Ocean Zones
Things I’ve learnt about Ocean Zones.
-The ocean has five different zones.
-each zone has different types of sea creatures.
-The deeper you go the less sunlight you see.
-The pressure under water gets more and more intense the deeper you go.
-There’s not as much life in the Trenches rather than the Sunlight zone.
-The temperatures from the Sunlight zone to the Trenches is 30°C to 1-4°C.
Week 4 Sea Turtle fact file

This week for STEAM, we are studying the life cycle of sea turtles. I chose the Leatherback sea turtle because I really liked the background on it and its looks. I also chose it because I really like how the patterns in their shells works.
Here is my fact file on Leatherback sea Turtles.
Marine Animal Reproduction
In week three for STEAM we researched the different life cycle patterns observed in marine animals. We found that there are four main categories.
Oviparous – Producing young by means of eggs which are hatched after they have been laid by the parent.
Viviparous– Give birth to live young.
Ovoviviparous – Once the egg hatches, it remains inside the mother for a period of time
Metamorphosis – Change of physical form, structure, or substance
