Students, please use your Venn Diagram to help you write a comment comparing and contrasting two ecosystems that we have learned about this week.  Please include at least two differences and one similarity for your two ecosystems.  Happy commenting!

How ocean compares and contrasts with wetlands.The differnt about the ocean is have salt water and the ocean is large.And the differnt about the wetlands is it can be fresh water or salt water also it help clean dirty water.Also why there alike is they can be salt water and some animals live there.

Im doing tropical rain forest and temperate forest.Why they are alike they both have animals and rain.Why there differint the rain forest gets alout of rain.The temperate forest has good soil and it dosent get that much rain

Did you now that wetlands are damp and they stop flooding.Did you now that their are three zones in the ocean.One is the midnight that is the darkist.They are similar by they both have water.

I'm doing wetland and oceans.In wetland there's 3 fresh water and 97 salt water.Anthorone is that wetlands are often around the ege of the river.A ocean has a body of salt water.A ocean as animals that live in the water.

I will be comparing and contrasting Temprate forests and Tropical rain forests.A tropical rain forest has poor soil while temprate forests have rich,perfect soil.And tropical RAIN forests get alot of rain evry year.And temprate forests get not alot of rain but not to little.And 2 simalaratys are they are both forests and both have animals in the forests.

My ecosystem are Ocean,Wetland.
There different because ocean has 3 part in it the 3 part is I think their one that call sunsine,twlight,minight.also in the ocean there are shark in it. Wetland is different from ocean because some animals live in wetland.wetland don't have shark in it.The alike are they both have water in it and fish in it.

I am compareing and contrasting oceans and wet lands.1 similarity is that they have water ecosystems.2 differences are that wet lands are land locked and oceans are not.Wet lands can stop floding and oceans can not.

I chose wetland and desert to compare and contrast. they are different because a wet lands soil is mostly covered with water a desert has barely any water. A wetland has rich soil a deserts soil can not grow because it cant collect water to help it live.

I am comparing and contrasting oceans and deserts and one thing the same about them is they are both big. A differences between the 2 is an ocean has lots of warter and a desert is very dry.Anthor is there is alot of living things in the ocean and not much life in deserts.

Dear MR.D,
Some deserts are and some aren't and im doing a desert that is hot this desert is a hot ecoysystem that is dry and hot aand now this is about aocean not much fish can survife the midnight zone so they live in the higher place that is not the midnight zone so they don't die.

Im conparing wetlands and oceans they are same because they both have water.oceans are diffrent than wetlands becuase oceans cover 3 forth of the erath and they are a large boty of salt water.wetlands are diffrent than oceans becuase the water covers the land for most of the year and they have more reptiles than the ocean.

I am comparing and contrasting Hot desserts and Oceans.The 1 same thing about hot desserts and oceans are they both have animals living in the 2 ecosystems.The difference between a hot dessert is 1.doesn't get much rain.2.has cactuses that stour water.The difference between a ocean is 1.oceans have alot of water.2.has 3 zones.Sunlit zone,twilight zone,midnight zone.

AD5 said...

I'm doing oceans and wetlands.In wetlands there's these trees that can live with alot of water.Wetlands are often around the edge of the river.A ocean is a body of salt water.A ocean as animals that live in water.

Z17 said...

I am wrghting about temperate forests and wetlands.Wetlands also have rish water and soil.In temperate forests have lots of plants and animals and three layers,diffrint seisions and ris soil,oh and thay both have rish soil.

logster21 said...

My ecosystems are A hot desert and a wet land.


What is different in a hot desert well lets me tell you. A desert is very dry and you will not see many animals in the day. it is very hot in the day.


Now what is different in a wetland let me tell you. A wetland is very wet and cool in the day. There is a lot of animals if you look in the water you will probably fish.



Now what is let me tell you.
They are both cool at night and are both ecosystems.

Now tell people what you jest learned.

Dear,Mr,D
The two ecosystems thet I piked are the Hot Desert and the Wetland.At night the Hot Desert get's cold at night.The Wetland is awet damp plce by wetland.There can be a smell city in the Desert,but the only way thay cauld do thet is by CUTING the TREES DOWN.plants in the Wetland have very VERY think roots.

Dear Mr.DeGraff,
I picked the tropical ecosystem.And the temperate ecosystem.What is different the tropical ecosystem has pore soil.And gets lots of rain.A temperate ecosystem has rich soil and has difforent weather during sesons.What is the same is they have soil and haves animals.

A3 said...

Temperate and tropical.
temperate forest has different weather and different seusons and it has good soil.
tropical forest is hot and dump and has bad soil on the bodom dose not have alot of sun and dose not get alot of rain.they are similer because there both forests.

Daer Mr D

I am going to compare and contrast is oceans and wetlands.So,first I will contrast them.The ocean is MUCH bigger than a wetland.And an ocean always has saltwater and a wetland only sometimes has freshwater and sometimes saltwater.Now to compare.Of course,both are a habitat for living animals.
