1 Jurassic Park Study Guide Pages Stegosaur 1-5. On the tour through the park, Ellie s group stopped to investigate a stegosaurus. Describe the stegosaurus using at least 5 details:,,,, Ellie noticed that the stegosaur had a strange odor, like. She also noticed on its tongue. The stegosaur was clearly sick. Harding explained that the stegosaur had to eat a minimum of of plant matter every day to keep going. It was clear that the animal was suffering from being poisoned by something. She noticed, a low, poisonous, delicate shrub across the field. Harding explained that the stegosaurus doesn t eat the toxic plants, but Ellie goes to investigate. Harding also explained that the stegosaurs only seem to be sick per week While Ellie and Grant investigate the plants, they find piles of. In your own words, explain what is the purpose of these (3 points)? Meanwhile, Malcolm is explaining to Gennaro more on the chaos theory. Computers were built in the late in order for scientists to predict. Malcolm says that because of, you will never be able to predict weather for more than a few days. Put your thinking caps on: according to Malcolm, how does chaos theory apply to Jurassic Park. What does the history of evolution tell us (3 points)? Back to Ellie and Grant. They are excited because they found a piece of. This new find probably belongs to a (name of dinosaur). This find has led them to conclude that the dinosaurs are.

2 Control (pg. 160) 1. What is Hammond s response to the very last answer you wrote down? 2-5. Malcolm has Arnold run the computer program that counts all the animals on the island. It turns out that there are more dinosaurs on the island than they thought. Nedry explains that the computer allows the operator to search for a specific number of animals. They always searched for a base count of animals because they assumed there could not be more. It turns out, the park has more than animals. What is Hammond s reaction as the computer keeps counting more and more animals. Whom does he blame (2 points)? What other dinosaurs are breeding?,,,. Grant concludes that they are breeding in different sites around the island. Breeding Sites 1. Why hasn t anyone seen the raptors building nests or eating the eggs of other dinos? 2-3. What problem did the park have that just seemed to fade away without anyone investigating why? How did the problem go away? 4. Dr. Wu can not understand how the dinos are breeding because he made them all female. Grant wants to know if Wu ever included, specifically, DNA in the making of the dinos, because this may hold the answer. Wu isn t sure Everyone decides to split into 2 groups: a group that will head back to get something to eat, and a group that will stay and investigate further. Describe how the groups split up who stays, and who heads back in the Land Cruisers? 7. Why isn t Malcolm proud that he was right about the Park all along?

3 8-12. On the way back, Malcolm tries to explain to Grant about the chaos theory. Chaos theory proposes that sudden, irrational changes are built into our existence. Straight linearity simply. Real life never occurs as a series of events that follow neatly one after another. Life is a series of encounters in which a single event may change in a wholly, even devastating way. That is the deep about the structure of the. 13. As the Land Cruisers take the group back to the resort buildings, the kids notice something on one of the shipping boats. Grant takes a look with the binoculars. Describe what he sees: 14. What happens when Grant tries to contact the control room? In the control room Muldoon tries, unsuccessfully, to contact the Land Cruisers. He thinks the problem is due to, but the problem is actually because of what? Back outside, the Land Cruisers suddenly and the floodlights. They are stuck in the paddock. The power is working in the control building, but not working in With the power out, all the are disarmed and any door can be opened by anybody. This was not an accident though. Dennis Nedry had it that way. He had built in a so he could always have access to the system in case there was a problem. Nedry is annoyed with Jurassic Park for a few reasons, including. 25. Why does Nedry feel as though he is being blackmailed? Remember back to page 69, the Airport chapter. Now we can fill in some blanks. If you remember, (name) from corporation (InGen s competition) approached Nedry to do what? Why?

