In the serious, the great white shark goes around barbarically murdering people that go into the ocean. Ever since the films were released, they have struck terror upon the public viewers. People only seem to think...

...When hunting, they swim slowly and lack aggression. This species likes to prey on bony fish, sea snakes, sea birds, octopus, jellyfish, crustaceans, garbage and other sharks. Their nickname is the wastebasket of the sea. My favourite shark is the bull shark, which get their name from how they head-butt their prey. Some scientists consider bull sharks to be the most dangerous of its species, but worldwide it is known as the third. Bull sharks are common sharks as they live in high-populated areas, are unpredictable and aggressive. You will find them in shallow, warm ocean waters. You can even find them a little over two thousand miles up the Amazon River! However, you won’t find them near the water surface. They like to stay near reefs....

...Marine Life And My Love Of Sharks My tribute speech today is based on the study of, and appreciation of marine life. Especially sharks, and the misconception of them being human killers, a threat to swimmers, or notorious biters. There are many species of sharks, in fact, over one hundred and twenty known species. To Name A Few, the Great White, or known by it’s latin name Carcharodon Carcharias, the Tiger shark, the Pacific Epaulette walking shark, the Bull shark, and of course who can forget the Great Hammer Head. Still, with many more to be discovered, and studied. A lot of foreign fisheries overfish...

...Bloodthirsty, ruthless, killer: shark. For years people have feared and slaughtered sharks because of the bad rap they have received from Hollywood, but these beliefs are not justified. Sharks are not vicious and are actually quite gentle. Of the more than 388 species of sharks only two (the Great White and the Tiger) have been known to attack man and then only because of mistaken identity. Wetsuits and surfboards used by surfers are mistaken by sharks as the thick, rubbery, skin of seals, which are their main diet. Once the shark bites the surfer, it almost immediately lets go because it does not taste like its favorite meal. Not all big sharks have huge jaws full of teeth, as many people believe. Whale sharks, the largest fish in the world, are the most affable creatures you will encounter in our world's oceans. These sharks (that can weigh over three thousand pounds and grow up to five stories in length) have no teeth at all. Instead they have a mouth full of baleen that they use to filter plankton and tiny fish out the hundreds of gallons of sea water that passes through their monstrous mouths at one time. These peaceful giants have been known to let divers ride on their backs and don't show any aggression when approached. People should treat sharks with respect, as they should all earth's creatures. The only way for future generations to learn to appreciate these magnificent creatures (instead of fear them) is through education. This can be accomplished through...

... Goka are the females, goku are the males. I’m a five star goka. Let me tell you more about me. I’m fifteen years old. I have light blue hair and white eyes. I’m a sophomore. Us gokas are forced to use skirts. I’m not much of a skirts fan. It’s January the first. Our school is hosting a new years day festival. I run out of my apartment. It’s already 6:45. I’m a performer in the festival and the president of the whole sophomore student body. I’m supposed to be at school by 7. I am running right now. I hear my cell phone ringing. I call you up when I know he’s at home, I jump out of my skin when he picks up the phone, how can I tell if he’s looking at me, should I give him a smile, should I get up and leave. This song is the beginning of ‘best friends brother’ by Victoria Justice. I take out my phone from my pocket. I love sharks and dolphins so I have a great white shark picture on my iphone. “Hello?” I say. “Hey! It’s me, Alice.” “Hey Alice! I know I’m late. I’m running to the school now!” “Well hurry! All the school’s officers are here besides you and Beck!” I see the school and run to the front doors. “I’m at the school. Open the door for me please!?” “K, S.U.I” “K.” I hang up. If you’re wondering what S.U.I. means, it means See You Inside. Alice then opens the door. Alice is the sophomore vice president. She has white hair and ruby red eyes. I would describe her as very nice and very smart. She always wants to help others. “Hey again Alice.” “Let’s go. We have...

...Finding Nemo??? I remember the time that I found him. He was still in the egg and my wife was no where to be found. Earlier in the day we swam down to the plethora of kids we were going to have and were deciding on what to name them. Coral my wife wanted at least one of the kids name to be Nemo. I preferred to keep it simple and wanted to name half of the kids Marlin Jr. and the other half Coral Jr. after both of our names. I really didn’t care at the time and in the back of my mind I liked the name Nemo. Well that evening we were outside our anemone. We just bought the house and we needed a place to raise the kids we were going to happen. We saw a huge fish on the horizon and it seemed hungry from my eyes and I never liked big fish being a little clownfish. I told Coral to get into the house but she didn’t listen she charged for the eggs and the fish did the same. I tried to protect her but the fish knocked me into a big rock and I blacked out. I woke up sometime later in the same position I was in. I was dazed and confused but I recollected my thoughts and got up. I went searching for my wife and the kids but no matter where I looked I couldn’t find them. Then out of the corner of my eye I saw something. It was one of my eggs from earlier. I swam over and picked it up in my fins. I was happy at least there was one of them left so I wasn’t alone. I have had issues in the past with depression and loneliness. So I often made friends since a young age. Without...

