No, it would not be successfull on the sea floor and it certainly would not be successfull burrowing or living in the sea floor, although squid do sometimes prey on benthic organisms. The squid uses its tentacles to grab and eat its prey. The squid uses its muscles to pump through the water. And has adapted to see better with large eyes.

No they would not do so well living on land, they float through the sea so they would not have any means or mobilization, also, they use long tentacles to

Diatoms that have a pinnate shape display bilateral symmetry and are usually long with extensions or markings come off the diatom at right angles. Centric diatoms show radial symmetry and can be shaped like a circle, triangle or rectangle. 4. Almost all diatoms are found in the photic zone since they rely on the sun's energy. However, within the photic zone we classify diatoms as either benthic or planktonic. Benthic means they are found on the bottom (or attached to floating organisms) and planktonic means they are free-floating. Most centric diatoms are planktonic and most pennate diatoms are benthic. Diatoms are found in basically ALL aquatic environments (salt water, fresh water, cold water, warm water).…

    For the experiential learning project, I read a book called, “Leo the Extraordinarily Ordinary Lizard”, to first and second grade students. By reading this book I got out into the community, and met a great deal of young kids ready to learn about the wonders of the Santa Rosa Plateau. This enjoyable read was very entertaining, containing jokes to make you laugh, and questions for you to ponder, about a lizard, Leo, who does not know what his fun is. But by interacting with the creatures in his ecosystem, Leo is able to figure out what he can do for fun. In conclusion I hope this book has a long term effect because it could lead to one having a moment of wanting to go into the community and leading nature hikes, and starting conservation…

    Leafy Sea Dragon

    • 3 Pages

    The Leafy Sea Dragon is a marine fish in the family Syngnathidae, which includes the seahorses. The name comes from the long leaf-like growths on its body. Sea dragons are some of the most-well camouflaged creatures on the planet. They blend perfectly with the seaweed and kelp that they live in. Leafy sea dragons don't live on tropical reefs, but in the cooler rocky reefs off the southern coast of Australia. Despite their name, seadragons don’t have any teeth. They suck their food with their long mouths, just like seahorse. Their diet consists of Small invertebrates, including shrimps and other zooplankton. Sea dragons' mouths work like straws. A sea dragon waits until its prey ventures near, then sucks it up. Each day, a single sea dragon may eat up to a thousand creatures. Sea dragons have a thin tails which cannot be used for gripping. They have small, transparent dorsal and pectoral fins that propel and steer them through the water, but they just tumble and drift in the current like seaweed.…

    Noel Steurgeon Nature

    In the article The Politics of the Natural in U.S. History and Popular Culture, Noel Sturgeon showed many examples of how she thinks nature and culture intersect. One of the examples she talks about is, “Are wilderness areas necessary for preserving “wild nature”? Or are they managed and commodified leisure resources in which “wild nature” has to be controlled?” I have confidence that this sentence means that nature can sometimes be controlled by culture, where it maybe should not be. Another example from Sturgeon of culture and nature intersecting is in a paragraph about human rights. Sturgeon explained that back when almost nobody had rights, it was because it was “natural”. More specifically, “...were “discovering” a host of “natural” differences that proved the superiority of white European men...” She also explained why she believes it should be separate, in the essay she states, “New genetic,…

    Starfish are among the most familiar of marine invertebrates. They typically have a central disc and five arms, though some species have more than this. The aboral or upper surface may be smooth, granular or spiny, and is covered with overlapping plates. Many species are brightly coloured in various shades of red or orange, while others are blue, grey or brown. Starfish have tube feet operated by a hydraulic system and a mouth at the centre of the oral or lower surface. They have complex life cycles and can reproduce both sexually and asexually. Most can regenerate damaged parts or lost arms and they can shed arms as a means of defence…

    They can live broadly throughout the ocean on the sea floor from shallow to deep and can live in virtually all terrains: mua, sana, rock, and coral reefs. They resemble the commonly known garden cucumber, as they’re tube-shaped and can be tan, green, black, although they can also be bright blue, purple, or red. The sea cucumber uses its tube feet to slowly transport itself, with a hydraulic system internally working with water. Some filter feed their food while others use tentacles to catch their prey. Sea cucumbers can also physically change their shape to hide from predators, or look less appetizing. It is also able to spit out its organs to slow down their predators and can regenerate them in 3-5…

    The sea cucumber moves very slowly across the ocean floor. Some kinds of sea cucumbers move their muscles slowly to get around, and some sea cucumbers move with little tube feet, like the ones starfish have. Sea cucumbers live in different conditions. Some live on shallow reefs, and some live in deep sea vents that are sometimes 3.5 kilometers. Other sea cucumbers are “planktonic”, which means that the sea cucumber goes with the water’s currents, like seaweed.…
