Foliar and Root Anatomy of Evergreen Tree‚ Citrus Limon (Rutaceae) Abstract: Foliar and root anatomy were obtained from a Citrus Limon to be studied upon and the main focus were the stem‚ petiole‚ leaf and root. Plant material was obtained from Manila Seeding Bank Foundation Inc. and was brought to Ateneo De Manila University. Sections were subjected to staining and dehydration‚ after which they were viewed under a light microscope and measured using a light microscope. The young stem has a periderm

band. Nine to ten bars can be identified on this fish. The bars on the female have a light center‚ which is a way of gender identification when the males are outside of the breeding season and not brightly colored. Identification of species and gender is especially important when sampling fishes. During breeding season‚ males have a bright orange belly and metallic blue body while the females are much duller in color.

Butterfly cod What is a butterfly cod? Butterfly cods are spectacular fish with brilliant colouring and long defensive spiny fins. It is part of the scorpionfish family‚ but unlike other members of this family which often rely on camouflage for protection‚ they swim freely around coral reefs‚ leaving their venomous fins to give them 360 degree protection. They include the firefish (Pterois species) and lionfish (Dendrochirus species). What do they look like? Butterfly cod are characterised by

Porcupinefish (Diodon holocanthus) can inflate themselves by swallowing water (or air). As in other species in the genus Diodon‚ this swelling causes the erection of the long movable spines covering the body. The Long-spined Porcupinefish is a robust fish with rounded dorsal and anal fins. Spines on the forehead of the Long-spined Porcupinefish are slightly shorter to much longer than are those immediately behind the pectoral fin base. Long-spined Porcupinefish have a broad dark bar through the eyes

relatives. In summer‚ dogfish migrate northward to the Gulf of Maine Georges Bank region and into Canadian waters and return southward in autumn and winter (Jensen 1965). They tend to school by size and‚ when mature‚ by sex. Dogfish feed on many species of fish and crustaceans‚ but generally target the most abundant species (Link et al. 2002). In the Northwest Atlantic‚ maximum reported ages for males and females are 35 and 40 years‚ respectively (Nammack 1982). The species bears live young‚ with a gestation

Between Sharks and Dolphins Sharks and dolphins are both ocean creatures. From afar they look alike but are contrasting ocean creatures. One of the main allusions is that they are the same type of creature‚ but a shark is a fish while a dolphin is a mammal. Because sharks are fish‚ they are cold blooded‚ and because dolphins are mammals they are warm blooded. Dolphins have blow holes and can only stay under water for up to seven to twelve minutes. Although sharks do not have blow holes‚ they have five

In their native region‚ they are near-shore fish but in their invasive region og the western Atlantic and Caribbean they are found further off shore (Kimball et al. 2004‚ 270). Kimball et al. determined in a laboratory that the chronic lethal minimum temperature for lionfish is about 10° C‚ and the fish stop eating at around 15° C (273). Although these limits are likely to vary in the wild‚ they are useful initial estimates
