GAME MANIA

Jika di Malaysia orang-orang kampung yang tinggal berdekatan sawah akan menangkap ikan menggunakan alat khas yang dipanggil sebagai bubu.  Kemeriahan musim menangkap ikan sawah tidak dapat disangkal lagi kerana kadang-kadang ianya menjadi satu pesta kepada orang-orang kampung.  Kini, jika di negeri Kedah teknik menangkap ikan sawah turut diperkenalkan kepada kepada para pelancong luar. Paparan berikut adalah mengenai ritual pelik masyarakat orang Asli Afrika ketika menangkap ikan.  Jom ikuti kisahnya… Sekali setahun perairan suci Tasik Antogo di Mali dibuka kepada para nelayan. Ribuan nelayan berbaris  di sekeliling tasik tersebut.  Ketika itu, ribuan nelayan akan  beratur untuk menangkap ikan di Tasik Antogo di Mali. Meriah… sedia untuk memulakan acara menangkap ikan Sejurus selepas letupan dari pistol dibunyikan sebagai permulaan, mereka akan menyerbu secara tergesa-gesa untuk ke bahagian tengah tasik.  Seluruh tasik dipenuhi dengan para ...

ANATOMI IKAN ANATOMI DAN FISIOLOGI IKAN NILA HITAM Pencernaan secara fisik dan mekanik dimulai di bagian rongga mulut yaitu dengan berperannya gigi pada proses pemotongan dan penggerusan makanan. Pencernaan secara mekanik ini juga berlangsung di segmen lambung dan usus yaitu melalui gerakan-gerakan (kontraksi) otot pada segmen tersebut. Pencernaan secara mekanik di segmen lambung dan usus terjadi lebih efektif oleh karena adanya peran cairan digestif. Pada ikan, pencernaan secara kimiawi dimulai di bagian lambung, hal ini dikarenakan cairan digestif yang berperan dalam proses pencernaan secara kimiawi mulai dihasilkan di segmen tersebut yaitu disekresikan oleh kelenjar lambung. Pencernaan ini selanjutnya disempurnakan di segmen usus. Cairan digestif yang berperan pada proses pencernaan di segmen usus berasal dari hati, pankreas, dan dinding usus itu sendiri. Kombinasi antara aksi fisik dan kimiawi inilah yang menyebabkan perubahan makanan dari yang asalnya bersifat komplek...

       Organic vegetables at a farmers' market in Argentina Organic foods are foods that are produced using methods of organic farming – that do not involve modern synthetic inputs such as synthetic pesticides and chemical fertilizers . Organic foods are also not processed using irradiation , industrial solvents, or chemical food additives . [1] The organic farming movement arose in the 1940s in response to the industrialization of agriculture known as the Green Revolution . [2] Organic food production is a heavily regulated industry, distinct from private gardening . Currently, the European Union, the United States, Canada, Japan and many other countries require producers to obtain special certification in order to market food as organic within their borders. In the context of these regulations, organic food is food produced in a way that complies with organic standards set by national governments and international organizations. Evidence on substanti...

The discovery could someday lead to the development of new camouflage materials for use in the ocean, and it overturns 40 years of conventional wisdom about fish camouflage. The researchers found that lookdown fish camouflage themselves through a complex manipulation of polarized light after it strikes the fish skin . In laboratory studies, they showed that this kind of camouflage outperforms by up to 80 percent the "mirror" strategy that was previously thought to be state-of-the-art in fish camouflage. The study was published this week in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS). The research was funded by the ...

Photo: Esben Horn Scientists have found fossil evidence of the first animal to grow a set of pearly whites — a prehistoric fish that lived more than 380 million years ago. An international research team discovered teeth in several specimens of an ancient fish species, known as placoderms, a finding that likely represents the origins of teeth and jaws in animals. A full set of chompers has been key to the success of most top predators. One of the group's researchers, Kate Trinajstic, from Western Australia's Curtin University, said the development of teeth meant placoderms, which were covered in plates of bony armour, could become a top predator who ruled the oceans for more than 70 million years.
