Baleia jubarte

Entre as baleias grandes mais acrobáticas, as baleias-jubarte são famosas por seus cantos complexos e evocativos entoados pelos machos durante a temporada reprodutiva, podendo durar horas e evoluir ao longo do tempo. Atingindo 16 metros e 30 toneladas, realizam as migrações mais longas de qualquer mamífero. Encontradas em todos os oceanos, alimentam-se de krill e peixes pequenos usando a técnica cooperativa de rede de bolhas.

violeta

<em>Viola odorata</em>, commonly known as the common violet or sweet violet, is a low-growing perennial herb in the family Violaceae native to Europe, western Asia, and North Africa, and now widely naturalized across temperate regions globally. This species typically inhabits woodland margins, hedgerows, shaded banks, meadows, and gardens, thriving in moist, humus-rich soils under partial to full shade. <em>Viola odorata</em> is one of the earliest spring-flowering plants in its native range, producing distinctive deep violet, occasionally white or pink, fragrant flowers from late winter through early spring. The characteristic sweet fragrance is produced by ionone compounds and has made this species extensively cultivated for use in perfumery, confectionery, and herbal medicine for centuries. The plant spreads vegetatively via stolons in addition to seed dispersal, enabling it to form dense ground-covering colonies in favorable habitats. The flowers and leaves are edible and have been used in culinary traditions across Europe as garnishes and salad ingredients. <em>Viola odorata</em> is an important early nectar source for bumblebees and other early-season pollinators. The species is currently assessed as Least Concern by the IUCN, with widespread and stable populations. Biological traits including average lifespan, plant height, and individual weight remain variable and are poorly documented in the scientific literature.
