    Students should be able to evaluate the impact of environmental changes on the distribution of species in an ecosystem given appropriate information.

    Environmental changes affect the distribution of species in an ecosystem. How might changes to the environment affect species?

    These changes include: - temperature - availability of water - composition of atmospheric gases. What are potential environmental changes?

    Transect to investigate the affect of light on growth of e.g. daisies, measure abundance going from tree line to open field.

    The changes may be seasonal, geographic or caused by human interaction. What might be some causes of changes in the environment?
