Biology Unit 3 Day 1

Learning: Students will learn about factors that impact populations by analyzing and interpreting data in writing using the language of science (predator-prey interactions, over-population, density-dependent factors, density-independent factors, keystone species, population dynamics, correlation between), check in partners, and sentence starters.

Questions:

1. What is population ecology? (book)
2. What factors affect populations of plants or animals? (book)
3. What impact does over-population have on an ecosystem? (book/brain)
