Squid
True squid are molluscs with an elongated soft body, large eyes, eight arms, and two tentacles in the superorder Decapodiformes, though many other molluscs within the broader Neocoleoidea are also called squid despite not strictly fitting these criteria. Like all other cephalopods, squid have a distinct head, bilateral symmetry, and a mantle. They are mainly soft-bodied, like octopuses, but have a small internal skeleton in the form of a rod-like gladius (cephalopod), gladius or pen, made of chitin. Squid diverged from other cephalopods during the Jurassic and occupy a similar role to teleost fish as open water predators of similar size and behaviour. They play an important role in the open water food web. The two long tentacles are used to grab prey and the eight arms to hold and control it. The beak then cuts the food into suitable size chunks for swallowing. Squid are rapid swimmers, moving by Aquatic locomotion#Jet propulsion, jet propulsion, and largely locate their ...

People From Butler, New Jersey
A person ( : people) is a being that has certain capacities or attributes such as reason, morality, consciousness or self-consciousness, and being a part of a culturally established form of social relations such as kinship, ownership of property, or legal responsibility. The defining features of personhood and, consequently, what makes a person count as a person, differ widely among cultures and contexts. In addition to the question of personhood, of what makes a being count as a person to begin with, there are further questions about personal identity and self: both about what makes any particular person that particular person instead of another, and about what makes a person at one time the same person as they were or will be at another time despite any intervening changes. The plural form "people" is often used to refer to an entire nation or ethnic group (as in "a people"), and this was the original meaning of the word; it subsequently acquired its use as a plural form of per ...

Australiteuthis Aldrichi
''A. aldrichi'' is a small species of squid found in northern Australian waters. The species was described by Chung Cheng Lu in 2005 based on specimens collected in the inshore waters of Northern Australia. The largest known individual of this species is a mature female measuring in mantle length (ML). The holotype is a mature male of ML. A live specimen of ''A. aldrichi'' has yet to be recorded. ''A. aldrichi'' is a member of the class Cephalopoda and part of the subclass Coleodia. Within this class there are two orders, the Myopsida and Oegopsida, which both fall under the superorder Decapodiformes. ''A. aldrichi'' falls under the order of Myospida, and is the only member of its genus, ''Australiteuthis,'' and family, Australiteuthidae. Order The Myopsida order is made up of two families, the ''Australiteuthidae'' and ''Loliginidae.'' The squid which fall under the order of Myopsida are nertic squid that typically dwell in shallow waters and appear in large schools. Within ...

Logy Bay
Logy Bay-Middle Cove-Outer Cove is a town in the Canadian province of Newfoundland and Labrador.

History The area encompassing Logy Bay-Middle Cove-Outer Cove is within the boundaries of lands granted to the London and Bristol Company in 1610. In 1627, the company experienced financial difficulties and evidently made lands available to private groups. The name ''Logy Bay'' itself first appears on Southwood's map of = 1675, however, permanent settlement did not begin until the early 19th century. The earliest record of settlement in Logy Bay is from 1818 when Luke Ryan, a fisherman, sought permission to build fishing room The earliest records of settlement in Outer Cove and Middle Cove appear around 1827, but occupation here most likely predated this year. The early settlers of Logy Bay-Middle Cove-Outer Cove were immigrants predominan ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
