I need help creating a thesis and an outline on Lycosidae ( wolf spider). Prepare this assignment according to the guidelines found in the APA Style Guide. An abstract is required. The orthognath chelicerae is considered to be the pleiomorphic condition of all spiders. Most of the currently existing spiders belong to the suborder opisthteles, characterized by the absence of segmentation of abdomen and nervous system. It is made up of the 1) baboon spiders and its allies (Mygalomorphae) and 2) Aranaeomorphae, which is referred to as true or labidognath spiders. The apomorphic aranaemorphs have a specialized web, in which piriform silk is added to stabilize the line. In addition, these spiders have female fertilization ducts. All of these characteristivs are synapomorphies,that make Aranaeomorphae monophyletic (Coddington, 2005). One of the Aranaeomorphs are the lycosoids, together with Aranaeoidea and Salticidae. For wolf spiders, the synapomorph was thought to be the grate-shaped tapetum, a reflective layer within the eye that increases sensitivity (Coddington, 2005). Aside from eye arrangements, other important characteristics are 1) lack of a retrolateral tibial apophysis (RTA) on the male pedipalp, 2) egg sac carried on spinnerets of females, and 3) young carried on specialised setae on the dorsal surface of the mother’s abdomen (Dondale, 1986. Griswold, 1993). Although Lycosidae and Mesothelae are considered as “big spiders” it is a polyphyletic group put together based on convergent features (Coddington, 2005). The relationships of the abovementioned groups are summarized in figure 1. The Lycosoid families are Ctenidae, Lycosidae, Miturgidae, Oxyopidae, Pisauridae, Trechaleidae, and Zoropsidae (Coddington, 2005). Lycosidae, together with Pisechridae, Pisauridae, Oxyopidae and Ctenidae, belong to the order Lycopsoidea. Based on the 12S and 16S rDNA sequences analyzed by maximum parsimony and neighbor joining analysis, Lycosidae, Psechridae, Pisauridae and Oxyopidae are clustered together within the Lycosoidea clade (Fig. 2). Also, the Lycosidae-Pisauridae pair formed a sister group to the clade of Oxyopidae and Psechridae (Fang, et al., 2000). Currently, spiders belonging to Lycosidae are the fourth largest spider family, and these spiders are found worldwide (Platnick, 2002). They are seen worldwide, partly because they disperse as far as hundreds of kilometers from the zone site by ballooning on long buoyant silk strands. According to Wunderlich (2004), these wolf spiders have a relatively short evolutionary history, compared to other existing insects. Lycosidae are observed to be abundant in grasslands, whether tropical or temperate, and scanty in dense forests. They seem to prefer open habitats with low vegetation, since the abovementioned observation is true even in Africa, which supposedly has the highest population of wolf spiders (Jocque, Samu & Bird, 2005). They were even seen to be abundant in savannas and herb-dense vegetation such as swamp (Warui, et al., 2005). They hide in shrubby vegetation in moments of inactivity. In fact, Pisauridae are found to be rare or absent in pitfalls, and are being caught by pan traps and Malaise traps. These predators eat arthropods, usually insects (Jocque & Alderweireldt, 2005). This preference may have been a cause or a product of their evolutionary history. Since the earliest fossil record of Lycosidae was dated back to Miocene period, during which time the grassland had also been spreading, it is believed that these wolf spiders co-evolved with grasslands (Penney, 2004), and adapted to this environment by losing typical hunter adaptations, such as grip even on smooth surfaces. Since wolf spiders are hunters, they have lost the third claw, which is common among web-dwelling spiders (Jocque & Alderweireldt, 2005). They also do not have claw tufts, which should have provided perfect grip on smooth surfaces, as is what happens in Ctenidae (Kesel, Martin & Seidl, 2003). However, since grasses and herbs have rough surfaces, claw tuft is not necessary for good grip. References Dondale, C. D. (1986). The subfamilies of wolf spiders (Araneae: Lycosidae).

Hi, I am looking for someone to write an article on computer antivirus Paper must be at least 750 words. Please, no plagiarized work! One of the most notable disadvantages of using a free antivirus is the lack of technical support from companies developing them. Whereas the majority of paid antivirus companies provide some online and phone support to their clients, freeware users normally must look after themselves. Some freeware providers such as Avast provide email support that is sometimes said to be ineffective and slow. Considering how close both categories of products are with regard to effectiveness and speed, the two most fundamental elements are customer support and software features. Given some exceptions, a paid product has better customer support systems and better-enhanced features as compared to free computer antivirus software. Comparing Top Paid Computer Antivirus vs. Top Free Computer Antivirus Avast Free Antivirus Software Avast, Free Antivirus combines highly rated all round freeware virus detection with a well-designed and speedy package. Avast has an easy installation process, minimum effect on the performance of the system as well as smooth interface design. Studies have shown that in customary signature-based virus tests, Avast scored highly by detecting approximately 95% of sampled malware, which according to analysts is neither bad nor good. The software additionally recorded a decent performance when tasked with the detection of real-world viruses by successfully detecting and, blocking completely about 75% of virus attacks and partially thwarting about 5% of virus attacks, a performance that was categorized as average.
