This lab was testing different methods to prevent bean beetles form infesting a chickpea harvest. They wanted to find something that would protect the crop from this invasive creature. To do this they created 3 replicate experiments which contained 25g of seeds each group with a different genotype, and 5 newly hatched adult C. maculatus were added to the jar. They continued to check this on a weekly basis, at the end of the experiment they found that the results where quite different for each jar, and that all of them were not immune to the bean beetle.…

Bed bugs are one of the most dreaded parasites in any house. They suck blood from humans and as well act as disease vectors. They've also been a sign of an unkempt setting or home. Bed bug extermination is necessary at any time bed bugs are spotted in a home because it will be important to deal with the bed bug problem once it really is noticed than later. One from the reasons you need bed pester extermination immediately you spot the first is because bed bugs multiply extremely fast. Anytime they find somewhere to such blood, the next thing is reproduction and it will take just a short time before a whole home is full infested while using the bed bugs. In fact, because of the time you notice one cargo area bug, there usually are…

All animals try to adapt to the environment to survive. The real question is why do living organisms react to environmental factors? For example, a chameleon will change colors to hide from predators. Bears hibernate in the winter to conserve energy because of the food shortages. Likewise, pill bugs avoid light and try to make homes in dark, damp environments and eat decaying plant and animal matter. The reason pill bugs prefer dark and damp environments is because they behave negatively to phototaxis, which is the response to light, and have a partially positive behavior towards hydrotaxis, which is the response to moisture. The reason I say partial behavior is because they do not prefer to live in an all-dry habitat, but they also do not find large bodies of water an ideal habitat as well. In this specific scenario, the object of the…

San Ramon bed bugs are a common pest. They are brown in color. However, their bodies can swell and turn a reddish color after they eat. San Ramon bed bugs do not fly, but they can move quickly. Bed bugs can also develop quickly and produce as many as three generations in one year. That is why a bed bug infestation can develop quickly.…
If you see an unwanted pest during the day time, then this could be a sign of an infestation. You are in need of an Livermore exterminator if you notice a pest during the day. Keep in mind that pests are typically active at night. That is why if you see one during the day, then there are probably more coming out at night.…
Many people refer to the poison frog as the “jewels of the Rainforest,” because of their peculiar colors, but beware these frogs can be very deadly. Their main habitat is the bottom of tropical rainforests, yet the some live high in the canopy and never come down. They have amazingly bright colors and fantastic patterns to warn other rainforest animals that they are poisonous, but occasionally they are swallowed, and the consumer might die depending on the type of poison frog. Their colors range from blue, green, red, yellow, orange, pink, and purple. Although most poison frog are bright colors some are not, and can be colors such as black, brown, grey, dark green or blue.

However, as much as I fancies and enjoy this information ages I would not want to see this dragonfly spying my kids or me because, I believe it is an invasion of privacy.…
Fruit Flies, also known as Drosophila melanogaster, are good insects to observe genetic testing. The fruit fly has obvious character traits which are easily seen when observing the fly body. There is also a vast variety of characteristics for each trait. The most common trait differences are the wings and eye color. The flies’ traits always follow Mendelian genetics and are easy to create pennant squares for. Plus the flies breed quickly, so the offspring will only take about two weeks to hatch and grow into adults. Fruit flies are also cooperate well to mate with any type. Genotype and phenotypes don’t matter when it comes to breeding. Also the flies produce hundreds of offspring, so you can easily tell the genotype of the generation prior.…
