•Students will know a vital part of an ecosystem is the stability of its
producers and decomposers.
•Students will know that at each link in a food web some energy is stored in
the newly made structures but much energy is dissipated into the environment
as heat. This dissipation may be represented in an energy pyramid.
•Students will know how water, carbon, and nitrogen cycle between abiotic
resources and organic matter in the ecosystem and how oxygen cycle through
photosynthesis and respiration.
•Students know how fluctuations in population size in an ecosystem are
determined by relative rates of birth, immigration, emigration, and deaths.
•Students will know how to analyze changes
in an ecosystem resulting from changes in climate, human activity,
introduction of nonnative species, or changes in population
size.
•Students will know that biodiversity is the sum total of different kinds of
