Biomes Project Guidelines Biome - Name (maybe two interesting facts) - Location picture and description (latitude, longitude) - Topography picture and description (hilly, flat, elevation…) - Climate description (average temperature, average precipitation, seasonal changes) Food chain and Niche - At least 2 major food chains in a diagram - Chains have 3+ trophic levels and they are identified - All food chain terms, most note all that apply, are included in the diagrams o - - Producer, consumer, herbivore, omnivore, carnivore, scavenger At least 2 niches are identified o Would recommend selecting both form the food chains o What it eats, what eats it, and how it behaves Explain each Niche’s importance to ecosystem o How does it benefit the ecosystem - Identify the dominate plant(s) in the ecosystem - Identify the dominate species in the ecosystem Abiotic/Biotic - List and describe three abiotic factors (sunlight, precipitation, temperature, and soil) o - - Describe how the abiotic factors affect the ecosystem o In other words, how does the ecosystem react to these conditions? o Examples: Bears hibernate due to no food in the winters, which is a result of it being too cold If the water availability is low, the living organisms can go a long time without water List and describe three biotic factors o - Availability of water, shade, temperature, seasons, weather, soil, topography… Availability of water, shade, temperature, seasons, weather, topography… Describe how the biotic factors affect the ecosystem o In other words, how does the ecosystem react to these conditions? o Examples: Bears hibernate due to no food in the winters, which is a result of it being too cold If the water availability is low, the living organisms can go a long time without water Symbiosis and Adaptation - Example and description of parasitism - Example and description of mutualism - Example and description of commensalism - Need a picture of at least one of the symbiotic relationship - Give three examples of adaptations o Be specific on what they are and how it helps the species survive Succession and Major Threats - Identify and describe at least 1 natural threats to this biome o - Identify and describe at least 1 human threat to this biome o - Would this cause secondary succession? Example of Primary succession o - Would this cause secondary succession? Describe (this may be included in your diagram) and draw diagram Example of secondary succession o Describe (this may be included in your diagram) and draw diagram
