The rooster and the hen (Gallus gallus domesticus) are the domestic subspecies of the
Gallus gallus species, a species of Galliform bird of the Phasianidae family from
Southeast Asia. Common names are: rooster, for the male; hen, for the female, and
chicken, for the subadults. It is the most numerous bird on the planet, since it is
estimated that the number of copies exceeds 16 billion.
Roosters and chickens are raised primarily for their meat and eggs. Their feathers are
also used and some varieties are raised and trained for use in cockfights and as
ornamental birds.
It is an omnivorous bird. Their life expectancy is between five and ten years, depending
on the race.
La característica más importante del esqueleto de las tortugas es que una gran parte
de su columna vertebral está soldada a la parte dorsal del caparazón. El esqueleto
hace que la respiración sea imposible por movimiento de la caja torácica; se realiza
principalmente por la contracción de los músculos abdominales modificados que
funcionan de modo análogo al diafragma de los mamíferos y por movimientos de
bombeo de la faringe.2 Aunque carecen de dientes, tienen un pico córneo que recubre
su mandíbula, parecido al pico de las aves.
Al igual que todos los reptiles, las tortugas son animales ectotérmicos, lo que significa
que su actividad metabólica depende de la temperatura externa o ambiental. Las
tortugas mudan la piel; sin embargo, a diferencia de los lagartos y serpientes, lo hacen
poco a poco. También mudan o desprenden los escudos del caparazón,
individualmente y aparentemente sin un orden determinado
The most important characteristic of the turtle skeleton is that a large part of its spine is
welded to the dorsal part of the shell. The skeleton makes breathing impossible by
movement of the rib cage; It is mainly performed by the contraction of the modified
abdominal muscles that work analogously to the diaphragm of mammals and by
pumping movements of the pharynx.2 Although they lack teeth, they have a corneal
peak that covers their jaw, similar to the peak of the birds.
Like all reptiles, turtles are ectothermic animals, which means that their metabolic
activity depends on external or environmental temperature. Turtles shed skin; however,
unlike lizards and snakes, they do it little by little. They also change or detach the
shields of the shell, individually and apparently without a certain order
El gato doméstico12 (Felis silvestris catus), llamado simplemente gato, minino,3
michino,4 michi,5 micho,6 mizo,7 miz,8 morroño9 o morrongo,10 entre otros
nombres coloquiales, es un mamífero carnívoro de la familia Felidae. Es una
subespecie domesticada por la convivencia con el ser humano.
The domestic cat12 (Felis silvestris catus), simply called cat, pussycat, 3 michino, 4
michi, 5 micho, 6 mizo, 7 miz, 8 morroño9 or morrongo, 10 among other colloquial
names, is a carnivorous mammal of the Felidae family. It is a subspecies domesticated
by living with the human being.
The dog (Canis lupus familiaris), 123 called domestic dog or can, 4 and colloquially
chucho5 or tuso, 6 and also choco, 7 is a carnivorous mammal of the family of canids,
which constitutes a subspecies of the wolf (Canis lupus). In 2001, it was estimated that
there were four hundred million dogs in the world.8 Their size or size, their shape and
coat is very diverse depending on the breed. It has a highly developed ear and smell,
the latter being its main sensory organ. Their average longevity is about thirteen to
fifteen years, although small races can reach up to twenty years or more, while giant
races only live nine or ten years.
El león (Panthera leo) es un mamífero carnívoro de la familia de los félidos y una de
las cinco especies del género Panthera. Los leones salvajes viven en poblaciones
cada vez más dispersas y fragmentadas del África subsahariana (a excepción de las
regiones selváticas de la costa del Atlántico y la cuenca del Congo) y una pequeña
zona del noroeste de India (una población en peligro crítico en el Parque nacional del
Bosque de Gir y alrededores), habiendo desaparecido del resto de Asia del Sur, Asia
Occidental, África del Norte y la península balcánica en tiempos históricos. Hasta
finales del Pleistoceno, hace aproximadamente 10 000 años, de los grandes
mamíferos terrestres, el león era el más extendido tras los humanos. Su distribución
cubría la mayor parte de África, gran parte de Eurasia, desde el oeste de Europa hasta
la India, y en América, desde el río Yukón hasta el sur de México.
