The zippleboff is one of the most majestic creatures on the planet. They roam the lands from Canada to China, or they used to. Ever since the year 1974, one year after the endangered species act was signed the zippleboff has been near the top of that list. Hunters excessively hunted the zippleboff for its feathers and beak made of olsson.…
The Platypus was first described in 1799 in Shaw's naturalist's Miscellany along with the koala, Kangaroo, wombat and emu. The most curious was the platypus. Since its first discovery there has been much debate as to whether it is a mammal and how it should be classified.…
The platypus is really weird, I mean, it is the only animal that looks like it is a mix of animals. Maybe God threw in a bunch of animals in together and mixed them up.…
would fall into the Equus. You might be wondering what a Equus genus is and is made up off. Well the Equus is made up of mammals that fall in the Equidae family. Apparently according to chem,tufts, The Genus Equus came out about 55 years ago and all the way till now. As i previously stated, the stripes of the plain zebra make my animal unique because scientists have said that the stripes are exposed to distract predators from attacking them.…
I love animals from the big to the small and everything in between but they’re all different in some way and others are completely different like reptiles and amphibians and mammals and the like but they’re also all the same in some way, what if someone compared them someway?...…
use that word to talk about all animals as they don’t know the correct name for other…

What do you think of when the word Lemur is said? What is a lemur exactly? In particular, I found the picture of lemurs to be most interesting. Not only do lemurs have long tails, but their tails are black and white with a horizontal pattern, however there is one species of lemurs that do not have long tails. It is true that I have never seen a lemur before, but that is because I do not live in Madagascar according to the book. With that being said, lemurs could be classified as “Strepsirrhini”, as they have a distinctive look with features like their feet, claws, and their teeth. Lemurs are known to be “the smallest primate”, although lemurs used to be bigger, they now are smaller due to “the amount of food they need to survive”. Knowingly,…
When you have too much cholesterol, it can be dangerous to your health. When LDL cholesterol levels are high, cholesterol is deposited on the walls of arteries and forms a hard substance called plaque. Over time, plaque causes the arteries to become narrower, decreasing blood flow and causing a condition called atherosclerosis (pronounced: ah-thuh-ro-skluh-ro-sis), or hardening of the arteries.…

Millions of species inhabit Earth. How do scientists make sense of them all? First, scientists study the similarities and differences between organisms. The scientists study characteristics including obvious physical traits, such as hair or leaves, and molecular traits, such as DNA sequences. Then, scientists use the information to classify species into meaningful groups. The groups may also reveal which species are related and how they fit along the evolutionary tree. Scientists who specialize in the naming and classifying of species are called taxonomists. In this activity, you will act as a taxonomist and identify and classify an unusual organism.…

There is a large collection of very dissimilar form of organisms, found on earth .over 1.5 million types of animals and over 0.5 million types of plants are known to biologists and these are only a small percentage of the total types estimated to live on earth.To classify them into different groups biologists divide organisms into groups and subgroups.…
