L2 Biology 2023 Purpose Of DNA Replication

DNA Replication is to make a copy of Deoxyribonucleic Acid (DNA) to be used in a New Cell, (Cell Division).

The DNA is Unwinded and unzipped by using an enzyme called Helicase. 

For DNA Replication to begin, The DNA needs to be unwinded and Unzipped by an enzyme called Helicase. The DNA will then be split into strands for the DNA Polymerase Enzyme. This needs a template strand So it reads both of the strands. the DNA polymerase then puts on the Complementary bases and temporarily attaches them. The DNA Leading strand is Finalised by the 3' 5' (Prime) rule and so it can easily attach. The Lagging DNA which also follows the Prime rule cant be put together the same so the Lagging DNA gets pulled apart and put back together using the Okazaki rule. This rule also allows more of the DNA to be properly fitted. After this The template and the DNA are glues together so they become a full DNA. The Original DNA becomes two Daughter DNAs.
The result of DNA replication is two Identical Daughter DNA Strands, Half from the Original Strand and Half was created during this. This is also called Semi Conservative Replication

Patterns of Ecological Communities

 Patterns of Ecological Communities, 

Patterns in Ecological communities were about the different patterns within the habitats and Niches.

What words did I learn:
(Just A quick note I did not fact-check the Kiwi Stories so they are Fictional until proven)

Fundamental Niche - Any Habitat/Conditions in an Individual or species can survive
(The Kiwi is can survive in a rainforest)

Realized Niche - The Conditions the organism is most often found in (The Kiwi is mostly seen in the Edge of the Rain forest closest to the Road.)

Competitive Overlap - Where two species occupy the same niche causing competition. One will out-compete the other because of certain Adaptations.

Niche - The Role and the Habitat the Organism lives in (What does the  Organism do inside of the certain Habitat)

Succession  - Changes over time, to a community

Satisfaction - Verticle Changes to a community

Zonation - Horizontal changes across an area

Level 2 Ecology 2023 Food webs/Foodchains

 Ecology Pt. 1 2023

Introduction:

In Biology, for 2023 we have started to learn about the topic of Ecology. From what we have learned so far is what the different feeding relationships between plants and animal life. Some of the things we have learned include The different animal types, What animals eat to survive, and what Foodweebs and Foodchains are.

Key:

Carnivore - An organism that only eats other species or even its own species of Animal life

Herbivore - An organism that only eats Plantlife

Omnivore - An organism that eats plantlife and Animal life

Producer - The Primary food in the food chain is Usually conducted of  Plants, Plankton, and Bacteria that can have energy made by themselves.

Consumer - the Animal that eats the producer or other animals down the food chain.

Trophic level - Where the Energy goes out to (The Birds energy goes into the cat)

Food Chains:

According to the Scipad and what I have learned a Foodchain is a Line of animals and plants that eat each other to find out where the Energy Goes out. The way we can tell if it is a food chain or not is that the Feeding relationships within the line are as follows: The Producer which then is eaten by the primary consumer (which is usually a Herbivore,) then which is eaten by a Secondary Consumer (usually a Carnivor or Omnivore) and then eaten by a tertiary consumer (also usually a Carnivor or Omnivore)

Food Webs:

Food webs are a series of interlinked
