Nitrogen Passport Reflection

1. Why didn't everybody go to the same stations in the same order?
Since everyone started at different stations and the different number everyone rolled, the chance everyone had the same was very low. Some may start at the animal waste, some river, and some atmosphere. Also, dies controlled where we wented and what cycle we headed to. We cannot conrtrol the order of the stations we went in this activity.

2. Did you go to the same stations twice? If so, what does this tell us about cycles?
I did go to the same stations twice. The cycles repeats, but it doesn't
have to start at specific point in the cycle. In other words, the cycle can start any point of the cycle and will go back to the same point where it starts.

3. Was there one station that seemed to have a lot of people at it ? Why or Why not?
Yes, the Atmosphere station seemed to have more people in the activity. I think it is because there are more ways to get to the atmosphere. It shows that in the cycle of the atmosphere, there are many resources.

4. What do you think the point of this activity was?
I think the point of the activity was to understand how nitrogen cycle around our environment, including the atmosphere, animal waste, river, dead plants.... I learned that nitrogen can travel from one place to other place and have its own cycle. Also, the atmosphere had more resource from different places.
