This week in science #15

 This week in science we went over on what we did through out the year in science class. We did the marshmallow challenge again for the third time to see how much we've grown and how we would work in groups this time. The first time we did the marshmallow challenge this week, the rules was that you weren't allowed to talk to any of your partners. Then we tried it again with being able to talk and it was successfull both times because it didn't fall. We also made a 10th grade into video, that was about what we had acomplished during the 9th grade and somethings that were challenging and successful, we also talked about how much we have grown during the year.
  I learned that I've grown in a way of using team work to solve things and working together to get what we have to do acomplished. I think the 9th grade science was easy because I did the samethings in 8th grade, I feel like we could've learned much more but my class was stuburn. I feel like I could've done better and that is my goal for the 9th grade. I also learned that out of all groups, my team "The Powerangers " did really good for each marshmallow challenge, because what we had built hadn't fell in all 3 challenges. We were the only team in september that had a tower that managed to stay up.

 This week in science we did several different things. We made our own video Marine food chains, we had to build our own Marine digital food chain using videos and post it on to our blog. We used youtube and looked up videos of different consumers, producers and decomposers. We also worked on making up work to help our grade. I worked on week 2, block 2 packet, I went over it and finally understood it.
    This week in science I learned that food chains are actually easy, because its like a pattern and what eats what, and how things grow or become. I also learned that Primary succession is the settlement of vegetation in an area previously uncolonized by organisms. Organism that is first colonize an area known as pioneer organisms.

If we were to leave the spider habitat tanks sealed but removed all of the plants then their would be no oxygen inside of the tank. The plants give oxygen to the spider, Nothing would grow in the tank because there would be no sun or water for anything to grow. The spider needs plants for oxygen to live inside of the tank, the plants gives the spider energy and  food in order for it to live.

 This week in science we learned about symbiotic relationships, energy pyramids , and food chains. We read about symbiotic relationships between different insects and animals, we were given packets that taught how different  energy pyramids and food chains work. It was difficult because I couldn't focus, there was a lot of new words that I haven't heard of before and I was giving up on doing my work. I learned that food chains is a series of organisms interrelated in their feeding habits, the smallest being fed upon by a larger one, which in turn feeds a still larger one. 
    I learned that the food web and food chains are different. They are different because a food chain is a single line of organisms that preceded by something that it consumes and followed is by something that consumes it. The food web which is a food cycle depicts feeding connections which is what eats. The food web goes out every direction pointing to every organism. I also learned that all producers are only plants, and that decomposers could eat both producers and consumers.

 This week in science we did several things that all connected to how make a spiders ecosystem. We visited the park and collected things that we would need for our tanks. We took a rock, two branches, two sticks, a few leafs, an open nut, 3 warms and a couple ants. At the park we took pictures of the most important parts of the ecosystem. I took pictures of the trees,sun,leafs, a water fountain and warms . And after we finished designing our tanks I drew the side view of the tank.

   I learned that the several things that we collect to design an ecosystem for the spider and very much similar to ours. I also learned that our tank needs a few leafs for oxygen just like we need trees for oxygen. When I drew the side view of the tank I seen a warm and it was moving around, I was interested by that because it was far down into the dirt and it was moving around. When I took pictures I learned that the park is very important to our ecosystem because of the living things in it and the plants and trees that make up our environment. I didn't think that the park was important to take care, but I learned that it does because it also helps our ecosystem and how we should take care of it.
