Discussion (I)

Discussion (I)

Since the Tundra Biome has a very cold atmosphere, we need adaptations of the organisms for the cold climate.

Hong Yee: The organisms must have outer-covering, for example warm furs or blubber. 
Hong Yee: Conghui wat is your organism? Like wat is ur progress?

Ji Won: I suggest an organism to be hibernating in the summer--> Hong Yee

Hong Yee: yup i am hibernating

Sarah: let’s discuss outer covering

Hong Yee: i have fats n fur

Yi Yin: I have prickly stuff

Hong Yee: Bo Hui?

Bohui: I have ‘fur’ on my organism too

Sarah: Its cold, why pricky stuff?

Hong Yee: cus prickly stuff so lose less heat

Yi Yin: thats why i asked u all to look at my organism for me. Then you all never answer

hibernating in summer???

Bohui: I think should be hibernating in the winter. then in the summer the consumers can 

gather all the food they need and store it lor. Plus the summer is super short only 1-2 months 

only.

Sarah: I will be wool lor.

Ji Won: Then I will have the heating liquid

Yi YIn: So i wat?

Hong Yee: Yiyin ucan remain the prickly stuff

Bohui: Yea

What can a decomposer be?

Bohui: Decomposer needs to decompose the producers, so it can like grow on the producers lor

Yi YIn: So my organism is okay rite?

Bohui: Your organism is ok

Sarah: We need to discuss the habitat now, like tree? ground?

Hong Yee: should be ground, cus the plants everything lives on ground

Yi YIn: there are no trees there

Ji Won: Yi Yin can be floating on water.

Sarah: So like mangrove?

Yi Yin: that’s only in summer becuz the water will be frozen wat

Ji Won: In the winter also because you will be stuck in between the ice.

Yi Yin: then my roots is in the water?

Hong Yee: If im not wrong in winter there is a bit of water in the ground, so the plants roots should be       very shallow

Sarah: like a bug skate.

Ji Won: @Sarah, who?

Yi Yin: i am a plant, how to skate???? :O

Yi Yin: @ Hong Yee So my roots short one lah?

Hong Yee: yup, have to be

Yi Yin: ok, so roots in the water?

Conghui: so my organism would need something to decompose you’ll when you’ll are dead 

 right? oh and my decomposer can only survive in high temperature, it that ok? what i mean
is that it must be in cold temperature to survive

Hong Yee: no tats not true cong hui. Cus its tundra biome, so very cold, so your organism 

must have some kind of adaptation to keep warm

Hong Yee: @ Cong hui, u can decompose anything, as long its dead

Yi Yin: Can meh? I thought miss tok say must be able to happen one. U ask miss tok lah

Hong Yee: yeah

Ji Won: Sarah, what can you say about that? Must it be realistic?

Sarah: I can see not everyone in this grp is participating in this discussion

Ji Won: Everyone, please put in your opinions:D

Ji Won: I shall summarise it.

Yi Yin: yah so?

Sarah: we need to give the organisms a name. Leggo!

Hong Yee: my organism wat name ah? I think ms tok say nid in latin

Yi Yin: The name can give later wat....

Sarah: Just think the name just 'copy' from other organisms

Hong Yee: no dun copy. just google translate

Ji Won: For Yi Yin, she is a plant and then she is

Yi Yin: Ji Won, u always dun finish ur sentence :(

Conghui: its so damn hard to find decomposers kayyyyy

Sarah: @conghui, mushroom? Fungi?!!!!!!!!!

Conghui: u go search la.... so little info

Hong Yee: Conghui so when u can finish?

Yi Yin: Ji Won, i need help

Hong Yee: hey guys i think we should concentrate on 1 thing first u noe, cus its VERY messy 

now

Yi Yin: Organisms

Hong Yee: lets say the most basic one. Habitat?

Ji Won: Habitat, is dependent on the climate of the Tundra Biome

Yi Yin: Talk about habitat, then got habitat already then can say about the organisms. We 

didn’t do that at first. SO WE MIGHT HAVE TO REDO!

Hong Yee: but its just one part of the tundra biome

Ji Won: it’s okay, then we can like make the habitat to be land & water both:D

Ji Won: like bohui is water plant right? or yiyin.. hey yi yin or hongyee! Do you remember 

what we have discussed last time?

Bohui: mine is not water plant.

In a nutshell... 

My group consists of 6 members, Park Ji Won, Guo Bohui, Lee Hong Yee, Liu Conghui , Chow Yi Yin and myself. As we did not have time to meet up for a discussion, we constantly did discussions online.

 

First, we considered the factors of the Tundra Biome in Planet Zork. Thereafter, we did our force fitting using an object and posted it on a Google document that one of our group members created. Then, we all commented on each other’s force fitting and we amended it. We also discussed on how we could improve and accommodate our special features such that our food chain could flow. We also considered the features of each other’s organism and see what the possibilities were for our features.

 

Furthermore, we continued to see what features were suitable to protect itself from the surrounding temperature and climate. Then, we continued with our second and third drafts. We commented and finally arrived at our final product, our organisms.
