Harry Potter

Harry Potter is my favorite movie. It is magical story about Harry Potter, an orphan boy, played by Daniel Jacob Radcliffe. Harry Potter lived with his aunt’s family. He has never known story about his parents and his background until he was 17 years old. After he receives his mail from Hogwarts, which is witch school, invite him to study there, he understands exactly that he is a witch. Moreover, he knows that his parent is killed by Lord Voldemort. In addition, Lord Voldemort will be back soon to kill him. He chooses to come to study in Hogwarts because it is safety place for him. During going to Hogwarts, he meets two friends Ron (played by Rupert Alexander Lloyd Grint) and Hermione (played by Emma Charlotte Duerre Watson) in the train. After that, they become his best friends. Harry potter has a lot of experience in Hogwarts. His entire story reflects a relationship between friends, leader of himself, and emotion of normal person. I like the graphic design and the background in this movie.

The different thing Between Goat and Sheep

When I was young, I was always confused how to separate goat and sheep. Since I studied biology, I had known how they differ. Even though both goat and sheep eat vegetable, live on land, and have same products as milk, meat or leather. They still have some different thing which we can identify through their behavior, physics, and biology.
Behavior is the first thing which shows how they are individual BY NAKE EYE. Goats usually like to eat leaves at high position of the trees, or they will eat climbing and woody plants. Moreover, they are very independent, curious and inquisitive. It is normal if they stay alone at grassland. On the other hand, sheep would like to eat leave on the small trees or grasses on the ground. They are sluggish to do everything and scared to stay alone. They always stay together in the huge group to protect them from hunter. These behaviors show the basic personality which is individual. These help us to know what goat or sheep look like at the first point.
Physics is the second thing which shows how goat and sheep are distinct. Both of them have different details in their body such as tail, hair, and horn. Goat’s tail is long and always goes up. It has two curls or straight horns. Furthermore, goat’s hair has never comb because its hair is so straight. In contrast, sheep’s tail always goes down. If we focus on size, sheep’s tail is shorter than goat’s tail because it is cut. Moreover, sheep’s hair usually is cut because it is too curly and very hard to divide by itself. In fact, sheep has two horns as goat, but some types of sheep have curly horn or charm hornless. Physics is the normal thing shows how both goats and sheep are different at the second point.
Biology is the third thing which shows how goat and sheep aren’t similar by their heredity. Even though they are the same family of mammal, both of the m are still different detail such as genus, chromosomes, and voice. Goat is a group of genus Capra Hircus. It has 6o chromosomes, and the sound of its voice is like “Maa”. On the other hand, sheep is a group of genus Ovis Aris. It has 54 chromosomes and the sound of its voice is like “Baa”. Biology shows deeply how unique family they are in third point.
Both goat and sheep look similar, but they still have some various details which we can divide them by three point. First is behavior so that I can see easily by looking at them. Second is physics which it shows how different in their qualities. Third is biology that shows extremely in original position. Now, I will know immediately what animal I see. It is goat or sheep after I contrast them.
