This Week in Science (Carrying Capacity and Relationships)

This week in science we discussed the words : Limiting factors and Carrying capacity.We did this in order to understand the definitions of each word to play the game.We played in game call "Oh Deer" in order to learn how the limiting factors affect the carrying capacity.After we play the game we did a graphic to represent the data of the game.The next day we watch videos to defined in own our words the definitions of the words : Predator/Prey , Mutualism , Commensalism , and Parasitism.Then we organized some cards to see how organisms interact in their environment.




This week in science i learned how the availability of resources affects the population in an ecosystem.I also learned the definitions of Limiting factors : the avariable energy , water , oxygen , and minerals , and the ability of ecosystem to recycle the remains of dead organisms.Also i learned how organisms interact in their environment.I learned the relationships of organisms.Predator/Prey : The predator eats the prey ; Mutualism : Were both protect each other ; Commensalism : One animal benefits from the other and the other don't get benefits , and Parasitism : They(parasite) benefits from a person(host),but the person get something negative.
