Feathers are complex, branched, keratinized epidermal features commonly associated with Class Aves, or birds (Bock, 2000). Cells in the epidermis called keratinocytes are the structural components of feathers; however, the protein keratin varies in its distribution and can be of different types (Prum, 2002). Many functions involved with feathers include thermal insulation, flight, cleaning of plumage, heat protection, sound production, chemical defenses, water repulsion of plumage, social communication
used to distinguish animals from one another. The body covering helps to protect the animal in different environments. An animal’s class determines the body coverings. For instance the mammals have fur or hair, reptiles have dry scales, birds have feathers, amphibians have moist or smooth skin and fish have wet, slimy scales. Examples of animals with their respective covering are the armadillo which contains plates, the porcupine with quills and others. The animals’ body coverings come in various forms

Crawling, I try and find the warmth and heart beat of mama; she hasn’t returned home from her journey. My feathers are near frozen and and my stomach growls and lurches. I panic at the chill that washes over my body. The fluff and mama’s feathers are on the brink of extinction. Frost bitten and hungry, I stumble to the oval opening in the hollow. A fresh blanket of snow is layered over the great forest. Did mama get redirected in the snow? I wonder. I creep closer towards the rough unknown terrain
dinosaurs?” Paleontologists have argued back and forth trying to prove or disprove each side of the theory. So far, advocates have supported their side through the facts of similar bone structures, bone organization, and the idea that dinosaurs had feathers. A common reaction that some people might have about the question is that there is no connection between the two species. Their main reasoning for this conclusion is based on the belief that the two do not have any similar characteristics. I too

It was a peacock, with a deep ocean blue neck, an icecap white spot around each of its earth-brown eyes, and a brilliant wave of leaf green ran from the blue to the start of its tail feathers. Oh, the tail feathers! Millions of them, so plentiful and and every feather sported a deep green, a river hue, and a deep violet, as well as other majestic shades that made me want to weep tears of joy. I was stunned

They also have a bone called a furcula, in their chest, which is very important for being able to produce the strength and support needed to flap their wings. Birds also have very powerful muscles to power their wings, which means they can flap their wings so fast so that they can take off from the ground and move through the air, as well as gliding through the air. A bird can make its feathers close
Pepper’s black and white dress look as though it were on backwards. In my opinion, the strings on a dress like this would tie in the back. After further thought, I predicted that Pepper wore it the way s/he did in order to remove it and hang it up without assistance after the
The Sound of a Hundred Feathers Art has always been considered the effervescent universal tool of communication. Art does not require a concrete directive . One sculpture,drawing or written creative piece, can evoke a myriad of emotions and meaning . Artistic pieces can sometimes be considered the regurgitation of the artist's internal sanctum.

During the settlement and colonization of Africa, the whites thought themselves to be superior to any human who was different from their color (i.e. Natives). This is well shown when Marlow described his first impression
Several human figures can also be found gathered around one central human figure who is lying on the ground with the other figures of children around him. The figure of the man is in the foreground of the painting in the center. His arms are oriented in positions indicating fatigue or anguish, one arm by his side tucked tightly in toward his body, and the other is stretched over his head bent at the elbow and draping over his forehead.

While Faulkner’s use of the color white in this story wasn’t obvious at first it soon becomes clear that the color white represents innocence and youth. The Grierson house was white and when Miss Emily was a young girl she wore white dresses as opposed to the black attire she wore in her latter years.
