Reviewing Interactions, Learning about Niches and Sampling





Today we reviewed the different types of interactions organisms can have as well as the factors that influence the distribute of both plants and animals.

Moving forward, we finished the guided notes packet and started to talk about different types of sampling.  On Wednesday, you will practice sampling using both a transect and a quadrat, since these are sampling techniques we will use on Academic Travel.

You have two parts for your homework:

Part 1:  Use the example below (from slide #12 of Mr. T's Option G1 PowerPoint) and find the following information for an organism from your food web. 

You need to include:
The scientific name of the organism
A description of its habitat
Nutrition
Predators
Interactions with surrounding species
Reproductive habits.

You must also cite your sources for this information.


Part 2:
Read and take notes on page 352.  Complete the DBQ.  Relax, it's a three point DBQ.

This is due on Wednesday.
