Amphibian

Today I’m going to study the Tunisa. The Tunisa is a vicious amphibian predator. It lives in the South American rainforests and Pacific ocean, but today I’ll be in the rainforests to study one of these animals. It is quite hard to spot a Tunisa because of its camouflage but i've just spotted one. When it’s not blending into its surroundings its main color is green on its scales. On its underside it is a light brown. It also has a sharp point at its back end that is a tannish color. It has very…

chemicals we use to use were very dangerous. People use to use them on there lawns. Farmers also used DDT to keep the bugs away from there animals and crops. the insects soon trembled and died. Fish turned belly up in the streams. Frogs and other amphibians were killed. Bald eagles ate the dead fish, and when they had their eggs with shells they were too thin to incubate. But when the author went up to that one farmer and told him what harm he’s…

synonym to its more specific name: Amphibians. Both of these names are umbrella terms for these animals. Yet, there are many different varieties of frogs such as the Turtle Frog and the Clawed Frog. Although they are both frogs they have different habitats they originate from and different up bringing’s. Frogs live all around the world in contradistinctive environments. Turtle Frogs live in Australia, which has a dry and sandy climate. This is the type…

Introduction: Age related change is one of the most common causes of vision loss around the world, affecting between 30 to 50 million people worldwide. As suggestive of the name, age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is most prevalent in adults over the age of 60. Of the cases of AMD, about 90 percent are dry AMD for which no effective treatment exists [1]. The retina is the nerve tissue lining the inside of the eye which begins the conversion of light into vision. The macula,…

to focus on 375 Million Years as it was a period when the transformation took place from fish to fish with limb. The fish without characteristics of amphibians were found in 385 million year old rocks and the amphibians without limbs was discovered in 365 million year old rocks. Therefore, the intermediary fossil which has both fishes' and amphibians' characteristics, is possible to be discovered in 375 million year old rocks. Through gradual mild pressure and low heat, the sedimentary rocks…

in a negative way. • Salt in ponds and lakes prevents aquatic plants and animals from getting their nutrients. • High concentrations of salt in freshwater has harmful effects on the growth, reproduction, and survival of invertebrates, fish, and amphibians. • Effects of salt include decreases in biodiversity, decrease in fish numbers and types, and higher mortality rates among organisms that rely on marine life for food. Argument #2: It damages trees, soil and vegetation. • The…

of islands, continental islands once connected to a continent, and oceanic island are those island that never connected continental land. Therefore, Jerry Coyne analyzes how many of the oceanic islands were, “lacking the native freshwater fish, amphibians, reptiles, and land mammals,” at many of these oceanic islands. Furthermore, is the effect when introducing non-native animals to these oceanic islands, because many of those animals over-run the island. Hawaii is a very good example of this,…

textbook. Overall, this novel tells an interesting story about finding the missing links between fish and modern humans, while explaining the reasons for evolution. The first section of the novel focuses on a transitional species between fish and amphibians known as Tiktaalik . This creature had had the body of a fish, but unlike other fish, this creature had a flat head and eyes facing upward. This would be an evolutionary advantage for an organism transitioning between water and land.…

Regeneration of the axolotl is dependent upon the blastema (Aguilar et al 2015). The blastema formation takes place during dedifferentiation. (Satoh et al 2010). The blastema is formed from progenitor cells in the uninjured limb by re-expressing embryonic genes. The origin of these blastema cells are controversial, as many have a hypothesis of where are originally derived. (Whited & Tabin 2009). For instance, Aguilar et al (2015) suggests that the formation of the blastema is dependent on nerve…
