How does octopus mate

This chemical also helps prevent the larger male from being likely to eat the female – a common occurrence with octopi which is one reason smaller octopi often run from larger when seen. Once accepted the male transfer’s sperm packages called spermatophores using a special structure called a hectocotylus on the third right arm. The female stores the sperm for later use and after the male has left will locate a den which she will seal off and prepare to lay eggs. Laying eggs one at a time and fertilizing each as it is produced the female will lay about 200 eggs into a string which she then glues to the roof of the den.

Life history - Octopus and squid. How octopus mate The third arm of many male octopus species is specially modified for transferring packets of sperm (spermatophores) to the female.

Life history - Octopus and squid

During mating the male inserts his modified arm into the female’s mantle. Sperm packets are released through his funnel into a groove on his modified arm, from where they are guided to the female’s reproductive organs. Some open-ocean octopus have a unique form of reproduction. This is true of the paper nautilus (these are not true nautilus, but a species of octopus named because their shell appears similar to that of a Nautiloid). How squid mate One or more arms of many squid species is modified for reproduction, transferring a sperm packet to females in a similar way to octopus. Egg development Most octopus species deposit eggs directly onto the sea floor, but some open-ocean species brood their eggs in their mantle or around their mouth. Squid rings The majority of squid and octopus hatch as miniature adults. Growth. Reptile Rescue's Asian Water Monitor Care Tips.

They’re imported indiscriminately, with thousands sold each year. They grow quickly from charmer to liability, and outgrow any habitat smaller than a room. They are monitors (Varanus niloticus). monitors’ place in herpetoculture should be at the pinnacle, in the capable hands of experienced, responsible and dedicated keepers. Monitor in the pet shop tank is deceptive, for prospective owners cannot conceive of its incredibly rapid growth.

Monitors. Unification, spacetime foam, quantum vacuum, quantum fluctuations. Physics of the early Universe is at the boundary of astronomy and philosophy since we do not currently have a complete theory that unifies all the fundamental forces of Nature at the moment of Creation.

In addition, there is no possibility of linking observation or experimentation of early Universe physics to our theories (i.e. it's not possible to `build' another Universe). Our theories are rejected or accepted based on simplicity and aesthetic grounds, plus their power of prediction to later times, rather than an appeal to empirical results.

This is a very difference way of doing science from previous centuries of research. Our physics can explain most of the evolution of the Universe after the Planck time (approximately 10-43 seconds after the Big Bang). Another way of seeing this problem is trying to reproduce the Greek philosophers thinking about matter, as applied to spacetime.

It's almost over, right? Um, no, sorry. I still have no time estimate, or specific date I am shooting for. 4/13 would be the COOLEST date to shoot for, right? I doubt that's realistic though. What is the status, then? Homestuck probably needs another month of writing before I can start making panels. Kickstarter - Speaking of the game, I sent out a backer update just before the newd year. One question I feel like I should answer out in the open even though I kinda thought it was obvious (there is no such thing as obvious) since I see it come up so much: yes, you will be able to purchase the game, even if you did not back the Kickstarter!

Contest - In the near future, I'm going to be putting out some neat things through We Love Fine. But before they formally launch any Homestuck stuff, they're running a fun shirt design contest.

Mind-Blowing Dancing by Marquese “NONSTOP” Scott

I don’t think I’ve seen dancing this incredible hit the internet since clips of David Elsewhere started circulating about a decade ago. This guy achieves simply inhuman movement. Even after watching this twice, I still can’t convince myself the camera isn’t playing tricks. Who is this guy!? (via stellar) Update: The dancer is 29-year-old Marquese Scott who goes by the moniker NONSTOP. Flight of the Bumblebee on 101 Bottles!
