Zoologists

Yes, some zoologists work as zoo keepers at zoos. Zoo keepers are responsible for the health and well-being of the animals in their care, which aligns with the expertise of zoologists who study animal behavior, physiology, and conservation.

Dioscoro Rabor was a prominent biologist who made significant contributions to the study of Philippine biodiversity and conservation. His work focused on documenting and preserving the flora and fauna of the Philippines, leading to the establishment of protected areas and conservation programs. Rabor's research contributed to the understanding and protection of the country's unique ecosystems and species.

There are two main types of alligators: the American alligator and the Chinese alligator. The American alligator can be found in the southeastern United States, while the Chinese alligator is native to eastern China.

Good question! The basic idea is to cause particles of varying sizes to move through a gel made up of some physical 'mesh'. Common biological gels are made of Agarose proteins (for separating nucleic acids) or Acrylamide/bisAcrylamide 'mesh' for separating proteins. Smaller molecules can move through the network faster, and so will move farther in a particular time period (minute, half-hour, hour, whatever). So, if you run a gel for 30 minutes or so, you will have a distribution of sizes, with the smallest pieces out in front, and the larger ones progressively further behind. Often you will have these molecules moving in 'bands', which are clumps of lots of a molecule which are the same size. Usually, you get the proteins or nucleic acids to move by running a current across the gel, as these molecules have a slight electrical charge. If you also run a set of comparable molecules of known sizes (usually called a 'size standard') then you have something to compare your results to so you can tell what size a particular band is. You can have a 'separating gel' game yourself, if you want: set up an obstacle course (with tunnels and other barriers of various kinds), get about 30-50 people, with kids of all ages and adults of all ages, and have them all start at the same time. Then, when the first person gets about 2/3 of the way through, blow a whistle and have them all stop where they are. Then see how they're arranged - take a photo so you can have a visual record of your experiment!

The salary of a zoo animal specialist can vary depending on factors such as experience, location, and the specific zoo. On average, they can earn between $30,000 to $60,000 per year. Specialized positions or those with advanced degrees or certifications may earn more.

Cud-chewing animals are called ruminants. Ruminants are any hoofed mammal that digests its food in two steps. In the first step, the food is chewed and partially digested in the mouth. The food is then regurgitated and chewed again (the cud). This second step allows the animal to extract more nutrients from the food.

Ruminants include cattle, sheep, goats, buffalo, deer, and camels.

Molting is the process of secreting new cuticle. It ends into ecdysis i.e. separating new and old cuticle and shedding old cuticle. It has 3 phases preparatory, ecdysis and post ecdysis. This process ends by eclosion i.e. final emergence out of old cuticle.[Ref: insects]

The salary of a zookeeper can vary depending on factors like experience, location, and job responsibilities. On average, a zookeeper in the United States may make anywhere from $400 to $800 per week.

The bee hummingbird has the smallest brain of any bird species, weighing only about 0.26 grams. Despite its small size, the bee hummingbird exhibits complex behaviors and adaptations for survival.

Sure! Some animals that hatch from eggs include birds, reptiles (like snakes and turtles), fish, amphibians (like frogs and salamanders), and some insects (like butterflies and beetles).

I don't know, but I saw one yesterday like that, Jet black with 3 yellow dot pattern, then a white dot then the 3 yellow dot pattern, doing this along the mid section nearly the full length of the approx. 4 foot long body.. near Dunlap, Tn...

We call them rats because their scientific name is Rattus norvegicus. All the pet and lab rats are belonging to this species. The tiny black colour, house hold rats are under the species of Rattus rattus.The strain name depends on what kind of rat it is.l

The cartilaginous rings provide structural support and help prevent the windpipe from collapsing during breathing. They also maintain the patency of the airway, allowing for the passage of air into and out of the lungs without obstruction.

The cis-Golgi network is located near the endoplasmic reticulum and receives newly synthesized proteins from the ER. The trans-Golgi network is located towards the plasma membrane and sorts and packages proteins into vesicles for delivery to their final destinations. In summary, the cis-Golgi functions in receiving while the trans-Golgi functions in sorting and packaging.

The salary of an aviculturist can vary depending on experience, education, and location. On average, aviculturists in the United States earn between $30,000 to $60,000 per year. Those with more experience and specialized skills can earn higher salaries.

Zoologists work closely with other scientists such as ecologists, veterinarians, geneticists, and wildlife biologists. They also collaborate with field researchers, conservationists, and resource managers to study and protect animal populations and their habitats. Additionally, they may work with government agencies, non-profit organizations, and zoos to address wildlife conservation and management issues.

The weight of the largest turkey every recorded as 86 pounds. The record was set in 1989 in London.

The powerhouse of the animal cell is the mitochondria. Mitochondria generate energy for the cell through a process called cellular respiration, producing adenosine triphosphate (ATP) as the energy currency. They contain their own DNA and are crucial for various cellular processes.

Tranquilizers are a type of medication that act on the central nervous system to reduce anxiety, calm the individual, and promote relaxation. They are often prescribed to help manage anxiety and stress-related disorders, as well as to aid in sleep. It's important to use tranquilizers under the guidance of a healthcare professional due to potential side effects and risk of dependence.

No, a butterfly is a chordate. Chordates are animals that have a notochord, which is a flexible rod-like structure that supports the body. Insects, like butterflies, belong to the phylum Arthropoda.

Yes, it is legal to have a tiger in the UK, though there are special conditions such us needing a thick metal gate with a wide area and a double gate. As well as needing a speacilist check up on the tiger regulary, to make sure there is no threat to it or anyone around it.

If the producer of a food chain was killed off, it could disrupt the entire ecosystem. This could lead to a decrease in food availability for consumers further up the food chain, causing a ripple effect on the entire ecosystem. The loss of the producer could lead to population declines or even extinctions of other species in the ecosystem.

Because a dogs respiratory system is different from a humans.

More accurately, dogs don't hyperventilate when they pant. They are breathing at higher frequencies, but they are ventilating dead space in the airways and not increasing gas exchange relative to metabolic rate. The definition of hyperventilation is a decrease in the partial pressure of carbon dioxide in the blood, which doesn't occur in panting dogs. A more correct term for the increase in ventilation that occurs when dogs pant is hyperpnea.

The function of Fehling's testing is to detect aldehydes. There are 2 solutions necessary. The chemical composition is 7 g CuSO4.5H2O dissolved in distilled water containing 2 drops of dilute sulfuric acid and 35g of potassium tartrate and 12g of NaOH in 100 ml of distilled water.

Non-myelinated fibers appear as thin, unmyelinated axons within bundles of nerve fibers. They lack the myelin sheath that surrounds some other nerve fibers, which gives them a more transparent or grayish appearance compared to myelinated fibers. Non-myelinated fibers are typically smaller in diameter and conduct nerve impulses more slowly than myelinated fibers.
