Name: __________________________________________________ Period: _______ Unit 7A: Population Ecology Activities from Class Relating to LT Learning Target (LT) 1) Distinguish between biotic and abiotic factors. 2) Analyze how a population changes over time: a) Positive growth (natality/birth, immigration) b) Negative growth (mortality/death, emigration) 3) Analyze how populations are dispersed: a) Clumped b) Random c) Uniform 4) Solve mathematical story problems based on data from ecological research: a) Population size b) Rate of change (+ or -) c) Population density 5) Apply mathematical models to estimating populations sizes of species: a) Random sampling b) Capture-recapture c) Quadrat 6) Distinguish between factors that limit population sizes: a) Density-dependent b) Density-independent 7) Analyze data to determine patterns in population changes over time: a) Exponential growth b) Logistic growth c) Carrying capacity Vocabulary (words to know) - Abiotic - Limiting Factor - Population - Community - Carrying Capacity - Quadrat Textbook Chapters/Pages ⎽ Chapter 3.1: What is Ecology (p. 64-68) ⎽ Chapter 5.1: How Populations Grow (p. 130-135) ⎽ Chapter 5.2: Limits to Growth (p. 137-141) - Density - Dispersion - Niche - Biotic Name: __________________________________________________ Period: _______ Unit 7B: Community Ecology Learning Target (LT) Activities from Class Relating to LT 1) Analyze species interactions in a community: a) Symbiosis b) Mutualism c) Commensalism d) Predation e) Parasitism 2) Determine how a population will respond to specific community interactions: a) Competition b) Ecological niche 3) Analyze how an ecosystem can change over time: a) Primary succession b) Secondary succession 4) Apply mathematical models to determine level of biodiversity of a community.
