Although some sea turtles eat other animals the ones raised in an aquarium such as the one photographed, eat plants. Although some turtles in aquariums have a diet with some meats involved. ]]> 2017-11-20 16:32:20 UTC https://padlet.com/amontedy/35dlfdl7bys6/wish/208787192 amontedy https://padlet.com/amontedy/35dlfdl7bys6/wish/208788538 A heterotroph is an organism that can't produce their own food, therefore can't perform photosynthesis. That means that a jelly fish is a heterotroph because it doesn't produce its own food and it needs to eat its energy. The jelly fish will eat the phytoplankton in the ocean and use the phytoplankton as energy, almost in the same way that it would gain energy by performing photosynthesis. ]]> 2017-11-20 16:35:17 UTC https://padlet.com/amontedy/35dlfdl7bys6/wish/208788538 amontedy https://padlet.com/amontedy/35dlfdl7bys6/wish/208791316 In this trophic pyramid is shows that that the grass, a producer is the most abundant and gets consumed by a grasshopper. The grasshopper then gets eat by the frog which gets eat by a snake which gets eaten by a hawk. Every time that an organism gets consumed it only collects 10% of the energy of the organism that it is eating had. Therefore by the time that the hawk eats the grasshopper, it only gets 1 kg of the energy compared to the 10,000 kg that the grass had. ]]> 2017-11-20 16:40:55 UTC https://padlet.com/amontedy/35dlfdl7bys6/wish/208791316 amontedy https://padlet.com/amontedy/35dlfdl7bys6/wish/208791792 This lobster, if it was still living and in the ocean, is a major example of omnivore. This is an omnivore because they eat plants and other animals on the ocean floor. They eat the easily accessed food that they can find and they will eat whatever is easily accessed by them. ]]> 2017-11-20 16:41:55 UTC https://padlet.com/amontedy/35dlfdl7bys6/wish/208791792 amontedy https://padlet.com/amontedy/35dlfdl7bys6/wish/208793112 This mushroom is an example of a decomposer because decomposers breaks down dead plants animals and poop. They are needed to break down carbon and nitrogen and bring them back to the cycle. If they didn't do this the nitrogen and carbon that could be recycled would just be wasted. ]]> 2017-11-20 16:44:45 UTC https://padlet.com/amontedy/35dlfdl7bys6/wish/208793112 amontedy https://padlet.com/amontedy/35dlfdl7bys6/wish/208793215 An abiotic factor is something that can kill off a species if they don't have what is necessary. The sun is a major abiotic factor  because without it being present or when it isn't as strong as it needs to be animals and plants will die off. For example in the winter when the sun is not as prominent animals have a tough time photosynthesizing so they end up dying because they can't make their own food.]]> 2017-11-20 16:44:58 UTC https://padlet.com/amontedy/35dlfdl7bys6/wish/208793215 amontedy https://padlet.com/amontedy/35dlfdl7bys6/wish/208794862 The lake the is photographed in this is a major part of the water cycle. The lake is a major location for where the surface runoff runs goes. When the water from the surface runoff gets the lake, the water in the take is soon after evaporated and then precipitated and the cycle continued through the cycle. ]]> 2017-11-20 16:48:31 UTC https://padlet.com/amontedy/35dlfdl7bys6/wish/208794862 amontedy https://padlet.com/amontedy/35dlfdl7bys6/wish/208796083 An immense amount of carbon that is recycled in the carbon cycle can be found through trees. The trees in an area perform photosynthesis, and while doing this the tree takes in carbon from the atmosphere and produces more carbon that is released back into the atmosphere to be used again in another part of the carbon cycle. ]]> 2017-11-20 16:51:06 UTC https://padlet.com/amontedy/35dlfdl7bys6/wish/208796083 amontedy https://padlet.com/amontedy/35dlfdl7bys6/wish/208797854 Cars have a major effect on the carbon cycle. The combustion that are car lets of ends up being moved back into the atmosphere where it can be reused through the carbon cycle forever. Combustion is a negative effect on the carbon cycle and is very dominant in major cities with lots of cars moving in and out very often. ]]> 2017-11-20 16:54:42 UTC https://padlet.com/amontedy/35dlfdl7bys6/wish/208797854 amontedy https://padlet.com/amontedy/35dlfdl7bys6/wish/208799712 The weather in the atmosphere affects nitrogen fixation in the nitrogen cycle. Nitrogen fixation is the break down of the gas molecule or nitrogen into the nitrogen compound that can be found in the soil. If there were snow on the ground may speed up the nitrogen cycle because that will lead to the death of plants and animals much sooner then it should be. ]]> 2017-11-20 16:58:29 UTC https://padlet.com/amontedy/35dlfdl7bys6/wish/208799712 amontedy https://padlet.com/amontedy/35dlfdl7bys6/wish/209095551 Photographed here is a recycling bin. When people recycle their everyday goods such as a plastic water bottle has a positive effect on an environment because the plastic is being reused but if it wasn't being recycled it would be wasted. ]]> 2017-11-21 14:11:56 UTC https://padlet.com/amontedy/35dlfdl7bys6/wish/209095551
