Basically this comment section: 1% people actually interested in learning this
99% of people who are doing this for their online school quarantine assignment and are therefore complaining and sympathizing with others in the comment section
Lmao
Im actually both, believe it or not. This is my assignment but I love science and I am interested in learning this.
@@kaedenplayz884 Me too
Im part of the 1%
Yup
this video: exists
everyone: *_l i k e i f t h i s i s y o u r o n l i n e c l a s s w o r k_*

ah yes, quarantine assignment
NSA why are you here?

Kpop Rules I’m in high school and in quarantine and yet I still gotta do this
High school assignment
i am here only because of school who else
Me.

What the heck me too
Me.
And just like that, my science homework is done! Thank you!!!
same
ok but drop the answers pls
oh i just realized it was 10 months ago :((
@@stinkychicjen8328 bruh
@@stinkychicjen8328 what is a decomposers role
Lmao this is my quarantine assignment.
same bro
ikr
this is my home schooled assignment
This is my regular Biology 9th grade school assignment
whos teachers are sending them these videos and then a google form that has nothing to do with the video
I understand their explanation more than my techer’s explanation
me too!, everytime its like this, infact every year.. XD
same
Agreed
meh too!😏😎
you should probably listen to your 'techer' during spelling 😂😂😂😂
no one:
snake: this is going straight to my (nonexistent) thighs
Real
anyone here in quarantine?
yep,my teacher assigned this to us
On one of my assignments my teacher asked "What does a decomposer do?" My reply "It decomposes". Next question "What would happen if there were no decomposers?" Reply "Nothing would get decomposed"
lol
are ur grades ok
common sensee rules
ez A+
It may be my online classwork, but I still find these videos both intresting and entertaining. I don't really get why people are complaining so much, it's not that hard to watch a couple of 6 minutes videos.
Snake: **orders frog legs and rabbit stew**
Also Snake: **sigh** "thats going straight to my legs"
I was like "food goes in your thighs?"
This is just comedy heaven. The jokes are so bad they are just hilarious. The lack of touch with modern times the video has is just amazing.
This is one of their older videos though, it was made in 2015, so it would seem out of touch at this time.
Thanks you guys, that really helps with my high school science class. Youguys are lik our best friends or something!!!!
+Moto Soldier Yay, thank you! Best wishes for a great year in the science class :D
thnx m8
I actually do
I have to use this for my middle school science class.
Roronoa 'Ultimate Pirate Hunter' Zolo highschool science? you mean biology or something else
I struggled to understand this at school. I'm so glad you're making videos that are easy to digest and so accessible
I had the iCarly theme song stuck in my head while watching this
lol why
I know you see
somehow the world will change for me
and be so wOnDeRFuL...
@@tubrub :) lol
GREAT NOW ITS STUCK IN MY HEAD
you single-handedly broke my pencil, made me rip a sheet of paper, drop my phone and stubbed my toe, and made me chew my nails off. my nails are non-existent. thank you amoeba sisters. pure love from california!
I like how this explained my whole unit better than my teacher did
i just discovered you guys. thank you! I'll be playing this video in class tomorrow. Thank you for making bio more interesting ☺
I love your passion in every video- you guys are excited about everything! It's really encouraging and your videos are so concise AND entertaining- Keep going!
We greatly appreciate the encouragement---thank you for your kind words! :D
@@AmoebaSisters Are you still active?
@@davidmc13they upload every couple weeks
Your videos are insanely well done and helpful! My Biology and Science teachers use them all the time and they are so great and easily understandable. Thank you all for your hard work and all you do! :)
I saw a new video on this channel but took a few days to get around to watching it. In the interim I taught this exact lesson. This is another excellent video, and I know my class will enjoy it and find it a big help.
you really blessed me for my Ap Bio test. Thank you 😔
Who’s Quarantining with me
#Planetearth
you guys are the best. I've avoided so many headaches by watching your easy to understand videos. The little character's are so cute and adorable. Thank you so much for what you do for us student's.
online classes brought me here
Kids in quarantine that have to do this for science class: Allow us to introduce ourselves
we watched this in school a while ago, SO HELPFUL!
Tip: Press the 3 dots next to save to open the transcript, therefore getting the entire video put into words.
No one :
Not even me :
My teacher: saying thank you Amoeba Sisters , Subscribe
Me : Lol
I never comment on videos... but I'm currently studying for licensure exams to become a teacher. One of the exams require demonstration of all elementary science knowledge. Your videos have been a huge help to get concise information on a broad topic. Thanks so much!
Handouts are making the videos even more helpful and valuable. 🙏
Bio homework was fun today. Thanks Amoeba Sisters!
Everyone: who else is here from school?
Me: got it In my recommended
P P I’m here from school!!!! High school is slow!!!!
@@strawberryshortcake9779 this is my junior year work kill me now please
im in middle school
Thank you so much Amoeba Sisters! I used to not enjoy science, but your animating and explanations make it so much more enjoyable. Keep up the amazing work! 👍🏻
this makes it say easier tyvm i started watching your videos last year and i thought my teacher this year had no idea about this channel until she said to watch this video it really helps with the captions!
Thanks for the very clear and fun video! It would really help in my upcoming science test!
We in middle school and they’re still showing us things like we’re in grade 2 do they know we’ve matured
Lol im in 9th grade and my teacher told me to watch this.
@@nukediamondx samee bro
I'm a sophmore and I'm watching this... It doesn't have to do with maturity
I'm in high school and I still find these videos quite interesting and charming
Even during quarantine, my teachers still can make me laugh, especially with this video showing a snake claiming frog and rabbit will go to his thighs, yet snakes have no thighs.
