Biology Week 17 ecology review
Dec 9
QFD: Some people can’t be fooled because they were fooled too many times during their entire lifetime.”
?FD : Differentiate between the various types of natural selection
Learning Objective:Construct an explanation based on evidence that the process of evolution primarily results from four factors: (1) the potential for a species to increase in number, (2) the heritable genetic variation of individuals in a species due to mutation and sexual reproduction, (3) competition for limited resources, and (4) the proliferation of those organisms that are better able to survive and reproduce in the environment
HS-LS2-8. Evaluate the evidence for the role of group behavior on individual and species’ chances to survive and reproduce.
1. notes on community ecology
2) Explantation of final project final exam
3. seating chart

QFD : December is the cruelest month, breeding lilacs out of the dead land, mixing memory and desire, stirring dull roots with spring rain.” ― T.S. Eliot, The Waste Land
?FD : how do species compete for survival ? List a few ways
Learning Objective:Construct an explanation based on evidence that the process of evolution primarily results from four factors: (1) the potential for a species to increase in number, (2) the heritable genetic variation of individuals in a species due to mutation and sexual reproduction, (3) competition for limited resources, and (4) the proliferation of those organisms that are better able to survive and reproduce in the environment

QFD: the world is its own magic.” ― Shunryu Suzuki
?FD : Have you ever created a website before ? Do u remember the one we created at the beginning of the school year and your password?

QFD : rain in April is abominable,”Like a slap in the face when you expected a kiss.”
?FD : Describe and analyze the methods scientists use to prove the theory of evolution
Learning Objective: HS 2-7 Design, evaluate, and refine a solution for reducing the impacts of human activities on the environment and biodiversity.*
Evaluate the evidence for the role of group behavior on individual and species’ chances to survive and reproduce.
1. community ecology project
Dec 13 2019
QFD : April showers bring May flowers.. Unless you live near coachella , then your flowers die due to the rain precipitated by the patrons ..
?FD : Describe how genes play a role in evolution of species, be specific
Learning Objective: HS 2-7 Design, evaluate, and refine a solution for reducing the impacts of human activities on the environment and biodiversity.*Evaluate the evidence for the role of group behavior on individual and species’ chances to survive and reproduce.
1) film about community ecology species
2) finish poster project
Ecology Projects – Partners or groups of 3
Pick 1 of 2 CP honors must complete both sections
Gaining an understanding of ecology requires some work. Your students can gain that understanding by completing projects that are focused on ecology. Visual and 3-D models of ecosystems help students comprehend the interactions between species and their environment as well as within and between different species.
Shoebox Ecosystem Project
Materials
* plastic shoebox with lid
* clay or Play-doh
* dirt
* water
* rubber animals and plants
The Shoebox Ecosystem Project can be used to demonstrate your knowledge of a healthy community of species. On the top of the box you will type and display the problems your species faces to survive. You will include everything you learned this semester in your presentation.
Project guidelines
You must demonstrate your knowledge of both the ecology and evolution Standards by creating a ecological community in a shoe box. You must also write a page paper that includes all aspects of competition, predation, and the niche. Who what where when and why are also necessary to describe your community and the living and non living factors that affect your species carrying capacity.
Part 2 choose one of the following projects to investigate and you must describe The Who what where when and why on a poster board and include proof that you did actually complete the activity .
these are the project
