hey guys!

hello everyone. we started off our day with mrs. stein collecting our homework and giving us a stamp. After that we did our weird plant of the day. The weird plant of the day was THE MADAGASCAR PLANT!!!! this plant was pretty crazy. It looked like a palm tree except it was quite spikey. I should know this better than anyone because I decided to grasp the entire plant and it cut me in like 4 different places. Ok so after we checked out the plant we started a little lab. The lab was kind of virtual. We never actually did anything but we had the information we needed. Ok so the lab was to see how much water was lost if we put a plant in 3 different environments and seeing how much water came out of the plants in each of the environments. The 3 environments were bright light, wind, and mist. There was also a normal contol group. The act of water coming out of the plant is called transcription. and there was the least amount of transcription when the plant was in the moist environment and the most amount in the wind environment! Ok my children!

THE HOMEWORK IS TO FINISH UP THIS LAB AND UP 39 (~_~)
