So I am doing my research paper to know more information about this rare fish The life story of Batoidea page 3 Title: Shocking Discovery! Torpedo Ray in Wellfleet Bay Name of source : http://www.turtlejournal.com/?p=1448 and http://www.answersingenesis.org/creation/v24/i4/sharks.asp Summary : this journal is talking about Ray fish's life style and also about their normal weight , long . On the one hand , this journal also talking some information about where do they live , what do they eat and why do they be killed ? Assess: This journal is very interesting, so I will use the information in this journal for my research paper. Reflex: I really like the journal I’ve just found on internet.
Others would have been active predators and hunted other trilobites, worms, etc. 1) This particular trilobite peacefully reaches the end of its natural life and dies. Its body might not necessarily remain on that part of the ocean floor where it dies, because natural decomposition can lift the animal up into the water column, where currents can carry it to another area. 2) Fossils of all kinds can be found in sediments deposited in turbulent (high energy) environments near the coastline or mouth of a large river, complete shells and skeletons require undisturbed conditions. A quiet seafloor with minimal light, low oxygen levels and a soft muddy composition are among the conditions suitable for preserving organic remains.
Ocean Beach Beach Profile This photo was taken from the peak of the dunes at Ocean Beach. To measure the beach profile we used a ‘dumpy level’ and started at the water’s edge and carried on until we reached the dunes at Ocean Beach. The beach measured 110m, the overall change from the water’s edge to the peak of the dunes was 2.34m, and the beach was a long gentle sloping beach. This is shown in the photo but also in the graph I made with all three beach profiles placed on it, which is found at the end of my presentation of results and analysis of data. A gentle sloping beach is found at Ocean Beach which is caused by long shore drift, long shore drift is the name given to the process by which the beach sediment (fine sand at Ocean Beach) is transported along the coastal area by the action of waves.

Other species raised as pets in other parts of the world include the Australian land hermit crab and the strawberry land hermit crab. The ideal crab
Chelonia mydas sp. also known as the green sea turtle. This is the only species under the genus Chelonia. Besides, this species can be found both in tropical and subtropical seas around the world. Most of the adult of this species are feeding on the marine plants life such as kelp and the algae while the young prefer more carnivores feeding style.
In my struggle to reach the pier I managed to stop beneath it to cool my crisp feet. I strolled along the ocean’s edge as the chilled water revived my warm feet as I felt the sand jittering in the shallow water. Rough concrete pillars each blanketed at base with slimy green and black mold were cool to the touch. Encompassing these pillars were large heavy dark rocks carpeted with gooey moss and a few with sharp pointy edges. Coupled with these pillars and rocks were small skittish sand crabs.
The lightning whelk is actually an animal, and not a shell. The animal inside is a very dark color. They are found in the Gulf of Mexico and the Southeast coast of the US, ranging from South Carolina to Texas. They mostly eat oysters, clams, and scallops. Some of their predators are gulls, crabs, and other whelks.
Each chapter in the book blends lucid, factual explanation of complex subjects with engaging chronicles of the author’s travels to far-flung parts of the globe. Human activity is altering the ocean in every way, from temperature to salinity, from acidity to circulation. “ Each of these changes not only drastically affects the marine world, but more alarming has dire consequences for all life on earth”. (p.6) She convincingly makes the case that the oceans are an integral part of the climate change dilemma and need to be addressed along with changes in the atmosphere before a climate tipping point is reached. Clear and easy read of the current state of our Oceans.
Uplands are exposed to a heavy mist, the flora is more luxuriant. The climate and temperature of the waters surrounding the islands are modified by the cold Humboldt Current from the Antarctic. The Galapagos group are noted for its fauna and numerous animals found only in the archipelago and different subspecies on separate islands. The archipelago has six unique species of Giant Tortoise (Span. Galapagos-the island name) .Reptiles on the island, include two species of large lizards from the Iguana family and an unusual marine lizard that dives into the ocean for seaweed.
