ANALYZE THE POPULATION GRAPH, AND ANSWER THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS: 1) WHAT IS THE PROJECTED POPULATION OF THE US RIGHT NOW? 2) IN WHAT YEAR IS IT EXPECTED TO EXCEED 350 MILLION? BELLRINGER 3.24.15 ECOLOGY NOTES – DAY 1 SC.912.L.17.5#: ANALYZE HOW POPULATION SIZE IS DETERMINED BY BIRTHS, DEATHS, IMMIGRATION, EMIGRATION, AND LIMITING FACTORS (BIOTIC AND ABIOTIC) THAT DETERMINE CARRYING CAPACITY. ECOSYSTEM NOTES – DAY 1 (INB 61) SC.912.L.17.5#: ANALYZE HOW POPULATION SIZE IS DETERMINED BY BIRTHS, DEATHS, IMMIGRATION, EMIGRATION, AND LIMITING FACTORS (BIOTIC AND ABIOTIC) THAT DETERMINE CARRYING CAPACITY. LIMITING FACTORS? CARRYING CAPACITY? CARRYING CAPACITY IS THE NUMBER OF INDIVIDUALS OF A SPECIES THAT AN ENVIRONMENT CAN SUPPORT. THE FACTOR THAT HAS THE GREATEST EFFECT IN KEEPING DOWN THE SIZE OF A POPULATION IS CALLED THE LIMITING FACTOR. ECOSYSTEM NOTES – DAY 1 (INB 61) IN THE RAIN FOREST, THERE IS PLENTY OF RAIN FOR PLANTS TO GROW. MOST OF THE SUNLIGHT, THOUGH, IS ABSORBED BY THE TALLEST TREES, LEAVING LITTLE SUNLIGHT FOR THE PLANTS NEAR THE GROUND. IN THIS SCENARIO, THE CARRYING CAPACITY FOR PLANTS NEAR THE GROUND IS LIMITED BY WHAT FACTOR? ECOSYSTEM NOTES – DAY 1 (INB 61) IN THE RAIN FOREST, THERE IS PLENTY OF RAIN FOR PLANTS TO GROW. MOST OF THE SUNLIGHT, THOUGH, IS ABSORBED BY THE TALLEST TREES, LEAVING LITTLE SUNLIGHT FOR THE PLANTS NEAR THE GROUND TO USE. IN THIS SCENARIO, THE CARRYING CAPACITY FOR PLANTS NEAR THE GROUND IS LIMITED BY WHAT FACTOR? SUNLIGHT IS THE LIMITING FACTOR. ECOSYSTEM NOTES – DAY 1 (INB 61) SC.912.L.17.5#: ANALYZE HOW POPULATION SIZE IS DETERMINED BY BIRTHS, DEATHS, IMMIGRATION, EMIGRATION, AND LIMITING FACTORS (BIOTIC AND ABIOTIC) THAT DETERMINE CARRYING CAPACITY. CARRYING CAPACITY IS THE NUMBER OF INDIVIDUALS OF A PARTICULAR SPECIES THAT AN ENVIRONMENT CAN SUPPORT. THE FACTOR THAT HAS THE GREATEST EFFECT IN KEEPING DOWN THE SIZE OF A POPULATION IS CALLED THE LIMITING FACTOR. IMMIGRATION – THE MOVEMENT OF INDIVIDUALS INTO A POPULATION FROM ANOTHER POPULATION. EMIGRATION – THE MOVEMENT OF INDIVIDUALS OUT OF A POPULATION AND INTO ANOTHER POPULATION. ECOSYSTEM NOTES – DAY 1 (INB 61) SC.912.L.17.5#: ANALYZE HOW POPULATION SIZE IS DETERMINED BY BIRTHS, DEATHS, IMMIGRATION, EMIGRATION, AND LIMITING FACTORS (BIOTIC AND ABIOTIC) THAT DETERMINE CARRYING CAPACITY. IMMIGRATION – THE MOVEMENT OF