through the air‚ it maintained its stability through the air due to the fins that were on the side of the rocket which helped to push the air in an even streamlined path behind the tail of the rocket. Our rocket came second in height achieved and furthest in distance displaced. We built our rocket the way that we did because we felt it would launch higher up than the rest of our competitors rockets could. We used the tri-fin design on our rocket because we felt that it would work

in which these animals are cut up for their fins) Body: I. When sharks are caught commercially‚ their fins are cut off for the purpose of shark fin soup. a. After cutting the fin off‚ commercial fishermen toss the STILL LIVING shark back into ocean to die one of three gruesome deaths. i. Sharks cannot survive without constant flow of water through their gills‚ so some of these finless sharks drown. ii. Next‚ sharks cannot swim without a dorsal fin‚ which means they cannot hunt food to survive

The impact of global and local processing on the perceived adjustment error in the Muller-Lyer illusion. A test of Day’s (1989) Conflicting Cues Theory. Abstract The nature of visual illusions is hotly debated in the scientific literature‚ in search of a theory to explain how perceptual distortions arise upon daily interactions with the world. The present study provides the first direct test of Day’s (1989) Conflicting Cues theory to account for the Muller-Lyer

and Devonian periods‚ These jawless fish were small‚ armored‚ bottom-dwelling freshwater filter feeders. The head was covered with thick bony plates‚ and the trunk and tail were covered with thick scales. Ostracoderms had median fins; some species had paired pectoral fins. The living relatives of the Ostracoderms are the lampreys and hagfishes. These animals have cylindrical bodies up to a meter long

shark fins have become increasingly valuable‚ fewer sharks are being released. Bycatch is often not officially landed at ports‚ therefore data on the extent of the trade are limited. Traditionally Hong Kong was the centre for shark fin imports‚ however the economic rise of China has seen an increase in imports through mainland routes making accurate tracking of trade in shark fins more difficult. (We can mention Taiwan too) In small inshore fisheries in tropical countries‚ sun-drying of fins requires

signals. The integument system of dog fish shark‚ Squalus acanthias‚ is portion of what makes up its external morphology. In this experiment‚ integument comes along with the external features of the shark—its gills‚ scales and appendages in the form of fins. Shark‚ a typical vertebrate means that its head is incased in a cranium and its vertebrae are associated with the notochord. More of its external morphology will be discussed here.

As the aluminum runs through the Fin Press it forms a fin with ridges‚ holes‚ and is cut to length as it comes off the press. The fins travel from the press to my department where I have a table with rods that I set to length for the fins to slide on. The second step is to slide copper in the holes of the fins that’s been cut to length. The copper is for the Freon to travel through

"Many experts‚ however‚ are skeptical of these new shaming punishments. Some question their effectiveness as a deterrent..."(Kahan 575). This further elicits the readers curiosity‚ bringing them to the heart of the issue. The author eloquently asks the question‚ “Who is right?” (575). He then goes on to use a logos style exploration‚ of

three inches (seven centimeters) long and as they break off or wear out‚ new teeth grow in to replace them. One of the most noticeable features of the great white is the dorsal fin which rises out of the water when a great white swims near the surface of the ocean. The fins on either side of the shark are called pectoral fins and they help to direct the shark closer to the surface or deeper into sea. The shark’s tail is powered by very strong muscles. It sweeps the tail side to side and can reach speeds
