We had to keep running‚ Paltel and I. We had to cover ground before they realised we were gone. The woods were getting closer‚ closer‚ the trees extending their waiting arms to our fleeing figures‚ with their dead and leafless branches covered in thick

The octopus‚ the squid‚ and the sea slugs have evolved their own survival strategies to replace their protective armor. Indeed‚ it is due to the absence of a protective shell the octopus has evolved the largest and most complex brain of all the mollusks. Below is a listing of some of the most common mollusks found on the world’s coral reefs.

Homeostasis is simply how the body keeps conditions inside the same. It is described as the maintenance of a constant internal environment. Generally‚ the body is in homeostasis when its needs

referred to as homeostasis (Waugh and Grant 2010). Claude Bernard was a 19th century French physiologist who first discovered the concept of homeostasis. But it was Walter Cannon‚ a 20th century American physiologist who devised the word “homeostasis” (Marieb and Hoehn 2007). Temperature‚ pH‚ blood pressure‚ water and electrolyte concentration and blood glucose levels are the most important physiological variables maintained by homeostatic mechanisms (Waugh and Grant 2010).).
