How much does the normal squid weigh not giant or collossal squid. normal AVERAGE squid?
The normal squid weighs approximately 10 stone.
Could octopuses and cows mate?
No ... cows can't survive underwater, and the octopus can't graze on land ...
Their ancestors had internal shells, but now all the squid has left is a chitin-like substance called a "pen," and is used as a flexible back bone.
What are the features of the chambered nautilus?
Some features of the chambered nautilus include a perfect equiangular spiral, countershading on the shell and around 90 tentacles. You can get more information about this at the Wikipedia. Once on the page, type "Chambered nautilus" into the search field at the top of the page and press enter to bring up the information.
Is a snail a cephalopod mollusk?
A snail is a mollusk, but not a cephalopod. That is; that they are in the Kingdom Animalia, and the Phylum Mollusca. Snails are actually members of the Class Gastropoda, which translates to "body-foot". Cephalopods belong to the Kingdom Animalia and the Phylum Mollusca, but their Class is Cephalopoda, which translates to "head-foot". Some common Cephalopods are octopi and squid.
When was the first sighting of the kraken?
Well a Kraken is a mythological creature, so there never was a first sighting of something that didn't exist. But it was seen in Pirate's of the Caribbean ;)
What year was the kraken story written?
Carolus Linnaeus included kraken as cephalopods with the scientific name Microcosmus in the first edition of his Systema Naturae (1735); but not the story, Erik Pontoppidan, bishop of Bergen, in his "Natural History of Norway" (Copenhagen, 1752-3) did more, but even before them there were accounts in Icelandic sagas and sea stories.
What year was the nautilus submarine invented?
It depends on which one you're referring to, as their have been 2 with the name Nautilus that were important during the evolution of submarine technology.
Robert Fulton's Nautilus
Robert Fulton's submarine Nautilus, designed between 1793-97, was the first practical working submarine design of record. It had a working ballast system, dove to 25 feet, and successfully attacked stationary targets. Most importantly, it returned to the surface without any deaths.
Living in France at the time, Fulton petitioned the French Government twice to fund his project, but was rejected. He later approached the French Minister of Marine to subsidize the construction, and was finally given permission in 1800. Though it had initially impressed the French during trials, the Nautilus suffered from leaks, which is the primary reason Fulton gave up. When Napoleon wanted to see it, he found that Fulton had already dismantled the Nautilus and destroyed many of its key components. Napoleon thought that Fulton was a charlatan, and the French Navy had no use for what they believed then to be a suicidal machine.
Even though Fulton's project didn't continue, the British, wanting to keep control over what appeared to them to be a potentially lethal device, brought Fulton to Britain to continue his submarine work. However, with Nelson's victory over the French fleet at the Battle of Trafalgar, the French threat was eliminated, and Fulton was ignored until he finally left to return to America. His papers were left at the U.S. Consul in London, and went undiscovered until 1920. He never again worked on submarine designs, though his contributions to submarine development are still remembered and honored today.
Hyman G. Rickover, Nuclear Power, and the USS Nautilus (SSN-571)
Not until the advent of Nuclear Power and the vision of Naval Engineer Hyman G. Rickover (Admiral Rickover, "Father of the Nuclear Navy"), did submarines become true submersibles.
Until that time, submarines were essentially designed as surface vessels that had a limited submerged operational capability, and were designed to run faster on the surface than underwater. Captured U-boats after WWII showed how far the Germans had advanced the art of submarine hull design and technology; while many of these innovations found their way into modern submarines, it was Rickover who realized that harnessing a nuclear reactor in a small design used to power submarines (and later ships) would give submarine warfare a significant technological boost. Unlike diesel-electric technology, nuclear power offers the advantage of huge power generation, which means better equipment (sensors, weapons, navigation, huge fresh water / air generating capacity, etc.), underwater speed (a major departure from previous designs) and virtually unlimited cruising range.
With Rickover's successful pressurized-water reactor design (still in use today) installed on the United States' (and the world's) first nuclear powered submarine, USS Nautilus (SSN-571), nuclear power changed submarine technology and warfare from the limited role that it had in previous conflicts to the multiple mission threat it is today.
In what year did the USS Nautilus make its history-making transpolar voyage?
The year 1958, hopefully.
What kind of a man Captain Nemo was before creating the Nautilus?
He was an inventive man.
He was also a happier man. Nemo is not his real name. It means "no man" which is what Odysseus answered when Polyphemus asked his name in Homer's Odyssey. Nemo was a Polish aristocrat until Poland was wiped off the map by Russia. With his loyal followers he built the Nautilus and went to sea. The book alludes that Captain Nemo is haunted by his past and the life he has lost, but you will find no reference to his nationality in the book. France had recently signed a treaty with Russia, and Jules Verne was forced to edit Nemo's nationality so as not to offend the Russians.
cuttle fish have a large learning compasity and would be considered smart in some ways but are not as smart in others, but if your looking for the smartest cephlapod the octopus is probably a better choice.
Yes :) they love it. For anymore info on quail I recommend "Keeping Quail by Katie Thear"
Where do you find Kyrin in nautilus in Maplestory?
You can find Kyrin in the submarine in Nautilus Harbor. She is in the top floor. Go left when you enter and take the portal that says 'To Upper Corridor of the Nautilus'. She is at the left-most portal.
How did Jack Sparrow survive the kraken?
At the end of the movie "Dead man's chest" Kraken killed Jack and sank his ship. Thus Jack was sent into Davy Jones Locker (it looks like desert in "At world's end") where he was nor dead nor alive, he was stuck there forever. Later his crew of the Black Pearl arrives along with William,Elizabeth and Sao Feng's creew to save him.
Kraken was killed by Davy Jones because of Lord Beckett's order.
What is the prey of the vampire squid?
small crustaceans eg. crabs shrimp. fish but some octopi are cannibal
How do cuttlefish communicate with gestures?
I wouldn;t say they communicate via 'gestures' but more with chemical messages which cuttle fish emit as colourful lights on their bodies. These messages can be used to either attract a mate, warn of danger, camoflauge themselves etc. If you would like more information, check out http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cuttlefish#Changing_color
What do bivalves have to do with a octopus?
They are related: cousins of sorts.
