Some species are carnivorous at the tadpole stage, eating insects, smaller tadpoles and fish.

Some of the plants are herbs that produce enough scent to possibly dilute the odours of nearby plants, or the pheromones emitted by insects that find those plants, which would otherwise attract more pests.

Some Jains abstain from farming because it inevitably entails unintentional killing or injuring of many small animals, such as worms and insects, but agriculture is not forbidden in general and there are Jain farmers.

After attending one such lecture, UFO investigator Robert Sheaffer wrote " Some of his “ rods ” were obviously insects zipping across the field at a high angular rate.

Some arthropods however, especially large insects with tracheal respiration, expand their new exoskeleton by swallowing or otherwise taking in air.

Some plants have pest repelling properties or draw beneficial insects to the garden.

Some have argued that insects diversified with angiosperms because insect anatomy, especially the mouth parts, seems particularly well-suited for flowering plants.

Some kinds of exoskeletons undergo periodic moulting as the animal grows, as is the case in many arthropods including insects and crustaceans.

Some observations of living insects have been possible, however.

Some insects, such as ant eggs and silk worms, are also eaten boiled in a soup in Isan, or used in omelets in northern Thailand.

Some yeasts are found in association with soil and insects.

Some specialise in the liquid in pitchers of particular species of pitcher plants, their larvae feeding on decaying insects that had drowned there or on the associated bacteria ; the harmless genus Wyeomyia provides such examples — Wyeomyia smithii breeds only in the pitchers of Sarracenia purpurea.

Some groups of plants developed nectar and large sticky pollen, while insects evolved more specialized morphologies to access and collect these rich food sources.

Some of the common insects found at elevations above 2, 000 feet are orange paper wasps, honey bees, black flies, tarantula hawks, stink bugs, beetles, black ants, and monarch and swallowtail butterflies.

Some butterflies have evolved symbiotic and parasitic relationships with social insects such as ants.

Some species are pests because in their larval stages they can damage domestic crops or trees ; however, some species are agents of pollination of some plants, and caterpillars of a few butterflies ( e. g., Harvesters ) eat harmful insects.

Some seeds are shed when the cone scales shrink during hot weather in late summer, but most are liberated when the cone dries from fire heat or is damaged by insects.

Some types of insects, and molluscs such as the octopus, also have strong spatial learning and navigation abilities, but these appear to work differently from the mammalian spatial system, so there is as yet no good reason to think that they have a common evolutionary origin ; nor is there sufficient similarity in brain structure to enable anything resembling a " hippocampus " to be identified in these species.

Some species, particularly the ground-doves and quail-doves take a large number of prey items such as insects and worms.

Some authors draw a distinction in writing the common names of insects.

Some small insects do demonstrate continuous respiration and may lack muscular control of the spiracles.

Some plants may be grown for food production, some to attract beneficial insects, and others to repel harmful insects.

Some insects in the adult form are nectar or pollen feeders, while in the larval form they are voracious predators of pest insects.

Some kinds of animals, such as amphibians, spend portions of their lives in water and portions on land.

Some amphibians are able to absorb oxygen through their skin.

Some amphibians ( e. g. the cane toad and greater siren ) aestivate during the hot dry season by moving underground where it is cooler and more humid.

Some toxins and venoms produced by reptiles and amphibians are useful in human medicine.

Some amphibians are fitted with reinforced keels which act as skiis, allowing them to land on snow or ice with their wheels up and are dubbed tri-phibians.

Some non-amphibious seaplanes may be mistaken for amphibians ( such as the Shin Meiwa PS-1 ) which carry their own beaching gear-usually this is a wheeled dolly or temporary set of wheels used to move a flying boat or floatplane from the water and allow it to be moved around on land but can also appear as a conventional undercarriage.

Some species produce many extra copies of genes, such as amphibians, which may have up to 1 or 2 million copies.

Some biologists argued that populations of most organisms, amphibians included, naturally vary through time.

Some recent evidence points to ozone as a possible contributing factor to the worldwide decline of amphibians.

Some wormlike amphibians have tentacles.

Some are said to attack amphibians as well.

Some of the fish and amphibians found in the Sunderbans are sawfish, butter Fish, electric ray, common carp, silver carp, barb, river Eels, starfish, king crab, fiddler crab, hermit crab, prawn, shrimps, Gangetic dolphins, skipping frogs, common toads and tree Frogs.

Some new and rare reptiles and amphibians from Southern Ecuador.

Some species within this family are preyed upon by a number of amphibians including the rough-skinned newt, Taricha granulosa.

* Some molluscs, such as octopuses and squid, and some gastropods

Some of the most commonly encountered molluscs in this habitat include Black Nerites ( Nerita atramentosa ), Turbin Snails ( Turbo undulata ), Zebra Snails ( Austrocochlea porcata ) as well as the commercially farmed Sydney Rock Oyster ( Saccostrea glomerata ).

Some arthropods and most molluscs possess the copper-containing hemocyanin, however, for oxygen transport.

Some mucins are associated with controlling mineralization, including nacre formation in molluscs, calcification in echinoderms and bone formation in vertebrates.
