MEMO To: Carrie Johnson From: Staff Biologist RE: Bacteria The first step in identifying the mystery organism is to know what kingdom it belongs to. It will belong to one of the following kingdoms: animals, plants, archaebacteria, eubacteria, fungi, or protista. Organisms are placed into these categories based on similarities or common characteristics. Some of the characteristics that are used to determine placement are cell type, metabolism, and reproduction. Examine your living organism and determine if it is a bacteria, achaean or a eukaryote.
If everybody did this, what might the impact on the health of our environment be? a. For example, how might these collective actions benefit our air and water quality? b. The health of the world’s forests?
Plant eukaryotic cells are made up differently from animal eukaryotic cells in that they have organelles that allow them to make their own food, their cell membrane is actually a cell wall that is rigid and made of cellulose. The video compares a cell to a city. They both have geographic limits, ruling government, power plants, landscape and roads, waste treatment plants, police force, industry, highways and all the things that a blooming city and a cell need to grow and function. 1. Robert Hooke – British Scientist who discovered cells.
Discussion 6. Which species appear to benefit from increasing fragmentation? Which species are negatively impacted? Based on your knowledge of environmental science, what could explain these observations? Support your answer with specific results from your data and ideas from your readings.
| Metaphysical ecology | Another branch of Ecophilosophy, a deep ecology in which combines, metaphysics and ecology. It aims to explain the world and the fundamental nature of what is in it (DesJardins, 2013). | Minimalism | Living with the bare essentials in life in order to preserve and conserve. | Ethical extensionism | The practice of extending beliefs, values, morals and standards to formerly ignored matters and issues (DesJardins, 2013). | Pluralism | Looking and trying to solve problem with multiple approach, this is when we look at problems and try to consider different approach (DesJardins, 2013).

Name:___________________________________ Biology 20 SDL Module 2 Ecosystems and Population Change [pic] Topic 3.1: Individuals, Populations, and Communities in Ecosystems 1. Read pages 78-84 in ‘Inquiry into Biology’. Pay attention to the key terms listed on page 78 of your textbook. 2. Explain and give an example of what a biotic component of an animal’s environment is?
Calonna Taylor Professor Osborne BSC2010C 9 February 2014 Beyond The Cells Purpose: The purpose of this lab report is to become familiar with the use of a compound microscope and the Gram Stain. Hypothesis: If you do not know how to use a Microscope or how to Gram Stain, then your results of your lab will come out inconclusive or just wrong. Part A: Cell Structures Materials & Methods: Materials: * Colored Pencils * Paper * Access to a scanner Methods: 1. View video “Using a Microscope.” 2. Look at the slides and identify the cell structure within.
It can be reflected in religious, political, cultural and other theories. The forms of Ecologism that are rooted in ‘shallow’ ecology which is seen as anthropocentric seek to reconcile anthropocentrism with ecological thinking. The term “Shallow ecology” was coined by Norwegian philosopher Arne Naess. Shallow ecologists also described as environmentalists and similar to liberal feminists. Shallow ecology has a shallow outlook on the environment and believes that we should only do something if it is for our interests, for example, we should save ecosystems but only if they are of value to us.
It is important to research on ways of controlling draught and limiting algae growth because it will mitigate further expansion of the Gulf of Dead Zone. References Bruckner, M. (2012).
