Points to discuss:

  • What interactions between these animals did you notice? (For example, think about these various forms of interactions that you have been studying for your project: producers, consumers, decomposers, predation, commensalism, parasitism, mutualism) I noticed that all of the animals feed on each other to live.
  • Why do animals migrate? (What is occurring within their environment that triggers this response?) Animals migrate because of the changes in the weather and food. Most of them can't survive because they are not fat. Being fat is important for them because it's to cold there and they use their fat like a coat.
  • How do animals know when it's right to reproduce? What conditions are they looking for?  They reproduce when the weather is getting hotter, when it's not so cold because, when they reproduce in cold the new born one wouldn't be so fat and could die. If they reproduce in summer they would get fat and be ready for winter.
  • When do most large animals reproduce? What does it depend on? Most large animals reproduce in the same time as the others because of weather.
  • What adaptations did the animals exhibit in the polar region? (For example: body shape, appendages, wing span, food, coloration, stream-lined bodies, teeth, beaks, blubber, fur, group formations, hooks on tentacles, etc...) Their body shape is huge, most of them eat krill for food, their colors are dark just the color of the bird was white and the bird had enormously long wings. The animals have big and sharp teeth for food.
  • What various (breeding) mating rituals do species have? ???
  • How do they ensure survival of their species? (Feeding, reproduction-production rates/birth rates/death risks, growth, etc... You can see it by going and measuring and taking tracks of the expiriment
  • How did this presentation provide examples of what we have been studying? It showed an example when we were watching survival how animals fought with nature and these animals in Arctic and Antarctic fought with cold weather.
  • What are you wondering about now? I am wondering about if those animals live in a different place, like much more hotter or maybe in an island.
  • How did Mr. Watts help tie in everything that we have been discussing during this unit? He showed us relations between animals in cold place. How they survive and fight for food.

When plants cry for help ,predator bugs answer

The topic of this is all about plants wanting help. They have a very clever method.The method is when caterpillars start nibbling on wild tobacco plants,they give a "help us" with their saliva cues. This is interesting because i learned the sign in plants when they want help.This took place in Jena,Germany in 27th August.I found this interesting because it was a very different method of wanting help and that is why I wrote about this.

Survival

      You can survive in any climate by having sight,hear and taste.These are the most important things to survive.3 forms of being born is egg lying, live barrying aband marsupilion. Adaptations tactic that animals use to survive are: The fox used playing dead so it can catch the rabbit.And some other animals stay still and hide and jump out when they get close. Fox also uses this tactic.
    I learned that its very hard for animals to survive and find food and water.They need to be very careful. It was interesting the part part when it shows the turtles getting eaten by birds.I learned also that.

Questions

Organisms has basic needs.Animals need water and food.Plants need air,water,nutrients and light.Organisms can just survive in environments in which their needs can be met.The two parts are habitat and environment.The levels of organisms is organisms,population,ecosystems and community.Different kind of organisms are in different habitats because they have the things to survive in that habitat.It is also about food chain.They will repair by collecting food and trying to move to a safer place for food and water.

Science Goals

To learn and improve at the end of the year.
Have a good time improve some skills through out the year.
Make experiments to learn things by fun and interesting.
