 Air rings: Dolphins and certain whales are known to blow bubble rings - they use it for fun about the thickness of a straw and 1 to 2 feet in diameter. The rings don't rise to the surface. The babies play with these underwater toys by moving them around with their rostrum, or biting them or to swim throug. They can elongate them with a flick of their dorsal fins into 15 foot corkscrews.  Two ways of creating such rings; one way is by letting a ring out of their blow hole, the other by creating a water vortex ring and blowing air in the vortex ring.\\ Air rings: Dolphins and certain whales are known to blow bubble rings - they use it for fun about the thickness of a straw and 1 to 2 feet in diameter.

-Schijnspurrie (Spergularia media), is one of the only flowers that have there range on the lower salt marsh. When the area is flooded by the tide, the flower instantly closes it petles with an air bubble within the flower, so the pollen stay dry when the plant is under water.

 De klapmuts {zeehond...} De mannetjes hebben een brede, vlezige snuit die over de mond hangt. Ze kunnen deze uitgroeiing van de neusholte opblazen. In opgeblazen toestand is die blaas felrood en wordt gebruikt om vrouwtjes te imponeren en andere mannetjes af te schrikken.\\ De klapmuts {zeehond...} De mannetjes hebben een brede, vlezige snuit die over de mond hangt.

 Green Anoles  (lizard) live in warm climates throughout the New World. Aside from their chameleon-like ability to change colors, the males of these small, agile lizards also possess a throat fan—known as a dewlap—which they use during territorial disputes and for courtship. When courting, a male will bob his head vigorously and may even perform an action that resembles push-ups. In response, a receptive female will bob her head in synchrony with the male. \\ Green Anoles  (lizard) live in warm climates throughout the New World.
