The Chinese hunted for various reasons, including obtaining food, fur, and other resources for survival, as well as for sport and traditional medicine. Additionally, hunting was often practiced as a way to demonstrate skill and prowess.
Abiotic factors of a bottlenose dolphin?
Some abiotic factors that can impact bottlenose dolphins include water temperature, salinity, pH levels, and oxygen levels in their aquatic environment. These factors can influence the distribution and behavior of bottlenose dolphins, as well as their overall health and well-being. Temperature, in particular, can impact their metabolism and energy expenditure.
How is reflex handled in the nervous system?
I'm not positive, but I think that reflexes are controlled by the sympathetic nervous system (SNS). The sympathetic nervous system is part of the autonomic nervous system (ANS), which is part of the peripheral nervous system (PNS). The SNS is responsible for fight-or-flight responses. For example, if you see a shark coming directly at you, you decide to try to either get away from it (flight) or fight it off (fight). Reflexes are mediated by reflex arcs, which are neural pathways. Some sensory neurons pass directly to the synapse of the spinal cord, rather than the brain. This allows reflexes to occur relatively quickly.
What concepts behind the nature versus nurture issue?
When something is caused by nature, that means that you're born with it by your genetics. In Bowenian therapy, this would be called a vertical stressor.
When something is caused by nurture, that means the environment shaped you to be a certain way. In Bowenian therapy, this would be called a horizontal stressor.
Most post-modern empiricists agree that most of what makes people the way they are is a combination of nature AND nurture. Because of what body, brain structure and genes you were born with, certain things happened to you throughout your life that may or may not have happened to you if you were born differently. They are both interconnected in this sense.
What animal has never killed a human?
There is no known mammal that has never killed a human. While some animals are less likely to harm humans, every animal has the potential to act aggressively if threatened or provoked.
What parts of your body does meiosis occur?
it occurs in the gametes, the sex cells. where mitosis occurs in all other cells that have two halves of chromosomes, meiosis occurs in cells which only have one half of the chromosomes.
Why do people say ''you are what you eat?
Its a figure of speech that means lets say you eat healthy then you would most likely be a skinny person but lets say you go to mc donalds almost every day and eat some chicken sandwiches then you would probably look like a chicken sandwich because it would cause you to become fat.
How many cells would have been present when meiosis 2 was complete?
Meiosis is the process of replicating sex gametes. At the end of a typical meiosis phase II there are 4 cells.
Where is the round window located?
The round window is located in the middle ear, specifically on the medial wall of the tympanic cavity, an air-filled space within the temporal bone of the skull. It is adjacent to the oval window and is covered by a membrane that helps regulate the movement of fluid in the inner ear.
How many people in the whole word?
The total human population of the world was believed
to have crossed the 7-billion mark early in 2014.
Why do monkeys scrach their own bottoms?
Because they like it, it feels good. Especially if you sniff it afterwards. If you have ever tried scratching/sniffing your own bottom, you will know how good it feels. You get a sense of yourself, a clean, fresh, uplifting smell that fills the room with a pleasant fragrance.
What is a group of animals that has a spine?
A group of animals that has a spine is called vertebrates. This group includes mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, and fish. The spine, also known as the vertebral column, provides support and protection for the nervous system.
How does the lion interact with humans?
Lions are typically aggressive and territorial animals, and their interactions with humans can be dangerous. In the wild, lions may attack if they feel threatened or cornered. In captivity, lions may become habituated to humans but can still exhibit unpredictable behavior. It is important to maintain a safe distance and not approach wild lions.
What does the pneumonic Kings play cards on fat green stools mean?
This pneumonic is one of many that help one to remember an living creature's scientific classification.
The sections of naming are as follows:
Kingdom
Phylum
Class
Order
Family
Genus
Species
Kingdom differentiates between animals, plants, bacteria, and a few other things.
Phylum differentiates between animals with a back bone and those without.
Class differentiates between Mammals, Reptiles, Amphibians, Reptiles, Fish, and Birds.
