Plant predators, the vicious herbivores of planet Earth have many different adaptations that help ensure their survival in the wild. There are many different types of plant predators who have adapted to survive and live by solely eating plant material. One in such being that of the Tapir. The Tapir is said to be the largest mammal residing in the American rainforests. They feed on a variety of plants and plant material to guarantee that they do not become poisoned by eating too much of a certain…
A 18 month giraffe was healthy and living at the Copenhagen zoo. He was given his favorite meal of rye bread by his keeper. His keeper lured him away from the other group of giraffes. The giraffe was hungry so he followed him to get his favorite treat. He bend down his long neck to take the rye bread from the keeper’s hand. Once he bends down, he was shot in the head by a vet in front of a large crowing, including fascinated-looking child. He was useless for breeding due to his genes being too…

In the expansive landscape, mountains spring up from the earth with a majestic presence that shows their dominance and power in the light grey of the limestone. The jagged curves of the mountains demonstrate the timeless beauty of nature and the earth’s geological past, which slowly transformed the savanna. The sky witnessed these changed over the centuries…
Aliza Crigler Rachel McTavish Intro to Anthropology December 6, 2016 Archaeology: Uncovering Us By definition archaeology is the study of human history and prehistory through the excavation of sites, and the analysis of artifacts and other physical remains. Or in other words, the study of what makes us as humans what we are today. The anthropologists tasked with uncovering this information are known as archaeologists. The study of archaeology is used to help people today better understand what…
“Yes I know of the liger which is a cross between a tiger and a lion.” Following up on that thought I asked “So can any two species interbreed?” To which Layla replied “Well they have to be similar in DNA I think… A hamster can’t have a baby with a giraffe.” I attempted to then go back to the original question of how a species evolves by asking “So does the liger become a new species? Or is it just a hybrid of two species?” Layla answered with “I think it becomes a new species…but then there are…
How does the gene code works to control variation within a species: Genes control variation by coding for certain traits inside an organism. Those codes are adenine, cytosine, guanine and thymine. All of these four codes are acids and these acids depends on the variation within a species. This is how it makes an organism change the way it look physically. The four simple coded message codes for everything like eye color to height. Genes codes for many traits and they are important in…
The four forces of evolution are mutation, gene flow, genetic drift, and natural selection. Mutation is when a change happens during replication of DNA. It is when the copy of the original DNA is not replicated completely correctly. There are multiple types of mutation including substitution, deletion, duplication, insertion, nonsense mutations, missense mutation, frameshift, and repeat expansion. Another force of evolution, gene flow, also called migration is exactly that.…
