Do dolphins live in antarctica?
Yes, Beluga whales are found in the Arctic Ocean, along the coasts of Alaska, Canada, Greenland and Russia. In the adjoining seas of Sea of Okhotsk, the Bering Sea, the Gulf of Alaska, the Beaufort Sea, Baffin Bay, Hudson Bay and the Gulf of St. Lawrence Seaway. Belugas are well adapted to both a cold ocean habitat (0 degrees Celsius) and warmer freshwater habitat.
The wise penguin will grow up by paying very close attention to their parents' advice, eating properly, exercising regularly, NEVER swimming alone, and avoiding various types of shark, Orcas, Leopard Seals, Skuas, and of course, humans.
How many fishing companies are in antarctica?
Like in most places on Earth, fish live in large schools at the bottom of the sea, so numbering them is naturally quite difficult. However, it is estimated, that about 30 million fish do live in Antarctic waters.
These aren't any ordinary fish either. They can anti-freeze themselves so the biting coldness of Antarctica doesn't kill them. I'm not sure what the species of fish are, but I know cod is one of them.
Did mammoths live in Antarctica?
No, mammoths didn't live in Antarctica. It's too cold there, and there is no food chain for any animal.
What fossils animals were found on Antarctica?
The first dinosaur fossil found in Antarctica was an ankylosaur. Cryolophosaurus was the first carnivorous dinosaur discovered on that continent, and its remains may have been identified before those of Antarctopelta.
i remember it was cryolophasaurus
The first dinosaur to be discovered in Antarctica was the Antarctopelta oliveroi, an ankylosaurian dinosaur. However, it was the second one to be named. The first dinosaur to be named was the Cryolophosaurus ellioti, a species of theropod dinosaur that had a crest.
Is there a list of all fish in Antarctica?
Yes, there is a list of all the fish in Antarctica. This list could be found by doing research in a library, or looking in a book about animal life in Antarctica.
Another Answer
There are no fish on the continent. Antarctica is a continent and fish are sea animals. You could find a list of fish that thrive in the Southern Ocean, and depending on how much of the Southern Ocean you want to include, develop a comprehensive list.
Do chickens live on Antarctica?
No, chickens can't live in Antarctica. It's too cold there for any animal to live on the continent.
Is there a McDonald's in Antarctica?
No it's too cold. but i swear i saw one on google earth. oh well.
haha yeah the guy would be like "he-he-here i-i-is yo-your fre-fre-french fri-fri-fries s-sir".
How do the antarctic cod survive the waters of antarctica?
Codfish eat herring and lobster
polar cod feed on plankton and krill.
What are the names of some edible fish from Antarctica?
Fish are not part of any popularity contest in Antarctica, since there is no commercial fishing allowed in the waters that surround the continent.
What are words that describe Antarctica and start with the letter x?
Yes, many. X-cold is the most popular, followed by x-treme snow. Glad to be of help!
Will your mobile phone work at antarctica?
Mobile phones require towers to transmit signals. There are no towers of this type in Antarctica, so, no, your mobile phone would not be useful to place or receive calls.
However, everything that is self-contained in the device should operate as expected -- indoors only. Out of doors, the cold would drain the battery in a short time.
Things a computer engineering student should know?
HERE ARE MY LIST OF THINGS COMPUTER ENGINEERING STUDENTS SHOULD KNOW!!!!
- The next billion customers: The IT revolution has probably reached a billion people of the world so far. In the next 5 years, it will reach the next billion. These will be a very different set of people. Many of them will be illiterate -- so you need to focus on non-text, non-English interfaces -- video, animations, voice recognition. Search for "English Seekho" to get an idea of what I mean. Most won't have money or electricity for computers, so mobile devices will rule -- so you need to start playing with mobile platforms like Android. In general, search for the "the next billion" and you'll find some interesting material put together by the likes of Nokia, and MIT giving you ideas on what to focus on.
- Usability: As IT touches the lives of more and more people, less and less of them will be "computer savvy", and less and less of them will view computing devices as something that needs to be learnt. Consequently, the products that will succeed, will be the ones that are easy to use. And making something easy to use is rather difficult. It is a sub-discipline of computer science, and there is a lot of theory, and a bunch of well-defined algorithms and practices you can use to make things easy to use. The whole area is called HCI (Human Computer Interaction), and UCD (User Centered Design) is a part of it. It's an area that you must be familiar with.
