TWIS #12

          This week in science my group and i designed a habitat for my cellar spider. We went to the park, gathered some leaves and sticks and put them into the habitat. I then searched up what cellar spiders eat. Then i witnessed a cellar spider wrap up a fruit fly plenty of times and then take a bite out of it. Then i made an observation log where i put things about my spider.
          This week in science i learned that cellar spiders have spots. I didn't realize it until my third day with the spider. I learned that cellar spiders dont touch the ground much. Every time i see my spider it is on its webs in the same corner. They are lazy. This week i learned about energy pyramids. I had no idea how important animals like polar bears were to humans. If one species dies, it affects all species.