INDIVIDUALS INTO A POPULATION FROM ANOTHER POPULATION. EMIGRATION – THE MOVEMENT OF INDIVIDUALS OUT OF A POPULATION AND INTO ANOTHER POPULATION. BIOTIC FACTOR – BASED ON THE WORD ALONE, WHAT DO YOU THINK IT IS? ECOSYSTEM NOTES – DAY 1 (INB 61) SC.912.L.17.5#: ANALYZE HOW POPULATION SIZE IS DETERMINED BY BIRTHS, DEATHS, IMMIGRATION, EMIGRATION, AND LIMITING FACTORS (BIOTIC AND ABIOTIC) THAT DETERMINE CARRYING CAPACITY. BIOTIC FACTOR – LIVING THINGS, LIKE PLANTS, ANIMALS, BACTERIA, FUNGI, PEOPLE, ETC. BASED ON THIS DEFINITION, WHAT DO YOU THINK AN ABIOTIC FACTOR IS? EXAMPLES? ECOSYSTEM NOTES – DAY 1 (INB 61) SC.912.L.17.5#: ANALYZE HOW POPULATION SIZE IS DETERMINED BY BIRTHS, DEATHS, IMMIGRATION, EMIGRATION, AND LIMITING FACTORS (BIOTIC AND ABIOTIC) THAT DETERMINE CARRYING CAPACITY. BIOTIC FACTOR – LIVING THINGS, LIKE PLANTS, ANIMALS, BACTERIA, ETC. ABIOTIC FACTOR – NON-LIVING THINGS, LIKE….

BIOTIC FACTOR – LIVING THINGS, LIKE PLANTS, ANIMALS, BACTERIA, ETC. ABIOTIC FACTOR – NON-LIVING THINGS, LIKE TEMPERATURE, WATER, WIND, SUNLIGHT, ROCKS, MINERALS, ETC. ECOSYSTEM NOTES – DAY 1 (INB 61) SC.912.L.17.5#: ANALYZE HOW POPULATION SIZE IS DETERMINED BY BIRTHS, DEATHS, IMMIGRATION, EMIGRATION, AND LIMITING FACTORS (BIOTIC AND ABIOTIC) THAT DETERMINE CARRYING CAPACITY. BIOTIC OR ABIOTIC, WHICH IS MORE IMPORTANT IN DETERMINING CARRYING CAPACITY? ECOSYSTEM NOTES – DAY 1 (INB 61) SC.912.L.17.5#: ANALYZE HOW POPULATION SIZE IS DETERMINED BY BIRTHS, DEATHS, IMMIGRATION, EMIGRATION, AND LIMITING FACTORS (BIOTIC AND ABIOTIC) THAT DETERMINE CARRYING CAPACITY. LIMITING FACTORS? CARRYING CAPACITY? THEY ALL MATTER, BECAUSE CHANGING ONE FACTOR IN AN ECOSYSTEM CAN AFFECT MANY OTHER FACTORS, LIKE POPULATIONS. ECOSYSTEM – DAY 1 TASK (ON PRINTER PAPER) SC.912.L.17.5#: ANALYZE HOW POPULATION SIZE IS DETERMINED BY BIRTHS, DEATHS, IMMIGRATION, EMIGRATION, AND LIMITING FACTORS (BIOTIC AND ABIOTIC) THAT DETERMINE CARRYING CAPACITY. ON THE FRONT: 1. DRAW AN ECOSYSTEM (RAINFOREST, DESERT, A HOME GARDEN, A FOREST, AN OCEAN OR A RIVER, ETC.) 2. DRAW AND LABEL AT LEAST 10 BIOTIC FACTORS, AND 5 ABIOTIC FACTORS. 3. COLOR IT.

ON THE BACK: 1. WRITE A PARAGRAPH EXPLAINING THE FOLLOWING: 1. DESCRIBE A CASE OF A IMMIGRATION AND ONE CASE OF EMIGRATION THAT’S HAPPENING IN YOUR PICTURE. 2. EXPLAIN HOW A CERTAIN LIMITING FACTOR IS HAVING AN EFFECT OF THE CARRYING CAPACITY OF YOUR ECOSYSTEM.
