Sweet squid combined with spicy chili sauce creates an attractive dish. Materials to prepare: – 1 squid about 369g – carrot – onion – zucchini – Scallion – 1 tablespoon vegetable oil – 1 teaspoon sesame oil Sauce Ingredients: – 2 tablespoons Korean chili sauce – 1 teaspoon chili powder – 1.5 tablespoons soy sauce xì – 1 teaspoon sugar – tablespoon corn syrup or 1 teaspoon sugar – 1 teaspoon minced garlic – 1 teaspoon minced ginger – 1 teaspoon sesame seeds – pinch of black pepper Doing: – Put all the ingredients for the sauce in a small bowl and mix well. – Clean ink. One hand grabs the body and head of the squid. Pull outward with a light twisting motion. The ink tip and internal parts will slide out easily. You can also use a fork or spoon to loosen the insides of the ink. Remove ink skin. Cut squid into rings about 1.9cm (or slit the body and cut into bite-sized pieces of squid 1.9cm wide, 5cm long). Do not cut the squid too small because when cooking the squid will shrink. Cut the tentacles into equal lengths. – Mix squid with spice mixture and marinate while preparing vegetables. – Finely chop the onion. Slice the zucchini and carrots into thin slices 5cm long. Slice the scallions to 5cm long. – Put the pan on the stove. Pour oil into the pan. Let the fire be high. Place the carrots, onions, zucchini, peppers, and green onions in the pan. Quickly sauté the vegetables until they begin to wilt, about 2 minutes. – Push the vegetables to the sides of the pan. Place the marinated squid and remaining sauce in the center of the pan. Stir-fry until the squid rolls and turns milky (about 2 minutes). – Stir well for vegetables and squid to infuse for 1 minute. Drizzle sesame oil on top. (Do not cook too long or the squid will be tough). – Pour spicy fried squid on a plate. – Eat spicy fried squid with rice.

How do jellyfish form? Ms. Miranda Lowe, curator of the Natural History Museum, in London, England, said the life cycle of most jellyfish species is similar. As hermaphrodites, jellyfish have two gonads, male and female, located in the longitudinal gastric tube symmetrically across the gastric plane. Normally, a jellyfish goes through five stages in its life. First, the adult jellyfish will “lay” eggs and sperm into the water. These two cells combine to form a fertilized egg in water. The fertilized egg develops into a small larva, called a planula. It looks like a microscopic worm and can move freely through the water. The planula will look for a solid surface, such as the seabed, for shelter. During this time, it will develop a digestive system and be able to feed itself. Thanks to the right water and temperature conditions, the planula will turn into a polyp. Polyps sprout, multiplying themselves into large clumps that look like giant bushes. When the right conditions are met, the polyps release into many young jellyfish. After the jellyfish is produced, the polyp changes to a younger polyp form. Young jellyfish continue to grow into adults. Despite their unique beginnings, most jellyfish have a short life span, usually from a few hours to several months. Some species can live for several years. However, the immortal jellyfish (scientific name: Turritopsis Dohrnii) is outside this rule. The secret of “tricking” Death The Immortal Jellyfish is a jellyfish-like waterfowl, of the phylum Cnidaria, commonly found in the Mediterranean Sea or the Sea of ​​Japan. It is shaped like a bell, with a diameter of about 4.5mm. The membrane of this jellyfish is quite thin, except for a little thick at the top. Their stomachs are relatively large, bright red in color. Young jellyfish are 1mm in diameter and have only 8 tentacles evenly spaced along the edge, while adults have 80-90 tentacles. Immortal jellyfish can reverse their life cycle