- Computer Science Fundamentals: This will never go out of fashion, and yes, when I look at students coming out of our colleges, this appears to be a rather neglected area. Far too much emphasis on specific programming languages, and specific "technologies" is a mistake. Whatever the future holds, you will be well served by knowing the basic theory of computer sciences. Learn data-structures and algorithms. If you don't have a favourite data-structure, and an algorithm that you find beautiful, then your computer science education is incomplete. If, after seeing an algorithm, your first thought is not about the complexity of the algorithm (O(n), O(log n), etc.), then you need to hit your books again. If you've only learned Java and C#, and you don't really understand pointers, heaps, stacks, you will sooner or later be at a disadvantage. Understand the basics. And while you're at it, also learn mathematics and statistics.
- Presentation skills: This is not a computer science skill, but this is one of the most important skills that computer science students are missing. You must treat presentation as equally important, or more important than your program, design, and algorithms. And you must spend as much time learning presentation (from books, in classes, and in practice) as you spent on programming languages, and computer science subjects. I'm sure you haven't done that, hence this item in my list. You should know how to write well. Not just papers and documents, but much more importantly, emails, and blog posts, and facebook wall postings, and tweets. You must think about what the user/reader/client wants to know (instead of what you know and want to tell). And of course, you must know how to speak well. How to tell a story instead of listing some arcane facts about your work. How to leave out stuff that you find extremely interesting, but the listener doesn't.
- Economics: Scott Adams, the creator of Dilbert says: "When you have a working knowledge of economics, it's like having a mild super power." Basically, if you understand the fundamentals of economics, you can see and understand what drives people and technologies and success and failure a lot better than people who do not understand it. I hated the fact that I was made to study economics in IIT for my computer science course. It seemed like a complete waste of my time. Now, looking back, I think it was probably the most important course.
Where can you find penguins in Antarctica?
There are no penguins in Canada. Penguins live in the southern hemisphere. You can find some in zoos or in the Bio-dome in Montreal.
Why is there a segment of Antarctica nobody has claimed?
According to the Antarctic Treaty, all existing claims at the time of signing (1960s) were held in abeyance and all future claims were prohibited.
This means that existing claims -- some of which overlap each other, and unclaimed portions of the Antarctic continent all fall under the treaty and its governance.
The Antarctic Treaty dedicates all land south of 60 degrees S, to science -- the scientific exploration of questions having to do with the health of planet earth.
How do you fish in Antarctica?
There is no fishing in Antarctica or near Antarctica, anywhere south of 60 degrees South Latitude.
Does most people go to heaven?
The Bible says that everybody has the chance to go to heaven. There is no set number.
People have the choice to accept or reject God's offer of eternal life.
Rom 3:22 God puts people right through their faith in Jesus Christ. God does this to all who believe in Christ, because there is no difference at all:
Rom 3:23 everyone has sinned and is far away from God's saving presence.
Rom 3:24 But by the free gift of God's grace all are put right with him through Christ Jesus, who sets them free.
What is the required clothing for the visitors of Antarctica?
In antarctica, the best clothing is layering. Start off with a thin layer that can get rid of sweat and whatnot. Next is a bunch of thin layers like longjohns, sweaters, sweatshirts,etc. The last ayer is a wind proof coat that's really warm. Theres very little rain fall in antarctica so waterproof would be pointless. Also make sure you cover up the extremities, like your fingers and toes. Wear thin layered gloves or mittens. Wear nice good boots with layered socks. Also make sure to wear hats and scarfs.
Do herring live in Antarctica?
No. Salmon's natural habitats are the North Pacific and the Atlantic oceans.
Where do you find most of the life in the antarctica ecosystem?
You find the most life around Antarctica in the great Southern Ocean in the form of marine life. The continent is too cold to support any kind of animal life.
Where was the hottest place in Antarctica?
The highest temperatures in Antarctica are generally experienced in the Antarctic Peninsula.
What animal in Antarctica is top of the food chain?
Some are seals but the answer you are looking for is penguins.
