Test Question 2 for Pilot Students
Greetings
Here is another animation related to what we are doing with plants. It isn't as exciting as the virus animation, but interesting nonetheless.
Transpiration Animation
Here's the catch. This animation does not have a voice over (narration). Therefore, I would like for you to create a voice over for the animation. You might want to have a pencil & paper handy to help you compose your voice over.
Here are a few guidelines to help you:
1. Describe the opening image. Explain the function of any structures that are named in the animation (roots, trunk, etc.). Explain the title of the animation.
2. Explain what is happening when the camera zooms in. Again explain any terms that are introduced.
3. When the action begins, explain the process that is taking place. Explain the function of xylem, which is the structure that is being emphasized in the animation. Hypothesize what the function of the phloem might be (try to figure this out before looking it up in a book or on the internet).
4. Think about timing. Your descriptions need to be short & sweet since the animation moves along rather swiftly and lasts only about 45 seconds..
This voice over is due by Tuesday, June 1st, 2004.

Its so cool. A tree has so many parts. When it rains the water goes trew the roots up the xylome and to the leave and then the water evaporates. Trees have so many parts like the roots , trunk , leave, xylom, plotic. I didnt hear anything so i didnt understand very much.

First, there is a tree.
Under the soil, are the roots.
Above the roots, is the trunk of the tree.
And hanging from the trunk, is the limb.
Hanging from the limb, is a leaf.
Inside the trunk, is the xylem and the phloem.
When it rains, the water goes in the roots,through the xylem, though the limb, and into the leaf.
Then, that creates water vapor.
First there is a tree. Treeshave many parts
they have a root , tree , and limb. Then there is a peliole. This is were the leave hangs from. Inside a tree theree is a xylem and pleam. When it rains the water goes up the roots to the xylem and then to the trre then the water turn into vapor
This is just a simple tree.
It has roots, trunks and limbs.
Now you can see that a leaf has a petiole conneting it to the limb. The rest is just the leaf.
Some structures of the trunk is the xylem and phloem.
When it rains,
the water goes up thorugh the roots,
then up the xylem,
up the limb to the petiole.
Where it goes to leaf.
When it's there the water turns into water vapor.
This is called Transpiration!
Hi Guys:
These all look good so far, aside from a few spelling and grammar mistakes that we can easily fix in class.
One question that I would like for you to consider, however, is why the tree would bother to transport water up to the leaves in the first place if it is just going to evaporate???
Also, as I told a couple of you in class, we are going to record your voice overs and then there is a fairly easy way to synchronize the voice over with the animation. So start loosening up those vocal cords!
first,there are three main parts to the transpirtion of the water to the rest of the trees .They are:roots(where it begin),trunk(where it starts to spread to the limbs),limbs(where the water is taken to the piole),and at the piole it travel to the leaf where it evaporates.
I am posting the audio file for scigirlygirl along with instructions:
You will need to open up two web browser windows, with the animation in one window and the voice over in the other window. Open the animation window first by clicking the link below:
Transpiration AnimationThen open the audio file below. Change the size of the windows if necessary so that both the animation and your audio player can be accessed at the same time. I've allowed a second or so at the beginning of the audio file, so press the play button for the audio, then the play button for the animation.
scigirlygirl voice overYou may have to let both files run their course first, then synchronize. For some reason the files run automatically upon opening, and I've not found a simple way to stop them before they are finished.

to you thi might be a tree(any old tree;one out of millions)but it has many parts to it.It has roots ,lims ,and a trunk the rest is the leaf.
Inside is the xylem and pholem.
If it rains the water travels from the roots ,to the xylem ,to the limb ,to the petiole and then the leaf.
In addition to this it turns to water vapor.
What you just saw is called transpiration!!!!!!!!
sorry for reapeating the same thing
