It’s still the best way of identifying animals and human bodies thank you very much. This is why 1/10 conspiratorial privacy advocates advise against going to the dentist. That’s Gary. He’s kookoo for cocoapuffs and also has really bad teeth.
Teeth can tell you a lot about an animal. Their size, shape, number etc can tell you what it eats or how it eats or how much it eats. Dental formula can give you clues for how animals are related to each other. If two different animals have the same dental formula then maybe they share a common ancestor or have a similar diet. If two animals are already very similar but have different dental formula then maybe they’re only very distantly related or there’s been some convergent evolution elsewhere.
IIRC the change in temperature inhibits the production of chlorophyll (green), which means we see the other pigments which are yellow, orange, red. I remember the yellow/orange are carotenoids but can’t remember red.
Well, usually when you colonize, you destroy the native tongue and culture, to better assimilate them into your own. Spread the word of the good lord and all that. But I guess you can colonize mars, so I guess it’s not a requirement. My mistake. I wouldn’t say we’re colonizing orcas, though.
Was thinking something similar. What if the whales just don’t like the sailors’ taste in heavy metal? Have we tried passing the aux to the whales? This could be a valuable learning experience.
Killer Whales and humans have a long history of friendship and cooperative hunting. The orcas would lead people to large balleen whales, and the humans would spear them, taking most of the meat, but leaving the lips and tongue as payment to the Orcas.
