Harris Case Analysis Objective: Should Harris invest into the shrimp processing plant? Issues: 1. Will this processing plant have a value today that is greater than or equal to the cost today? -If the NPV of the plant is greater than zero‚ then we should move forward with the investment. NPV Analysis: Value> Cost Value: PV: Value right now PV= forecast of future cash returns (FCR) -We used FCR to determine how much cash we get back and can deem the plan a good investment if we can

Investigating the Control Dynamics of an Algae-Brine Shrimp Ecosystem 113437768 Introduction The purpose of this lab is to investigate whether an ecosystem consisting of marine algae and brine shrimp are controlled by top-down or bottom-up mechanisms.

Spearers and Smashers (Vighna) Spearers and smashers utilize their raptorial appendages in different ways due to differences in the morphology of their dactyl. Through observations‚ it can be concluded that dismemberment is primarily how the mantis shrimp kills its prey. It attacks other animals‚ either by smashing or spearing‚ and then tears them apart. Spearers have a slim‚ flat‚ blade-like propodus and a dactyl armed with 2-17 barbs or spikes. The raptorial appendage is designed for speed‚ and
