  • Bellwork: 10/19/2011 Change 10% of your tank water if your water is clear, change 25% of your water if your water is cloudy Clear off your filters if they are obstructed & check your filters incase they need to be replaced (turn off the filter before checking). Make sure to scrub off the debris in the corners of your tank Clean off the tank lids
  • Slide 14
  • Aquatic Ecology
  • Slide 15
  • How do we study environments? Quadrant Studies: Tracking changes in a small section of the environment
  • Slide 16
  • How do we study environments? Sampling: Only measuring a small, random part of an environment
  • Slide 17
  • The Carbon Cycle
  • Slide 18
  • Carbon Cycle Carbon is found throughout the environment Carbon is found in the atmosphere and in water as carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) Carbon is found in organisms as organic molecules, like glucose (sugars) and fats Carbon is found buried in the ground as fossil fuels
  • Slide 19
  • Carbon Cycle Carbon is cycled, or moves 1)Atmosphere: Carbon is in the form of CO 2
  • Slide 20
  • CO 2
  • Slide 21
  • Carbon Cycle 2) Producers: Use photosynthesis to make sugars from CO 2 in the atmosphere (carbon is moved!)
  • Slide 22
  • C 6 H 12 O 6
  • Slide 23
  • Carbon Cycle 3) Consumers: Eat organic molecules and release CO 2 into the atmosphere during respiration, or die and go into the soil
  • Slide 24
  • CO 2
  • Slide 25
  • Slide 26
  • Carbon Cycle 4) Soil: decomposers break down organisms, releasing carbon into the atmosphere OR trapping it in the ground (fossils)
  • Slide 27
  • Slide 28
  • Carbon Cycle 5) Fossil Fuels: carbon from some dead organisms are trapped as fossil fuel until we burn it
  • Slide 29
  • Population Growth and Overpopulation
  • Slide 30
  • Slide 31
  • Slide 32
  • Populations Population: the number of organism from one species that live in a specific area Examples: the human population in different cities, the squirrel population in a forest, the grass population in a meadow
  • Slide 33
  • Populations Populations are affected by many resources. These include: The amount of food available in an area The amount of sunlight (if it is a plant population) The amount of water The competition for food/shelter The predators in an area
  • Slide 34
  • Population Growth Graphs A: Slow growth as a population begins to grow Birth Rate > Death Rate
  • Slide 35
  • Population Growth Graphs B: Exponential growth as population grows rapidly Birth Rate > Death Rate
  • Slide 36
  • Population Growth Graphs C: Slow-down of growth as population maxes out its resources, like food, water, or light Birth Rate > Death Rate
  • Slide 37
  • Population Growth Graphs D: Population reaches the maximum number supported by environment, the carrying capacity Birth Rate = Death Rate
  • Slide 38
  • Carrying Capacity Carrying Capacity: the maximum number of organisms in a population that are supported by the environment
  • Slide 39
  • Population Growth Graphs Carrying Capacity Reaching Limit of Resources Exponential Growth, no limiting resources
  • Slide 40
  • Carrying Capacity Populations are typically limited by resources They reach carrying capacity when there aren't enough resources to keep growing. Birth Rate = Death Rate. Logistic Growth!
  • Slide 41
  • Unlimited Growth If there are no limiting resources, populations grow exponentially. Birth Rate > Death Rate
  • Slide 42
  • Decline If population birth rate < death rate, the population will go down!
  • Slide 43
  • Which of the following graphs shows a population that is free of limiting factors?
  • Slide 44
  • Which of the following graphs shows a population that has reached carrying capacity?
  • Slide 45
  • How would a scientists determine the growth rate of a population? A.Birth Rate + Death Rate B.Birth Rate Death Rate C.Birth Rate x Death Rate D.Birth Rate / Death Rate
  • Slide 46
  • What statement best describes the population shown in the graph below? A.Birth rate = Death rate B.Birth rate < Death rate C.Birth rate > Death rate D.Birth rate = 0
  • Slide 47
  • What statement best describes the population shown in the graph below at time t? A.Birth rate = Death rate B.Birth rate < Death rate C.Birth rate > Death rate D.Birth rate = 0
  • Slide 48
  • Slide 49
  • Predator vs Prey Predator and Prey populations can affect one another 1.As prey increases, predator will increase in response 2.As predators increase, prey will decrease 3.As prey decrease, predators will decrease
  • Slide 50
  • Bellwork: 10/18/2011 Draw/describe the different steps/phases of the carbon cycle.
  • Slide 51
  • Human Population and Impact
  • Slide 52
  • Human Population Human population is currently about 7.0 billion Human population growth has been exponential
  • Slide 53
  • Slide 54
  • Population Pyramid Graphs Developing countries tend to have high growth rates, whereas developed countries tend to have stable growth. Population age distribution Larger at the bottom = more future growth Equal at each age = stable growth or even decline
  • Slide 55
  • Population age distribution Larger at the bottom = more future growth Equal at each age = stable growth or even decline
  • Slide 56
  • Slide 57
  • Slide 58
  • Overpopulation: The Bad The problems with overpopulation include abuse of resources: Deforestation Fossil Fuel Overuse Freshwater Overuse Pollution Lack of adequate food Non-native species
  • Slide 59
  • Deforestation Cutting down forests leads to a loss of biodiversity: not as many different species in an area Can affect local food webs, other species, and even medicine!
  • Slide 60
  • Slide 61
  • Freshwater Overuse Poor water quality, not enough freshwater in areas of need Polluted runoff from factories, farms, and intentional dumping
  • Slide 62
  • Slide 63
  • Pollution Acid rain: Sulfur and nitrogen gases released from factories into the air Sulfur dioxide: SO 2 Falls in rain drops, slowly impacts pH of water, soil, etc.
  • Slide 64
  • Slide 65
  • Pollution Ozone Layer Destruction CFCs: chlorofluorocarbons released into the air through old refrigerator and spray cans, destroy ozone layer (Stratosphere). Low ozone leads to high UV radiation UV radiation: can cause skin cancer through mutation
  • Slide 66
  • Slide 67
  • Introducing Non-native species Putting species into new ecosystems that arent supposed to be there The introduced species generally outcompete, or do better, than the native species. Example: pythons in the everglades.
  • Slide 68
  • Characteristics of an invasive species Rapid growth & reproduction High dispersal ability Tolerance of a wide range of environmental conditions A generalist when concerning food Often associated with humans
  • Slide 69
  • Slide 70
  • Slide 71
  • Slide 72
  • Slide 73
  • Slide 74
