Sharks

Yes. There are numerous species of Shark in the waters around Corfu. Including the fabled Great White (Carcharodon carcharias), but try not to worry, actual attacks on humans are very rare. There have only been 31 attacks on humans in the Meditteranean in 200 years. There is a breeding population of Great Whites in the area around Eastern Mediterranean, the Adriatic and Ionian Sea (around Sicily, Malta, the Ionian Islands). Possibly using Blue Finn Tuna as a food source. In 1987 Alfredo Cutajar casught a female Great White (all the largest Great Whites are female) off the coast of Malta, which was origanlly claimed to be 7.13 m (23.4 ft) long. However, are careful photo analysis the true size was calculated being closer to 18.3 ft (5.6 m), still a colosul specimen. Great Whites in this area seem to be larger than average, a specimen that killed a swimmer off Keratsini, Piraeus in 1948 was reported to be 6.4 m (21ft long).

On average, there are about 80 unprovoked shark attacks reported worldwide each year. However, the number of fatal attacks is much lower, usually around 6 per year. It is important to note that the risk of being attacked by a shark is extremely low compared to other risks.

sometimes THEY DO! sometimes THEY DONT!

A shark's spine is composed of cartilage, not bone. This helps sharks remain flexible and maneuver easily in the water. The spine also supports the shark's body and allows for efficient swimming.

No, they are omnivores and eat vegetation if they HAVE TO to survive. They are not COMPLETELY carnivorous(depending on species) My sources: http://www.deepseawaters.com/do-sharks-only-eat-meat.htm

the shark has about 85% of the body is cartilage because with out it they can not move as fast or as agile as they are with it

there are two chambers with a s shaped cosisting of the type of body plan they have

Some species of sharks are hermaphroditic, meaning they have both male and female reproductive organs. This allows them to switch between genders depending on environmental factors or social dynamics within their populations.

Some sharks swim by propelling themselves through the water using their tails, like great white sharks. The fins are only used for balance. Other sharks, like the whale shark, move their bodies from side to side to propel themselves through the water.

Sharks do not have scales like bony fish. Instead, they have rough, tooth-like scales called dermal denticles that provide protection and reduce drag in the water. These denticles also give sharks their rough texture.

The largest recorded shark mouth in history belonged to a 21-foot-long Great White shark, which had a mouth that was about 4 feet wide.

Sharks are predominantly found in saltwater oceans, as they are well adapted to survive in the marine environment. However, some species of sharks can also be found in freshwater habitats such as rivers and lakes.

Angel sharks are predators that primarily feed on fish, crustaceans, and mollusks. They are ambush predators that lie in wait for their prey, using their camouflage to blend in with the ocean floor before striking. They have sharp, pointed teeth that are used to catch and consume their prey.

No.

Most sharks stay only in salt water, and lakes are fresh water.

A few swim some distance into rivers, so for a shark to ever end up in a lake, the lake has to be connected to a river that runs out into the sea, and fairly close to the coast too.

Sharks are fish, while whales are mammals. Sharks have cartilage skeletons, gill slits, and scales, whereas whales have bones, lungs, and smooth skin. Sharks have multiple rows of teeth that are constantly replaced throughout their lives, while whales have baleen plates or simple teeth for feeding.

The lateral line of a shark is a series of small sensory pores that run along each side of the fish, typically from head to tail. These pores allow sharks to detect changes in water pressure and vibrations in their surroundings, helping them locate prey and navigate their environment.

Sharks are opportunistic feeders so the answer is pretty much nothing. Most sharks primarily feed on smaller fish and invertebrates. Some of the larger shark species prey on seals, sea lions, and other marine mammals. Sharks have been known to attack humans when they are confused or curious.

Angel Sharks are endangered, because people living in Mediterranean countries catch angelsharks.

The Japanese Frilled Shark likely died due to lack of oxygen. This rare deep-sea creature is not adapted to shallow water or captivity, which can lead to stress and ultimately death. It is important to provide adequate care and suitable environments for deep-sea animals to prevent such incidents.

There are various temperature zones on Earth. Some of these include tropical zone, polar zone, mountain zone, temperate zone, as well as desert zone.

Sharks have been on Earth for about 450 million years. They evolved from ancient fish and have adapted over time to survive in various ocean environments. Sharks have been able to thrive and diversify due to their unique characteristics and predatory instincts.

It is difficult to estimate the exact number of goblin sharks left in the world as they are a deep-sea species and not widely studied. However, they are considered a vulnerable species due to fishing impacts and habitat destruction. Conservation efforts are being made to protect them and their habitats.

Sharks have multiple rows of teeth in their jaws, with new teeth constantly growing and replacing old ones. This process ensures that the shark always has sharp and efficient teeth for hunting and feeding.

Angel sharks typically live up to 25 years in the wild. However, their lifespan can vary depending on factors like habitat, predators, and human activities.

Hammerhead sharks can live up to around 20 to 30 years in the wild, depending on factors such as food availability, habitat, and predation.
