The platypus is an Australian mammal that does not fall neatly into a classification. It is one of only two mammals (the other being the echidna) that bear young by laying eggs. In some respects, the platypus resembles a duck; both have webbed feet and bils. The platypus has a tail like a beaver's and a furry body similar to an otter's. Its unusual hybrid of body parts makes it well-suited for its largely aquatic life. The platypus uses its webbed feet to paddle through water, and its tail serves as a kind of rudder for steering.
While underwater, the platypus uses its bill to scoop up bits of food, such as insects and shellfish, from the water's bottom. The platypus also scoops up bits of gravel, which grind up the food, as the platypus is toothless. The platypus stores the food and gravel in its cheeks until it reaches the water's surface. Once the platypus surfaces, it consumes its meal.

While the invention of the steamboat is often attributed to American inventor Robert Fulton, credit should really go to John Fitch. Fitch built four steamboats in the late eighteenth century. These boats traveled successfully on lakes and rivers and proved that steam could be used to propel boats. Fitch's boats included more traditional elements as well, such as paddle wheels and screw propellers.
By blending tried and true methods of propulsion with new technology, Fitch created functioning steamboats. He forfeited his place in American memory due not to any mechanical failings, but to financial ones. His production and operating costs were too high to make steam travel economically feasible.
As a result, many people have forgotten his role in the invention of the steamboat. It wasn't until after his death that Robert Fulton created a commercially successful steamboat and became known as "the father of steam navigationa."

D:It wasn’t until after his death that Robert Fulton created a commercially successful steamboat and became known as “the father of steam navigation.”

Can explain how the number of daylight hours is related to seasons and put it in a paragraph
The number of daylight hours is closely related to the seasons. As the Earth orbits the Sun, its axis is tilted in relation to its orbital plane. This tilt is responsible for the changing seasons. During the summer months, the hemisphere tilted towards the Sun receives more direct sunlight, resulting in longer daylight hours. This leads to warmer temperatures and an overall increase in daylight. In contrast, during the winter months, the hemisphere tilted away from the Sun receives less direct sunlight, resulting in shorter daylight hours. This leads to colder temperatures and a decrease in daylight. The transition between these seasons is marked by the equinoxes, where the lengths of daylight and darkness are nearly equal. Ultimately, the changing number of daylight hours plays a crucial role in shaping the seasons we experience throughout the year.
