Betta splendens are most readily used for a number or reasons; they are easily obtained, very cost efficient, and they display strong aggressive patterns that are easily observed. Examples…

    The Orangespotted Sunfish

    The compressifrom body shape is not as favorable for fitting into small spaces as the anguilliform, eel-like, style but with the small size of these fish and a larger amount and variety of refuge or cover found in rivers, they survive quite well. This compressiform body style allows this fish to make quick turns and short, fast bursts of speed with good maneuverability. The caudal fin is forked with a low aspect ratio meaning the tail is broad, the fish has good acceleration from the start, and the tail aids in hovering. A forked tail allows for good acceleration and maneuverability with a slight amount of drag. The dorsal fin has ten anterior spines that are directly connected to the rays of the posterior dorsal fin. Spines help protect this fish from predators and keep them balanced. The anal fin, outlined in black, also has three spines for extra protection. They have short and rounded pectoral fins which contribute to speed and allow the fish to fit into small crevasses. The primary swimming form of the Orangespotted Sunfish is labriform because they row their pectoral fins, an oscillatory fin motion. The mouth of these fish are terminal and moderately…

    Miss Emily In William Faulkner's A Rose For Emily

    “A Rose for Emily” is a mysterious and unusual short story. William Faulkner creates a character, Miss Emily Grierson, who is so significant to the town that she is referred to as a “fallen monument” after her death. Miss Emily is an eccentric character, and although she physically changes, her character nor her personality do. Miss Emily is a static character, with internal conflicts, and has odd relationships with her boyfriend and husband. For instance, Miss Emily kept her late father's body and refused to give him up, showing an inability to let go. She keeps his body because she also does not want to be isolated, even though she avoids interaction by staying in her home. Miss Emily's isolation is external with society and also resonates…

    A Rose For Miss Emily Literary Analysis

    The narrator provides that Miss Emily is crazy in an obscure way. First the smell in which we can see in page 284, "will you accuse a lady to her face of smelling bad?" Second, when she wanted arsenic in page 286, "I want arsenic." Thirdly, how she never leaves her house in page 288. Lastly, she is crazy because when the townspeople went inside Miss Emily's house they found Homer lying in a bed decaying and found out that Miss Emily was sleeping next it in page 289, "Then we noticed that in the second pillow… leaning forward, that faint… long strand of iron-gray hair." We can infer that the narrators are just telling the story out of their observation from a first person plural point of view. The narrator is however very…

    Emily's Phobia Connection

    In the story, “A Rose for Emily” by William Faulkner, there are critical literary devices that help impact the message the author is implying. The Author uses devices such as imagery, point of view, and theme. These examples help with internal connections throughout the story, visualizations for the setting and characters, and a theme. This is where the reader tries to figure out the authors’ intentions for publishing the text. The highlighted literary devices can also provide the reader with a potential understanding of the authors personal life and opposing answers to the story that the reader may have felt unsure of in the beginning. Although searching and finding the overall message or theme of the story can be difficult; using the literary devices while reading will help the reader to make strong connections of the devices to form a theme and moral of the story.…
