My food chain narrative

This story will be about a food web. Exactly what is a food web? Well a food web is a source of animals that gets energy from a different animal. For me I will be doing a short food web. In that food web there will be Seagulls, Crab , Mussels , Zooplankton and Phytoplankton. I’ll explain what they are. I hope you learn something.

What they are:

Let’s start with our producer the phytoplankton.A producer such as a phytoplankton gets its energy from the sun and water. You may think, how is that possible? Well without the sun and water the phytoplankton will be gone by now. Which means that animals that feed on the phytoplankton will have to search for another food (sea animal or plant).
Now for our consumer which is our zooplankton. You are probably wondering what is a consumer? Well it is an animal that feeds on our producer. Yes our phytoplankton. It will make no sense that the zooplankton eats the phytoplankton because there the same species, but yes! So that means the energy that the phytoplankton has, travels to the zooplanktons body which gives the zooplankton energy.
On to our mussel. Can you guess what our mussel is?Well if you said consumer then you got half. Here is the second part. It is a primary consumer. A primary consumer is a consumer that eats plants. Do you know the other word for that? A herbivore.A herbivore is an animal that eats plants.So it make sense because the zooplankton feeds on the phytoplankton which eats the sea grass. So that means that the energy from the zooplankton travels into the mussels. Now here is how the mussel eats the zooplankton. It can’t open its shell but it can stuck up the zooplankton then eat it.It just eats micro animals.

You think that it ends there but it doesn't’. The next animal is a crab. A crab is a consumer as well. Which means it will eat the mussel. That means the energy that the mussel gets will travel to the crab.

Now for our seagull.Yes this is the last animal. Can you guess what our seagull is? Well It is an Apex Predator. If you don't know what at Apex Predator is it on the top of the food chain. What I mean by that is that the Apex Predator is basically the animal that you can't eat. Like us no one can eat humans because we are at the top of the food chain. We basically eat everything well not exactly. Anyway getting back onto our theme the seagull gets its energy from the crab. You're probably wondering how it happens? Well what happens is that the seagull waits until it comes out. Then it dives in and gets it.So that means the energy from the crab travels to the seagull.

Now that you know what a food chain is, and what are their names. Let’s get into the story.

Once there was are phytoplankton called plankton. He lived with his family in the rocky shore. In his family there was his brother,sister,mum and dad. He was the youngest one in the family. His family would also hide from the crabs.

There was one time when phyto went out and a crab almost chased him for dinner. Now these days phyto has to go with his brother. He is also embarrassed because the kids his age also laugh and say “ I can’t believe he still holds his brothers hands, I mean this is ridiculous”.

Now that he is twelve he can finally go out and get some food for his family. He went out the next and before he could even get the food the crabs were surrounding him.

He was in deep deep trouble. Until a group of zooplanktons came to his aid. You think that is ridiculous because the zooplankton eat phytoplankton, but this time there were kind. There was a zooplankton called zoo they tried to scare away. After 10 minutes phyto family started to worry.

There were more and more crabs coming until seagulls came and grabbed the crabs and took them to a special place. There was even a seagull name Scuttle who yelled out “ thanks for getting our dinner little phytoplankton”.

Phyto went back home and gave his family food. The seagulls on the other hand gobble up the crabs. The end.

Dangerous writing challenge 3

My family and I were just having a pool party, until a red car rushed in the pool. We were all confused because this car had just came out of nowhere. My family went to check if anyone was there but no one was there. After a couple of minutes a man and lady were running from the direction the car was at. I went up to them and asked " are you two the owner of the red car?" Soon they said yes! My uncle walked up and said " Where were you guys when this hapened?" The replied" we were o doing our washing and when we came back our car was gone". My uncle said hold on, did any of you guys put the break on?" No the man said. " So that is why" I said. "you also should put it on back". Okay, thank you" said the man.

This is my dangerous writing part 3. This time we were writing about a red car falling in your pool! There are some mistakes. The reason why was because we only had five minutes.It was a speed writing task.I wish that I could type faster but I am happy about my progress. By the way this did not happen at my house. My challenge for you guys is to try it out and see if you beat me. If you want to see the link CLICK HERE.Can you beat my writing? I hope you enjoy these writings.

