betônica

<em>Mesosphaerum pectinatum</em>, commonly known as comb hyptis, is an herbaceous plant in the family Lamiaceae with a broad distribution across Africa, Asia, and South America. It grows in disturbed habitats, open forest margins, grasslands, roadsides, and agricultural areas within tropical and subtropical regions. The genus <em>Mesosphaerum</em> was established following the reclassification of species formerly placed in <em>Hyptis</em>, and <em>M. pectinatum</em> retains the common name reflecting its former generic placement. The plant typically produces aromatic foliage characteristic of the mint family and bears small flowers arranged in distinctive inflorescences. It is used in traditional medicine in parts of its range, with documented applications in treating a variety of ailments. Its wide geographic range reflects adaptability to disturbed and secondary habitats across three continents. Specific biological metrics including lifespan and dimensions are not available in the current record.

Epaulard

O maior membro da família dos golfinhos, as orcas (Orcinus orca) podem atingir até 9 metros de comprimento e 6 toneladas, sendo encontradas em todos os oceanos, do Ártico ao Antártico. Predadores de topo que vivem em grupos matrilineares com dialetos distintos, estratégias de caça e tradições culturais que diferem entre populações. Algumas populações se especializam em peixes, outras em mamíferos marinhos. Sem predadores naturais, as orcas ocupam o topo de todas as cadeias alimentares marinhas que habitam.
