Mutations


"Mutations"

The animal that I chose is the coconut crab, or other crabs in Memorial Park. The crab will have stronger and larger crab claws. This would help the organism to hunt for its food faster and more efficient. I think that the other organisms who lives in the same area will have some impact. They will have less food than before because the crabs would most likely get the food they're suppose to eat. I think that crabs would most likely reproduce faster than before which would cost the population of some animals like fish,worms,clams decrease due to the increase of crabs. Other food such as nuts, coconuts, and more would also decrease because the coconut crab would most likely get to open and eat it faster. This would affect other animals in the wilderness that eats the same food which would cause competition. This change would be against because the crabs claws would be sharper which would make it harder for humans to catch it for food.

Adaptations

Adaptations Organism #1 : This animal is a type of bird with dark-like features in its body. This animal's dark like feature helps it survive in its environment by helping it be like the color of its surroundings. This animal kept going out and in of its habitat, and we wouldn't have any idea where it went because it was so dark inside the tree. I believe that this animal was hunting for worms because it landed on the ground and looked like it started stomping its feet on the ground like what birds do to find worms. Organism #2 : This is another bird, unlike organism #1 this bird has light-like feature. This light-like feature I believe helps it hide from predators because they mostly hunt in the sand. Upon my examination, this creature seems to be a seagull. This bird kept going in the ocean in search of marine food such as fish. I reckon this bird was in a group, hunting for food as I saw this bird tail other birds, creating a murmuration. Organism #3 : This

Site Description

Site Description The site that I have chosen is in Memorial Park in Garapan. Memorial Park is an environment with a lot of biotic and abiotic factors. Some abiotic factors in the environment are the blue ocean, the hard soil, rocks, sand, shells, benches, the slide, and swings. Some biotic factors in the park are animals such as seagulls, kingfishers, doves, hermit crabs, and fish. There are also trees, and plants like coconut trees, pine trees, flame trees,  plumeria flowers, and hibiscus.

Cellular Respiration

Cellular Respiration 4.4 Overview of Cellular Respiration      When there's oxyen, cellular respiration lets out chemical energy from sugar and other carbonbased molecules to make ATP. This respiration occurs in mitochondria. Mitochondrion cannot make ATP from food. Glycolysis breaks down glucose to two three-carbon molecules and makes two molecules of ATP, this process doesn't need oxygen. Two parts of the mitochondrion are involved in cellular respiration. Krebs cycle make molecules that brings energy to the next part of cellular respiration. This cycle takes place in the matrix of the mitochondrion. 38 ATP molecules are created from one glucose molecule. I learned more about the cellular respiration. All I knew back then was that photosynthesis and cellular respiration were opposites. I didn't know about the glycolysis and the krebs cycle. I also never learned where photosynthesis and cellular respiration occur.   4.5 Cellular Respiration Detail (A)
