Moore Zoology Lab #1 Morphology of Dragonflies In analyzing the morphology of dragonflies by looking at two different time periods and the water levels‚ data was found to illustrate that body size might be directly influenced by water levels. By looking at the dragonfly species Sympetrum vincinum during the 2001 drought and 2008 normal rainfall‚ the data showed that there was no statistical difference in abdomen depth (p value 0.20741). There was a

The sizes of Paramecium September 17‚ 2008 Wednesday Lab I am writing about the testing of sizes on Paramecium caudatum and bursaria and how they differentiate from one another. In comparing the two specimen’s size I found that the Paramecium caudatum was larger in size than the bursaria. Paramecia are unicellular organisms and are usually less than 0.25mm in length and covered with minute hair-like projections called cilia. They are characterized by their cilia which are

The Rate of Locomotion dependence on hind leg length and body mass for the Tenebrio molitor beetle. Abstract The effects of leg length and body mass on the Tenebrio Molitor’s rate of locomotion were investigated under laboratory conditions. The performance (running speed) was accessed for 37 Tenebrio molitor with different hind leg lengths and body masses. Running speed is important for a variety of activities (e.g. searching for prey and mates‚ dispersal‚ etc.). Therefore‚ increased

I examined the fine metallic textures of it once again as it captivated me. It kept me pondering endlessly‚ and its uniqueness seemed to grow every time I glanced at it. It shone like an angel’s light as I fiddled with it about the sunlight that had already appeared before. What could be more valuable about it? I wondered again. Just moments before‚ I had found this on my desk. It was a gift from my mother. But as attractive as it was‚ it seemed that the thought behind it was the source of its beauty
