Sponge

understanding of Hirudo’s blood feeding behavior; more specifically, the study was designed to answer the question: how do different volumes of blood affect Hirudo’s thirst? By soaking a sponge with different volumes of cow blood and measuring the time it took for the Hirudo to attach to the blood soaked sponge, the experiment yielded results that help explain whether or not there was a connection between the amount of blood available to Hirudo for feeding and the time it takes Hirudo to attach to

order and YOU!! had to ruin them!" Squidwad screams with intense anger. "Hey! What about me?! Why do you never include me in your conversations!" Patrick says in aggony. "Because sponge bob here is the one and only culprit idiot!" squidward explains. " Well what was so imprtant about that wierd paper holder squidward?" Sponge bob questions. "Thats not a "paper holder" it's called a

experiments to see if can extract oil from water. I will use a variety of materials to see which one works the best. The sponges worked the best at soaking up the oil. The cheesecloth and plastic cups were somewhat successful. The fishnet with newspaper, coffee filters, and laundry detergent powder were not successful. I think my hypothesis was proven because the sponges soaked up most of the oil. If I could expand

The Effect of Surfaces on Mealworm Locomotion Aim: To determine the effect that a surface has on the speed and difficulty of mealworm travel. Introduction: The mealworm is the larva of the mealworm beetle which is a specie of darkling beetle (Animals.mom.me, 2016). The darkling beetle has a metamorphic life cycle that begins with an egg hatching into a small mealworm over a four week period (Sandhyarani, 2016). The second life stage of a darkling beetle is the larva stage where the egg will hatch

plastic container, with sponges, zip ties and balloons. We put the sponges in the container a put the egg in there. We had the egg in the middle, so the egg would not move around. We put zip ties around it to keep the top on and we tied the balloons on to the zip ties, the zip ties were around the contain. Our egg didn’t crack, it landed safe. The balloons were the suspension, which keep it from having a hard impact. We dropped our egg twice the first time it didn’t work, the sponges didn’t help it. So

The revolution of technology has made it possible to discover new medical drugs better than centuries before. Since the dawn of time, mankind has always sought out ways to protect, heal and even prolong their life from even the most death threating of diseases, but as quick as new medical cures arrive on shelfs, so too does mankind’s resistance to these new medical drugs as well. Most drugs today are derived from plant molecules found on land; such as, aspirin from willow bark, and morphine from

is contained in that largeness. In the second part of the second stanza, “As Sponges- Buckets- do-” (Dickinson 8), she compares the brain to the sponge and the ocean to the bucket. A sponge is smaller than a bucket, but the bucket does not have the same ability as the sponge. The vast ability of the brain to soak up knowledge of everything like a sponge does water. This intake of information is similar in nature to a sponge being immersed in

bstractThe oceans are the source of a large group ofstructurally unique natural products that are mainly accu-mulated in invertebrates such as sponges, tunicates,bryozoans, and molluscs. Several of these compounds(especially the tunicate metabolite ET-743) show pro-nounced pharmacological activities and are interestingcandidates for new drugs primarily in the area of cancertreatment. Other compounds are currently being devel-oped as an analgesic (ziconotide

Osmosis is the passage of a solvent like water through a semi permeable membrane, for example say someone has a sponge for cleaning and they dip it into a bucket of water, that sponge will take in water because there is a greater concentration on the outside of the sponge then the inside of the sponge and from that he/she will notice that the amount of water increases inside of the sponge. In 1748 a scientist named Jean-Antoine Nulet was the first person to ever record osmosis.

Sponge Fun Facts: Sea Sponges have been in the ocean for over 500 million years They can live to be 200 years old They can filter an amount of water 100,000 times bigger then them a day Sponges can produce chemicals to protect themselves from being eaten, and some of the chemicals can be used to help treat cancer! There are about 5,000 different species of sponges Echinoderms Fun Facts: Echinoderms don't have any blood An Echinoderm missing an arm can regenerate it back Echinoderms don't