The tail wack creature

Common name:Crayfish

Scientific name:crawfish

Te Reo Māori name: Koura or karaka

Introduction
→ So this is my information report 2. It is about my rocky shore creatures. My creatures was a crayfish. Here you will learn the scientific name, Maori name and some facts. I hope you learn something. By the way, I couldn’t decide what the Maori name was.
Habitat

→ Crayfish live in the sub tidal zone. If you don’t know what that is that is part of the ocean that always stays under the ocean. Crayfish love to live in between rocks. It is probably there favourite hiding place.

Diet
→ Crayfish eat anything they touch. The only one I know is crabs. You're probably wondering where it finds it food. Well sometimes they find there food in between rocks. They also find them in the out water. They sometimes just grab anything they touch and eat it.

Behaviour/ movement

→Crayfish have really sharp tails. If you were to go to one and touch it, your finger could possibly get cut. I would call it the wack tail because it wacks it tail. Crayfish use their tails in case a predator comes by.

Special features (adaptations)

Include a labelled diagram in this section

→ I think that the special features is the head and eyes. The head has a very sharp snout. The eyes are very keen. Their body is thin but they are tough.

Conclusion

→ So did you learn something from here? If you did cool. Now my challenge for you is to do one like this ( only if you can). Anyways I hope you enjoy this writing.

Dangerous writing 2

Sometimes little animals can be big. Take for example  this little ant. He is trying to climb a rock. Why? Well because he wants to achieve his goal. When he was little his mother past and she told him to go climb a rock and see the light. Six years later he found the rock and climbed. He was trying so hard but he couldn't do it.  Until he thought about his mother. He remembered what she had said before she past. So he never gave up. He tried and tried again. Soon he go to the top. It was about noon and he thought that his mother was there with him.  He then saw a stick and went to pick it up. Then he yelled " mother I will never ever forget you because you are my life".  That afternoon he looked at the sunrise and smiled.

This is my dangerous writing part 2. This time we were writing about a ant lifting a stick. There are some mistakes. The reason why was because we only had five minutes.   I also did another one about a mammoth stuck in an iceberg. Which one do you think has more? I wish that I could type faster but I am happy about my progress. If you want to see the link CLICK HERE.Can you beat my writing? I hope you enjoy these writings.



Somewhere there is a elephant that is stuck in an iceberg. A human saw it and came to see what was going on. When he stepped up to the iceberg the foot slowly. Soon the truck started to move and the iceberg made a very loud noise. It was like It was going to come out. When he looked closer he noticed that it was  mammoth. He was in shock because he had thought that mammoth were extinct from the planet.he touch it and it moved very slowly. He had just remembered that he had his phone. So he went to get. He got back and the other foot started to move. He was so scared that he called a friend of his. His friend came from a very long town. So he couldn't. So he got the photo and went.

The master of escaping

Common name:Octopus

Scientific name: Octopoda

Te Reo Māori name:Wheke
Do you always think that you know octopuses well? I thought I did, until we did this activity. Did you know that an octopus is a escaper? Well you would think no, but after you read this you will know it. Octopuses are great escapers, but how. Well you may think that an octopus can not fit through little cracks and holes. Well your wrong. They can fit anywhere. At the top that is the scientific name and the Maori name.
What you will see is what an octopus eats. Where it lives. Its movement and special features.

Habitat
→ A octopus likes to live in cold water.It loves the temperature of the water to be at least 60 degrees F or less. It lives near the pacific ocean. The octopuses live near Japan because there water is cold.

Diet

→ Octopuses eat crayfish,small fish,sea slug, sea snail, shrimp, shellfish and crab. The octopuses find there food in between rocks. I think the reason why is because it can come up from the water and chase its animal.

Behavior/ movement

→ Octopuses have different movements. When it turns red that means it is angry. When a predator is approaching then it blends in with the closest thing to it.For example, if a rock was by it would change color and match like it. What they also do is that they squirt out ink with someone is coming close.

Special features (adaptations)


Include a labelled diagram in this section


→ These are a octopuses special features. They have 9 brains, 3 hearts and suction cups. These are important to the octopus. The suction cups things help him to stuck had rock things the rocks. They probably have 9 brains to think better.





Conclusion
→ Now that you know what an octopus does you can tell your friends. Really they actually have nine brains.