Thank U!! very useful for my clasess. Do you have anything about mendel laws?
This is a Combination of Comedy and Education. Really gives the hype of learning on school instead of Bored. Thanks dudes👌🏻👍🏻
Watching this in my science class
i was in my bio class and then i see the pikachu and if you know me i were a pikachu jacket so i thought everyone would look at me in class but thankfully no one looked at me.
awesome video by the way it help me in my bio class
The pikachu? You mean the thing-a-ling?
what do you mean "thing-a-ling?"
Tony The Pikachu stop wearing a pikachu jacket thats gay
Patrick C wearing a pikachu jacket is awesome, not gay. i wish i had one of those. it’s too bad you’re a dork though, you could have had one of your own... *sigh*
i have a bio exam in 8 hours and am currently cramming by watching these vids
I was wondering, carnivorus plants eat flies or other small insects. but I heard they also can do photosynthesis.
then, what is the carnivorus plant's place in the food chain? the producer or whatever type of consumer it is?
love your videos soooo much by the way^^
Snake '' This is going to my thighes''
me '' You dont even have legs''
How does food web complexity affect the biodi-
versity of an ecosystem?
Watched this during class and just wanted to say I really enjoyed the video :)
If so much energy is lost during this food chain process, can’t we just eat the grass to gain maximum energy?
it'd be great if you could do a video on ecological competition and limiting factors!
I understand this more than my biology teacher
this is so trueeee hahahahahaha\
This really helped me get 95% on my grade 7 math test. Thanks!
yes, i would understand how this would help you on your math test......
math...
i have a question you know how decomposers can be on all of the levels you said only plants can be producers so can a decomposer only be the other three levels (yes this is my middle school hw)
1:55 THE ENERGY LEVEL IS ABOVE 9000 like if u understand the reference
hey sans
Nappa- Vegeta! what did you say his power level was?!?
Vegeta- I-It's over 9000!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Nappa- What?!?!? 9000?!?!?! thats impossible!!!!!!!!!
IT'S THE CIRCLE OF LIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIFE AND IT MOVES US AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL
Your the circle of life, I'm the beginning, and your the end.
It's not a circle. Energy cannot be reused or recycled.
@@sykechimpz4520 is that a pick up line lol
If I were to eat the creators of this show 🤔
In the circle. Th encircle of lifeeeeee
What if we like this if we found this on our own because we are interested in learning?
I just want to say think you for this video because it helped a lot to finish some of my assignments now in quarantine, you will probably never see this since the video is pretty old but still, thank you for helping me and others understand this.
Anyone else feel like they should start off their videos with HI SISTERS
Yaaas!
Nooooo
does anyone actually wanna watch these im here cause school
1:59 i appreciate the fact they arent putting memes that are irrelavent and trying to keep kids intersted good job :)
Really like this! Tells it out really well, as well as a hint of humor!
I like how this is my HW when everyone else’s was a year ago
...
Welp, gotta listen to these again for school.
Who else found this in their recommended 5 yrs later? Btw nice video it rlly helped me.
This helps so much, I wish my teacher would actually do his job and teach us but you dont get those anymore thanks
Lol
people: like if this is your quarantine assignment
me: that was posted a year ago-
I so love you guys:)
lilyrosedaisy2003 have a nice day
Please can you do a video all on the heart and how it works and cardiovascular disease
i have a question how can the decomposers can eat all of them?
Every comment: “This is my homework like if your teacher sent you during quarantine”
that was so useful for my classes! Thank you so much. Keep making awesome videos! :)
A Pokemon reference, Dragon Ball Z reference, AND a Harry Potter reference? Plus learning? You guys are awesome.
Where can I donate? Y’all have seriously help me so much.
IT’S OVER NINE *THOUSAND*
Now *KISS*
Ha ha 😂 nice 👍 👌
🙃
what?
dead meme revived
4:19 *sigh*THAT'S GOING STRAIGHT TO MY THIGHS.
this very sentence coming from a SNAKE made me question during science class.....
Snakes don't have thighs lol
split_ minds
felt that
Very well explained!! Good graphics too!
We watched this in my science class it was a great video.
Honestly, I love my science teacher because she's so nice and she sent me here to write a summary about it lol
my teacher has covid....and this was her assinment
1. your explanation is quite interesting
2. what if one of the consumers is gone and what will happen?
thanks for making science class fun Amoeba sisters!
everyone is complaining about having to watch this but you know damn well they'd rather watch this then read a book about it
so we all here huh?
Yep
Yup
thanks, that really helped with my science quiz!
We all love watching cute pink and purple blobs teach us about food chains in quarantine, riiight?
"So many frogs," = Francis Bonnefroy
I'm 5 yrs late...
Let's be honest, nobody is going to watch this out of pure interest. A teacher sent you here. *The End.*
I watch it for fun bro
I love this video a lot. It's well explained and perfect animation
This is so helpful!! All of this is going on to my cheat sheet!!
Hahahaha the energy level is over 9000
+Jason Ngai and the fact that she put "The Real Death Eaters" Harry Potter references for the win.
they watch dragon ball z
Bojun Huang ya boiiii
says the person who has a dead meme as their profile picture
Did... she just make a Dragon Ball Z reference? 1:53
also like if this is your quarantine school assignment
Yes
I’m using this to look for an example of a food chain and food web for a test question
what’s the decomposers role?
1:54 I mean, the memes dead, but I still think it’s funny.
ikr its ded
i suscribed
Does anyone know any channels similar to this one for chemistry
tony digiulio Hi Tony! While they may not be similar to our channel, Crash Course and Bozeman Science have excellent chemistry videos if you need help!
