1. The shrimp, like the crab and lobster, has a segmented body. All also have antennae, and use their antennae to feel out their environment.…
Pannotia from Greek (Pan: all), (notos: south) which mean "all south land"(figur1). Pannotia is the second Neoproterozoic supercontinent comes after Rodinia. Which form between the periods of 600 million years ago to the end of the Precambrian. Pannotia land were distributed close the poles and very small section close the equator linking the polar mass. During earth history many supercontinents have been formed and broke up. As in the case for Pannotia formation and braking up is based on hypotheses of orogenesis and destruction of continental crust. Of course the cycle of supercontinents have effect on the earth’s evolution. This report will discuss formation, breaking up and the list of changes that happened during Pannotia supercontinent…
Taking this single piece of information, imagine how simple predicting a lake's first late winter panfish peak is. You will rarely miss the bet by driving to your target lake, taking a few steps on to the ice to observe the snow conditions, and making your decision from there. If the heavy snow is gone, go for it. If not, head southward, or to a shallower lake nearby. Unless you've got inside information that tips you off to active fish before the snow melt-off, skip trying these lakes beforehand.…
The Odontodactylus scyllarus, also know as “Peacock Mantis Shrimp” is known as one of the more vibrant mantis shrimps when it comes to outer appearance. This specie of mantis shrimp can fluctuate from three to eighteen centimeters. It is no doubt that these creatures are a beauty to see. Their whole body type in general resembles a lobster, their legs are brilliantly orange and they have spots that are leopard-like on the front of their carapace. Their body consists of bright red, green, orange and blue and right on the base of its head lies their two eyes. Their oversized eyes protrude from their body giving them an almost comical appeal. However beautiful and alluring these creatures might seem, they are not to be trifled with. EYEEESIGHTTT AYEEEEE…
Mantis shrimp have highly extendable front claws and very sharp tails. They have three pupils in each eye. Each eye moves independently to track prey their eyes are always moving. They have raptorial appendages to capture prey. The appendage is part of their mouth. Thy cans see 10 times as many colors than humans can.…
5. How are females carrying eggs marked? By cutting a small V-shaped notch in their tails. Why do they do this? So other lobstermen would know they were breeding stock. Also, it is state law.…
Panathenaic Amphorae were simply not special. However they do reveal a stark contrast between the mundane and the mythic. The format of a Panathenaic format was simple: it was “a picture of the prize event on one side, and Athena in the smiting pose on the other” (Neer 183). These amphorae were used as prizes for the Panathenaic games during the 6th century BC. They were black figure styled art, and relatively average sized, often filled with olive oil. What had been observed in the times before Peisistratos was high pride associated with Olympic Games. Victors would mount their prizes on the Acropolis for all visitors to see and know their names. Now they were given simple and generic pots. It used to be that these games were representative…
The color of the exoskeleton is brown or green, but the antennae are red, and adults have bright blue bands near the tips of their legs. In smaller individuals, the bands may be white. The legs and carapace are covered in setae, and the rostrum at the front of the carapace is triangular.…

5. How are females carrying eggs marked? Why do they do this? They have a small V-shaped notch in their tails, so other lobstermen would know they were breeding stock and by state law must be thrown back. They do this so there will be a greater population of lobster because they are being produced.…
Crayfish have bodies similar to that of the presumed ancestral crustacean. Such a body is essentially shrimp-like in that it is elongate and nearly cylindrical in cross section. The abdomen is well developed and its segmentation is easily noted. The crayfish has bilateral symmetry, anterior, posterior, dorsal, ventral, right, and left.…
Have you ever made a sandwich? Maybe a PB&J or a grilled cheese sandwich. As you were getting all the ingredients, have you ever gotten bread with fuzzy colored stuff on it? That fuzzy stuff is mold. Mold is an organism but it is not a plant or an animal… So what is it?…
Maine has always been New England’s central access to the freshest lobsters with its geographic advantage. However, the fishery world will find less and less of these sea creatures as current climate change continue to warm up the Gulf of Maine. This ecological damage to lobster larvae will make a huge economic impact since catches and prices of lobsters are going strong. With over a half billion dollar in profit, this causes concern for fishermen as scientists predict water at this essential location will wind up with scarcer quantity of lobster in response to a five degree increase in temperature by 2100. This paper will address the concerns for the survival of lobster larvae due to climate change.…
Pantaloon is not just an organisation – it is an institution, a centre of learning & development. They believe that knowledge is the only weapon at their disposal and the quest for it is focused, systematic and unwavering.…
