  1. MYP Biology Warm-up HWK: Cornell Notes on Sec 14.4, pg 414-418 due Wed. Warm-up: Draw the graph; write the Q and best answer with explanation. Which point on the graph best represents the carrying capacity of the population? (Use your notes to help.)

  2. MYP Biology Warm-up • HWK: Cornell Notes on Sec 14.4, pgs 414-418 due Wed. • Warm-up: Write Q, best answer and explanation on your sheet. • Which change might cause a rapid rise followed by a rapid decline in reindeer populations shown here? • An increase in predators • A forest fire • A decrease in predators • A stable (unchanging) environment

  3. MYP Biology Ask Ms. Twanow to return work! Set out Notes on 14.4. Warm-up: Draw the chart below on your sheet. Read the article Fuzzy Noses Bad for Bats and fill in the chart.

  4. MYP Biology Warm-up Warm-up: Create a possible quiz question related to carrying capacity, limiting factors, or population growth. Use your notes to help. Make sure you identify the correct answer. Quiz a friend and see if they answer correctly!

  5. Ecosystem Vocabulary Add to your notes: Limiting Factor - an environmental factor that controls the growth or distribution of a population. Density-dependent factors - limiting factors that affect denser populations more than less crowded ones. Density-independent factors - limiting factors that affect populations regardless of density.

  6. Limiting Factors Card Sort Work with your partner to sort the cards into density-dependent and density- independent factors. Be sure you can support your decisions. After class discussion, record the factors in a T-chart in your notebook:

  7. Science Friday! Warm-up: Record questions on your sheet. Answer after watching the video. Turn in your warm-ups after the video. 1. How does the venus fly trap catch and digest its prey? 2. How does the pitcher plant attract, catch and digest its prey?
