Zoologists

No, chaetognaths are not considered deuterostomes. They belong to the phylum Chaetognatha (arrow worms), which are classified as protostomes. They are characterized by certain developmental and anatomical features that distinguish them from deuterostomes.

A zoologist may observe the animal's behavior, take notes on its physical characteristics, study its habitat and interactions with other animals, and collect data for research purposes. They may also assess the animal's health and well-being in order to help with conservation efforts.

Some major benefits of being a janitor include job stability, opportunities to work independently, and the satisfaction of seeing tangible results from your work. Additionally, janitorial roles are often essential and valued in maintaining clean and safe environments for others.

Yes, zebras do have knuckles on their legs. Knuckles are formed by the joint between two bones, providing flexibility and movement in the limb. Zebras use their knuckles to support their weight and move efficiently while running.

Crayfish have internal fertilization, where the male transfers sperm directly into the female's reproductive system through a specialized structure called the gonopod. Once the male fertilizes the eggs inside the female, she carries them externally attached to her swimmerets until they hatch.

Baby clownfish are born in the ocean, typically near coral reefs or rocky crevices where their parents have laid their eggs. The eggs hatch into larvae that eventually settle on the ocean floor and develop into juvenile clownfish.

Yes, it is possible to be a zookeeper and a zoologist. A zookeeper is responsible for caring for animals in a zoo, while a zoologist studies animals and their behavior in the wild or in captivity. Both roles involve working with animals, but the focus and responsibilities may differ.

Bivalves are typically dioecious, meaning individuals have separate male and female reproductive organs. However, some species can change sex throughout their lifespan, exhibiting some degree of sexual plasticity.

The weight of a fisher can vary but on average, they weigh between 4 to 14 pounds.

Monk seals can stay underwater for up to 20 minutes at a time, but they typically average around 8-12 minutes per dive. They are skilled divers that can reach depths of around 1,000 feet while hunting for food.

Metabolic water is important for desert animals because it is produced as a byproduct of metabolic processes, providing them with a supplementary source of water in arid environments where water is scarce. This adaptive mechanism allows desert animals to survive for extended periods without access to external sources of water.

Wolf sharks are just phonies. There's no such thing as wolf shark.

Water lilies have evolved over millions of years to thrive in aquatic environments. Their leaves are adapted to float on the water surface, while their roots anchor them in the sediment. The flowers have also adapted to attract pollinators such as bees and beetles.

"Are killer whales the ocean's masters, or its enigmatic guardians?"

A group of predators can be called a pack, pride, or ambush, depending on the specific type of predator (such as wolves, lions, or tigers). The term used often reflects the social structure and hunting behavior of the species.

Deep grooves on a starfish's surface, known as ambulacral grooves, contain tube feet used for movement, feeding, and respiration. These grooves are part of the starfish's water vascular system, which helps circulate water throughout its body.

It depends on if you're planning on working as the director or the janitor.

For any of the aquarium-specific jobs (i.e. not janitor, bookkeeper, sales clerk, etc.), you should probably expect that the minimum requirements will be at least a bachelor of science in marine biology or some closely related field. Some positions may require post-graduate degrees, and it's possible that you might be hired for certain junior-level positions prior to actually completing your bachelor's degree.

The first body plan is a Medusa bosy plan which is like a jellyfish

the one above is a medusa. the mouth it located at the bottom of the body. The appendeges are also located at the bottom.

A polyp (on the right) ,like a sea anemone, has the appendeges at the top along with the mouth. They are also attached to solid ground unlike Medusas.

The location of a zoologist's job is absolutely random. Zoologists can work in labs, zoos, for private research agencies, the list goes on forever. Basically, anywhere there are animals or people fighting to protect the rights of animals.

A scientist who studies big cats is known as a felidologist. They specialize in researching and understanding the behavior, ecology, and conservation of big cat species such as lions, tigers, leopards, and cheetahs.

Jane Bolin died on January 8, 2007 at the age of 98.

The wattle gene is recessive, That means that the parents both have to have wattles, or the they have to have at least one parent with wattles.

A person who shows animals to people and educates them about the animals is typically called a zookeeper, wildlife educator, or animal handler.
