Space 2 by Cooper Wells, Jessica Hall, Mia Lloyd-Boeder and Kye Watkins. The area we were in has quite an array of life from possums to micro-organisms the following food web and food chains show how the predators and prey work in the ecosystem.

At our site we had many different plants and organisms so many that I could not catalog them all in the graph here are a few of the plants that we found. We also found around different species/types of mushrooms and fungi. Unfortunately they decomposed and we could not use the samples.

 * Wolf-Spider || Flies, Crickets, Mosquitoes and even other spiders. || Semi-Clear legs. Fine hairs dusted over body. Bulbous sack on the end. Droopy Fangs. || On a fallen tree. It was damp and wet and the Wolf-Spider had strung a web. || One. || //__Lycosidae__// ||
 * Millipede || Decomposing vegetation, faeces and organic matter mixed with soil. || Long, black and serrated. The lines along the back look serrated. || On a log. They were rolling on the top. || About seven. || //__Diplopoda__// ||
 * Ring-Tailed Possum || Wide variety of plants, flowers and fruits. || Very large-mouse like, except the tail curls. || On a thin tree. It had built a nest. The nest looked like a lantern shape. || Just one. || //__Pseudocheirus peregrinus__// ||
 * Rabbit || Grass, forbs and leafy weeds. Due to this diet they do two types of poo. Hard balls and soft pellets. They eat the pellets of poo. || Like a mouse minus the tail, and, give the tail-less mouse some large ears. || Just hopping around in the grass. || Over all the time being there, Thirty. || //__Lepus curpaeums__// ||
 * Cow || Grass. || A large creature, but very dosile. It sports black and white spots. || In the paddock next to us. || Three. || Couldn’t Find. ||
 * Wallaby || Grasses, vegetables, leaves and other foliage. || Looks like a tiny kangaroo. || Hopping around below our hill. || Two || Couldn’t Find. ||
 * Kangaroo || They eat vegetation, regurgitate it, and then chew it as cud, for its final track of digestion. Grasses, and sometimes fruits are eaten. || A large version of the wallaby. The legs are muscular and they have large ears. || Grazing below our hill. || About 28 || //__Macropus giganteus__// ||

We found a wide variety of animals, including a ring-tailed possum. We found him curled up in a nest. It was shaped like a lantern. We saw many rabbits and cows over the fence.

The area where we collected samples from had a wide range of different types of rocks that surprisingly had no sign of limestone. The soil that I collected had a small amount of clay. A low amount of the soil dissolved in the test tube. The water sample had pH 7 and we performed a nitrates test on the water sample. Acid test

soil structure test

A lot of soil had no dissolved and was at the bottom of the test tube. The water was a light brown in colour. There was a little bit of clay mixed in with the dirt. ||
 * Soil sample 1 ||
 * A medium amount of Humus floated to the top of the test tube.

pH test

Neither acid nor a base. ||
 * Water sample 1 ||
 * Universal indicator ||
 * pH 7 neutral water.

Nitrates test
