The classification of Hibiscus. Its kingdom is Plantae, its division is Traceophyta , the class is magnoliopsida, its order is Malves, its family is malvaceae, and lastly its genus is hibiscus. Moreover, the hibiscus is closely related to many plants. Some being: hollyhocks, mallows, and lastly an okra.

Name

jnrodseth — 2024-06-03 07:53:31 UTC

The living organism I chose is called a Tardigrade. In Italian, it is called Tardigrada, Latin for “slow walker.” This refers to their short legs, as well as their inability to move quickly.

Classification

jnrodseth — 2024-06-03 07:55:32 UTC

The classification of a Tardigrade is Animalia (Kingdom), Tardigrada (Phylum), Eutardigrada (Class), Parachaela (Order), Hypsibiidae (Family), Hypsibius (Genus).

Anatomy appearance

2024-06-03 07:56:06 UTC

The Hibiscus, is a tropical flower. It usually grows around 2.54 centimetres tall. Furthermore the hibiscus has different shades of pink, red, yellow, orange, and two of the most rarest shades or multicoloured or blue. Moreover the hibiscus flower weight mostly around 85 grams. And lastly the hibiscus flower has Eukaryotic cells. And within that there are three other types of cells. Collenchyma, Parenchyma, and the sclerenchyma.

Anatomy Appearance

jnrodseth — 2024-06-03 07:59:04 UTC

Often, a Tardigrade is compared to a bear or a piglet due to its short legs and chubby appearance. Tardigrades are known to range from 0.3 to 0.5 mm in length. Tardigrades have round faces with two small eyes and a round mouth. Attached to the end of their feet are claws.

Diet

jnrodseth — 2024-06-03 08:00:41 UTC

A Tardigrade mainly consumes small plant cells, algae and tiny invertebrates. Tardigrades eat by piercing their teeth into the cell/invertebrate and sucking out its contents. Tardigrades are regularly herbivorous but may even eat others in their species.

Diet

2024-06-03 08:00:48 UTC

Many different plants preform photosynthesis, including the Hibiscus. Photosynthesis is the process where the plant (Hibiscus) uses sun light, water, as well as carbon dioxide to make oxygen and energy in the form of sugar. To sum it up, photosynthesis converts solar/light energy into chemical energy. This is important to have enough energy for their activities, such as breathing and sexual reproduction.

Habitat and range

2024-06-03 08:03:51 UTC

The habitat for a Hibiscus is a well drained fertile and moist soil. For example the hibiscus loves living in countries such as: China, Japan, and the Pacific Islands. Additionally Hibiscus flowers prefer warm and sunny places, ideally where there is no wind.

Habitat/Range

jnrodseth — 2024-06-03 08:04:40 UTC

Tardigrades live everywhere on Earth but mostly in water since without it, they go into their “tun” state. Their “tun” state is called “cryptobiosis” by scientists and in this state they curl up into a dry ball and their metabolism slows down to a tiny fraction of the original state.

Life Cycle/Reproduction

jnrodseth — 2024-06-03 08:08:31 UTC

A Tardigrade’s life cycle goes from egg to juvenile to adult. During their life they molt up to 12 times and after their second or third molt, reach sexual maturity. Most Tardigrades are oviparous and fertilization occurs externally, however some Tardigrades are both male and female with sperm and egg. One species of Tardigrade reproduce using parthenogenesis since there are no males in the species. Tardigrades live all the way from 2 months to 3 years excluding the time they spend in their “tun” state.

Survival Status

jnrodseth — 2024-06-03 08:09:34 UTC

Tardigrades have endured all 5 max extinctions and even lived 400 million years before dinosaurs. It’s expected that they will outlive humans.

Life cycle / reproduction

2024-06-03 08:11:20 UTC

the life cycle of a hibiscus flower is: the flower undergoes meiosis to create small haploid cells. The haploid cell then grows from a unicellular haploid cell into a multicellular haploid which is named by scientists as a gametophyte. Lastly, the gametophyte then performs mitosis to produce gametes. Moreover the hibiscus flower uses cross-pollination to reproduce sexually. This happens when pollen from a male part of a flower reaches the female flower by either a bee or another insect. When the pods get mature they crack and release seeds then they fall to the ground to make new hibiscus plants.

Behavior

jnrodseth — 2024-06-03 08:11:51 UTC

.Tardigrades are solitary organisms.

.Tardigrades can survive in space, but still need water to reproduce.

.Tardigrades are the first animal to survive in the vacuum (no air).

.Tardigrades do not require any rest.

A lily can reproduce sexually and asexually. The asexual part is when the lily grows from a seed. Lilies can reproduce sexually when the male part of the flower, (stamen) makes pollen, and pollination happens. Pollination is when pollen goes to the female part (pistil). Then pollen goes to an ovule. The ovule becomes aeed and the cycle happens again.

Habitat / Range

2024-06-06 10:32:04 UTC

A spiny water flea lives in fresh water habitat and prefer cold temperatures. It’s mostly found in Europe and Asia.

Life span / reproduction

2024-06-06 10:33:22 UTC

The life span of a water flea is only two weeks!in the summer and spring reproduce by cloning ( asexual reproduction). In the fall and winter water fleas when the conditions are cold and there is no food they reproduce sexually and produce tough eggs that are resistant from drying and freezing. Females carry their eggs and young on their backs.

Life cycle reproduction

2024-06-06 10:33:40 UTC

White sharks reproduce through a process through a process called ovoviviparity. This means that the embryos develop inside the mother and are fed by a yolk sac until they are born as live , independent young sharks. The pregnancy lasts about 12 months after eternal fertilization . Great whites mature at about 29.5 years old. The maximum age is hard to determine and is somewhere between 30 to 70 years old. A great white is born at approximately 4 feet long and can grow up to 20 feet long

Diet

2024-06-06 10:33:50 UTC

Their main prey species include sea urchins, crabs, clams, mussels, octopus, fish and pother marine invertebrates. An interesting fact is that is that the sea otters teeth are adapted for crushing hard-shelled creatures such as clams, urchins and grabs. To find food, sea otters may occasionally dive as deep 250 feet and will use their sensitive whiskers to find and locate smalls prey inside cervices or their strong forepaws to dig into their enemy.

Diet

2024-06-06 10:33:57 UTC

The spiny water flea eats smaller plankton organisms. They are mostly zooplankton, including Daphnia and other smaller crustaceans. They can consume up to 10-20 organisms per day! They also eat other small organisms they come across.

Extinction

2024-06-06 10:34:15 UTC

The spiny water flea s in danger of extinction because of lack of food. They die because of lack of food especially in the fall and spring.

Survival status

2024-06-06 10:37:13 UTC

The great white sharks are listed on the IUCN red list as vounrable and are expected to go extinct in about a century with less than 3,500 left

Life cycle

sfragiac — 2024-06-06 10:37:43 UTC

Like all reptiles the saw scaled viper lays eggs then the egg hatches and the baby viper climbs out and grows to a young snake then it grows into an adult snake then it lays eggs or it dies.

Habitat and Range

marianna129 — 2024-06-06 10:39:15 UTC

They mostly live in rocky reefs, seaweed beds, sea grass meadows and on sand patches near weed covered reefs, in the deep sea.This species has only been recorded from the southern coastline of Australia from Jurien Bay Marine to Wilsons Promontory in Victoria.

Type of reproduction

sfragiac — 2024-06-06 10:41:50 UTC

Saw scaled vipers have sexual reproduction meaning that 2 parents are needed to make a baby viper.

Habitat

emelnik2 — 2024-06-06 10:44:12 UTC

The sea otter lives in areas where it can dive for food in the Pacific Ocean, most often within one to to kilometers from shore where the water is no more than 40 meters deep.on rocky reefs and kept fosters are perfect for them to trap their pray inside and watch it slowly die, so they can eat it.

Status

sfragiac — 2024-06-06 10:44:38 UTC

The saw scaled viper is not threatend to be extinct however it kills alot of people.

Life Cycle/Reproduction

marianna129 — 2024-06-06 10:49:25 UTC

A Leafy Sea Dragon is in an egg for the first 7-8 weeks it reaches full size after 2 years.If it is a female it has about 100-250 eggs in its life time ( it reproduces sexually).It lives up to 10years.

Life cycle

emelnik2 — 2024-06-06 10:51:54 UTC

Most females have been observed to have the first pup by 3-4 years old. They eventually stop having pups at 5 years old. Depending on the gender the female lives for 15-20 years and the male for 10-15 years.

Name

2024-06-06 10:54:01 UTC

My animal is called blob-fish. The reason we call it a blob-fish is because it has a blob-like appearance. The name of a

blob-fish’s son is still blob-fish. The blob-fish is in the family of Psychrolutes marcidus.

Living Thing’s Survival Status

marianna129 — 2024-06-06 10:57:37 UTC

This animal is really healthy and reproduces a lot so it is not endangered.

Gulper eels are like pelicans! Their large mouth allows them to eat prey whole. Gulper eels mostly crustaceans, fish and cephalopods. Some scientists also think that their large mouth allows them to go after large prey.

Life cycle/Reproduction

2024-06-06 11:52:03 UTC

The blob-fish lays approximately 100,000 eggs and secures them until they hatch in a single nest in rocky areas, on top of deep ocean platforms with warmer water temperature. They turn into small invertebrates which after sometime grow into big invertebrates before reaching the final stage as a blob-fish. The blob-fish reproduces sexually by using a method known as external fertilisation. External fertilisation is when a male organism’s sperm fertilises a female organism’s egg outside of the females body. Blob-fish offspring is a exact replica of its parents.
