  1. Description: Goals: Examine how interactions between a species and its environment define a species niche. Explain how a species adapts to its niche. Begin looking at the specific species interaction relationships. This is in the form of a multimedia notes/lecture period on PowerPoint.

  2. Objectives: Day 6 List and Describe some of the adaptations of species use in predation symbiosis.

  3. Warm Up Q = Worksheet A = none

  4. Species Interactions - Symbiosis And you thought school was tough

  5. How does this relate to trophic levels?

  6. Trophic Levels Review ENERGY 0.1% 1% 10% 100%

  7. Vocabulary: (Think) Define these words in your notes as best you can.

  8. Vocabulary: (Pair) Compare your definitions with your neighbor. Improve upon each others.

  9. Vocabulary: (Share) Discuss as a class the definitions you developed and why.

  10. Adaptations of Predators Predation: Predator • Organism who eat otherorganisms • Secondary Consumers • Carnivores • Adaptations: • Speed • Sharp Teeth or Beak • Claws or Talons • Strength • Camouflage/Stealth • Good Senses • Group Hunting

  11. II. Adaptations of Prey • Organism eaten by other organisms • Primary & Secondary Consumers • Herbivores & Carnivores • Adaptations: • Speed • Size • Poison • Odor • Good Senses • Shelter • Mimicry (2 types): • Physical • Chemical

  12. Mimicry: imitating another organism as a means of defense or stealth What is this?

  13. Think about… I. Objective: List and Describe some the adaptations of species use in predation symbiosis. You will be designing a predator and prey that are competing for survival. Consider the adaptations of predators and prey and what each will need in order to capture or evade the other.
