Environmental Science
Delve into the world of ecology and evolution through the study of ecosystems, adaptation, biodiversity, and more. Explore the relationships between living organisms and their environments, and gain insights into the processes of natural selection and evolution. Discover the importance of biodiversity in sustaining life on Earth and prepare for quizzes to test your knowledge. Dive deep into topics such as salinization, habitat importance, and organism interactions in this engaging journey through environmental science.

Presentation Transcript
Environmental Science Week 3 UNIT 2: Ecology CH 4 7 CH 4 The Organization of Life 8/31 9/4
8/31 Ecosystems: Everything is Connected UNIT 2 Chapter 4 Obj. TSW learn how everything is connected by understanding biotic and abiotic resources needed in habitats. P. 22 NB 1. What is the difference between biotic and abiotic factors? 2. Write the level of organization in an Ecosystem. 3. Explain how habitats are important to organisms.
8/31 Agenda Tomorrow we walk to the garden. Farm to Fork Aeries log in (5 points) Today finish entering data for Salinization Lab Have title page done. Start research for why Salinization is important. How does it affect agriculture?
9/1 Evolution CH 4.2 Obj. TSW explain the process of evolution and how it impacts our environment. P. 24NB 1. Explain the process of evolution by means of Natural Selection. 2. Explain adaptation as it relates to evolution. 3. How do pests and weeds develop a resistance to insecticides and herbicides?
9/2 Adaptation to the environment CH 4.2 Obj. TSW learn how Natural Selection and Artificial Selection are different. P. 26 NB 1. Why are Darwin s Finches a good example of Natural Selection? 2. Explain Coevolution and give an example. 3. Explain Artificial Selection and give an example.
Salinization Lab - Today Work with a Partner Explain what Salinization is and why it is important? Use this for your Background Information part of your lab. Make your Title Page Research Background information Enter data into Excel
9/3 The Diversity of Living Things CH 4.3 Obj. TSW explain how important it is to encourage Biodiversity in everyday life. P. 28NB 1. How are Bacteria and Fungi important in the environment? 2. How can insects affect humans in positive and negative ways? 3. Describe how organisms interact and depend on each other for survival?
9/4 Review for Quiz CH 2 4 Obj. TSW score well on their quiz to make their environmental science teacher proud P. 30 NB 1. CH 3 What are the 4 layers that make Earth an integrated system? 2. CH 3 There is an Earthquake in Zimbabwe with a magnitude of 4.0, then there is an Earthquake in San Francisco with a magnitude of 7.0, how many more times. How many times greater in magnitude is the san Francisco Earthquake? 3. CH 4 What are the levels of organization for an Ecosystem.
