    I was very impressed with this website. I thought that it told a lot about where the earthquakes are and when they happened. This did not have any information on our unit, though.
  •  
    It's so cool how you can see all of the plates on the map and wow right now there are 2 earthquakes happening near Colorado.
  •  
    This website gave very detailed information about earthquakes all around the world. They pinpointed all of them on a map whihc made it easier and clearer.

Giant dragonflies - 10 views

  •  
    This website is really interesting because it says that dragonflies have grown by 15%. It was interesting, but irrelivent to the unit.
  • ...12 more comments...
  •  
    This article was very informative p, but not about the unit we are studying.
  •  
    Why?
  •  
    Cool, but has nothing to do with what we are studying
  •  
    This website was really sad, I want giant dragonflies. It was really informative and a brain popper!
  •  
    I think it's amazing that the giant dragonfly's wingspan is around two and a half feet. I wonder how large a giant tarantula would be.
  •  
    The picture is so gross, but I could never imagine a dragonfly 15 times bigger!
  •  
    It's very amazing that dragonflies were once very big. This was a very interesting website.
  •  
    It is really interesting how super-size dragon flies are 15% percent larger than regular dragon flies!
  •  
    It is so cool that dragon flies were so much bigger than they are now.
  •  
    The dragonflies of this size could not be sustained because the oxygen level lowered.
  •  
    I see why the dragonflies could have grown faster because of the oxygen level. There was more oxygen then. With less oxygen, they could not have grown very fast and would run out of breath.
  •  
    I wonder why they shrank or "came back" after the great dying?
  •  
    The giant dragon flies are 15 percent larger than others. This is interesting to know and read!
  •  
    The reason why dragonflies are smaller is because of a decrease in oxygen over the years since then. The deacreased oxygen makes the bugs smaller because there is less oxygen for there bodies

How Cremation Diamonds Are Made - 0 views

  •  
    This shows the process of cremation diamonds are made.
  • ...10 more comments...
  •  
    I can't believe you can make a diamond out of a relative with pressure and 5,000 degrees fahrenheit.
  •  
    It truly does amaze me how this is done but if the people make one mistake, the diamond is worth nothing. You also don't get the cremations you gave in the diamond you get.
  •  
    It shows the process of ashes being turned in to dimands.
  •  
    This is a great website to see how ashes are turned into diamonds
  •  
    It's a really interesting website that has everything from how they are made to why you should make your relative into a diamond. Also the pressure to about 800,000 pounds per square inch which I thought was pretty interesting.
  •  
    They will make a diamonds out of any ash that you want.
  •  
    That's really interesting! How do they create a diamond so fast?
  •  
    Synthetic diamonds are used for industrial purposes and are not worth a lot until they are cut. It is the complexity of the cut that gives it value. Industrial diamonds are used to sharpen blades for cooking and surgery industrial diamonds are in chainsaws to make a better saw, and synthetic diamonds are used in cutting other diamonds.
  •  
    To make a diamond out of ashes, you have to heat it up to over 5,000 degrees!
  •  
    It takes a while or the diamond to be made and a lot of pressure.
  •  
    This website showed how ashes can be turned into diamonds.
  •  
    I think that it is crazy that the temperature has to go up to 5,000 degrees Fahrenheit! Then the carbon turns to graphite and that takes a few weeks to do I think that it is crazy that you can turn ashes into diamonds!

Dinosaurs - 1 views

  •  
    A website about dinosaurs and there everyday lifestyle.
  • ...2 more comments...
  •  
    There was a much larger variety of dinosaurs than I thought.
  •  
    It adds the different types of the dinosaurs. Like marine and land and stuff
  •  
    This website had a wide variety of dinosaurs. It talked about the dinosaurs habitat and there lifestyle.
  •  
    This is a really good website because it was talking about alls of the different dinosaurs that lived in the cretacious period. in this, we also more about the sauropods, which contributed to a great amount of chatter in class disscusion. Basically what we learnd here was that sauropods had gone extinct, but their relitive, which are lightly armored, roamed all of the continents on the now changing Pangea. We learned about Avian life, plant life, and Marine life, which at the time includedearly versions of fish and sharks, which contributed a lot since all of the marine life dinosaurs before had gone extinct.

