7/22-7/28 A picture of a snake. This is an example of an ectotherm, which is a cold-blooded animal.
7/22-7/28 A picture of a wet plant. This is an example of adhesion and cohesion. Adhesion happens when water sticks onto anything solid and cohesion happens when water sticks to water.
7/29-8/4 A picture of a black bumble bee and a flower. This is an example of mutualism as the bee gets pollen and the flower gets pollinated.
7/29-8/4 A picture of a type of aloe vera plant. This is an example of tropism as the plant is growing on the side with the most sunlight.
7/29-8/4 A picture of plant. This is an example of homeostasis as the plant is completely regulated.
7/29-8/4 A picture of a palm tree. This is an example of a frond. A frond is a leaf that is divided to create many other leaves.
7/29-8/4 A picture of aphids on a plant. They show an example of parasitism as they benefit from the plant while the plant suffers loss of fluids.
7/29-8/4 A picture of a grape plant. This is an example of a C3 plant. A C3 plant uses C
3 to help convert CO
2 into compounds.
7/29-8/4 A picture of crab grass. This is an example of a C4 plant. A C4 plant turns CO
2 into C4 before it goes through the Calvin cycle.
