Science-Grade 4-Life Sciences
3c Many plants depend on animals for
pollination and seed dispersal, while animals depend on plants for food
and shelter.
Science-Grade 4-Life Sciences
2b Producers and consumers (herbivores, carnivores,
omnivores, and decomposers) are related in food chains and food webs,
and may compete with each other for resources
in an
ecosystem.
Science-Grade 4-Life Sciences
3a Ecosystems can be characterized in terms
of their living and nonliving components
Science-Grade 6-Earth Sciences
5a Energy entering ecosystems as sunlight is
transferred by producers into chemical energy through photosynthesis, and
then from organism to
organism in food webs.
Science-Grade 6-Earth Sciences
5c Populations of organisms can be categorized
by the functions they serve in an ecosystem.
Science-Grade 6-Earth Sciences
5e The number and types of organisms an ecosystem
can support depends on the resources available and abiotic factors, such
as quantity of light
and water, range of temperatures, and soil
composition.
Science-Grade 9 Grade 10 Grade 11 Grade 12-Life
Sciences
6b How to analyze changes in an ecosystem resulting
from changes in climate, human activity, introduction of non-native species,
or changes in
population size.
Science-Grade 9 Grade 10 Grade 11 Grade 12-Life
Sciences
6c How fluctuations in population size in an
ecosystem are determined by the relative rates of birth, immigration, emigration,
and death.
Science-Grade 9 Grade 10 Grade 11 Grade 12-Life
Sciences
6d How water, carbon, and nitrogen cycle between
abiotic resources and organic matter in the ecosystem and how oxygen cycles
via photosynthesis and
respiration.
Science-Grade 9 Grade 10 Grade 11 Grade 12-Life
Sciences
6e A vital part of an ecosystem is the stability
of its producers and decomposers.
Science-Grade 9 Grade 10 Grade 11 Grade 12-Investigation
and Experimentation
1i Analyze the locations, sequences, or time
intervals of natural phenomena (e.g., relative ages of rocks, locations
of planets over time, and succession
of species in an ecosystem).
