A Question About The Singer Shakira?

I don’t really follow pop music, and I am not a fan of Shakira. I recently fell asleep with the TV on MTV, and when I woke up, her video about how her hips don’t lie was on.

I looked her up, and was able to find some biographical information. I know she is of mixed heritage. My question is did she study belly dancing?

She has a nice figure, of course, but her stomach is interesting. I have only seen stomachs with that particular kind of muscle structure on belly dancers. I have seen plenty of music videos with girls showing their tummies, but I don’t recall seeing any other dancers with that particular shape. It’s kind of hard to describe, but it is an unusual kind of muscular development. Could you please enlighten me if you know more about her?

Thank you.

Reproduction and embryonic development
(1) Reproductive cell formation and fertilization
Kinds of reproduction
Gametogenesis and fertilization in animals
Gametogenesis, fertilization, and embryogenesis in plants
(2) Mechanism of animal development

I have no knowledge in Biology at all, whats the best approach for such a huge subject?
and websites/videos/recommended textbooks or techniques are needed.
(i have about 3 months to study all of it, and another 3 months for Chemistry)

it’s for the EJU test in Japan.

Thanks a lot!

The Muscle Man

In an economic time period where working class men have lost a feeling of empowerment because of a loss of control over their labour, the media has been able to provide men a way to control their masculinity and achieve masculinity—through the development of physical strength and size
Advertisements and media exploit men’s feelings of inadequacy to create an illusion that masculinity is connected and equated to muscularity and physical strength
Muscular images promote the idea of power and strength to give men a sense of control. Men are portrayed as succeeding with women or gaining acceptance because of their physical qualities in film and advertising
Muscular sport icons validate specific products and create the impression that masculinity is achieved through use of such products (for example, antiperspirants, aftershaves, and health supplements)
Creates the impression that men who do not achieve these ideals of muscularity are effeminate

The Heroic Man

Cultural heroes in film promote a masculinity where violence is idealized
Film icons such as The Terminator, Rambo and Jack Bauer create, and popularize, masculine ideals which features violent tactics, use of weapons and physical force
Masculinity is seen to be defined by a lack of fear of consequences for self
Creates a message that heroism and risk taking behavior is important in the formation of a masculine identity

Not a Woman

Masculine behavior is defined in media in opposition to femininity. Masculine traits are valued by insinuating that such behavior is not feminine. Men are therefore presented in media as impervious to pain and emotion. The idea that “boys don’t cry” is prevalent in film and media.
This notion accounts for the increase of violent and aggressive characters in video games, cartoons, and children’s toys
Women are used in film images as being fearful of male force
Communicates a message that men who do not repress what are considered feminine qualities, such as shows of emotion or pain, are weak or “unmanly.”

Man as Warrior

Advertisements and film also create the notion that violence and aggression are innate genetic traits
This notion again constructs a view that aggression and violence are important characteristics of masculinity that have defined men since time immemorial
Gives the impression that men have always been brutal and aggressive, that these violent tendencies cannot be changed.
For example, historical figures in film such as Conan and Maximus are used to associate men with masculine traits of violence
Historical characters such as pirates, warriors, and cowboys are often used to market products because they symbolize male virility and power
The message is communicated that men who do not utilize these primal instincts are less than men and lacking in masculine character

What do you think of this description?

Can I turn this into a superhero story? Or will it do better in an average teen fiction? It is a character background. Forgive me if it offends-i didn’t mean it to. And is the character to young to be bysexual? And can he still be considered by even if he hasn’t been with a guy and has a crush on a girl?

Character Development:

Main Characters (5):

1.Erie Smith, 16, was born August 2, 1995 in Jarrel City. His parents are Edith (36) and Max (37). His mom left them when he was 10. His dad kicked him out a month ago when he confessed he was bysexual. His mom (in a relationship with Aden Dice) is a workaholic scientist in GFT Labs. His single dad is an english professor at Jarrel Community College. He moved in with his single aunt Mia (29) a week ago, after staying with his friend Seven for three weeks. Mia is a nurse at Mercy Care Hospital. His mom lives in a small house, his dad lives in an apartment, and his aunt lives in a condo. He has a female cat named Mitchi. He goes to Launder High School. He had three male friends and female friends. Devan-became popular, Nani- moved to a diff. city, Shauna- became a trouble maker, Fizz- dropped out, Julian-became homophobic. So they all split from eachother and him. He has never had a girlfriend. But has had a crush on Cecelia (Cece) for a year now buti she thinks he is a loser. He draws and skates. His favorites: lemon juice, pizza, sour&spicey dots candy, rock and r&b music, yuki pets cartoon, Zombie Attack the movie, Uma vs. Dark Forces video game, UCircuit clothes shop, Never Die by Tyme, Dream Big by Haylee Start, colors blue and black, Lasagna, Emerald Dragopn by Krey Chris, basketball and baseball(sports), catsp and dinosaurs.