The lion (Panthera leo) is a carnivorous mammal of the felidae family and one of the
five species of the genus Panthera. Wild lions live in increasingly dispersed and
fragmented populations of sub-Saharan Africa (except for the jungle regions of the
Atlantic coast and the Congo Basin) and a small area of northwestern India (a critically
endangered population in the Park National Forest of Gir and surroundings), having
disappeared from the rest of South Asia, West Asia, North Africa and the Balkan
Peninsula in historical times. Until the late Pleistocene, approximately 10,000 years
ago, of the great land mammals, the lion was the most widespread after humans. Its
distribution covered most of Africa, much of Eurasia, from western Europe to India, and
in America, from the Yukon River to southern Mexico.
The sheep (Ovis orientalis aries) is a domestic ungulate quadruped mammal, used as
cattle. Like all ruminants, sheep are artiodactyls, or animals with hooves. Although the
term "sheep" applies to many species of the genus Ovis, it usually refers to the
domestic subspecies of Ovis orientalis.
The cow, in the case of the female, or bull, in the case of the male, (Bos primigenius
taurus), is an artiodactyl mammal of the bovid family. The scientific name is the one
assigned to the European and non-Asian domestic vaccinator animal 1, a set of
domestic bovids descended from the subspecies of Eurasian wild uro known as Bos
primigenius primigenius; while Bos primigenius indicus is called zebu and other
domestic bovine breeds from the same trunk, and descendants of the wild uro
subspecies of Southeast Asia, called Bos primigenius namadicus. It is a large and
robust body ruminant mammal, about 120-150 cm tall and 600-800 kg of average
weight.
El cerdo (Sus scrofa domestica) es una subespecie de mamífero artiodáctilo de
la familia Suidae. Es un animal doméstico usado en la alimentación humana por
muchos pueblos. Su nombre científico es Sus scrofa ssp. domestica, aunque algunos
autores lo denominan Sus domesticus o Sus domestica, reservando Sus scrofa para el
jabalí.
The pig (Sus scrofa domestica) is a subspecies of artiodactyl mammal of the Suidae
family. It is a pet used in human food by many peoples. His scientific name is Sus
scrofa ssp. domestica, although some authors call it His domesticus or Sus domestica,
reserving Sus scrofa for the wild boar.
Los antófilos (Anthophila, gr. ‘que aman las flores’), conocidos comúnmente
como abejas, son un clado de insectos himenópteros, sin ubicación en categoría
taxonómica, dentro de la superfamilia Apoidea. Se trata de un linaje monofilético con
más de 20 000 especies conocidas. Las abejas, al igual que las hormigas,
evolucionaron a partir de avispas. Los antepasados de las abejas eran miembros de la
familia Crabronidae y eran depredadores de insectos. Es posible que las primeras
abejas se hayan alimentado del polen que cubría a algunas de sus presas y que,
gradualmente, hayan empezado a alimentar a sus crías con polen en vez de insectos.
Anthophiles (Anthophila, gr.. Who love flowers ’), commonly known as bees, are a
clade of hymenoptera insects, with no taxonomic category location, within the Apoidea
superfamily. It is a monophyletic lineage with more than 20 000 known species. Bees,
like ants, evolved from wasps. The ancestors of the bees were members of the
Crabronidae family and were insect predators. It is possible that the first bees had fed
on the pollen that covered some of their prey and that, gradually, they had begun to
feed their young with pollen instead of insects.1
El término canguro es el nombre común que se utiliza para designar a las especies de
mayor tamaño de la subfamilia Macropodinae, tal como el término ualabí se utiliza
para denominar a las de menor tamaño. Se utiliza también a veces en un sentido más
amplio, o extenso, para referirse a casi todos los miembros de la familia de los
macrópodos. Sin embargo, el término no responde a una clasificación científica, por lo
que especies pertenecientes a un mismo género (agrupación de especies
estrechamente relacionadas entre sí) pueden ser llamadas canguro, ualabí o ualarú,
sólo dependiendo de su tamaño. Por ejemplo, Macropus parma es conocido como
el ualabí de Parma,1 mientras que Macropus antilopinus, es denominado
indistintamente como canguro antílope o ualarú antílope.
The term kangaroo is the common name used to designate the largest species of the
Macropodinae subfamily, just as the term wallaby is used to designate the smaller
ones. It is also sometimes used in a broader, or more extensive sense, to refer to
almost all members of the macropod family. However, the term does not respond to a
scientific classification, so species belonging to the same genus (grouping of closely
related species) can be called kangaroo, ualabí or ualarú, only depending on their size.
For example, Macropus parma is known as the Parma Wallaby, 1 while Macropus
antilopinus, is indistinctly referred to as antelope kangaroo or antelope ualarú.2
