Science nitrogen passport

1. Why didn't everybody go to the same stations in the same order ?
The dies control where to go for everybody. However we can't predict what number is die going to take. Therefore everyone was having a different section. Except for some of us that had same results of dies.

2. Did you go to the same station twice? If so, what does this tell us about cycles?
Yes, I think cycle connects to everything. If you were in Animal's waste(poop), you throw a die, and whatever number you take you have to go, and in the next station, you will have to throw a die again, and it might include the animal's waste again. Therefore I think cycle connects to every stations .

3. Was there one station that seemed to have a lot of people at it? Why or why not ?
Yes, I think it's because, many stations include one station. Therefore for percentage, people are going to be in the station. EX) You are in a animal waste station, you throw a die, and you go to ocean and there is again choice for to go to animal waste station, you throw a die and fortunately, you go to soil, and there is also choice for to go back animal waste. Every stations include animal waste, and many people are going to be in the animal waste station.

4. What do you think the point of this activity was ?
I think the point of this activity was mainly to learn about nitrogen. Also I think if we know this for our daily knowledge, it's going to be helpful for emergency situations.
Another thing is to learn about how the nitrogen works for our body and for other things. What does nitrogen causes ? DNA? amino acids ? ... etc ..
Through this activity, I could learn a lot about nitrogen.
