts this profession can be highly lucrative, allowing lobstermen to obtain an average household income of approximately

or dehydration because the osmolarity of their hemolymph dictates that of the environment. Question The lobsters which were put in tanks of varying salinity adjusted their hemolymph osmolarity to that of the external environment, making Homarus americanus an osmoconformer. The tank which had the lowest salinity
