Its average length is between 6 and 7 feet (about 2 meters).
It has a large head and massive legs. Jaguars vary in color, but usually they are yellowish brown, with black spots like those of the leopard. The jaguar’s spots, however, are larger and more angular. The jaguar was once found from the southern United States to Uruguay, but now it is a species in danger of extinction and survives mainly in undeveloped rain forests in Central and South America. The largest known population exists in the Amazon rain forest. Although jaguars usually stalk or ambush their prey, which consists mostly of peccaries, they are excellent swimmers and sometimes take capybaras, tapirs, crocodiles, and fish.
TIGER SHARK Sometimes called Leopard shark cause of his markings. This Texas species is known to be a man-eater. They are the largest species of shark to inhabit Texas waters they are the most dangerous. The markings that they derive their name from are more pronounced on the younger ones and fade out the older the shark gets. This massive 1,500-pound animal eats just about anything he wants too. This includes just about everything though from stingrays, squid, fish, smaller sharks, seagulls, and even humans! EARTHWORM The earthworm has a cylindrically shaped, segmented body that tapers off at both ends.
The Essay on Classification Of Species
Procedure: To start the experiment with exercise 1, I gathered all of the needed supplies, both from around my house and from the lab paq CD. I then began exercise one by printing the images in Figure 5 from my labpaq. I then proceeded to cut out each shark. Next I carefully examined the drawing of shark specimen 1. After examining the shark I went to the Key to the Classification of Sharks by ...
It has a well-developed digestive, circulatory, respiratory and nervous system. The size can range any where from a length of a few centimeters to a length of up to 11 feet. Earthworms can burrow under ground with considerable speed especially in loose soil. What is really interesting is the if you cut a worm in half it stays alive. RED WOOD The towering redwood is the tallest of all trees. During a lifetime of up to 2,000 years it may grow to nearly 400 feet (120 meters) high and more than 30 feet (9 meters) thick at the base. Its close relative, the big tree, or giant sequoia, is among the oldest of the forest trees–it may live for 3,000 years or more. It reaches heights of more than 250 feet (75 meters) and may have a trunk diameter of about 25 feet (8 meters).
killer whale A large, rapacious marine mammal. Male killer whales may reach a length of 30 ft (9 m) and females half that length. The killer whale is black above, with a sharply contrasting white oval patch around each eye; its belly is white with white markings projecting up along the animals sides. It has a high, triangular dorsal fin midway between head and tail, and broad, paddle-shaped flippers. It is a swift and ferocious animal, armed with more than four-dozen sharp teeth, and is the only cetacean that feeds regularly on birds or mammals. Killer whales eat seals, sea birds, and fish, and in packs they will even attack larger whales.
The female gives birth to a single calf, up to 7 ft (2.1 m) long, following a gestation period of approximately one year. Females mature in 6 to 7 years, males in 12..