...childhood memory, your wedding day or even a movie. Composers are known for having this ability to pull on the emotions and change the mood of their audience. One of the most underrated aspects for music is how filmmakers use these ablilities when choosing music for their movies. The role of music in a motion picture is in direct relation to the level of ambiguity in a particular scene. The more ambiguous a scene is, the more filmmakers rely on the music to develop a mood that interprets the meaning of the scene for their audience. Therefore, music provides a cue for the listener to tell whether the narrative is suppose to be perceived as scary, romantic, funny, sad, or happy--ultimately, affecting the audience's mood. Horror movies are great examples of that concept. Hitchcock's Psycho (1960), is a perfect example of how a music can tell its audience what's about to come. The most memorable scene in the film was the brutal shower stabbing scene with Janet Leigh. The use of music in this scene allows the viewer to achieve a fear of the unknown. As Leigh is showering, the camera view point is of Bates walking into her room. Then, the music gets eerie and scary. The audience can feel something is about to happen to Leigh's character because of the taunting music. The music’s tempo increases as Bates gets closer to the shower. When Bates stabs her to death, one of the most famous sounds in horror film history is born. The famous "eeeh, eeeh, eeeh" is played with each stab sounding...

...Sharks should be culled. For The population of sharks is booming at the moment making it very dangerous for us as beach goers. We can do reduce this risk dramatically just by reducing the population of sharks. This is way of reducing the sharks population is called “culling”. If we cull some of these sharks it will be much for fish species to grow. It will also mean that us beach goers will be a lot safer. The shark population is growing crazily each minute. Some shark species can have over 100 shark pups at one time. This means if 10 sharks give birth to this pups, there will be another 100 realised into the ocean. With all these sharks released into the ocean there is a very uneven balance between these apex predators and other species...

...the release of ink when startled, this serves them as a way to escape from their predators (Wollenberg, 2012). This cautiousness and stealthy class of squids can conceal from the view of predators and pray by burying its body in the sand. The Hawaiian bobtail squid also changes color when needed by contracting or expanding distinctive pigment containing and light reflecting cells known as chromatophores that are found in its skin (Sceleicher, 2011). The bioluminescence of Aliivibrio fischeri The evolution of bioluminescence has evolved separately in a variety of forms and the regulation of it differs among the expressing organisms (Schleicher, 2011). The production and discharge of light is the ultimate product of an exergonic reaction (White, E. H., et. al., 1971). Forming part of the family Vibrionaceae, the gram-negative bacterium Aliivibrio fischeri is a bioluminescence marine bacterium that contains a variety of species each involving in mutual assistance and interaction with a host organism (Wollenberg, 2012). A. fischeri exist throughout the world in a variety of climates, but they are specifically found in subtropical regions. When the oxidative enzyme luciferase is catalyzed, bioluminescence in A. fischeri occurs. Symbiotic relationship between E. scolopes and A. fischeri There is a symbiotic relationship between the Hawaiian Bobtail squid and the bioluminescence bacteria in which both organisms benefit from each other (Nardon, 1991). The bacterium gets a place to...

...The culling of sharks is not the only way to ensure that the ocean is safe. Sharks have populated the earth for over four hundred million years and now, people want to remove them from our oceans because they are perceived as a threat [Williamson, 2015]. By pushing the introduction of shark culls, allowing people to freely kill sharks in an appalling manner, the lives of many shark species are threatened. Most people know little to nothing about sharks, despite what is depicted in the media. Sharks are vital when it comes to maintaining the ocean ecosystem and maintaining the ocean life that human kind continuously abuse. Sharks are labelled as menacing, bloodthirsty creatures that main instinct is to kill. But with these horrific words being...

...Bottlenose dolphins, the genus Tursiops, are the most common and well-known members of the family Delphinidae, the family of oceanic dolphin.[1] Recent molecular studies show the genus contains two species, the common bottlenose dolphin (Tursiops truncatus) and the Indo-Pacific bottlenose dolphin (Tursiops aduncus), instead of one. Research in 2011 revealed a third species, the Burrunan dolphin (Tursiops australis). They inhabit warm and temperate seas worldwide. Bottlenose dolphins live in groups typically of 10–30 members, called pods, but group size varies from single individuals up to more than 1,000. Their diets consist mainly of forage fish. Dolphins often work as a team to harvest fish schools, but they also hunt individually. Dolphins search for prey primarily using echolocation, which is similar to sonar. They emit clicking sounds and listen for the return echos to determine the location and shape of nearby items, including potential prey. Bottlenose dolphins also use sound for communication, including squeaks and whistles emitted from the blowhole and sounds emitted through body language, such as leaping from the water and slapping their tails on the water surface. There have been numerous investigations of bottlenose dolphin intelligence. Research on bottlenose dolphins has examined mimicry, use of artificial language, object categorization, and self-recognition. They can use tools (sponging) and transmit cultural knowledge across generations,[2] and their considerable...
