Oma Artist Statement: In the most popular game of 2018 there is C4. It was intended to use for building and structures but it can be used for trolling. It is so devious. I never use it because it is unhonorable. I created it in real life to remind me that not everything is perfect. The lights turn on and that represents, when its about to detonate.
Darrin Artist Statement: this is our c4 fitted with christmas lights and their are many like it but this is ours I mean itś cool
We had only 3 baby seeds out of all of our pods
We adopted seeds from other groups
Added soil and fertilizer
Planted 2 (YG and B) baby seeds in each pod
Covered in more soil
Plants range in length from 3 ½ cm to 8 cm
3 of the stems are becoming purples
4 stems are a very light green
13 of the leaves look rigid
14 of the leaves are rounded
Biotic factors: other plants, bacteria, plants themselves
This is categorized like this because bacteria and plants are living organisms. The bacteria in the air could affect how our plants grow. Our peers’ plants could interfere with our plants because they could rub against each other. Our plants could rub against each other which could take off some leaves or flowers. Abiotic factors: artificial “sunlight”, temperature, soil, air we categorized the abiotic factors in this way because we are using are artificial “sunlight” to help our plants grow. It could be possible that the light could blow out. The temperature could change depending on the light or the room. The room could be hot or cold if the windows are open. The soil is a factor because we don’t know what’s included in the soil. Lastly the air, because it may be certain particles throughout the air that could affect the plants. We predicted that the F1 and F2 plants are going to be the phenotypes and genotypes for our baby plants. Since both of are parents were yellow green leaf, homozygous and heterozygous, their kids were more than likely going to produce yellow green leaf babies as well. This cycle continued on since we didn’t have a variation of the parents. One thing that could have effected our plant process was lack of light, because a lot of people in my class plants were dying because they did not have enough light to grow so they were drying out.
The F2 generation look like how we predicted them. We expected the colors to be different since we took the seeds from the first generation to plant the second generation. The F2 generation grew faster than the the parent generation. The first generation barely grew at all. Some of the factors that could have hindered our plants abilities to thrive is how much we watered them.
The environment and ecosystem effects organisms chances of survival. For example, many organism exhibit traits such as camouflage to hide from predators or conceal themselves from their prey in order to capture them. However, environments can change due to a multitude of factors, some being caused by human activity (burning fossil fuels, deforestation, pollution) and natural disasters. For example, the rock pocket mice depended heavily on their sandy and light colored environment, which blends easily with their light colored fur. This was an advantage that they held when it came to predators. Yet, years later a volcano erupted, turning the sandy environment into dark molten rock. Due to this, rock pocket mice light fur turned into a disadvantage. They were easily exposed to their predators, leading to the decrease of their population. However, if you look at pocket mice today, they have dark colored fur. Though this happened, it wasn’t the environment that changed the pocket mice phenotype but a genetic mutation that happened at a pivotal moment for the pocket mice population.
When hypothesizing what an organism will look like. The greater indicator would be looking at the genetic makeup of the organism. What stood out to me is plants can be affected by the light, location, and how often you water them, all of these affect the growth of the plants.
Wubbie:
The 2 hearts represent our hearts. One for each of us. Inside, we have pictures that represents us such as our family, our flags etc…. The hearts coming together captures the moment our friendship collided. The photos in the middle are photos that mean a lot to us. Everything is black and white but when the hearts combine together, you see colors. The colors represent the meaning of our friendship as one.
