Bioluminescence

includes physical structures, reproduction and behavior, feeding habits, position in food web, range, and environment. The gulper eel is adapted to survive and thrive. The gulper eel’s physical features are very interesting. It’s tail has pink bioluminescence, a light made from chemicals(S2). It can also flash red(S2). The eel is usually black or dark green…

Say No to GMO Foods Essay Outline Essay Outline GMO foods are unsafe Information -Genetically Modified Organism -Genetically modified organisms occurs when the organisms DNA is altered in an unnatural way. Using gene technology, genetic engineering allowing certain genes to be transferred from one organism to another (“Q&A: genetically modified food”). Thesis -Do we really know what we are eating? Do we were know what kinds of food we putting into our bodies and…

Genetic and Biological engineering are just a few of the plethora of types of engineering that are rapidly evolving and expanding their horizons. Many advancements have been made in the field, and the community is divided when it comes to the issue of whether or not we should use such technology, or what the limits of the technology should be. It is imperative to find a solution to this issue or to create regulations, because everyone currently does not agree on what should be done about the…

Importance of Microbes Introduction It was long ago when Man realized that, along with animals and plants, he was also accompanied by some other organisms as well, and though which remained hidden from his eyes. Those organisms were unveiled by Anton Van Leeuwenhoek, who first saw the tiny organisms which accompanied Man through the lenses of microscope. Later it was found out that microorganisms inhabited each and every surface of earth, on man himself, or even inside him, resided under the…

Outline: 1. Introduction: Marine biology plays an important role in the ecosystem. It accommodates different animals and plant species, which acts as source of food for human beings. These water bodies have different zones of habitat, which supports the life of different species. 2. Coastal habitat: a. Intertidal zones. b. Sandy & rocky shores. c. Mangroves. d. Coral reefs. 3. Ocean habitat: a. The Epipelagic zone. b. The Mesopelagic zone. c. The Bathypelagic zone. d. The Abyssal pelagic zone…

GMA’s I will be discussing the concepts presented in chapter 23 of the Oxford handbook of animal ethics. Titled “Genetically Modified animals: Should there be limits to Engineering the animal kingdom” and written by Julian Savulescu, this chapter deals with the ramifications of GMA’s and how to best regulate them. I specifically will be concentrating on the concepts of GMA’s as a whole and their usefulness as well as the ways Savulescu thinks GMA’s should be regulated. I well summarize his…

states on the LB(- ) plasmid were too little to see with the exposed eye. When we look at the LBAmp(- ) versus the LB(- ), the LBAmp(- ) had marginally a bigger number of provincesthan the LB(- ). The LBAmp(- ) petri dish with a light to watch the bioluminescence of the provinces. Be that as it may, just a single little settlement could be spotted at the edge of our dish. The LBAmp(+) and LBAmp(- ) were precisely the same, however the LBAmp(- ) had almost no microscopic organisms, as the…

“Over 60% of our planet is covered by water more than a mile deep. The deep sea is the largest habitat on earth and is largely unexplored. More people have traveled into space than have traveled to the deep ocean realm....” -The Blue Planet Seas of Life. It is hard to believe that most of our planet is made up of vast oceans, practically right under our nose, yet so much is still unknown about it. To think that we have come across so much information, and made so many advances in regards to…

So, that’s exactly what everyone did. Then we looked down, and where we were kicking there was bunch of little lights that looked like pixie dust. After all our excitement our teacher told us it was called bioluminescence. Everyone thought it was so cool,so we did it some more until we got tired of it. Then after all the excitement we went out a little more then started to come back to shore. Finally we were going back to shore. We reached shore eventually and…

What do you think of when your hear the word “squid?” Sea monsters with enough size and strength to drag down a ship? Hellish man-eating creatures of the deep? Think again. When I think of the order Teuthida, I think of medical discoveries, saving lives, fascinating intelligence, and scientific revelations. I think of complex anatomy and diverse shapes and sizes. I think of adaptability and resourcefulness. I think you should read this research paper on squids. Squids have quite an…
