Jelly Fish Research Paper
There are many causes to the over population of jellyfish. One of the origins is pollution. When the earth is polluted it increases the number of dead zones. Zooplankton thrive in these dead zones; jellyfish also thrive on zooplankton. When there is a higher population of zooplankton, jellyfish can become bigger and in a larger population. Another cause for the spread of jellyfish is over fishing, when there is less fish that eat jelly fish, it causes their population to grow. Another problem is the warming ocean, when the water warms the jellyfish are enabled to move into new areas.

    The Red Cedar River is home to many interesting and unique species of organisms, including crayfish. Crayfish play a significant role in the ecosystem by serving as a food source to different organisms. By studying the factors that influence the amount of crayfish in a freshwater environment, researchers can discover more about how ecosystems persist. The overpopulation of crayfish in freshwater systems can lead to various negative impacts, such as the feeding on plants that are major food sources for different aquatic organisms and the eating of fish eggs leading to the decrease in population sizes. If there is evidence proving a positive correlation between phosphorus concentration, a chemical element that can enter water through waste or…

This has conservationist worried about the genetic makeup of the native species.…

    The vampire fish. That is what the Sea lamprey was nicknamed when discovered in 1835. First spotted in Lake Ontario, researchers were horrified to learn that the Sea lamprey feeds on blood. These parasitic fish latch on to their victims and siphon their blood and other body fluids, sucking them completely dry. What separates the Sea lamprey from other fish, other than their horrifying blood fetish, is their unique body structure. These fish do not have jaws or any other bone structure in their anatomy. Instead of the norm they possess a skeleton that is made out of cartilage. With a unique body set up, comes a unique mouth. It is described to be a large hole filled with sharp, pointy teeth. And this teeth frame a just as deadly tongue.…

    What I learned. I learned the differences between transgender, transexual, and transvestite (cross-dressing). Jennifer Boylan made it understood that she is a “male-to-female transexual” and not a transvestite. She said that the word transvestite sounds “creepy” and bug-like. She believes that it is not about dressing up like a female but mentally and physically feeling like one.…

    Blue Crab Research Paper

    Also known as "beautiful swimmer," the blue crab is one of the more resilient of Chesapeake species, but its fate depends on many factors. With the drastic decline of the Bay's oysters, watermen began extending their crabbing efforts much later into the fall, the time they would normally have shifted to oystering. A decade later, the blue crab population has been cut in half! Many locals have made a career out of harvesting its seafood, and the annual harvest and many of its other attractions bring tourists and, in turn, revenue for the area. Blue crabs play a giant role in supporting the ecosystem and the community, and we need a way to help. Two solutions towards saving the native blue crabs would be to limit the amount of blue crabs harvested…

    Essay On Blackfish

    Some people believe that Sea World is a greedy, profit-seeking organization that couldn’t care less about the treatment and well-being of their animals, but the truth is, the animals are in the best possible care. If the orcas or any other animal at Sea World were anywhere else, they would not get the attention and care they need to survive. Sea World’s reputation was tarnished severely by the documentary, Blackfish, in 2013. “This documentary claims that life at Sea World is cruel and harsh for both the trainers and the whales and that they have attempted to cover up the truth about many incidents involving their whales; both are false (Truth About Blackfish, Sea World Cares.com). Kyle Kittleson, a former marine mammal trainer for Sea World, states, “the documentary, Blackfish, is about 15% correct; one of those facts being in Sea Worlds earlier times, like the 60’s and 70’s, people had a different…

Was it the colorful pattern the book cover had? I just don’t know. I thought this book was the most amazing book I ever heard of. When I think of this book, I think about how my teacher helped me and my classmates learn how to read better with this book. My literacy experience started at home. Every one can’t say the same.