Order differentiates between how the creature eats- be it herbivorous, carnivorous, or omnivorous.
Family, Genus, and Species have many different divisions, and most specifically relate to the animal/creature in question. Most scientists refer to animals by their Genus and Species when they wish to be more specific than using a common name.
Can animals talk to humans in human language?
No, animals cannot talk to humans in human languages. Animals communicate with each other using their own methods such as sounds, body language, and behavior. While some animals can be trained to respond to commands or cues from humans, they cannot speak in human language.
Cows are kept in barns to provide shelter from extreme weather conditions, ensure their safety from predators, and offer a controlled environment for feeding and milking. Barns also help in maintaining hygiene and cleanliness for the cows.
A specialist is a species with a narrow nuche. It survives on a fairly limited diet (e.g. koalas, which feed almost exclusively on certain species of eucalyptus leaves) or is restricted to a particular locality (such as the tuatara of New Zealand, a species found in only a few offshore islands of the country).
Generalists are species with much broader niches. They can survive in a wide variety of habitats, or feed on a range of different foods (e.g. the Virginia opossum, or the mouse).
Will a warthog attack a human?
It's pretty rare, but there have been times when a warthog has attacked a person. They only do this if they feel threatened and trapped. If a person gets bit by a warthog, they should seek medical attention immediately.
Why do some people give birth to abnormal human beings?
First of all, the term abnormal is a little offensive and should be avoided when looking for terms to discuss humans. It's also vague, so my answer will include a variety of possible interpretations of "abnormal."
If you mean physical abnormalities, such as additional fingers/toes or missing limbs, it's either a very rare recessive gene, or it's a birth development problem, of which Fetal Alcohol Syndrome is the most common due to the high rate of alcohol use (and abuse). The rare recessive gene would have to be carried by both parents (since it's recessive), both of whom only have one (unless they exhibit the trait themselves) and would require the gene to be selected from the 2 possibilities in both the mother's egg and the particular sperm cell from the father that fertilizes that egg - a 25% chance, assuming each has 1 recessive, 1 dominant "normal) gene. The odds of both parents even carrying the gene are low because it is a rare gene (otherwise people with more or less than 5 fingers/toes per limb would be more common). Fetal Alcohol Syndrome causes a variety of problems with child development - in severe cases, caused by significant alcohol consumption by the pregnant mother throughout the pregnancy, this can include non-developed limbs or other severe problems of that sort. FAS also causes major mental instability, especially if the mother is drinking in the first few weeks of her pregnancy (and since this is before pregnancy can be detected, it is far wiser for women hoping to get pregnant to avoid alcohol altogether, and the possibility of FAS should be considered in decisions about abortion in the case of unplanned pregnancies.
As for mental issues, many are related to genetics at least somewhat. Certain genes have been identified as requirements in various significant mental disorders, including sociopathy (though that particular one has a number of other requirements during early childhood). Other genetics-related issues are a set of conditions, including Downs Syndrome, involving mismatched chromosome pairings. Most males are born with the XY chromosome pair, while females are born with the XX pair. Some other possible combinations that arise from errors in the cell division process that produces egg and sperm cells are XXX, XXY, XYY, XXXY. I believe there is always at least one X in the groupings, as the X chromosome carries a bunch of important genes (called sex-linked genes, since they're connected to the pairing that determines gender). The X chromosome, or the combination of available X chromosomes in the case of females or some of the above unusual combinations, provides a default for these traits, while the Y chromosome makes only the changes necessary to make a person male (which accounts for men being more succeptible to many genetic traits like baldness, since women have a second X chromosome, thus reducing the chances that baldness (linked to a recessive gene) will be expressed).
