Arthropod

Long ago there was a great vast paradise where all insects lived. Among these insects were the worms, the most easily frightened, and the most unwilling to try any new things out of all the insects; some may even say that these worms suffered from Neophobia. Everyday for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, the worms ate dirt. However they did not eat it happily; it was often that they would complain and say, “I am tired of eating dirt. It’s disgusting.” To which the older much wiser worms would say,…

Introduction Brine shrimp are creatures that are known to thrive in harsher conditions, so they make an ideal research subject because of their durability. They are a native species of the Great Salt Lake, proving that they can withstand a high water salinity of up to 20 %+ ( https://microbewiki.kenyon.edu/index.php/Salt_Lake). Brine shrimp range from around 8-10 mm, including the tail. They have nineteen body segments, 11 of them include twenty-two legs total. Brine shrimp have an exoskeleton…

Differences in Arthropods and Mollusks. Coastal regions possess a unique characteristics in which all plant and life forms have to adapt in order to be able to survive in such regions. One major characteristic of these regions is due to the constant wave motion of the seas in coastal regions. Hence, life forms such as Arthropods and Mollusks, predominant life forms present in these coastal regions, adapt and specialize to be able to thrive in such an environment. Both Arthropods and Mollusks…

Discussion: The purpose of this experiment was to observe the effects that salinity content had on the possible hatching successes of brine shrimp nauplii. It was also used in order to find the optimal salinity content and if that content was of high concentration, or that of a lower concentration. It was predicted that the Artemia spp would be much more positively affected, with higher percentages of live nauplii hatchings, in the water containing the lower amount of salinity content. The…

Striped bass eat a variety of foods, including fish such as alewives, flounder, sea herring, menhaden, sand lance, silver hake, tomcod, smelt, silversides and eels, as well as lobsters, crabs, soft clams, small mussels, sea worms and squid. The largest bass in Texas was caught on the Brazos river and it was 53 pounds. Stripped bass inhabit coastal waters up to 10 kilometers from shore and are often found in bays. In spring, they migrate to freshwater rivers and lakes to spawn. There are also…

cares for their offspring. Perhaps humans take parental control for granted because it is a natural instinct for us. Surprisingly, their are some species that abandon their offspring as soon as possible including, tortoises and arthropods. On the flip side of that, some arthropods are of the most devoted parents and their parenting skills evolve due to risk of predators. Parental actions in anthropoids have fascinated scientist for many years. Some female spiders take parenting to the extreme.…

Wallace effectively led both readers on and made them think that he was bias to one side before he stated facts going each what each group believed. He managed to stay in the middle of the debate and made the readers think about why the opposite group believes what they believe. His essay is subversive by putting possible doubt in the readers mind and made them actually listen to other viewpoints. When I say “other viewpoints” I am speaking about the viewpoints of people who think it is…

The Effect of pH Level on the Amount of Brine Shrimp Hatched By: Maggie Lazaroski and Paloma Diaz Period 1, January 8 2014 Introduction Paragraph In this experiment, we will be using brine shrimp to measure the effects of pH on the survival rate of invertebrate creatures. We will use white vinegar and baking soda to alter the level of pH, the white vinegar to make the pH level higher and the baking soda to make the pH lower. We will be feeding the shrimp yeast, which is completely…

The essay, “Consider the Lobster”, written by David Foster Wallace is about him visiting the Maine Lobster Festival. He believes that the festival is more than about the food and entertainment. First, he goes into very specific details explaining the lobster. He stated, “Lobsters are both hunters and scavengers”, (page 2). I believe that the main purpose of the article is to tell people to look at reality and consider the lobster on what they have to go through to be cooked and eating. He…
