and feet
- Porpoises and dolphins communicate with each other by squeaking, growling, moaning,
and whistling. Porpoises and dolphins are mammals. There are about 40 species or kinds
of porpoises and dolphins. Most porpoises and dolphins navigate by using "echolocation".
The largest member of the dolphin family is called an orca or killer whale.
- The hippopotamus gives birth under water and nurses its young in the river as well,

The world's largest mammal, the blue whale, weighs 50 tons at birth. Fully grown, it
weighs as much as 150 tons.
The world's largest rodent is the Capybara. An Amazon water hog that looks like a guinea
pig, it can weigh more than 100 pounds.

-- How the wind blows. As the sun warms the earth’s surface, the atmosphere warms too.
Some parts of the earth receive direct rays from the sun all year and are always warm.
Other places receive indirect rays, so the climate is colder. Warm air, which weighs less
than cool air, rises. Then cool air moves in and replaces the rising warm air. This
movement of air is what makes the wind blow.
--Why do we might feel warmer wearing a dark-colored jacket than a light-colored one? .
Dark colors absorb light energy. Light colors and white reflect light energy. When light
shines on your dark jacket, the jacket fabric absorbs light energy. The absorbed light
energy causes electrons in the atoms of the jacket to vibrate. This activity releases heat
energy, which makes the jacket—and you—warmer. That's why we like to wear more dark
colors in winter and more light colors in summer.
-While sleeping, one man in eight snores, and one in ten grinds his teeth.

companies make glues using synthetic substances.
-A cat sees about six times better than a human at night because of the tapetum lucidum , a layer of
extra reflecting cells which absorb light.
-A cat uses whiskers to determine if a space is too small to squeeze through. The whiskers act as
antennae, helping the animal to judge the precise width of any passage.

instinctive.

unless acted upon by some outside force? A ball will not move unless someone kicks it.
...the second law of motion deals with the mass (the amount of matter in an object) and
force (the action on an object)? A ball does not speed up or slow down all by itself
because it takes a force to move it or slow it down. How the ball moves depends upon the
the object that is used to move it, the force used to move it, and the direction of the force.
...the third law of motion, action and reaction, states that for every action their is an equal
or opposite reaction? A person on a skateboard pushes back to accelerate, and his push
back on the ground sends him forward on his skateboard.
...Isaac Newton discovered the laws of motion more than 300 years ago?
