"Does it eat spiders?"

We turned in the leaf lab.

The Plant of the Day is... the Spider Plant. It can self-propagate, meaning it can take a part of itself and grow a new plant out of that part. It is native to South Africa, however it is a common house plant. It is also a flowering plant.



We mostly discussed ATP, Energy, and Visible Spectrum.



Things about visible spectrum:

• Light travels in waves


• Each color has a diferent wavelength


• There are some colors we cannot perceive (i.e. ultra violet, infared, etc.)


• All the colors put together will make white


• Color can be absorbed and/or reflected

Note: Energy is what makes you do stuff, and ATP has Adenine, Ribose, and 3 Phosphate Groups
