Arboreal locomotion a method known as parachuting, such as "Rhacophorus" (a "flying frog" species) that has adapted toe membranes allowing it to fall more slowly after leaping from trees. Many species of snake are highly arboreal, and some have evolved specialized musculature for this habitat. While moving in arboreal habitats, snakes move slowly along bare branches using a specialized form of concertina locomotion, but when secondary branches emerge from the branch being moved on, snakes use lateral undulation, a much faster mode. As a result, snakes perform best on small perches in cluttered environments, while limbed organisms seem to do best on
Underwater habitat depth of approximately 12 m. A concept design by internationally recognized conceptual designer and futurist Phil Pauley. The Sub-Biosphere 2 is the original self sustainable underwater habitat designed for aquanauts, tourism and oceanographic life sciences and longterm human, plant and animal habitation. SBS2 is a seed bank with eight Living Biomes to allow human, plant and fresh water interaction, powered and controlled by the Central Support Biome which monitors the life systems from within its own operations facility. Underwater habitat Underwater habitats are underwater structures in which people can live for extended periods and carry out most of the basic
