Box jellyfish Nomenclature "Box jellyfish" and "sea wasp" are common names for the highly venomous Chironex fleckeri. However, these terms are ambiguous, as "sea wasp" and "marine stinger" are sometimes used to refer to other jellyfish. Anatomy "Cubomedusae", from Ernst Haeckel's Kunstformen der Natur, 1904 The medusa form of a box jellyfish has a squarish, box-like bell. From each of the four lower corners of this hangs a short pedalium or stalk which bears one or more long, slender, hollow…

gives people the sense of taste and, partially the sense of smell. Teeth are small, tough, whitish compositions made of calcium found in the mouth. Their main purpose is to break down food by chewing it and destroying it so the food can be ready for digestion. We clean our teeth so we do not get them infected or dirty from something. Sometimes, however we can get diseases from the teeth. We can protect ourselves from these diseases in many different ways. The toothbrush is an important part of…

Title: What effect does temperature have on the pepsin when breaking down tofu Introduction: This practical looking for the change that temperature has on the enzyme activity of pepsin on tofu. Enzymes act as catalysts and help quicken the process of breaking down foods that are called substrates, in digestive systems(Rader, A., 2016). In this experiment the enzyme is pepsin and it breaks down proteins into peptides, it is a common in the digestive system and helps breakdown the proteins that…

or digestive tract in addition to partner structures. We find that the ‘canal’ consist of the oral cavity, pharynx, esophagus and crop depending on the bird. Then there is the stomach, proventriculu, gizzards, both small and large intestine -Bird Digestion. The functions are vast The digestive system in birds include many organs that perform specific functions beginning with the first peck of food from the mouth or beak and ending with waste from the opening of the vent. For birds it is said the…

First step is ingested food is taken into the mouth where it is torn into smaller physical parts by the teeth. The salivary enzymes; amylase and lipase are activated beginning the chemical breakdown of food. Salivary amylase divides starch into smaller glucose molecules. Physically the saliva hydrates and compacts the food for ideal propulsion through the pharynx and esophagus. Propulsion is activated voluntarily when we swallow; the tongue moves towards the hard palate of the mouth thus pushing…

The situation which occurred with Luke occurs a lot in college towns due to the amount of partying that happens in college towns. Most Universities all have a common nickname which is party town. There are many factors which influence people to drink and eventually lead to binge drinking. Binge drinking is the pattern of drinking alcohol that brings the persons BAC to .08 grams or above. Which means for men they consume at least five drinks or more in a two hour span. For women they consume four…

Aromatic plants bear essential oils which are fragrant and so are named ‘Aromatic’. These plants retain their fragrant components in specialised cells and tissues of organs even after drying. Oil may be present in external glands as epidermal cells or their modification such as ‘Secretory Hair’ or may be present internally throughout the plant forming Schizogenous formation which on dissolution of surrounding cells forms Schizolysogenous gland which further grow into long canals. Secretion such…

The gastrointestinal system is the system that is used to break down food and absorb nutrients that are essential for the bodies’ survival. In the gastrointestinal system, there is a special mechanism for motility and breakdown of nutrients. This system is facilitated by four types of tissue; muscosa, submucosa, muscularis externa and serosa (Sherwood, 2010, p.591-594). The muscosa is innermost layer that serves multiple functions with an epithelial layer for protection and portions for…
