221 Environmental Changes 4/1/2016 4/1/2016 EQ: What is the relationship between living things and their environments? Starter: 222 Environmental Changes Next Slide Practice: Quiz Connection/Exit: Answer the following 1. Which are caused by humans? 2.Which would and would NOT lead to genetic changes within a population? 3. Which could cause Extinctions? 4. Which could cause re-location of a populations, and/or Genetic Adaptations within a population/species? 5. How are populations affected by longterm environmental change? 6. How can a researcher determine if a population has adapted to a long-term environmental change? 7. How are populations affected by short-term environmental changes? Practice/Application: Long Term Short Term Starter April 1, 2016 AGENDA 8.11 C Explore how short-term and longterm environmental changes affect organisms and traits in subsequent population. 1.

Terms to remember Adaptations are traits that make an animal suited to its environment. Two Types: Structural Adaptations are inherited physical features of and organism. (Ex. White fur on a polar bear Behavioral Adaptations are things organisms do to survive. (Ex. Migration & hibernation) Biodiversity-The number of different species of plants and animals in an area Changes in environmental conditions can affect the survival of individual organisms and entire species. Long-term environmental changes, like climate change, can permanently alter an ecosystem, but over time the change may cause some genetic variations to become more favorable or less favorable in the new environment. If adaptations to the new environment are not present or do not develop, populations can become extinct. Short-term environmental changes, like "floods, don’t give populations time to adapt to change and force them to move or become extinct. Human activity affects natural systems through agriculture, resource consumption, and pollution from waste disposal and energy production. 221 Environmental Changes 4/1/2016 4/1/2016 EQ: What is the relationship between living things and their environments?
