We are continuing to study life cycles in science. Today we looked closely at goldenrod galls. These little balls are found on the stem of goldenrod plants. The goldenrod gall fly lays its eggs on the stem of the goldenrod plant and the little larva crawls into the stem. The plant then forms a lump around the maggot. After doing an observational drawing in our science journals, we cut the galls open to reveal the little maggot inside. |
