It doesn't feel so good to be back home again, after that awesome biology trip. It was in the countryside studying abt the ecosystem. It was simply so grt. all the greenary and fresh air. And ofcourse away from parents and home.
It took us 5 hours to reach there cause it was raining. But as soon as we reached there the tiredness of the trip was overcome by the beautiful scenery of that place, just magnificent. We took a rest and then went for our lesson. It was to see how gradually the succesion takes place with respect to abiotic and biotic factors. It was interesting to see how this primates provides a whole new era for succesion to take place. But eventually dies out as secondary succesion takes place. Everything has to be balanced in order to maintain the ecosystem but sadly we humans are creating such an impact that other organism are completely wiped out. Only few of us know how this impacts are greatly effecting them.
then the next day we went to sea shore to see how the primates of sea have adapted themselves. again it was worth seeing it. We looked at how these are adapted to it's realised niche. We had to identify them and state the conditions required by it. And the method to do so. The most adapted to the rocky shores was top shells that had a mother of pearl in their shells and graze in sea weeds. They were the most adapted against the decication.
On Friday we went to north devon sea to see the succesion in sea side. It was not an easy task as there were sands winds and the dunes were uneven. We moved away from sea shores along the plan taking geometric samples as we moved away. There aboitic factors were equally important too so we took temp of the soil, pH level of the sand, moisture in the sand, wind forces and all. By the end of our sampling we were exausted by the sandy winds, walking in the even paths. So we headed back to our camp and cleaned ourself. It was the last evening we were spending there so our teacher took us to a near pub to play skitters. It was fun, it is like a bowling but a bit differnt. Our teacher bought us some drinks, not alcoholic just J2O. And we palyed it for like 2 hours. And finally back to our camp. even it was a long day we were so excited that the tiredness didn't even mattered.
On saturday morning everyone was sleeping till 7.30. We quikly washed ourseleves and went to make oursleves a packed lunch for the way back home. Then had our breakfast and went to our two hours lad work. It was fun to work in lab and to see the results. WE were 99% confident in our sampling as our teacher said no one can be 100% sure. so we bid farewell to our coach there and to beautiful castle where we stayed. After 5 hours we reached to the city of london, the traffic, pollution, crowd, everything seemed so different and disgusting. But afterall this is what we have made. From the beautiful ladnscape to a rushing urbanization.
