Standards
- 2-LS4-1. Make observations of plants and animals to compare patterns of diversity within different habitats.
- 3-LS4-3. Construct an argument with evidence that in a particular habitat some organisms can thrive, struggle to survive, or fail to survive.
- 3-LS4-2. Use evidence to construct an explanation for how the variations in traits among individuals of the same species may provide advantages in surviving and producing offspring.
- 4-LS1-1. Construct an argument that plants and animals have internal and external structures that function together in a system to support survival, growth, behavior, and reproduction.
- 5-LS2 Ecosystems: Interactions, Energy, and Dynamics
- Ecology: Interactions of Living Systems and the Environment
- 7-LS2-1. Analyze and interpret data to provide evidence for the effects of resource availability on organisms and populations of organisms in an ecosystem
- 7-LS2-2 Construct an explanation that predicts patterns of interactions among organisms across multiple ecosystems.
- B-LS4-4. Construct an explanation based on evidence for how natural selection leads to adaptation of populations
- B-LS2-6. Evaluate claims, evidence, and reasoning that the complex interactions in ecosystems maintain relatively consistent numbers and types of organisms in stable conditions but changing conditions may result in a new ecosystem.
- B-LS2-8 Evaluate evidence for the role of group behavior on individual and species chances to survive and reproduce.
