Levels of Ecological Organization
A "niche" is the resources that are used by an organism. Examples of a niche include:
What is the estimated carrying capacity for this population?
What happens to the population that exceeds the carrying capacity?
In 2000, about how much larger was the population in Bergen County compared to New York City?
The line graph below shows the average amount of dissolved nutrients in a body of water each year from 1998-2003.
Which human activity most likely affected this body of water between 2000 and 2003?
Determine if each human action has a negative or positive impact to our ecosystems.
Plant more trees after wood has been selected.
Move species to a new habitat.
Use hydroelectric power plants (instead of fossil fuels)
Use more fossil fuels.
Develop more efficient renewable resources
Conserve Energy by lowering thermostate during the winter.
