Weekly Blog Post - Biology

Summary: During this week, we learned about biology and the animals and plants of the rainforest, such as a coral snake, which has vibrant bands of black, red, and yellow, to warn off predators and prey that this is a snake that carries venom. There wasn't really anything that I didn't "learn" because of the books that I've read, and all the nature documentaries that I watched. However, some of the things that I learned included how leaf cutter ants grow fungus, like termites, to grow their food. I also learned that a mother frog carries her babies (aka tadpoles) on her back and then releases them in a small pool of water gathered in the dipping canoe-like leaves of a plant.

SP1: Asking testable and/or scientific questions. I asked scientific questions when I was watching the rainforest documentary, such as does the coral snake a "venom gland"? If it does have a "venom gland", where is it located?
