thing I have ever done. If I had the chance I would totally do it again. In this program you get to travel overseas and explore what the ocean looks like it you haven’t already. It is an amazing experience because if you are lucky you can see sharks, whales, and dolphins in the water. If you really want to explore and go to a lot of places, just do what I did. I went to 9 different places and they were all unique in a different way. It made me think that where I lived was dull and boring…
structure similar to the human's arm and feet. Dolphins have a humerus, with a ball and socket joint. They have an ulna and radius and also as well as a complete hand structure, including the 5 phalanges. Dolphins and whales belong to the order Cetacea. Dolphins Are small toothed whales in a way.…
Their extended bodies are surrounded by bony rings with small gill slits (Zubi, 2004). Their fin patterns and distributions are different than those for other bony fish. They have no pelvic fins, small pectoral fins, and one dorsal fin (Zubi, 2004). The pectoral fins turn the Seahorse and aid in steering, while the dorsal fin moves it forward. The coronet of the Seahorse is its most distinctive feature, helping in identification as the thumbprint does for humans (Zubi, 2004). Seahorses are…
In 2010 at SeaWorld Orlando, Dawn Brancheau was brutally attacked by a SeaWorld orca named Tilikum. Blackfish is about Tilikum the orca and his conditions at SeaWorld and others left in captivity for years. Aristotle’s notion of proof was used in this documentary through logos being very informative of the mistreatment of the orcas. Next, they use pathos through the trainers sharing emotional details and interviews of the victim’s family. Lastly, they used ethos by having people that actually…
people don't see the problem in having killer whales do shows, it can be argued that orcas in captivity and having them do shows has multiple issues. One reason is that orcas can be driven crazy when kept in captivity. Second of all, killer whales need more space than any aquarium can give them. Last but not least, orcas in captivity aren't as healthy as orcas in the wild. I believe that killer whale shows should be banned. To begin, killer whales or orcas can be driven insane when kept in…
Andrew Thao Mrs. Blevins English 3 24 February 2018 Herman Melville This is research paper is about the man behind the whale, Herman Melville. There is a certain book that continues to make him one of America's greatest writer. That book is known as “Moby Dick”, or “The Whale”.

This is about Herman…

My research topic for my secondary source paper is plastic pollution. My research question is what impact has plastic pollution had on our oceans in the past 25 years. My family has always been big into traveling and when we do you will typically find us in the water snorkeling. The place that stands out most in my memory is Hawaii; the water was crystal clear, the coral bright, and the turtles would swim right next to you. This is where I fell in love with the sea, but this is also where I…
they can feel disturbances in the water from up to a mile away. When great white sharks are young, they feed on smaller prey, like fish and rays. As they grow larger, they feed more exclusively on marine mammals, such as sea lions, seals, and small whales. The great white is at the top of the food chain and has few threats in the ocean. Only orcas and larger sharks can…
they use the star whale in this episode to help represent the doctor. Both are the only ones left of their kind, and share many similar qualities, but the most importantly, just as the Doctor, the Star whale comes to help the people in the UK in their time of need, no matter how bad they treated him, or how dangerous it was. The Doctor is not human but he shares many of the same feelings we all have. At the end of the Episode when he has to choose between killing the Star whale,…
