Closest at lampfall Like children‚ like the moth-flame metaphor‚ The Coleman’s humming jet at the sea’s edge A tuning fork for our still family choir Like Joseph Wright of Derby’s astrological lecture Casts rings of benediction round the aged. I never tired of ocean’s quarrelling‚ Its silence‚ its raw voice‚ Nor of these half-lit‚ windy leaves‚ gesticulating higher "Rejoice‚ rejoice..." Language/Style/Tone in first verse : metaphorical ( like children‚moth flame metaphor)‚ melifilious

Coast Blue Fin Tuna. The West Coast Blue Fin Tuna is a widely recognized fish and the West Coast Tuna Fishing industry is very familiar with this marine life form. For this industry‚ the Fukushima leak is the worst possible event. Phytoplankton‚ plankton‚ and many other marine life forms feed on the radioactive chemicals being released by the gallons every day. This consumption of chemicals makes its way up the food chain to the West Coast Blue Fin Tuna. Not only is it now harmful to eat‚ the West

The marine biome is one of the largest biomes on the earth. It spans three fourths of the earths surface. It includes all five oceans the Arctic‚ Indian‚ Southern‚ Atlantic‚ and Pacific. In it There are many many types of fish and also some mammals. The oceans span wide and deep. There are also plants in the ocean. The ocean is a vast and mysterious place where we are still discovering many things about it everyday. The physical attributes of the ocean depend on which ocean you explore‚for example

Green‚ the Soylent Corporation has branched out a bit‚ turning‚ according to its advertising literature‚ to the vastness of the oceans for its raw materials— whereas Soylents Yellow and Red are soybean derivatives‚ Soylent Green is made from oceanic plankton‚ the closest thing to an infinite nutritional resource that the hard-pressed Earth still has to offer. Unfortunately‚ the very newness of Soylent Green means that it is in chronically short supply‚ despite the nearly limitless quantities in which

INTRODUCTION In some air-breathing fishes‚ air-breathing organs become incorporated between the heart and Systematic circulation and to pump blood into these organs along with the gill‚ heart has to face an extra load. It may cause an increase in the heart dimension of certain fishes. Generally‚ more active species possess larger heart per unit body weight than to the sedimentary fishes (Clark‚ 1927). The ratio of heart and body weight in Amphipnous cuchia and Channa punctata was studied by Munshi

Coral reefs and how chemical substances can affect these living organisms is what the research is conducted on. We tend to have a genuine love for coral reefs whenever we view someone’s scuba diving photos. Seeing fishes swim around coral reefs is what many assume is the purpose of the reefs‚ but many do not know their real purpose. However‚ it comes down to learning the importance of coral reefs and how to protect these species that are very much a part of our ocean. This investigation is important

internal valves that use hydraulic pressure. The tube feet help the starfish in feeding‚ as well as locomotion. Most species of starfish eat a variety of foods‚ some being meat‚ and others plants‚ therefore making it an omnivore. Its diet includes plankton‚ coral‚ and oysters. The larger species tend to eat birds‚ predominantly the sea gull. The starfish will catch the bird while it is searching for fish to feed on and then proceed to drown it. It then eats and digests its prey. These large starfish

the transmission of light in the sea: (1) selective absorption of light by water‚ (2) scattering of light by tiny suspended particles such as small bubbles of air or gas‚ (3) selective reflections of light by other particles such as fine dust or plankton and (4) an admixture of the reflected light of the sky.

products of digestion and respiration are eliminated through the excurrent siphon. Bivalves are adapted to breathe under water by using gill membranes. They function like lungs that take in oxygen and give off carbon dioxide. Water currents containing plankton and organic debris pass through the clams siphon which is propelled by the ciliary action of the gill surfaces. The mucus that coats the surface of the gills and mantle captured the food along the clam’s mouth‚ located opposite its siphon. A one-way

themselves some human flesh? Hardly at all‚ as it turns out. Their job is to live by eating‚ breathing and reproducing – just like any other animal. They eat fish and other marine animals. People are not part of their normal diet. Some sharks are even plankton-eaters. And they don’t eat all that much! According to the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles‚ sharks that have been studied eat about 2% of their body weight per day - slightly less than most humans. That means a 45-kilogram (100 pound) shark
