Ecology 3rd Quarter
100 points
~Disclaimer: Please make sure that with your chosen ecosystem, you can answer all steps in full
detail~
Step 1: Identify Your Ecosystem and Describe (25 points)
β’ What is your ecosystem?
β’ Where is your ecosystem located? Please provide a specific location (i. e. Bryce Canyon National
Park in Utah)
β’ What does it look like? Please provide 5-7 sentences to describe.
β’ Please provide at least 5 pictures of your ecosystem.
β’ Is your ecosystem a result of primary or secondary succession? Please describe how the
succession began (i. e. if your ecosystem is secondary, what major disturbance happened?)
Step 2: Identify the Biome that your Ecosystem Exists in (10 points)
β’ Is your ecosystem in either an ocean biome, desert biome, grassland biome, forest biome, or
tundra biome? (i. e. Bryce Canyon National Park would be the desert biome)
β’ After choosing a biome where does it classify within your biome? (i. e. Bryce Canyon could be
considered as a semi-arid, or hot/dry desert)
Step 3: Identify what exists in your ecosystem and how they interconnect (30 points)
β’ What are the main abiotic (at least 5 please) and biotic (at least 5) factors?
β’ Identify at least 3 different types of habits and what animal lives in them?
β’ Provide at least 2 types of generalists and 2 types of specialists.
β’ Provide at least 3 major food chains in your ecosystem, please be sure to identify at least one
producer, one consumer, and one decomposer in each of the different food chains.
β’ Identify three different types of microorganisms and where you can locate them.
β’ Provide one example of each type of ecological relationships inside your ecosystem-mutualism,
commensalism, parasitism, predator vs prey, and competition (should be five examples total).
Step 4: Identify at least 2 types of BCM cycles (Biogeochemical Cycles) (10 points)
β’ Identify at least 1 gaseous BCM cycle
β’ Identify at least 1 sedimentary BCM cycle
Step 5: The place of your Ecosystem (20 points)
β’ Identify 3 ways in which your ecosystems benefit the world or its surroundings
β’ Identify 3 ways your ecosystem is being threatened or harmed
