Skofnung
Skofnung (Old Norse: Skǫfnungr) is in medieval Icelandic literature the sword of legendary Danish king Hrólf Kraki.

Berserker
In the Old Norse written corpus, berserkers (Old Norse: berserkir) were Scandinavian warriors who were said to have fought in a trance-like fury, a characteristic which later gave rise to the modern English adjective berserk 'furiously violent or out of control'. Berserkers are attested to in numerous Old Norse sources.
1,3-Bisphosphoglyceric acid
1,3-Bisphosphoglyceric acid (1,3-Bisphosphoglycerate or 1,3BPG) is a three-carbon organic molecule present in most, if not all, living organisms. It primarily exists as a metabolic intermediate in both glycolysis during respiration and the Calvin cycle during photosynthesis. 1,3BPG is a transitional stage between glycerate 3-phosphate and glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate during the fixation/reduction of CO2. 1,3BPG is also a precursor to 2,3-bisphosphoglycerate which is formed in the  Luebering–Rapoport shunt of glycolysis in red blood cells.

Three-carbon molecule
Three-carbon molecules are based on a skeleton made from three carbon atoms. They may be in a chain, or cycles. C3 hydrocarbons are usually gases, they are inflammable, and may be harmful to humans and the environment. The CAS registry number for three-carbon hydrocarbons is 68606-26-8.
Hydrocarbons that include three atoms are:

Propane C3H8

Propene C3H6

Cyclopropane C3H6

propyne C3H4

Cyclopropene C3H4

Propadiene C3H4

Cyclopropenylidene C3H2

Cyclopropyne C3H2

Hoplias microcephalus
Hoplias microcephalus is a species of trahiras. It is a tropical, benthopelagic freshwater fish which is known to inhabit the São Francisco River in Brazil. Males can reach a maximum length of 35.6 cm (14.0 in).

H. microcephalus was originally described by Louis Agassiz in 1829, under the genus Erythrinus. It was listed as a valid species of Hoplias by O.T. Oyakawa in 2003.

Freshwater fish
Freshwater fish are fish species that spend some or all of their lives in bodies of fresh water such as rivers, lakes, ponds and inland wetlands, where the salinity is less than 1.05%. These environments differ from marine habitats in many ways, especially the difference in levels of osmolarity. To survive in fresh water, fish need a range of physiological adaptations.

41.24% of all known species of fish are found in fresh water. This is primarily due to the rapid speciation that the scattered habitats make possible. When dealing with ponds and lakes, one might use the same basic models of speciation as when studying island biogeography.
