Characteristics of Linen. Linen is a type of fabric made with flax fibers. Flax fibers are more rigid than cottons or silks, endowing linen fabric with a lack of elasticity and its propensity to wrinkle. Linen can be made using a multitude of weaves, which will determine the texture and weight of the fabric.
Seagulls live near the sea because their main food is fish. When bird evolution exploded after the dinosaurs had died out, they quickly (in geological terms) adapted to fill all the ecological niches made available by the previous extinction event and one of those was the sea.
Sea lions can swim faster by gliding on the surface of the water. How long do sea lions live? The average life span of the sea lion is about 20 years, but some have been recorded to live into their 30âs. We can determine their age by counting growth layers in their teeth, just like the rings in a tree trunk. What do sea lions eat? Sea lions eat many things. They like lots of different fish, including anchovies, herring salmon and sardines. They can also eat squid and octopus. Sea lions have 34 to 38 teeth, which they use to catch and tear their food. They donât use them to chew their food though, they swallow it whole. How large are sea lions? Pups (baby sea lions) weigh about 13-20 pounds and are 2.5 feet long when they are born. Females can weigh between 200 and 400 pounds and can be up to 6.5 feet long. Male sea lions tend to be larger, weighing about 600 to 800 pounds and can be up to 8 feet long.
