biome, animal behavior, and chemical cycle presentation
DESCRIPTION
A presentation about Biomes, Animal behavior, and the carbon cycleTRANSCRIPT
Pelagic Biome, Animal Behavior(play), and The Carbon CycleThe Pelagic BiomeLocationThe open water component of aquatic biomes.Includes the Photic and Aphotic zonesMost of the aquatic biomes in the worldCovers 70% of the Earth
Plant and Animal LifePhotosynthetic OrganismsPhytoplanktonPhotosynthetic bacteriaHeterotrophsZooplanktonLarge squidsFishesSea turtlesMarine mammals
Interactions,Climate, and SoilInteractionsseeing as the pelagic Biome is the open water biome, it interacts with all other marine biomesClimatewind driven oceanic currentshigh oxygen levels
PlayDescription/ExplanationSuch behavior has no external goal but involves movements closely related to goal directed behaviors.related to acting as a predatorIt is potentially dangerous and/or costlythe rambunctious spirit leads to unwanted injuriesThe exercise hypothesisthe need to play to keep in shape for functional circumstancesThe practice hypothesisthe need to play to practice technique for functional circumstances
Proximal and Distal CausesProximal CauseI think that a proximal cause of play is the need to keep in shapeThe exercise hypothesis
Distal CauseIn battle if a species is dying out because of inefficient technique play would develop among the species in order to train.playful stalking is related to the stalking of preyattacking of conspecies is related to acting as a predator as wellThe Carbon CycleDiagram