4 Using a fake can of, Nedry took a total number of embryos. As he left the facility, he noticed something that looked like a in the Jeep parked outside. Meanwhile, Muldoon is angry because it appears that Nedry has turned off all the in the park, which also turns off all the as well. Muldoon also notices that someone stole his. We know that stole it. The Main Road (pg. 181) 1-5. This is one of the most exciting chapters in the book. What did Ed Regis do after the Tyrannosaur roared? Then what did he do?. What happened to Timmy and Lex after the Tyrannosaur attacked?. What happened to Malcolm?. What did Grant realize about the Tyrannosaur? (this realization probably saved his life) Return 1-3. As Harding, Ellie and Gennaro headed back to the facilities in their jeep, they were blocked by a. Since there was nothing but on the radio, they decided to take a special second road system that was designed for Nedry 1-4. The electrified fences in Jurassic Park are usually surging with volts, but Nedry could open it with his bare hand because. He got in his jeep and headed for. Why was Nedry going to this place? 5-7. After almost crashing into a concrete barrier, Nedry realized he was! After investigating for a minute, he heard a gurgling sound and realized he was at the. He then accepted the fact that time had run out and he didn t have a choice but to go back to the control room and do what?

5 8. As Nedry attempted to get back to his jeep, a dinosaur began chasing him. Describe what it looked like What did the dinosaur do to Nedry s neck and eyes? How did it affect Nedry? 11. What ultimately happened to Nedry? Bungalow 1. This chapter opens with Wu and Hammond eating dinner together. Wu is stunned by the new fact that the dinos are breeding. He is also surprised at how Hammond is reacting to everything. Describe how Hammond is reacting to all the new problems. 2. Hammond finally admits to holding some fears about the park. To Wu s surprise, what does he fear? 3-6. Hammond plans on expanding Jurassic Park to other parts of the world such as and. Conservatively speaking, he will make dollars a year if all goes according to plan. Because Hammond has bought his own island, he doesn t have to follow any government s rules but his own. He wants Jurassic Park to be purely for for children, not for scientific research As Ellie, Gennaro and Harding continue on in their jeep, they see a flock of (name of dino), which is odd because these dinosaurs usually don t travel at night. They are attracted to and have a very sensitive sense of. The group decides to follow the dinosaurs. Put your thinking caps on: what are the dinos attracted to? Tim 1-4. When Tim awoke from the Tyrannosaur attack, he realized his car was where? How was Tim able to exit the car?

6 . After escaping, Tim went to look for his sister. He found the in the wrecked jeep to help him find his way back to the road where he found Lex s with mud on it. Then he heard Lex whimpering Back at the lab, Wu decides to do some investigation in the Fertilization room. He still isn t clear why Grant thought DNA was important. Wu notices the temperature on the freezer door had spiked, which means. We know that it was who had been in there to steal. Forgetting about the freezer, Wu s computer is able to tell him that the breeding dinosaurs did in fact have or DNA. Lex 1. Tim found Lex curled up in a. She was badly frightened. Grant was okay too; he had been looking for Tim Ed Regis was okay too. If you remember, he ran away when the Tyrannosaur attacked. Describe his hiding place: He felt ashamed because. He believed that if the kids were still up there on the road, they could never and there was basically nothing he could do to help them, so there was no point in looking for them. As he was sitting there in the dark, he realized there were all over him sucking his blood! 6. Grant, Tim and Lex are finally together. They see Ed Regis a little ways down the road, but they do not go to him because they noticed another dinosaur stalking him. Describe this dinosaur: 7. What does this dinosaur do to Ed Regis? The Road (pg. 221) 1. This chapter begins with Muldoon driving with Gennaro to find the kids, Grant, Malcolm, and Ed Regis who are lost in the park. Let s review: what is Muldoon s job at Jurassic Park?

7 2-3. Muldoon and Gennaro stop the car because they see something lying in the road. What is it, and to whom does it belong? 4-5. They drive more and find the jeep that Timmy was in. It is destroyed. What do they find inside the jeep and what does this object tell them about Timmy s status? 6-7. Muldoon notices footprints and follows them, hoping it will lead him to Timmy and the others. Whom does he find? What has happened to this person? Control (pg. 229) 8-9. In this chapter, Arnold and Dr. Wu are able to use the computer to trace what Nedry did on the computer a few hours ago. They discover that he built in a trap door that links the and the, and then turned those two systems off, giving him complete access to every place in the park. In the Park (pg 233) Meanwhile, Grant, Lex, and Tim are lost in the (dino name) paddock, trying to find a way out. It s (time) at night. Tim learns that Grant s wife is and Ellie Sattler is Grant s. Grant climbs a tree to find a pace to sleep and he sees a small building ¼ mile away. What two obstacles do they (Grant and the kids) have to overcome to get to this building?