Many other mental traits are caused during development of mental pathways. Those that happen in the womb are, as far as I know, completely random, like winning a lottery (though being selected might be better termed "losing" with some lotteries, such as in the story "The Lottery") Post-birth development is governed primarily by nurture rather than nature - how well the kid is raised rather than genetics or in the womb. This category includes a large number of mental traits, probably far more than the genetic or in-the-womb categories, so good parenting is essential. Most people who grow up with an alcoholic father who beats his wife and children do not end up with a good result (though it has happened, and in those cases I am inclined to believe those people have to wrestle with some pretty major inner demons). On the other hand, most children growing up in a good family do end up with a good result (though the reverse is true in this case as well).
If there's a specific issue you're concerned about, I suggest you look it up. On the other hand, if your question was prompted by immediate concerns (like impending parenthood), I suggest you talk to a doctor (either a GP or a Pediatrician, probably)...though I suggest a more politically correct wording for your question.
Of course, everyone is somewhat abnormal, since we all have differing personalities.
Compare the rate of diffusion in a gelatin vs the rate of diffusion in water?
The rate of diffusion in gelatin is slower than in water due to gelatin's denser and more viscous structure that hinders the movement of molecules. The gel-like consistency of gelatin creates more obstacles for molecules to pass through compared to the freer movement in water, leading to a slower rate of diffusion.
Are humans parasitic or free-living organisms?
Humans are considered free-living organisms, as we are capable of obtaining our own food and energy from the environment. While we rely on resources from the environment to survive, we are not considered parasitic because we do not solely depend on a single host for our survival.
Where does reproduction happen?
Reproduction typically occurs within specialized reproductive organs in organisms. In animals, reproduction often takes place in the reproductive tract, such as the uterus or fallopian tubes in females and the testes in males. In plants, reproduction can occur within flowers where pollen is transferred between male and female reproductive organs.
What is cause of Mosquitoes buzzing in people ears?
they make a loud noise when they try to suck your blood
Is it possible for different organisms to mate explain?
Yes it is possible. For instance a horse and a donkey can mate to produce a mule. This is a hybrid of the two and is itself sterile and incapable of producing offspring. Bacteria can also transfer genes between species. Generally with eukaryotes, however, mating rarely occurs outside of one's own species. This is because of many different factors.
1. Habitat isolation - two species that live in separate areas are unlikely to mate, even if they have matching "equipment" so to speak
2. Temporal isolation - sometimes species are only reproductive at certain times of year. If one species is active in spring and another in fall, they will be unable to mate.
3. Behavioral isolation - Animals are generally not attracted to other animals of different species. Sometimes there are courtship displays or procedures required for mating that are only done in the species in question.
4. Mechanical isolation - Some organisms just aren't going to have matching tools. A duck and an elephant, for instance, just aren't gonna do it. Poor duck.
5. Gametic isolation - Sometimes the sperm and eggs of different species are incompatible, or in the case of internal fertilization like humans practice (with sperm deposited inside the female's body in swimming range of the ovaries), sometimes the sperm can't survive inside the body of a female of a different species.
6. Reduced hybrid viability - Sometimes two species can fertilize one another, but the offspring produced is very weak. These offspring are very unlikely to reproduce themselves.
7. Reduced hybrid fertility - like mentioned above, mules are sterile. This means that even when horses and donkeys do mate, they don't produce fertile offspring.
8. Hybrid breakdown - Sometimes fertile hybrids can be produced, but their offspring are fertile.
Sometimes though, you do get matings between organisms considered different species. This should reveal that nature need not abide by our categories! Two different species USUALLY can't mate, but rarely, they do, and even more rarely, they produce robust but sterile offspring (like the mule). Rarer still, they may produce fertile offspring which go on to reproduce and become a species in their own right.
7.
physical barriers (an elephant could never safely couple with a duck), behavioral barriers (an elephant would never WANT to couple with a duck!), and reproductive barriers like
Why your dog teeth chattering drooling?
Dogs may chatter their teeth and drool due to stress, anxiety, excitement, or dental issues like pain or irritation. It could also be a response to a bad taste, nausea, or gastrointestinal problems. If this behavior persists or is accompanied by other concerning symptoms, it's best to consult with a veterinarian for a proper diagnosis and treatment.
