The garden in winter: bare trees, tracks in the snow and who sleeps where, sentence 9
A hibernating hedgehog's heart slows from about 190 beats a minute to about 20, and its body cools almost to the temperature of the air; it may wake a few times in winter and move nest.
Who acts: heart, body · What happens: hibernate, slow, cool, wake, move · To what, where: 190 beats, nest
This is a sentence of the lesson «The garden in winter: bare trees, tracks in the snow and who sleeps where» of the biology course of Mova's primary school. The page gives its syntax tree — a dependency tree in the style of Universal Dependencies — and its pragmatics clause by clause: who acts (heart, body), what happens, when and where, as Mova's frames read it from the tree.