when injured or starving to death. This means they could theoretically last forever. When physically damaged or under stress from starvation, the adult immortal jellyfish will transform the body’s tissues and circulatory system back to a polyp state. Because of the loss of tentacles and the ability to swim, polyps again settle to the sea floor. Over the next 24 – 36 hours, this polyp will develop into a new polyp, located in the early stages of the jellyfish. Then gradually, this polyp will hatch into a jellyfish. This phenomenon is compared to the life cycle of a butterfly. Instead of dying, the butterfly can transform back into a caterpillar and then from the cocoon, it will spread its wings again. The process behind the “rebirth” of the immortal jellyfish is a process of differentiated transformation, which is extremely rare in animals. According to research by scientists, cells in adult jellyfish and cells in polyps are different. The process of adult jellyfish shrinking into polyps allows it to form a new body, different from its original form. But the new adult jellyfish and the old jellyfish are genetically identical. Reversing the life cycle can be repetitive. In perfect habitat conditions, immortal jellyfish will never die of old age. Ms. Miranda commented: ‘We can be too focused on the large jellyfish. But little animals like this can provide a lot of great science about jellyfish and the natural world.” Diagram of the life cycle of a jellyfish. Faint existence Scientists think that the immortal jellyfish likely existed in the oceans long before the dinosaurs went extinct about 66 million years ago. But research on this animal only began in the 1980s. Immortal jellyfish were first discovered by scientists in 1883, but it was not until 100 years later, in 1980, that people accidentally discovered their immortality. University students Christian Sommer and Giorgio Bavestrello collected polyps from immortal jellyfish and watched them until the polyps turned into jellyfish. As immortal jellyfish mature, they assume that they must reproduce before they die. But unlike other species, they quickly turn back into polyps and settle to the bottom of the tank. Through observation, the two students realized that when under stress, this jellyfish would fall to the bottom of the tank and transform without fertilization or becoming a planula. This discovery led scientists to name the jellyfish Turritopsis Dohrnii the immortal jellyfish. However, not always immortal jellyfish can “fool” Death. They are the prey of many other animals such as sharks and turtles. The polyps of the immortal jellyfish are also defenseless against the pursuit of sea slugs or crustaceans. It is difficult to find out how long the immortal jellyfish can live. Immortal jellyfish are very sensitive, so laboratory studies are also fraught with challenges. Despite the difficulties, Mr. Shin Kubota, a Japanese scientist, has been raising immortal jellyfish since the 1990s. He commented that taking care of them is very time-consuming. Every day, he has to monitor the water temperature, the ambient temperature, the salinity of the water. The species’ favorite food is shrimp eggs, which must also be crushed. Kubota’s research shows that, in about two years in captivity, the immortal jellyfish have “rejuvenated” about 10 times. This jellyfish has a relatively secretive lifestyle, so their development is difficult to detect. Small size, translucent color, so immortal jellyfish are hard to see with the naked eye. Another reason the immortal jellyfish’s existence is overshadowed is that their existence does not have a negative impact on the environment. Also, in the treasure of human knowledge, the immortal jellyfish is still a mystery to be discovered in the future.

