He was quiet and didn’t say much, but his findings, along with others, are the basis of modern biology. The man who possessed those characteristics was Charles Darwin. He was born in 1809 and at the age of 16, was sent off to medical school, which he had very little interest in. As matter of fact, he often skipped class to study the plants and animals of the…

Under the 16 career clusters, the first one is Agriculture, Food, and Natural Resources. One of the careers that are under this cluster is Zoologists Wildlife Biologists, who do the studying of life of wildlife, and how these animals interact with the ecosystems. They also study the physical attributes of animals and their behaviors from how humans have impacted on their wildlife and natural habitats. The needed skills are communication skills, with writing scientific papers and speeches, and…

Dottus variegatus. In nature, observations of animals such as insects and predatory birds indicate that predators select against organisms with phenotypes that do not blend in with their environment. In this lab, dots and their colors represent the species Dottus variegatus and the different phenotypes. Depending on the conclusion of the experiment, selection pressure for or against phenotype may improve or prevent reproductive success (fitness) and survival. The hypothesis being tested is that…

Why is zoo cruelty an important thing to take into consideration? Zoo animals are being taken out of their natural habitats more and more every day. Zoos are going out of their way to do such things.
