Climax communitya stable, mature community
that undergoes little or no
succession
Interdependence
Describe the consequences of
introducing non-native species into
an ecosystem and identify the impact
it may have on that ecosystem.
Learning Goal:
Explain how an invasive
species can disrupt a stable
community.
Explain how an
invasive
species can
disrupt a
stable climax
community.
Practice Test- Thursday (15 min)
CORE 40- Friday (60 min)
Questions may include:
•basic molecular structure and function of the four
organic compounds
•describing how work in cells is done by a variety
of organic molecules.
•features that are common to all cells in
comparison to those with unique features that
allow specific functions.
Questions may include:
•how the sun’s energy is captured and used to make
sugar that can be used as a form of energy or building
blocks of organic molecules.
•how matter and energy cycle through an ecosystem
•relationship between biotic and abiotic parts of
ecosystems
•describing how that relationship is changing due to
natural changes and human actions
Questions may include:
•How basic structure of DNA supports function
as a hereditary molecule that makes RNA and
proteins.
•How proteins determine the traits of an
organism
•How the genetic information from parents
determines phenotype in offspring.
Questions may include:
•describe process by which new cells are formed
from existing cells.
•how in multi-cellular organisms groups of cells
cooperate to perform essential functions within the
organisms
•describe the processes that generate genetic
variations between parents and offspring.
Questions may include:
•describing how biochemical, fossil, anatomical,
developmental, and genetic findings are used to
determine relationships among organisms
•how above relationships produce modern
classification systems
•understanding how modern evolutionary theory
explains the history of life on Earth and the similarities
among organisms that exist today.
