THE SURVIVAL INDEX OF PERIPLANATA AMERICANA AS A BIOLOGICAL SPECIES

Robotic cockroach experiment: squeezing,smashing and more

1. Nuclear Attack: Can cockroaches survive?
2. 350 million years old cockroach:150 million years old dinosaurs
3. Out of 3,500 species of roaches, only 57 resides and more then 20 or so equipped to live in a man made
environment.
4. Head-less cockroach. Regenerates neck but not head

 Novel Shell-less Culture System for Chick Embryos Using a Plastic Film as Culture Vessels
First the students prepared the eggs, which were store bought. In the next shot, the chick is nearly fully
developed.
The eggs were cracked and placed into the artificial culture vessel.

The egg is artificially fertilized and then it is placed into an

incubator. Finally, here is one of the little guys running around.

Next, a heart beats

Why Does It Matter?

According to their 2014 research paper, the shell-less

method has multiple benefits, most notably concerning
the preservation of rare birds. This technique can be
applied when trying to save eggs that have been broken
or are at risk of breaking. Broken eggs mean fewer birds, but the shell-less technique means those
eggs can be recovered.

The chick starts to develop; its features become identifiable

..Here you can see the eye and the beak as the bird rests inside its artificial shell.