    Dinos in Morrison

  •  
    This was very helpful, I did not know there was dinosaurs in Morrison
  •  
    In order for a fossil to form, the body must be buried quickly before weather conditions and scavengers have a chance to scatter or otherwise destroy the bone.
  •  
    The Morrison rock formation was from about 155- 148 million years ago.
  •  
    This website is extremely helpful and relates directly to what we are learning. We should use it in class to futher our knowledge.
  •  
    It includes the fossils that were found.
  •  
    This website is very good! I was surprised by how many different fossils were found there!
  •  
    This website was really good. It was about the different fossils found, from what dinosaur they where from, and where they where mostly found.
  •  
    Interesting site on the Morrison formation.

    Applies Denver onion idea to sandstone below Boulder
  •  
    This is a very good website about what we talked about in class like about Denver being an onion.
  •  
    Gives good info in a very simple way.
  •  
    Wherever rocks of earths crust are visible, geology can be interpreted. This gives good examples and lots of details.
  •  
    A good website to review everything we learned in class about Denver's geology.
  •  
    This is really relevant to what we're learning! Only this is boulder... And we're studying Denver but its basically the same so this is really helpful and not so hard to understand!
  •  
    This site went over Boulder geology in a very advanced and long way. I learned about all the geological periods and the effects they had on life in Boulder. I was not aware that there was a period known as the Pennsylvania Period.
  •  
    I had no idea what the Pennsylvania period was until now. This is a really helpful site, but a little complex.
  •  
    This tells you about boulder geology in a complexed way.
  •  
    Tells about the geology in boulder.
  •  
    I discovered when reading this that the earliest rocks in Boulder County are 1.7-1.8 billion years old.
  •  
    Its a good site that goes through a lot of different rock layers.
  •  
    The oldest rocks in Colorado are 1.7-1.8 billion years old.

Millipede - 9 views

  •  
    I'm not sure if I thought this was that useful. Millipedes are one of many animals in that time period, it does not give much use if the information is about a modern insect.
  • ...6 more comments...
  •  
    This article was very informative about the giant millepedes, but not anything else.
  •  
    The thing about the Latin roots was very interessting
  •  
    There's actually more to a millipede than the eye can see.
  •  
    Kinda creepy but still very interesting
  •  
    I wonder if the legs grow back after they fall off???.?
  •  
    Oh Wikipedia, lots of information most of it off topic, but still a good website.
  •  
    This is a good website to use for the biology of the millipede and there's info about its history too.
  •  
    Apparently, millipedes have two pairs of legs per segment

Apatosauruses - 1 views

  •  
    Good Dino site
  • ...4 more comments...
  •  
    Brontosaurus was one of the largest land animals that ever existed. The dinosaur Brontosaurus is now called Apatosaurus. This enormous plant-eater measured about 70-90 feet long!!!! and about 15 feet tall at the hips.
  •  
    This site tells about the brontosaurus which is now called apatosaurus. This dinosaur has a very small intelligence. This was a good website.
  •  
    I never knew that some of those dinosaurs existed back then from the chart at the very bottom of the page.
  •  
    This site helps to make easier to understand what some of the dinosaurs that existed back then are called
  •  
    Evan, this was a very good site to learn about brontosaurus or apatosaurus. Apatosaurus have a small head which concludes that they have a small brain, and aren't the most intelligent species that had lived during their time. They had a long tail which acted as a counterbalanced to its very long neck. It also was a tool of protection from other predatorsYet the extremely long neck had advantages for a herbavore who would be constantly attacked by hungry predators. The apatosaurus was a very tall sauropod, which was taller than the allosaurus, which was a predator of the time. The allosaurus is not tall enough to try and snap at the head of the dinosaur, and it wouldn't be smart to get near a whip like like tail such as the apatosaurus's. It had a bulky body and ate rocks to help the digestion of its food.An interesting fact that i had learned was that their nostrils were located on the top of their head, but it couldn't be used as a snorkeling device because the apatosaurus lived on land and not near many big masses of water. I had peg like teeth, which resembling ones of a lizard today, and had four legs.
  •  
    This website was very useful in talking about the apatosaurus. The apatosaurus was a plant eater (herbivore). This dinosaur had a small head and walked on four legs. The apatosaurus was one of the biggest land animals.
