It also makes the whale shark the largest fish living today. Unlike the great white shark, the whale shark’s 3,000 teeth are tiny and they do not use them to tear apart mammals, in fact their teeth is of little use to the whale shark. So what does the whale shark eat to survive? Whale sharks don’t hunt…

For example the male gaze which is accepted and normalised from the white male point of view, the black male gaze is demonised as more than admiration for the women but rather a threatanising gaze.

Phylogeny of Sphyrna- Hammerhead Sharks INTRODUCTION I will be investigating the phylogenetic history of Sphyrna, a genus of hammerhead sharks. The eight species that fall under this genus are Sphyrna corona (scalloped bonnethead), Sphyrna gilberti (Carolina hammerhead), Sphyrna lewini (scalloped hammerhead), Sphyrna media (scoophead), Sphyrna mokarran (great hammerhead), Sphyrna tiburo (bonnethead), Sphyrna tudes (smalleye hammerhead), and Sphyrna zygaena (smooth hammerhead). Hammerhead sharks…

The Great White has an incredible sense of smell that it uses to sniff out prey. Another interesting sense of the Great White is the ampulla of Lorenzini, tiny pores in the skin that are highly sensitive to electrical discharges. These pores can sense charges as little as 0.005 microvolts. This "sixth sense" is useful in tracking prey's movement from long distances. In fact, they can feel disturbances in the water from up to a mile away. When great white sharks are young, they feed on smaller…

An example of this is the Selachimorpha, commonly known as a shark and the Homo Sapien, commonly known as a human. The sharks and humanity are both similar and different in several ways. The living environments are noticeably different, as one species lives in the ocean and the other lives on the land. Sharks can live in shallow, coastal regions, while other species of sharks can inhabit in deep waters, on the…
