Bella Sidoti - Lab 2 Project Journal

  1. By using OneZoom, I was able to identify the phylogenic position of the Curly Dock (or Rumex Crispus) which I observed in Lab 2. The Curly Dock is one of 10 species in the Rumex transiens family, which is a part of the larger category of Docks. The Docks category is found under the Polygonoideae group, which is found under the Caryophyllales, which is under the Pentapetalae, which is under the large category of Eukaryotes.
  2. All of the observations I made were in the same area meaning that all of the species observed have to undergo certain adaptations according to their shared climate. The climate in Montreal is very cold in the winter months, which requires from the life in the area an ability to adapt to lower temperatures. An example of this is when trees, from which some of the leaves I observed in the lab were from, need to adapt to the weather changes, they will go dormant and slow down their internal processes in order to stay alive through the winter.
  3. One adaptation for the Dandelion (or Genus Taraxacum) which I observed during the lab, is that, when the weather gets colder, the dandelions will form a new rosette. This rosette is the leaf-like formation at the bottom of the Dandelion, which enables it to stay more stable and alive during the hard months of winter.
