I've learned that in the bottle ecosystem it demonstrates how other organisms rely on each other in order to survive, all the time. But, it removes all those human caused factors, it is simple and just gets right down to business. I learned that plants, or even a garden can survive for a very long time just because of other organisms. In conclusion, if other organism die or more populated it WILL affect others.

I've learned that dendrotelmae or water filled tree hollows are an important part of the ecosystem. They are a egg hatching place for some frogs. Some organisms spend all their lives in this aquatic environment. Many species like spiders millipedes macro-invertebrates, and some beetles. They are a stable environment that is hardly affected by climate change. They are more frequent in hardwood because the water stays held in the denser wood. The soil made and found in the dendrotelmae is very rich. It contains some calcium, potassium, magnesium, and sodium. They are isolated from the surrounding environment.

I have learned that coral is an animal and not a plant. Due to the fact that coral does not produce its own food like plants do. Instead coral has thousands of tentacle like arms to grab food from surrounding water. Coral also shares a relationship, called symbiosis, with an algae. Symbiosis is when two organisms relay on each other for survial.

I learned that macro-invertebrates help keep our water clean. The different types of macro-invertebrates give different readings of Ph or other harmful affects that water quality can have on mammals. For example stoneflies are hard to find in rivers, when you do find them that means that you have good water quality.

I learned what anthropogenic means it means caused or produced by humans. I had found out that most cancers are related to lifestyle and environment. I learned that lung cancer is usally caused by smoking.

So far I've learned that Emperor Tamarin's are species that may not be endangered but they are least concerned animals. I found out that there are many kinds of Emperor Tamarin's. These animals have many predators due to their small size. They are omnivorous animals. These animals are being parts of pet trades. Emperor Tamarin's live in a group from 2-15 of them all together. Their tails are reddish-brown while their whole body is greyish-black. Their tails are longer than their whole body is. This animal is quite an interesting and cute animal.

I learned that the Tamiran's population is going down due to deforestation. I have also learn that they live in south america and are a very small mammal. There tail is longer then they are. They are not a major concern on the red list.

We Have Learned So Far that the Tasmanian Tiger Went Extinct Due to European Settlers hunting a killing them because they were killing their live stock in the 1800's .

They eat small Marsupials such as wombats, bats, Kangaroo's etc.. They live in Australia, New Guinea, And Tasmanian. In forests, grass lands, and wet lands.

Me and my partners have been learning about the Tasmanian Tiger that lived about 90 years ago that went extinct. So far we have found out that it has many names and that they could bring the species back if humans wanted to. what caused the mammal to go extinct: the bounties, the hunting for many years, and sicknesses. There's also a Tasmanian Devil that came from the same island as the Tasmanian Tiger, but I'm not quite sure if that's true...

I learned that clear cutting actually helps the shrubs grow witch in turn helps the white tail deer. But when people clear cut to put a development in or a house it messes up there patterns in which the travel throughout the seasons. Then they either leave or stay , and then people complain why they have a bunch of deer crap in there yard!

I know that oil spills are not the most pollutants. That the little drops of oil from a car that get into the water streams that get into the ocean add up more quickly because there are cars all around the world comapired to one oil spill that drops 500,000 gallions or what ever is being caried and and drops it in ONE SPOT not MANY SPOTS like how cars drop little bits of oil but in ONE SPOT and usely gets cleaned up the drops of oil that get droped by cars does not usely get cleaned up. That is why the drops of oil from your car is worse for the ocean then oil spills.

I learned that saltwater crocodiles are the largest crocodiles in the world. They can attack there pray by hiding in the water only showing there nose and eyes then they lunge and can kill withe one snap of the jaws. They spin after biting to tear the flesh to slow down the pray.

They work as a teem to push herds into the water where they are faster and can get the pray faster. crocodile

eat under water. the are not only hunted for there meet and eggs but have the most valuable pelt of any crocodiles. They live up to 70 years and can grow 6 to 7 meters long with a wight of up to 2,000 pounds

The saltwater crocodile is a vulnerable animal. The croc started being hunted in the late 90's due to the fear of the massive creature. The meat is tough and not tasty, they just killed the croc simply because the were scared, and because of their attitudes about avoiding certain swimming areas. Many people used to think that the croc wasnt dangerous, so they would swim in marked no swimming areas, only to have a friend be eaten, or be eaten themselves. The crocodile lays under the mud and blends in with the ground, the croc then waits for a movement in the water, then he attacks. Meaning, the so commonly called "man eater" isnt a man eater at all, simply a animal eating, and getting its food the way it always has. By these humans not following rules and not following no swimming rules, the saltwater crocodiles became known as monsters and predators, instead of carnivors and hunters, this causing the crocs to enter the endangered list, in the last few years the numbers have gone up thanks to conservation groups, their future is not as scarce anymore.

The Eastern Mountain Gorillas are the most endangered species of gorillas in the world. They have been killed off by lose of habitat from humans and also due to the civil wars in Africa they have been being killed in the crossfire. Now there is an estimated 700 of this species left. They are also known as the largest living primates.

I learned that Komodo Dragons can get to 10 ft long and weigh 200 pounds. There are 3,000-5,000 komodos in the world. They use there 2 bacterial glands to partially paralyze/injure there prey and go in for the kill.

I have learned how climate change is affecting penguins And Since the climate is changing the population have decreased. This is because predators have a better chance off catching the penguins due to the ice melting so they don't have a "base".

E.H

2015-04-16 18:03:40 UTC

I have learned that in the past 50 years the penguin population has decreased due to global warming. I have also learned that penguins walk miles and miles just to get to their breeding grounds and with the ice melting its difficult to get there and some penguins don't even make it

I learned that baby sea turtles not only get eaten by land birds when they first hatch, but they also drown when they get into the water because they swim into shrimp nets.

Today in science class I learned that leather back sea turtles live in Newfoundland in the summer so they can feed on the large jellyfish population. But in the winter when it gets too cold for them they migrate as far down as Argentina.