This species of snail is called Clusterwink, they are often found in clusters of snails stuck on rocky shores on Australian beaches. This snail is considered the strangest snail in the world because they can emit light on their own. Unlike land snails that secrete luminescent mucus, Clusterwink snails are bioluminescent based on a chemical reaction inside their bodies. When any creature touches it, it emits a green flashing light Until now, the ability of the Clusterwink snail to glow is still a mystery to scientists. They hypothesized that this could be a tool to help them raise alarms, communicate with their fellow humans, or frighten enemies Fireflies or glow bugs are small beetles collectively known as the family Fireflies that are luminescent. Fireflies are typical of temperate regions, although most species live in tropical and subtropical regions Fireflies are divided into two groups: flying fireflies and fireflies crawling on the ground. Both of these groups can emit the same special cold light, which does not radiate heat like artificial light The light of fireflies is emitted from the last few segments of the abdomen. During the day, these nodes are only gray-white in color, at night they emit subtle light through the transparent skin, with reflective cells that have the function of reflecting light out. Plankton occurs in most of the world’s beaches, especially in the Maldives. They emit a blue light, and tend to glow more strongly in the presence of waves This luminescent light acts as a signal to scare away enemies with color, an implicit warning to the enemy. On the other hand, it also distracts the enemy, distracting the enemy, the plankton uses that opportunity to escape. In addition, according to scientists, bioluminescent plankton is a signal to attract and support larger organisms to hunt copepods – enemies of plankton. Atolla jellyfish live in the depths of the ocean. They have 22 tentacles, one of which is larger than the others and is used to catch prey, this jellyfish is known as the “moving lamp” of the sea. Unlike many other jellyfish, the Atolla jellyfish when attacked will immediately glow brightly. The light it emits can illuminate as far as 91.44m At that time, larger species will be attracted to this light and rush to it. Then the hunter becomes the prey again and the jellyfish will take this opportunity to escape Atolla jellyfish often use tentacles to catch prey. When the prey has been captured by the tentacles, they swing back and forth until the prey has no resistance and then enjoy. The anglerfish, also known as anglerfish – literally “fishing rod fish”, this fish has a fleshy nodule that grows from the head to become a luminous organ that functions as a bait During hunting, this part of the fin will glow, making the fish around it attracted. After that, their job is just to open their large mouth and take the whole prey into their stomach It is known that Anglerfish are considered the “demon” of the ocean floor because they have extremely ugly but extremely sharp teeth, this fish often lives in the deep sea, without light. In the forests of some Asian countries, including Vietnam, people still often encounter glowing mushrooms. This mushroom has the scientific name Omphalotus nidiformis but is often referred to as the “ghost mushroom”. Ghost mushroom is considered a poisonous mushroom that contains illudin compound – a luminescent substance or phosphorous substance that causes poisoning to humans when ingested. Mushroom poisonings often occur in the winter and spring, when fungi grow and develop. Therefore, people absolutely should not go to the forest to pick wild mushrooms to eat Geckos are a famous creature, known to many people because they have the ability to change color continuously according to the season and weather. However, very few people know that, under ultraviolet light, the bones of many chameleon species are also capable of emitting fluorescent light. This strange millipede is a millipede, scientifically known as Motyxia sequoia. Scientists think this millipede evolved a way to glow in the dark to cope with the stress of life when living in a hot, dry environment. In addition to stress relief, the blue light emitted by the Motyxia sequoiae mat also warns predators that they may spew out cyanide. When the light this millipede emits is not enough to ward off danger, they also ooze toxic cyanide and foul odors from their small feet. This millipede is blind, so they cannot attract each other with light, nor do they use light to attract prey. The ability to glow is just an odd defense mechanism of this creature

Balut Illustration. This dish is very popular in Southeast Asian countries such as Vietnam, the Philippines, Cambodia, and Laos. In which, the duck eggs are incubated for 16 to 20 days, then boiled and eaten with sliced ​​fresh vegetables and ginger. Most foreigners will not dare to eat duck eggs because it feels like a scary dish. Durian Despite its very eye-catching colors, this famous fruit of these Asian countries is not popular with Western tourists. For many people, the smell of durian is quite unpleasant, so they have to cover their noses a hundred meters away. Even some tourists cannot eat this fruit even a piece. Rotten tofu Considered a dish of the Chinese in the past. Stinky tofu tastes like rotten feces, but to the person who eats them, it tastes delicious, extremely ecstatic. This dish is usually deep fried, served with sauerkraut and soy sauce. For Western guests, trying tofu is definitely a difficult and unforgettable challenge. Tuna eyes This is one of the most exotic Japanese specialties. Tuna eyes are very hard, only the cone-like jelly can be eaten after steaming. This dish makes many Europeans dare not look, let alone eat. Shirako (fish genitals) Shirako is made with sperm sacs from fish. According to many people, shirako is not easy to eat. Its taste has a strong smell but the Japanese love to eat fresh shirako. Bat soup Although bats are also often eaten by many Asian countries, seeing black bats in a bowl of specialty Indonesian soup still makes many people feel scared. Natto Natto is a type of fermented soybean with a very unpleasant smell and sharp taste. On the surface of natto covered with viscous, silk like spider webs. Most people can’t eat natto because they can’t stand the smell of it, not because it doesn’t taste good. Raw horse meat Basashi – raw horse meat is a traditional Japanese dish. The meat is thinly sliced, easy to put in the mouth, served with grated ginger and some herbs, dipped with shoyu soy sauce. Although many people commented that the taste is not bad, for Western tourists, eating red meat is still a big challenge for them. Insect In many Asian countries such as Thailand, Cambodia… insects are an indispensable part of culinary culture. Here, insects such as spiders, scorpions, locusts… are often piled high and ready to be used as snacks. Many people who eat insects will find the food very delicious and nutritious. However, for many people, trying dishes made with insects still requires a lot of courage. Fresh octopus This is a famous Korean dish. The tentacles of the octopus are chopped and eaten as soon as they are grabbed on the plate, or if you are braver, you can eat the whole one. However, eating the whole octopus is quite dangerous because the suckers on the tentacles can stick very tightly and cause suffocation.

When swimming in the sea, we may encounter the dangerous phenomenon that the current is far from the shore and pulls people away. At this point you need to swim diagonally or parallel to the shore to get out of the water. Do not try to swim straight to shore. When moving in a straight line, crocodiles can run faster than humans. However, due to their short legs and long body, they are very clumsy when it comes to making sharp turns somewhere. So if you are chased by a crocodile, follow the zigzag path to escape. Being “stung” by jellyfish, the victim’s skin and body will have quite strong reactions such as allergies, nervous shock, and may be strongly poisoned. So when unfortunate encounters, it is necessary to clean the wound and remove the rest of the jellyfish tentacles, wash the wound with salt water and apply apple cider vinegar, or alcohol to the wound and then see a doctor for advice. question. The most important thing to spend the night in the forest if you get lost is a layer of ground cover to avoid getting cold at night. Bears hardly actively attack humans. So, if you happen to encounter them, step back slowly, limit eye contact and keep your distance to show that you do not intend to encroach on their territory. When in an emergency situation, do not eat snow instead of water. Because they will cool your body. At this time, the body will have to expend extra energy to keep warm. In case of helpless poverty, wait for the snow to melt and then drink water. When the oil in the pan is too hot, but the chef did not notice, the fire caught in the pan must not be extinguished with water. The most effective way is to use a large cotton cloth or use a mixture of table salt, water, and ammonia to put out the fire. If you are suddenly attacked on the road, do not try to fight back, but find a way to escape immediately, especially when the enemy has a weapon. While running, scream loudly. If the enemy attacks and causes damage to your body, find a way to hit his weak points – eyes, throat, crotch… to defend yourself. If you accidentally fall into a cold water, improve your chances of survival by crossing your arms in front of your chest, bringing your legs up to your stomach (if you have a life jacket). It is the HELP (Heat Escape Lessening Postures) position, which prevents your body from escaping too much while waiting for rescue. When there is an earthquake, the first thing to do is to lie close to the ground, get under the table. In the absence of a table, go to the corner of the room, sit against the wall and cover your head with pillows. Stay in that position until the earthquake passes, and only move if the wall is in danger of collapsing. The weak point of the shark is indeed in the nose, but it is almost impossible to attack it. So, if you are attacked by a shark, you should attack its 2 very sensitive positions, eyes and gills, much easier to hit. The best way to increase your chances of surviving an elevator crash is to lie on your back. At this time, the muscle and fat bundles in the body will become a cushion to absorb the impact force from the impact. In case you can’t lie down, at least sit down. This pose isn’t the best, but it’s also more effective than standing. When trapped in a burning building, remember this: smoke is the worst enemy, and smoke rises upward. Therefore, when moving, crouch as low as possible, crawl towards the exit door to avoid smoke. If you have a towel or a cloth (a mask is better), immediately cover your mouth to limit smoke inhalation for as long as possible. In the rainy and stormy season, it is necessary to limit to empty places, because there is nothing to make a lightning rod for you (such as tall buildings, treetops…). But if you happen to be in the middle of the field while the storm is coming, at least squat or kneel, put your head between your knees and your hands over your ears. If there is anything taller than you around, make sure to stay away from the object. In case you fall into the water and cannot get to the shore immediately, immediately take off the pants you are wearing, tie your legs together. Then swing your pants vigorously to capture as much air as possible, and then drape them around your neck. At that time, the pants will become a temporary lifeline.

The star-nosed mole is a species of small mole found in the humid lowlands of eastern Canada and the northeastern United States, with records along the Atlantic coast as far as extreme southeastern Georgia. It is the only member of the tribe Condylurini and the genus Condylura. Blobfish (also known as teardrop fish) – a fish voted by the Ugly Animal Preservation Society as the standard of evil. This fish was first found in the waters of New Zealand and Australia, at depths between 600 and 1,200 meters. These are also places where the pressure is about 118 times higher than sea level. If you’ve ever seen a cephalopod recently discovered by scientists, perhaps all the strange things in this world will become completely normal, and also not surprising. , because this creature is considered the strangest species. Essentially it looks like an oversized paper clip or a long “beard” on the head, they have a curved body with twists. This animal is called Diplomoceras maximum. It’s a pity that no matter in any zoo on the planet or on a deep-sea diving boat, you won’t be able to see this animal, because it is just like Tyrannosaurus. This animal lived in Antarctica during the Cretaceous period 68 million years ago and what we can see today are only their fossils. The age of the fossils is about 68 million years, the end of the Cretaceous period, the same time as the tyrannosaurs. This strange squid mainly inhabits the waters around present-day Antarctica. It is possible that they became extinct at the same time as the dinosaurs because of the catastrophic impact of the asteroid Chicxulub. The fossil of this strange squid was discovered by the Antarctic Expedition at the UK’s University of Leeds. Scientists conducted a scientific investigation on Seymour Island in the Antarctic peninsula for six years and discovered more than 6,000 fossils of marine life. The most special of these is the squid Diplomoceras maximum (Paperclip squid). Fossils of paperclip squid are now on public display at the Earth Museum in Ithaca, New York, if you’re lucky enough to see it, you won’t be able to imagine why this animal grew up like that. – it is about 1.5 meters long and can be up to 2 meters long, equivalent to the height of a human; if it stretched out its paperclip-shaped body in a straight line, its body length would exceed 4 meters. Their assumption is consistent because shells are known to grow by accretion, creating new growth each year. After shrinking the giant shells of these 1.5-meter-long animals, the researchers concluded that the only plausible explanation is that these animals have a lifespan of about 200 years. In addition, the most surprising thing to scientists is that this paperclip squid has a lifespan of up to 200 years, speculated now from the ridges on their shells, this calculation is similar to the way Calculate the age from the ridges of the tree trunk. Their shells were developed through accretion, based on repeated patterns of carbon and oxygen isotopes, which scientists believe reflects annual methane production on the seafloor. This means that the paperclip’s shell will grow one more groove each year, and it will grow longer and longer. And the question is why this squid was able to live so long, while modern cephalopods, such as cuttlefish and squid, have a lifespan of less than 5 years even when they are the largest species of this family or the cephalopods are also shellfish, they can only live up to 20 years. So paperclip ink can live to be 200 years old is completely strange and mysterious. New research published at an online meeting of the American Geological Society claims to have discovered new evidence for a previously unknown creature with a very long lifespan. To answer this question, paleontologists have put forward a threefold hypothesis – they suggest that their habitat at that time was similar to that of the Greenland shark, which lived in cold waters. The price of Antarctica, have long and dark winters, lack of food sources, so they have to slow down their metabolism to increase their chances of successful reproduction, so their lifespan is also increased.
