Gravity is everywhere. It pulls us down to earth.If we didn’t have gravity we would be floating.Here’s a fun fact. Astronauts grow taller in space.  Astronauts gain 4 to 6 cm in space but on earth adults can lose 2 to 3 cm.  In space there is no gravity.

 Gravity is invisible. Every time you jump, you experience gravity. It grabs you back down to earth. Without gravity, you would be floating off into the space along with all of the other objects on Earth. You see gravity every time you drop something like a pencil, a rubber and a book, basically everything.


Gravity is a force, along with tension.tension it when you pull on something tight.

The first set ,of the sea turtles life cycle, is when they hatch out of eggs. Their mother has laid 50 - 200, leathery ping-pong ball, sized eggs. It takes ,roughly, a month and a half before they hatch. Sadly 20% ,will never hatch. Each of the sea turtles are small enough to fit in the palm of your hand.  From there, they immediately face many challenges. Such as:

-the repelling force of the curunt

-crabs,seagulls,

raccoons

-human interference

and others. While making a dash for the ocean, only 50% of those will survive.

The 50% that get into the water have to rummage along the ocean top and find a patch of seaweed to hide under. They will do this for several months to avoid all their predators. To survive through this difficult for them. The causes are weather,

Other animals and unfortunate currents. 50% of those will miserably perish.

As they develop they will get from the size, of a dinner plate at year one, to a dinner table when they're adults. Which is about a decade or so for that species. When they become fully developed they get some measure of protection. The only predators now are some of the larger sharks species. For example bulls and whites. There are also the occasional killer whale.

Approximately two decades of age, the mothers are able to Lay eggs and continue the cycle in which their species depends on.

Those that began as eggs now less than 10% remain, But that is only without human interference. In the last centuries, in particular the last couple decades humans have done many things to our ocean.

For example:

beach development

plastic refuse

pouching

long line

nets

noxious chemicals including oils

which has upped the ante for sea turtles. As a consequence sea turtles survival rate has dropped to one persent. They have overcome many obstacles but this has happened so quickly it has overwhelmed the species. Do everything you can to help this species from becoming extinct!
