Summary:
The Tundra biome is a biome with low vegetation with cold, harsh weather. This biome is known to be the coldest biome on earth. The Tundra biome is located northern Eurasia, Alaska, and Northern Canada. To survive in this biome, you would need five things: food, water, shelter, fire, and learn about hazardous animals in this biome. To get food, you can hunt animals or pick plants. To get water, you can go to lakes, rivers, or pick up snow, and boil them. To get shelter, you can dig into a mountain with snow, enough to fit yourself inside. You can also create sparks with rocks and make the sparks fall on grass and twigs to make fire. To survive in the tundra, you may also need to watch out for dangerous animals and plants, such as polar/grizzly bears, mosquitoes, monkshood, labrador tea, and Arctic Poppies. These things are necessary to survive in the tundra.
SP8: Obtain, Evaluate, and Communicate Information:
This week, I continued on the Biome Survival Project. I gathered information on the hazardous animals in the tundra. I found six dangerous animals in the tundra which were: Grizzly Bears, Polar Bears, Arctic Poppies, Labrador Tea, and Monkshood. These things either harm you or kill you. I also helped find information on how to get fire in the tundra and find shelter in the tundra. To get fire, you simply get two rocks and a pile of twigs (Diamond-Leaf, since they burn easily) and grass. then smash the two rocks against each other, creating sparks. Those sparks will fall onto the pile of grass and twigs, creating a fire. To get shelter, find a mountain with a thick layer of snow on the side. Dig a hole into that layer of snow, enough for you to fit in. Then, block the entrance with a rock, and create a vent so you don't suffocate by poking holes on the ceiling. This will expose the inside of your shelter to the air outside.
XXC Cause and Effect:
This week, I identified a cause and effect system in the Tundra biome. I saw that the Tundra biome was very cold and could sustain very little life. The effect made certain animals and plants survive in the Tundra and some to die. The animals and plants that survive the tundra are either food or harmful. So the effect of the Tundra being very cold was that it made it hard for many living creatures to survive there. When humans challenge themselves to survive in the tundra, they have to survive only with the things in the tundra. The tundra provides very little vegetation and life, making it hard for humans to get food in the tundra. However, there is plenty of snow and rivers to get water from, so the tundra is full of water. The tundra also provided homes for Grizzly Bears and Polar bears, which are dangerous to humans. Harmful plants such as Monkshood and Labrador Tea also survive in the tundra. So the cause is that the Tundra is cold, and the effect is that it is hard to survive in the tundra, and you are left with harmful animals, harsh weather, and very little food.
Multiplier/Conclusion:
This week, I learned about the Tundra biome and its landscape. I also learned how to survive in it. Also, this week, I was a contributor, because I found a lot of information that helped my team and I get to where we are now.
