An animal that adapts to the environment for survival whether it be camouflage or a type of attack is called the adaptation of an animal. In this picture, this chameleon has changed his skin color to fit his cage full of green leaves. He shows an example of the adaptation by hiding himself from the outside eye and change his appearance to look like a leaf just like how he would do against predators in the wild.]]> 2017-08-18 03:43:59 UTC https://padlet.com/mcheon/n63jvfbjgeni/wish/181565625 mcheon https://padlet.com/mcheon/n63jvfbjgeni/wish/181565641 Plants also adapt to the surrounding environment so that they may best survive and populate the land. The adaptation of a plant is the changing to survive in surrounding environment. At Camp Eagle, I have come across this cactus where the weather is very dry and scorching hot. However, cactus have adapted to the desert like environment through their needle like leaves and ability to conserve water and stay alive in places where other plants would wither and die.]]> 2017-08-18 03:44:15 UTC https://padlet.com/mcheon/n63jvfbjgeni/wish/181565641 mcheon https://padlet.com/mcheon/n63jvfbjgeni/wish/181565647 Altruistic behavior is the sacrifice of one's safety to better the survival of the race as a whole. In this picture, there are multiple ants that are crawling around in the ground. Ants are an extreme form of altruistic behavior for the working ants sacrifice their reproduction system to help the race of the ants have workers and be able to function. They sacrifice their ability to reproduce in order that the queen will be able to thrive with an army of ants.]]> 2017-08-18 03:44:20 UTC https://padlet.com/mcheon/n63jvfbjgeni/wish/181565647 mcheon https://padlet.com/mcheon/n63jvfbjgeni/wish/181565848 Batesian mimicry is a form of defense of harmless animals or plants that change to look like poisonous and dangerous ones to protect itself from predators. These Black Perc have become to look like anemones which they live in so that they are camouflaged and so that the bigger fishes wouldn't try to eat them for the real anemones would sting the fishes.]]> 2017-08-18 03:47:16 UTC https://padlet.com/mcheon/n63jvfbjgeni/wish/181565848 mcheon https://padlet.com/mcheon/n63jvfbjgeni/wish/181565959 Long day plants are plants that needs to be in the sun for a longer period of time to bloom. I took a picture of this lettuce because a lettuce is a long day plant for it needs to be exposed to the sun for a longer period of time. ]]> 2017-08-18 03:48:40 UTC https://padlet.com/mcheon/n63jvfbjgeni/wish/181565959 mcheon https://padlet.com/mcheon/n63jvfbjgeni/wish/181566093 This is a pair of love bugs that are exhibiting mating behavior. Mating usually happens between a male and a female same organism that uses the fertile eggs of the female and the sperm of the male to reproduce the likings of themselves. Although mating behavior differs from animals and insects, love bugs stick their butts together and fly. These love bugs usually are short lived and they lay their eggs and soon after die. The mating usually takes hours and the male dies after mating and the female drags the male until she lays her eggs. This picture is an example of a female love bug dragging the male to look for a place to lay her eggs.]]> 2017-08-18 03:50:26 UTC https://padlet.com/mcheon/n63jvfbjgeni/wish/181566093 mcheon https://padlet.com/mcheon/n63jvfbjgeni/wish/181566416 This pesticide is an example of a parasite. Parasitism is a practice of an organism that latches onto another organism where they share a nonmutual relationship and the organism that is attached steals or sometimes kills the organism that they are attached to. In this picture, there is a pesticide on a tree that is spreading and it steals the sunlight from the trees' leaves and is choking the life out of the plants. ]]> 2017-08-18 03:54:33 UTC https://padlet.com/mcheon/n63jvfbjgeni/wish/181566416 mcheon https://padlet.com/mcheon/n63jvfbjgeni/wish/181566512 Bacteria is a single celled organism that lives practically everywhere. Bacteria has changed to adapt to nearly every place in this world. Everyone thinks that bacteria is some kind of disease that is harmful for you but in fact, that would be very false. This picture of the boys bathroom floor goes to show that bacteria are just one celled organism that lives on bathroom floors to the inside of your digestive system.]]> 2017-08-18 03:55:38 UTC https://padlet.com/mcheon/n63jvfbjgeni/wish/181566512 mcheon https://padlet.com/mcheon/n63jvfbjgeni/wish/181566679 Predation is the preying of a organism to make another organism its food. The hunter eats its prey and use it for food. Predation is always visible from the dragonflies catching gnats to lions catching gazelles. I inserted a picture of a snake because a snake goes well with the name of the predator. Snake not only almost eats anything but they are also hunted by many things. Snake in this picture is seeking for food as it was moving and smelling the air with its tongue for any unfortunate mouse it would encounter.]]> 2017-08-18 03:57:13 UTC https://padlet.com/mcheon/n63jvfbjgeni/wish/181566679 mcheon https://padlet.com/mcheon/n63jvfbjgeni/wish/181566785 Territorial behavior is the markings of an animal to show other organisms that this piece of land is taken and to show that this land is occupied. Dogs signify their territory by peeing on the sides of trees of their ground or manure so that they leave a smell of themselves so other dogs are aware. I inserted a picture of my dog for before he was paralyzed, he would always sleep in my bed and pee on the foot of my bed to signify that this was where he always slept. And no matter how long we tried to fix his habit, he always came back to mark his territory. ]]> 2017-08-18 03:58:15 UTC https://padlet.com/mcheon/n63jvfbjgeni/wish/181566785 mcheon https://padlet.com/mcheon/n63jvfbjgeni/wish/181566891 Hydrogen Bonding is the pull of Hydrogen on either Nitrogen, Oxygen, and Florine in an liquid solution. It is stronger than the dipole-dipole attraction and is one of the strongest intermolecular pulls within liquid solutions In this Chick-fil-A drink cup, I was drinking water out of it and just regular tap water has hydrogen bonding for there is hydrogen bonding in water itself. ]]> 2017-08-18 03:59:26 UTC https://padlet.com/mcheon/n63jvfbjgeni/wish/181566891 mcheon https://padlet.com/mcheon/n63jvfbjgeni/wish/181569802 Species are the different categories of the same kind of type of animal. For instance, there is numerous species of fishes around the world. There are freshwater fishes, saltwater fishes, and much bigger fishes such as the sharks and the Goliath groupers. Just going to a pet store that sells fish, we could see the different kinds of fishes that all developed and adapted to the environment that they were exposed to. I inserted this picture of fishes for even though they were all the same fish, they still exhibited different colors and different characteristics which fascinated me to wonder how this could have happened without intelligent design. ]]> 2017-08-18 04:43:53 UTC https://padlet.com/mcheon/n63jvfbjgeni/wish/181569802 mcheon https://padlet.com/mcheon/n63jvfbjgeni/wish/181569824 Cell Wall is the outside layer of plant cells which acts to give shape to the organism and to protect it from infectious components. Cell Wall is missing from animal organisms and is only in plant organisms and in some bacteria. I chose to take a picture of this packages of baby spinach not only because spinach is a plant and contains cell walls but the plastic wrap that contains the product also works like a cell wall in that it protects the spinach from outside components.]]> 2017-08-18 04:44:15 UTC https://padlet.com/mcheon/n63jvfbjgeni/wish/181569824 mcheon https://padlet.com/mcheon/n63jvfbjgeni/wish/181569858 Chloroplasts are in plants and this is the part of the plant where photosynthesis happens. Chloroplasts allow the plants to produce food in this way through the use of sunlight and this allows the plant to grow and be able to produce ATP within its system so that it can function and survive. I inserted this moth ball in this description because usually numerous people mistake plants as only in ground plants but I wanted to point out the plants that have chloroplasts that live in the water and still make ATP and photosynthesis in the water. These are only present in plant organism cells. ]]> 2017-08-18 04:44:54 UTC https://padlet.com/mcheon/n63jvfbjgeni/wish/181569858 mcheon https://padlet.com/mcheon/n63jvfbjgeni/wish/181570019 Estivation is the practice of going to sleep to reduce the spending of energy for a long period of time that is either too cold or too hot. Estivation usually happens in places where it is too cold or too hot. I inserted a picture of a squirrel for it should go into estivation. These squirrels in hot or cold environments would store acorns or seeds and go into hibernation. Because it is harder for them to find food, they minimize their energy usage to store up fat and go into hibernation or estivation.]]> 2017-08-18 04:47:57 UTC https://padlet.com/mcheon/n63jvfbjgeni/wish/181570019 mcheon https://padlet.com/mcheon/n63jvfbjgeni/wish/181570235 Niche is an organisms part in the environment it is currently in. This tree plays a huge part in the environment. The niche that this tree plays in this environment is that it offers shade to the organisms to beat the scorch heat of the sun. It also gives shelter to the animals or insects that are in the environment and gives housing to the ants that live or move inside the bark. This tree behaves like the house in the natural environment for the other animals.]]> 2017-08-18 04:51:38 UTC https://padlet.com/mcheon/n63jvfbjgeni/wish/181570235 mcheon https://padlet.com/mcheon/n63jvfbjgeni/wish/181570299 The population is the number of organism in a place or an area. This is a picture of mouse in a cage where they reproduce. I inserted a picture of this for I could not insert one of Mrs. Majors cages. The mouse population in her tank was overflowing from time to time and the population was too much for the mouse that they started eating the young and the weak ones. They controlled their population by sorting out the strongest one. The population goes on to show the dangers the species faces for if it increases, it is no danger but only if it decreases.]]> 2017-08-18 04:52:52 UTC https://padlet.com/mcheon/n63jvfbjgeni/wish/181570299 mcheon https://padlet.com/mcheon/n63jvfbjgeni/wish/181570361 Polymorphism is the shaping of an organism's skin to be camouflaged and hidden. Predators and preys both obtain this for it best fits them to be able to survive in the wild. That is why most of the animals match the colors of their surroundings. This is a ball python and it is from Africa. Its colors match the wood and the natural surroundings of their hometown of being in the wood or the forest. They use this to hide from their preys to sneak up and consume them or to hide from lions or any other predators out in the wilderness.]]> 2017-08-18 04:53:59 UTC https://padlet.com/mcheon/n63jvfbjgeni/wish/181570361 mcheon https://padlet.com/mcheon/n63jvfbjgeni/wish/181570366 Evaporative cooling is the cooling of the surface of the skin using the sweats that come in response to the over heating of the skin. After the sweating happens, the wetness cools the skin off by lowering the skin temperature with the sweat particles. As it dries, the skin cools off and the sweat is dried. I was driving with windows down and I was at a stop sign. I realized that my arm was getting to be very sweaty. I took a picture of my arm for an evaporative cooling was happening to my very own body as I adventured the world. I quickly began to feel cooler as the breeze chilled my skin.]]> 2017-08-18 04:54:08 UTC https://padlet.com/mcheon/n63jvfbjgeni/wish/181570366 mcheon https://padlet.com/mcheon/n63jvfbjgeni/wish/181570412 Inflammation is the process of the body healing from cuts and wounds on the body. However, I took a picture of my brother's pimple because it will also become a inflammation. My brother popped this pimple and it soon became into a scar where the body bad to treat this like a cut for it penetrated the skin and allowed for the healing to take place with the closing of the wound. I thought that looking at inflammation in a different point of view show how common this really is and that without inflammation and the process of our body healing, even a little pimple could be infected and be stated dangerous]]> 2017-08-18 04:55:09 UTC https://padlet.com/mcheon/n63jvfbjgeni/wish/181570412 mcheon https://padlet.com/mcheon/n63jvfbjgeni/wish/181713263 OpenStax CNX, cnx.org/contents/GFy_h8cu@10.8:rZudN6XP@2/Introduction.
