How do green sea turtles navigate while swimming?
There are three main concepts to be considered. The concepts include electromagnetic induction, magnetic field
1. Electromagnetic induction: It is assumed that the sea turtles have electroreceptors. Although evidence has been found in other species such as rays and sharks, no evidence has shown that there are electroreceptors in sea turtles making this hypothesis invalid.
2. Magnetic field chemical reaction: Chemical reactions which is
commonly found in a variety of species of newts and birds. The
strength of the magnetic field affects the chemical reactions
within the bodies of the newts and birds. Again, there is no
supportive data for turtle.
3. Magnetite: It says, the magnetic crystals that form during the
magnetic pulses from the earth's magnetic fields give the turtles
directional information and guides in migration. The magnetite
affects the cells of the nervous system of the sea turtle by
producing a signal that references the forces of the magnetic field
and the direction and magnitude that is applied. If this magnetite
is used in the migration, when the earth's magnetic poles reverse
at the dipole moment, the signal that the sea turtle nervous system
receives will change the migration direction. Regardless of the
hypothesis, hatchling turtles have the ability to determine the
direction and inclination angle of which they are swimming with
aide from magnetic fields.
To protect the endangered species, some leatherback sea turtles are introduced into a protected ecosystem. The following function models the population of leatherback sea turtles, P as a function of the time, t in years, since they are introduced in the protected ecosystem P(t)=50+16t/2+0.1t https://i.gyazo.com/6e841f27ba9baa591cedde57db932a8f.png a.

Question 13 (10 marks) Scientists observed populations of sea turtles on two islands: Turtle Island (TI) and Lizard Island (LI). The first year of observation, they noted that 700 turtles lived on Turtle Island and 200 turtles lived on Lizard Island. Let x;, zyi denote the numbers of turtles (in hundreds) on Turtle Island and Lizard Island after i years. Write this information as - F the vector po = |Y0 The scientists returned the following year and made the...

(a) Find the probability that a randomly selected green sea urchin weighs more than 45 (b) Find the probability that a randomly selected green sea urchin weighs between 50 and grams 60 grams (c) 10% of green sea urchins weigh more than how many grams?
Water in abandoned swimming pools often turns green. If examined a drop of this water with a microscope, how could you tell whether the water contains protists and, if so, which group they might belong to?
