This Year in Science - 10th Grade Intro Video

TWIS #14

This week in science we read an article about habitat loss.  We had to search on youtube a marine life chain videos and order them.  My class and I read about the HIPPO dilema and yesterday May 23, We made posters about wind.

the poster above is what my group and i created yesterday on wind base's

This week in science learned that HIPPO stands for Habitat loss; when people destroy animals habitat Introduced Species; a new species moving into someone else's home.  Pollution; oil spills kill animals, acid rain destroy forest, when human impact on mother nature. The last P stans for Pollution growth: their are more people being born than dying and O represents Over-consumption; one american uses as much energy as 422 people in ethiopia.  I also learned that wind is an renewable engery source

Marine Food Chain

 THE MARINE FOOD CHAINNNNN

TWIS 13

If we were to leave the spider's habitat tanks sealed but removed all of the plants the spider would not serve they wouldnt get enough oxygen because plants give the spiders oxygen but take in carbon dioxide. The plants need the process of photosynthesis for their glucose. 

This week in science 12

This week in science my classmates and I made a cellar spider booklet to keep some information n there. We also watched a Brainpop video and then took a quiz after it. through out the week we also worked on worksheets on the 7 kingdoms, food chains and roles on the ecosystem. We also finally got our cellar spider on monday we had to do even more research on them to put the information on the booklets.

 This week in science i learned that cellar spiders live in quiet and dark places such as garages, caves and houses. Cellar spiders have harmful venmon in them but if they bite you, it wouldnt be a danger to you because there mouths are to weak to inject throw the human skin. What i learned from the brainpop video was that all living and nonlivng things are all connected together because they live in the same ecosystem. I also learned that abiotic means non living and biotic means living. I learned that Saprophytes is just a fancy word for decompsers. Another interesting thing I learned was about the symbiotic relationships and that symbiotic means living together. One more thing I learned this week in science was that just one disapearance in the food chain is extremly affective to the entire food chain.
