Bald Eagle Interview Script

Anna: (Eccentric voice) Tonight! On Bald Eagle Media, we have two special guests! Let me introduce Mr. President and The First Lady. (Audience clapping) I am your host, AB in the house! (Dabs) Now, let’s get on with the show. Everyone at the studio thanks you for coming to our neck of the woods for this video. We realize it was a far fly from Washington D.C., but we are so glad you could make it.

The First Lady: Oh, it is our pleasure! We have relatives here in Missouri, making it worth the fly. An added bonus was our flight speed- tracking between 75 and 99 miles per hour we made good time.

Mr. President: (Tapping The First Lady on the shoulder) Now don’t share our secrets, we don’t want to get in trouble from sky patrol… (Audience laughing)

President: Yes indeed!

Anna: Question one: what is your greatest tip for surviving in the wild?

The First Lady: Whenever I find myself in a tricky situation I resort to the tools I was given- my eyes, my beak, and my claws. These are our greatest adaptations.

Anna: Explain what you mean by adaptations and what these tools do to benefit you.

Mr. President: Let me interject-- an adaptation is a special skill which helps an animal to survive and do everything it needs to do.

The First Lady: For example, our superior eyesight helps us find food. Our sharpened claws help us catch our food. Lastly, our curved beaks help us eat our food by enabling us to rip the skin.

Mr. President: We know this may sound disgusting, but this is the way we have adapted for a number of years. (Shrugs)

Anna: Describe your coloring and your habitat.

Mr. President: We have a white head and a brown body. We are three feet long and have a wingspan of eight feet!

Anna: Wow! That is larger than me, standing at four feet eleven inches.

The First Lady: We live all over North America in locations with water bodies. The water bodies are where we catch our food including small mammals, birds, and mainly,

    In May of 2018, Melania Trump went to Walter Reed Military Medical Center to “treat a benign kidney condition.” This could mean a multitude of things. She could have kidney stones, cyst, or a benign tumor. With our current President, there was immediate media speculation when after 4 days, Melania was still not released from the hospital. (https://www.cnn.com/2018/05/17/health/melania-trump-hospital-stay-day-4/index.html) Some say that the public has a right to know what is going on with the President health-wise.…

    Science Explanation and Added Information Adaptations: 0. (No Pigment - Human): We added in this adaptation to increase the level of survivability of humans. We thought that a reduction in pigment (or increase amount of pheomelanin which causes light skin and hair) would lead to less color in the skin and in the hair (or extreme white hair and skin) which will blend in into the surroundings. With this adaptation, these humans will be less likely to stand out in the snow and they will have and easier time catching their prey. Without this the human would stand out like a paint stain on a white shirt.…

    A short YouTube video by Hank Green provides an easily understood run down of evolutionary adaptations. Green gives examples of evolutionary traits in starfish, octopi and humans. For starfish, Green uses the evolution of the starfishes’ eyes. Some species of starfish have evolved eyes that allow them to find food more easily than those species that have evolved without them. Green also relates how some octopi have evolved with copper and the protein hemocyanin in their blood which combine to make oxygen transport more efficient.…

    Animals At Different Stages Of Evolution It has been proven that animals can change at different stages of evolution. This is, because of environmental change and isolation of groups of organisms and this is the main important role in evolution which has caused animals to change and is still changing. Environmental change is a change in the environment which an organism must adapt to survive. Change of the environment, can be really slow and take time, for example when mountains and deserts form and this will cause some organisms to die and may cause new species to evolve.…

    The two organisms darwin studied after the voyage to the Galapagos islands were earthworms and pigeons. For earthworms, he studied how the earthworms helped with planting food and how they worked with the soil. He realized the earthworms get more excited to eat cherries and carrots, rather than raw meats. For pigeons, he bred many different kinds of pigeons and was very enthusiastic on the outcome. They became “ fancier” says Charles.…

    The goal of this lesson was to describe how beneficial variations called adaptations influence an organism’s survival. I learned that animals adapt to survive an specific environment. I know this because, we did an activity where we had a spoon, a binder clip, tweezers, and a scissor to represent a bird’s peak and to see how each of these materials help to pick up paper clips, rubber bands, toothpicks, and macaronis which represented food. Each material was good at picking up food.…

    ON PUFFINS AND THEIR OPTIMIZATION FOR DUAL LOCOMOTION BY B. SIDELL ABSTRACT -- Puffins, one of the few wing-propelled diving birds, are specialized into a specific niche. By balancing the optimization of their bodies for locomotion between the two media of air and sea water created a unique anatomy for a bird. The evolution of Auks, which includes the puffin, shows a mixture of characteristics similar to those of the ultimate diving bird, the penguin, and the large-winged flyers, such as the pelican. Wing-propelled diving has evolved numerous times in the history of birds, each time finding a unique benefit to their species.…

    Vestigial Evolution

    • 843 Words
    • 4 Pages

    Ranging from anatomical aspects of wisdom teeth and ear muscles to the behavioral palmar grasp reflex and goosebumps, to the molecular pseudogenes, human vestiges are quintessential imperfections of human evolution (Vieth, 2010). Synonymously referred to as evolutionary “leftovers,” vestigial structures are residual features derived from an organism's predecessors that have lost most or all of its ancestral function (“Evidence for Evolution,” 2016). The existence of vestigial structures is often relative to its lack of selective pressures since vestigial structures do not directly cause harm or affect the survival of the organism (“Evidence of Evolution,” n.d.). However, as reflected in the changed and reduced purpose of a fly’s second pair…

    Where innumerable others have failed over the past months, years, decades, Meryl Streep looks to have really struck a nerve with Donald Trump at the Golden Globe awards last night. Not by simply criticising the president-elect for the bullying, potentially violent culture he threatens to bring to American public life. Many have done that before, with equally accomplished thespian delivery, including Hugh Laurie earlier that evening (“I accept this award on behalf of psychopathic billionaires everywhere”). Streep built on that sentiment in her acceptance speech for the Cecil B DeMille award, condemning Trump’s mockery of a disabled reporter in a speech in 2015. But Streep’s masterstroke was to characterise Trump’s antics as…

    A dog, cat, and any other mammal you see today have a common ancestor with you and other humans. Scientists believe that evolution took place and can be proven through the homologous structures of prehistoric/modern whales and other mammals and DNA comparisons between species of mammals. The advancement of the whale species and their bone structures is an example of how evolution takes place in mammals. From the film “Morphed: When Whales Had Legs,” I took notes of how prehistoric whale species adapted to their environment and evolved.…
