WOW! TO THE CREATOR

-Some hot springs have superheated water.
 The water is under such great pressure as
 it spurts from cracks in the rock, that is hotter
 than boiling. Yet some tiny life-forms called
 bacteria can live in it.


-On a hot, sunny day, the water in a rock pool
 can reach more than 50 degree centigrade. Yet
 in winter it can be almost freezing. Rock pool
 animals must be very tough to withstand such
 extremes.


-The biggest pearl was found in a giant clam and
 was 12 cm across. One oyster had eight small
 pearls inside,


-The giant squid has the largest eyes of any animal.
 They are up to 40 cm across- about the size of a
 soccer ball.
