Cache Valley Population Analysis Assignment

INSTRUCTIONS FOR TODAY'S ASSIGNMENT

Today you will be analyzing the population characteristics of 10 different cities/towns in Cache County.  After analyzing the population data, you will answer the following questions.

1.  Which city/town in Cache County has the HIGHEST population density?

2.  Which city/town in Cache County has the LOWEST population density?

3.  Which city/town in Cache County had the HIGHEST percent population growth between 2000 and 2010?

4.  Which city/town in Cache County had the LOWEST percent population growth between 2000 and 2010?

Before you start researching, I want you to take a pre-test where you will answer those four questions just giving your best guess.

LINK TO CACHE COUNTY POPULATION DATA PRE-TEST

I have compiled all the data you will analyze on a Google Sheet.  All the data you will need to answer those four questions can be found at the link below:

LINK TO CACHE COUNTY POPULATION DATA.

After you have analyzed the data and answered the four questions above, enter you answers at the link below.

LINK TO CACHE COUNTY POPULATION DATA POST-TEST


In order to get points for this assignment, you must complete the pre-test, the post test, and get the questions right on the Post-Test.

Unit 8 Study Guide: Populations and Human Effects on the Environment

Below is a link for the Unit 8 study packet.  This packet was assigned on Dec 13th and is due on Thursday December 21st at the beginning of your class period.

In order to receive a grade for this assignment, students must receive a score of 80% or higher.  Students can submit a response for this study packet once a day until the due date.  STUDENTS WHO DO NOT RECEIVE A SCORE OF 80% ON THIS PACKET BY THE DUE DATE WILL RECEIVE A ZERO FOR THIS ASSIGNMENT.

Once a student has passed this packet with a score of 80% or higher, they may continue to take the packet to try and improve their score up until the due date.

This study packet is an open-book, open resource assignment. Students can use whatever resources they wish to answer the questions in this packet.

Tip 1:  If you have an email address, and enter your email address into the form you will receive an email with your score.

Tip 2:  If you take the packet and your score remains a zero, that means you did not score 80% or higher and you need to try the packet again.

Biomass pyramid activity

In this activity students will us data from trail cameras to build a biomass pyramid from Gorongosa National Park in Africa.

1.  Sign up for a Zooinverse account:  LINK TO SIGN UP

2.  After you have signed up, go to the Wildlife Cam and click start: LINK TO WILDLIFE CAM

3.  The Gorongosa field guide can help you find information on the animals in this activity.  LINK TO GORONGOSA FIELD GUIDE

4.  View the 25 assigned pictures from the trail cameras.  For each picture you should do the following

• Identify and list each species of animal in that picture (use the field guide)
• Record how many of each species of animal you count in that picture

5.  Classify each species of animal that you saw in the trail cam pictures as a primary consumer, secondary consumer, tertiary consumer, etc.  (Use the field guide for information on what each species eats)  Use the most commonly eaten source of food to classify each animal.

6.  Group the animals together by consumer type (i.e all the primary consumers together, all the secondary consumers together, etc).

7.  Calculate the total weight of each of the groups of consumers.  To do this:

• Calculate the total weight of each species in that group by multiplying the total number of each species counted by the average weight of that species
• Add the total weights of all the animals in a consumer group together

8.  Calculate the total weight of ALL the animals seen in the trail cam pictures.  To do this:

• Add the total weights of the primary consumers, secondary consumers, and tertiary consumers

9.  Calculate what % of the total weight each consumer group represents.  To do this:

• Divide the total weight of each consumer group by the total weight of all the animals.  Example: (total weight of primary consumers)/(total weight of all animals)

10.  Construct a biomass pyramid.

11.  Enter you results using this form:  LINK TO FORM

Food Webs and Competitive Exclusion Simulator

Below is a link for a food web and competitive exclusion simulator.  This assignment was done in class on Tuesday Nov 29th.

LINK TO FOOD WEB SIMULATOR

You will use this simulator to answer the following questions:

1.  If you select just two plants and run the simulation, after 100 days only one of the plants is left and the other plant is no longer in the ecosystem.  Why did the one plant disappear?

2.  Create a food web so that all three species of plants survive the 100 days and are still in the ecosystem.  Draw the food web on a piece of paper.

3.  Create a food web using all 9 species.  Draw your food web on a piece of paper.  Then run the simulation for 100 days.  At the end of the 100 days record the population for all 9 species on your paper.

4.  Remove one species from the food web you created in question 3.  Now run the simulation again for 100 days.  At the end of the 100 days record the population of the 8 remaining species.  Which species were effected by removing that one species from your food web.

5.  Challenge: create a food web that will allow for all 9 species to survive for 100 days.  You will likely have to try several different food webs to make this work.  When you find the one that works, write that food web on a piece of paper, record the population of each species after 100 days, then graph the population graph for each species.

I had a family emergency last night that requires me to stay home today.  So the test has been postponed one day, we'll take the test on Friday when I am back.  Pigeonetics assignment will also be due on Friday now.

For today (Thursday) you should do the following:

1.  Finish watching any videos you haven't watched

2.  Work on your study packets

3.  Work on pigeonetics if you haven't finished it yet.

4.  Do research and work on the dog genetics assignment.

If you have done all of those things, there is a video clip on EdPuzzle from the movie Gattaca.  Gattaca is a science fiction movie where society has fully adopted genetic testing of all people.  Watch the 6 minute video clip and then answer the questions at the end.  The questions are open ended questions and I expect you to write at least 2 paragraphs worth for each question.
