The study is focused on the evolution of the Littorina obtusata‚ also commonly known as the Flat Periwinkle Snail. This experiment focuses on Littorina Obtusata snails due to their evolution in shell thickness and shell shape. The purpose of the experiment is to understand the process of evolution and natural selection on organisms and why they occur; understanding the importance. By doing the experiment I hope to explore the effects of predation on a population‚ how predation influences evolution

Challenges of Interpersonal Communication within the Japanese Culture One way of defining interpersonal communication is to compare it to other forms of communication. In so doing‚ one would examine how many people are involved‚ how physically close they are to one another‚ how many sensory channels are used‚ and the feedback provided. Interpersonal communication differs from other forms of communication in that there are few participants involved‚ the people who interact are in close physical proximity

“right-handed” hermit crabs in which the right cheliped is larger and the abdomen coils clockwise. P. samuelis is a detritovore‚ but will opportunistically feed upon living plants or animal matter. Unlike other crustaceans‚ hermit crabs require the shell of another organism to protect their soft abdomen‚ which is not covered by the same chitinous exoskeleton

common characteristic of most mollusks is their shell. One of the largest groups‚ the snails‚ is renowned for their shells. Snails are univalves‚ which means they have one shell. And it is this shell that for many people is the epitome of the ocean. There is perhaps no other ocean treasure that displays more diversity and beauty than the shell. Conchology‚ the study and collection of shells is a popular hobby the world over. The bivalves‚ or two-shell mollusks include the clams‚ scallops‚ and oysters

Notes On Atomic Structure * Atom is the smallest particle of an element- All 117 elements has atoms * Bohr model: - Planetary model (see Figure 1 below) 1. Sun (proton & neutron= nucleus) 2. Planets (electrons) 3. Orbit (shell) Figure 1: Bohr model * Each type of atoms has a certain number of electrons and protons that differentiate it from the atoms of other elements Example: 1 proton 1 electron= Hydrogen (1 type elements) 2 proton

B. Procedure Shells were used to represent the teeth since it also has calcium carbonate which is found in teeth. Four shells were prepared and were first soaked in soda which was Royal for 15 minutes. After 15 minutes‚ the shells were then placed to dry up for 5 minutes. Then‚ the shells were ready to be brushed with toothpaste. The four shells were brushed with different toothpastes for 2 minutes each shell with the same brush stroke. Shell A was brushed with Brand A. Shell B was brushed with

Chapter II Research Body Chalk- is a soft‚ white‚ porous sedimentary rock‚ a form of limestone composed of the mineral calcite. Calcite is calcium carbonate or CaCO3. It forms under reasonably deep marine conditions from the gradual accumulation of minute calcite plates shed from micro-organisms called coccolithophores. It is common to find chert or flint nodules embedded in chalk. Chalk can also refer to other compounds including magnesium silicate and calcium sulfate. Chalk has greater resistance

numbers you are going to need to round the number of scutes to get an age‚ age will not always be accurate. When graphing the results the y-axis was the length of the shell and the x-axis was the age. When measuring the carapace start from the beginning of the shell to the end‚ do not measure head‚ tail‚ or legs. When measuring the shell you should use a flexible ruler and you should measure it using
