Ecology

-
The field that entertained me this semester was ecology, although it is on a rather difficult schedule since before ecology there are five hours of cell bases, this field basically explains how life is related to the environment, whether in an animal in particular, in a herd, in a group of different species or in a studied region. They teach us the types of interactions that the biotic and abiotic components that make up a system have, and also how these influence environmental factors, be it temperature, pH, types of soils, climate, etc. Thanks to this discipline, different factors can be projected, such as what affects the introduction of a species, how much carrying capacity an environment has, what type of animal could live there, etc. The teacher in charge of this field is Ms. Audrey Grez and the assistant teacher is Hugo Díaz, they are two teachers who explain in a super effective and entertaining way, I have no complaints about them and they made the subject well received by the...

Videos that look fake

This video and all those of hunting animals impress me, since the patience, stealth and audacity they have to capture their prey is incredible. I think that the leopard puts all its chips at this time, because if it does not manage to capture the prey, perhaps in how many days or weeks it will not eat.   This is a clear example that sometimes what you think is the opposite of reality, the truth is that otters are very territorial and aggressive animals, in this video you can clearly see how two families of otters fight for territory. Believe it or not, the elephant shrew is a mammal, and this video shows how it normally hunts insects, and also how it can escape with great agility from its predators. It is a super strange and intelligent animal.

The object that can change my mood

I don't have a favorite object, but the one that I find most versatile, useful and wonderful is the bicycle. I know that it is an object that many people have in the world, it is not unique, but I think it is a amazing means of transport.  Many use it as a method of transport, but for me it is far from being just that, it is a sport, and they are simply 2 wheels that take you out of the ordinary, feel like the air, water and land are with you while you ride, it is environmentally friendly, and it is not something that involves a lot of money.  All my life I have ridden a bicycle, since I was little my parents bought me one, then when I was older, I built one of my own. It was a BMX style bike, and I bought each piece separately, I had this bike for about 3 years. After that I was unlucky because I had several bikes and they were all stolen. I recently got back on a mountain bike, and played downhill and MTB sports.  The bike allows me to get landscapes like this that are ...

My favorite Animal.

Today we are going to talk about our favorite animal. The truth is that I do not have a favorite animal, but one of the ones that most attracts my attention is the "Slow Loris" or "Nycticebus", they are a genus of primates that live in South and Southeast Asia, mainly in jungles. These primates do not exceed 2kg in weight, they have a round head and long limbs, but without a doubt what most characterizes these animals are their huge and beautiful sparkling eyes. It has a very unusual characteristic for being a mammal, it has a poisonous toxin that is secreted by a gland in its arm, it licks that gland and by biting its predator it can introduce its venom. They are omnivorous animals, they eat mainly insects, but they can also eat fruits. The main problem of these animals is the illegal trade, like many other animals in the Asian continent, being such a striking animal they occupy it so that tourists can take pictures with it. So that the "Slow Loris" is ca...

  Hello everybody, today we are going to talk about 4 conflicting issues, I hope you can respond and debate my opinion to learn more. 1.- Exotic pets: I think that having an exotic pet at home is completely inappropriate, since the whole process to get these pets before they arrive at our house involves destroying their habitats in search of them, there have also been many cases of accidents or deaths from pets such as a python. 2.- legalization of abortion in the 3 cases: I think that legal abortion under the 3 causes is an excellent measure, but I would not know how to comment on abortion in other cases, I am concerned that Chile has a poor sexual education, and these laws may generate growth in STDs. 3.- Animal testing: I think that animal testing is stupid for aesthetic and cleaning purposes, but if we put ourselves in medical cases, to test a vaccine that is very necessary, or a process that greatly helps humanity, we should think about it more, there morality comes into ...
