TWIS #13


Objective: If we were to add five more spiders to your spider habitat tank, what would happen? And why? Use these terms in your explanation: glucose, photosynthesis, energy, carbon dioxide, oxygen.




                    If you were to add five more spiders the habitat that we have provided for our spider(London) then the spider might live. I state this as my hypothesis  because in a ecosystem thier is a cycle. This cycle goes like this; the sun gives light to the damp soil that is filled with H2O which make producers (plants). They are autotroph in other words makes their own food. From there the producers goes into the next stage that produces glucose which is sugar. The glucose helps the seedling grow because it gives the seedling the extra carbon that is need. After that, the consumer which is meat eaters and also considered a heterotoph because it cannot make its own food and have to depend on other organisms to live. However it helps the cycle because it gives the autotrophs Co2(carbon dioxide) and the autotroph helps them by producing O2(oxgen) back. This is the cycle of photoosynthesis, which is green plants, algae and some bacteria use light energy from the sun to convert carbon dioxide and water into chemical energy in the form of glucose (sugar). In the process, oxygen is released into the atmosphere. Therefore the spider will live because of the elements hat is in the cycle. Therefore without one element it could throw the whole cycle of because they all depend on each others for the supply that is needed.
