Micro Pig
Most people have probably heard that pigs are smarter than dogs. Studies have shown that pigs are thought to have the intelligence of a 3-year-old human child. A Penn State study showed that pigs can play video games that use joysticks. In fact, they proved to be better at the games than some members of the chimp family. The same study revealed that pigs could be taught to recognize and use objects, like a Frisbee or a dumb bell, and still remember them three years later. University of Illinois scientists conducted a study in which pigs used trial and error to figure out how to turn the heat on and off in a cold barn. Although we might find a pig's intelligence to be impressive, most of us would be unlikely to allow a full-grown one to live in our homes. People who would consider a pig for a pet are in luck. Micro pigs are the latest craze in unusual pets. But don’t think of them as purse or pocket pigs! They grow to be about 40 to 65 pounds, the size of many adult dogs. Because pigs have hair instead of fur, they might actually prove to be better pets for people with allergies. They can be trained to use a litter box, and most owners say they’re clean animals. However, do your research before choosing a pig as a pet. Pigs can be destructive if they don’t have the companionship, attention, stimulation, and boundaries they require. Pigs are social animals, and some breeders only sell them in pairs.

    Did you know that pigs are the 3rd smartest animal alongside dolphins and chimpanzees? The story of The Three Little pigs is about three pigs who were set off on their own into the world. All three build their homes one by one. They encounter a wolf who tries to capture each pig individually. The first two pigs built separate homes that were not very stable, so the wolf destroyed the homes and eats those pigs. The wolf is mostly successful except when he encounters the third pig who has built a brick house. The wolf tries to trick the little pig to get him out of his home. The wolf is persistent in this goal, but in the end, it’s no use. The pig lures the wolf into a boiling pot of water and eats him in the end. Due to these actions, the third pig is the most admirable of the three. The third pig is the most admirable because he is clever, ambitious and hardworking.…

    The plant cell is enclosed by a plasma membrane, which forms a selective barrier allowing nutrients to enter and waste products to leave. Unlike other eukaryotes, however, plant cells have retained a significant feature of their prokaryote ancestry, a rigid cell walls surrounding the plasma membrane. The cytoplasm contains specialized organelles, each of which is surrounded by a membrane. Plant cells differ from animal cells in that they lack centrioles and organelles for locomotion (cilia and flagella), but they do have additional specialized organelles. Chloroplasts convert light to chemical energy, a single large vacuole acts as a water reservoir, and plasmodesmata allow cytoplasmic substances to pass directly from one cell to another. There is only one nucleus and it contains all the genetic information necessary for cell growth and reproduction. The other organelles occur in multiple copies and carry out the various functions of the cell, allowing it to survive and participate in the functioning of the larger organism.…
