The monarch butterfly is one of the most familiar species, and is considered important because of its pollinating skills. This species is most recognizable for is black, orange, and white wings. The monarch butterflies wings change colors from orange to a deep red, from beginning to the end of migration. This butterfly population has been decreasing over the last ten years, and are predicted to be quasi-extinct over the next 20 years. These butterflies keep warm by opening their wings up to the sun. Males have a different appearance than the female butterflies such as they are much bigger in size, and the black veins on their wings are narrower than those of a female. The monarch butterfly has six legs, but only uses four. They use their middle
Introduction: My kindergarten learners are very diverse. It is comprised of twenty-one 5 and 6 year old students. There are 11 boys and 10 girls. In my class, there are children with ADHD, severe learning disabilities, multiple ESL learners, Cerebral Palsy, Severe Behavior, and other assortment of needs.
10: The life cycle of the organism: The life cycle of the Kamehameha butterfly is the females lay their eggs on the mamaki leaves. After it becomes a caterpillar it feeds on the mamaki leaves before pupating and transforming into a butterfly.
In the book “ In the Time of the Butterflies,” the author describes the lives of four revolutionary sisters in the Dominican Republic. These sisters were Dede, Patria, Maria Teresa, and Minerva Mirabal. Minerva was the one who stood out the most to me. The passion she had and showed made her sound like a sacrificial leader. Minerva was the type to stand up for what she believed in. Rafael Trujillo was the leader of the Dominican Republic, whatever he say or want to be changed it changes. He was a brutal dictator. Minerva showed him that she is brave and strong. In the book she stated “ I was the one always standing up to him”. When she needed his help she buttered him up into making a deal with her. The Mirabal sisters will always be a
While I certainly do not consider myself one who is particularly concerned with the environment, I do enjoy God’s creation and find that making my little corner of the world friendly for a wide variety of flora, fauna, and animal life brings an amount of satisfaction to me. Therefore, my three goals tie into things that are already important to me.
The Monarch Butterfly is a milkweed butterfly in the family Nymphalidae. It’s the most common butterfly in North America , and is considered an “iconic pollinator species”.(Conserving Monarch butterflies And their habitats).The Monarch Butterflies have many nicknames such as, “milkweed, common tiger, wanderer and black veined brown”(Danaus).
“As Americans, we want peace -- we work and sacrifice for peace. But there can be no peace if our security depends on the will and whims of a ruthless and aggressive dictator. I'm not willing to stake one American life on trusting Saddam Hussein.” -George W. Bush. President Bush promised America that he would bring down Saddam Hussein no matter what it took. But why? Why would the president make such an imposing promise? In order to ensure the safety of his people (the Americans) such terrorists must be brought down. President Bush was willing to sacrifice the lives of many heroic soldiers to halt terrorism from afflicting this country. Are the lives of these young brave soldiers worth the sacrifice that is needed to bring change into the
The pair of crowned eagles uses the same nest for a long time, until two new eagles inherit it. Their nest is made of sticks and twigs and lined with fresh branches. The eagles add new branches to the nest each year, and over time the nest can grow up to 7 feet across and 9 feet deep. It typically rests in about a 100 foot-tall tree. The female crowned eagle lays one or two eggs, which are white and speckled with a red-brown color. She incubates the eggs for about the next 50 days while her mate brings her food every 3 or 4 days. Sometimes they switch roles, the male incubating and the female hunting. When the chick (or chicks) hatches, it is covered in down feathers. the sad part is If there are two chicks, the stronger kills the weaker
Depending on the time of year and temperatures determines how many species will be active in the wing. Currently, the thriving butterfly wing holds 1,230 butterflies representing 77 species. The 2,500 foot conservatory was made to improve the lives of butterflies, as well as inspire guests by roughly resembling a butterfly in flight. Christina Reiman Butterfly Wing encourages visitors to unplug, share appreciation, and further knowledge of the natural world inside the enchanting home of butterflies. Inside the the clear-glass tropical oasis, is a live viewing for guests to see the butterflies hatching and emerging from the chrysalis. Beyond the learning center of the early-life of a butterfly, is the beautiful antechamber filled with tropical nectar plants and the large collection of butterflies, encouraging guests to take advantage of the exploration
What moves us to inquire about the world we live in; what inspires us to change, and how do we grow intellectually? Knowledge is an accumulation of experiences, which are obtained either conventionally in a school setting, or indiscriminately through life-experiences. Likewise, from these experiences conventional or otherwise, information is then transferred, acquired, and reappropriated. However, within this sequence of events knowledge is at risk of misinterpretation. In those circumstances it is the story, the most ancient forms of communication that is capable of making the unfamiliar appear obvious. Through her story Flight Behaviour, Barbara Kingsolver acts as a teacher, surreptitiously conveying her own opinions on education and the process of learning through the development of her characters. Subsequently, Kingsolver provides a valuable outlook regarding the elements required to engage intellectually; and furthermore her outlook offers creditable insight regarding the process of learning. Not merely an anecdotal novel, Kingsolver conveys a fundamental educational paradigm through her narrative. Indeed, engaging intellectually requires both aptitude and enthusiasm, but Kingsolver proposes that education is far more complex than a simple binary. Kingsolver suggests that intellectual engagement is both a process and a maturation of one's ability to reason, which is fundamentally rooted in logic and passion.
Based on the decline of the Karner blue across its historic range, it was listed as endangered in 1992. Since listing, two populations have been extirpated and are being reintroduced to Concord, New Hampshire, and West Gary, Indiana. A third population is being reintroduced to Ohio. The threat of the Karner blue butterfly extinction exists primarily from the loss of critical habitat caused by landscape fragmentation, natural succession and concomitant suppression of the natural disturbance regime (Smallidge 1996; Clough 1992).
Experiment: The butterflies will be left from each group separately behind identical predators (i.e. yellowhammers and great tits on both groups). Afterward, the number of butterflies left in each group will be counted, which determines how efficient the butterflies of each group are in defending

Scientist observed the, Limacina helicina, planktonic sea butterfly in slow motion. As they did they discovered its unique features that resemble the combination of a snail and a butterfly. The scientist said, “Its insect-like acrobatics are "a remarkable example of convergent evolution", the researchers write. In other words, the same trait has evolved more than once in completely independent lineages.” It has a snail shell and two floppy wings that move in a figure eight pattern. The snail is made of gelatinous except for the shell. The snail usually has feet where these plankton’s wings are. It also uses it wings to scare of predators by putting them together so they look larger. The wings allow them the ability to move around quickly.
Butterfly's tongue is a film, which is interpret explanations of language and sense of the characters in the movie . Also brings his story: a master of Republican ideas in a very small town with minded people saw, on the principles of what would become the tragic Spanish Civil War. The film screened, as many other films, this special relationship between an adult and an innocent child. Don Gregorio old master, and his student, Moncho the child likes to learn and discover new things. The master, with its good teachings and crafts, strives to enter a world of teaching which contributes its experiences as a teacher and his ideals of Republican politics.
