Common carp

The Carp species, scientifically known as Cyprinus Carpio are a Freshwater fish Native to Asia. There are three main types of Carp, the Common carp, the Koi carp and the Mirror carp, all part of the Cyprinidae family. Carp were introduced into Australia in Victoria in 1858 for agricultural and ornamental purposes, with the intention to imitate the European environment. However, the Carp spread around Australia through the escape of ornamental fish. Now, carp can be found predominantly in South-Eastern Australia with smaller populations in Western Australia and Tasmania. More specifically, they inhabit the Murray Darling Basin ecosystem which is one of the most significant agricultural areas in Australia. The carp population is also distributed…

properties, pH values and total plate count (TPC):- Total volatile basic -nitrogen (TVB-N), the peroxide value (PV), pH and total plate count (TPC) are good index to determine the freshness and quality of fishes and their products. Data presented in Table (4) show the values of TVB-N, PV, pH and total plate count (TPC) for common carp fish used in the present study.…

Although, according to the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species, this carp is of least concern, it’s population trend is decreasing (Freyhof & Kottolat, 2008). This native species of carp was once widely distributed across the British Isles but is now experiencing extirpation due to competition in habitats where it does not thrive. The most significant threats are caused by introduced species; such as the closely related and often confused with Prussian carp Carassius gibelio, a subspecies of…

The carp could act as however it is being portrayed as or it could mean something important to what it is being associated with. Many mythical symbols have a beginning, such as the carp. There are stories about the origin of the carp, but those are not one-hundred percent true. “The real origin of those coloured creatures was in truth, more of an accident than by any real intentions and they are truly ‘man made’” (“Origins and Myths” 1). The carp was discovered unexpectedly instead of having a…

acceptability the product will receive (Lee, 2011). Color score values of common carp fish fingers during frozen storage are shown in (Table 8). The results indicated that color score values of the fresh control fingers sample and those prepared by incorporation of 10% (soybean flour (SF) (S) and 10% SF+1% pectin (M), were 7.9, 8.5 and 8.9, respectively. These results clearly show that colors of the formulated common carp fish fingers were significantly (P<0.05) between the texture of finger…

The dreaded Asian carp, the flying fish boaters and fisherman love to hate. A general search for Asian carp turns up more hilarious YouTube videos than you can probably watch in your lifetime. What’s not funny? The fact that these carp are an invasive species and are slowly taking over the waters that they live in. There are four varieties of Asian carp – silver carp, grass carp, bighead carp, and black carp; all of which are native to the waters of Russia, Vietnam, and China. These carp were…

Once I reached to the Commons, it was quite crowded and quite obvious that this was the place where all of the cliques and groups of Portage High School enjoyed hanging out. I trotted around talking to people hoping to make friends. Many people gave me a lot of funny looks and rejected me as I attempted to include myself in their groups. However, I was lucky enough that the theater kids accepted me as I was and even asked me to sit with them at lunch. I could not believe that I already had made…

In this situation there is a lot of power given to each individual who shares the common land. Because they all want to maximize their own profits it is up to each person to share the commons fairly. If a group of people from a different country, race, or ethnicity from the people who originally shared the commons joined the community a lot of prejudice towards that person may occur. This type of prejudice can be similar to the kind that Ta-Nehisi Coates experienced in his book “Between the…

much in order to secure him or herself. For example, if the common area is a pond, one may catch too many fish to ensure a meal for an entire month so that he or she may survive. This creates a selfishness in society, generating a cycle of these three events. According to Rousseau humans have the ability to either be the selfish individual or not associate him or herself with these negative actions. Animals do not have any idea, and will take as much fish from the pond as necessary to feed its…
