of the Organism: Hyalella azteca Chemosensory organs in many crustaceans including Hyalella azteca allow them to locate food and mates while entirely avoiding predators. When detecting environmental changes such as the change in chemicals such as salinity‚ many amphipods have tiny hair-like organs containing sensory cells called sensilla (Hallberg‚ 2011). These chemosensory olfactory receptors are virtually found on many parts of the crustacean body including antennae‚ mouthparts and tips of the walking

Arctic Sea Melting Enhancing the Effect of Global Warming in High Latitudes The world warmed by about 0.7°C in the 20th century. Every year in this century has been warmer than all but one in the last century (1998). If carbon-dioxide levels were magically to stabilize where they are now (almost 390 parts per million‚ 40% more than before the industrial revolution) the world would probably warm by a further half a degree or so as the ocean‚ which is slow to change its temperature‚ caught up.

Amazing animals that can fly These animals are naturally born without wings on their body‚ and most of their relatives are also can not airborne in the air. But with thousands and thousands years of evolution and adaptation to their surroundings‚ they finally found the way how to“flying” without wings. In fact‚ to some of these animals‚ the word “flying” is misleading‚ as they actually gliding in the air between a short to medium distance instead of really fly. They are also often called as the

but when the clearing is minimal the effects can be reversed. The threat to the environment lies with the irreversible clearance and can destroy an entire ecosystem causing environmental threats‚ such as green house gas emissions‚ a rise in soil salinity‚ the destruction of natural habitats for animals‚ the decrease and even extinction in indigenous flora and fauna‚ as well as erosion. Extensive land clearing is a problem in Australia‚ New Zealand and Tasmania. History For the most part‚ land

Sea Slugs Experiment A. These sea slugs were analyzed in an intertidal habitat in the coastal waters of Puerto Rico and the data about the distribution of these organisms were reflected upon a table‚ showing the different times of day and how far the distribution seemed to be. I had graphed this table as to clearly see the distribution of the sea slugs throughout the day. It reflects that during the day time Sea Slugs disperse more freely. However‚ during the night they gather together and

Background Knowledge of the dissolved oxygen (O2) concentration in seawater is often necessary in environmental and marine science. It may be used by physical oceanographers to study water masses in the ocean. It provides the marine biologist with a means of measuring primary production - particularly in laboratory cultures. For the marine chemist‚ it provides a measure of

generally powered by the wind. Because of the Earth’s rotation‚ winds tend to drive currents clockwise in the northern hemisphere. South of the equator‚ they flow in the opposite direction. Deep below the surface‚ difference in water temperature and salinity propel the deep-sea currents that bind the world’s oceans together. Some of ocean currents are only a few miles long‚ and others extend over thousands of miles and encompass vast areas of water. Some are cut short by landmasses‚ and others take
