As many know, a Venus flytrap (or Dionaea muscipula seed) achieves its energy not only through photosynthesis, but through devouring its prey (dragon flies, mosquitoes, etc.). The Venus flytrap’s “mouth” (trapping mechanism) is very rough and is always green. This part of the organism’s body is also covered with a fragrant nectar that attracts its prey towards it. When the prey reaches the Venus flytrap, it begins to feed off of the nectar. Once touching its leaf, the prey sets off a twenty…

The subjects to be analyzed and compared in this essay depict different variations of the Roman goddess of love, Venus. The first topic of concern involves the famous painting by the Italian master Titian, “Venus of Urbino” which was completed in 1538, attributed to the Renaissance era. The second piece, “Olympia” was inspired by the original painting “Venus of Urbino”, but instead Eduoard Manet, adjusted the character in the original painting, and added more drama, something which sparked…

her career and not just because of her gender, ethnicity, or the way she chooses to present herself. Her hard-work should be recognized as a game changer in tennis and people should appreciate that. As mentioned by Shultz on page 340, “Serena and Venus Williams have attracted more black spectators than any other black professional athlete.” This just shows that the Williams sisters has helped inspire the minorities to come and watch a predominantly “white” sport. With…

Be it through television, radio, or toys, we are a product of our childhood. The things we experience as children daily have an enormous, impressionable impact on our lives. For me, childhood wasn’t a typical cookie-cutter situation. For me, the character that stuck with me the most during my childhood wasn’t a toy or television character; it was a tennis player by the name of Maria Sharapova. To understand my––for lack of a better word––obsession, let’s set the scene. It’s been approximately a…

They are mad, you see, because the sun only ever comes out every 7 years for only 2 hours. The reason for writing this is so the two themes of the story “All Summer in a Day,” which are jealousy and anger, can be shown and told to you. In the first paragraph we will talk about the theme jealousy. All the kids from Venus are jealous of Margot for remembering the sun.…

This is the most commonly cited source that is proposed to have been used for this composition by Titian and appears in the front to Arthur Pope’s analysis of the painting for the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum where the painting resides. This text provides the most vital pieces of information; that the painting shows Zeus in the form of a bull who has seduced Europa with his beauty and kindness, only to run off with her against her will. This source is further connected to Titian because, in…

The Venus flytrap is a plant native to wetlands on the East Coast of the United States in North Carolina and South Carolina. The scientific name for the Venus Fly Trap is Dionaea Muscipula. It’s one of the most fascinating plants to have ever existed due to its omnivorous nature. Darwin noted, “‘I care more for Drosera than the origin of species ... it is a wonderful plant, or rather a most sagacious animal. I will stick up for Drosera to the day of my death.” The Venus flytrap reproduces by…
