Iris has been studying an invasive population of snails. This particular snail has no local predators‚ so the population grows wildly. She has observed that the population follows an exponential rate of growth for fifteen years. 1. Create your own exponential function‚ f(x)‚ which models the snail population. You will need to identify the principal population of the snails and the rate of growth each year. Explain to Iris how your function shows the principal population and the rate of growth‚ in

Carbon Dioxide Understanding and Production in Elodea‚ Snail‚ and Goldfish Introduction This report discusses an experiment to study the rate of aerobic cellular respiration in aquatic organisms which are Elodea (aquatic plant)‚ Snail‚ and Goldfish‚ by measuring carbon dioxide production. Because ectothermic organisms (Elodea‚ snail‚ and goldfish) were placed in completely covered beaker‚ each organism would produce different amount of carbon dioxide.

The animal that was chosen for our team was the Manus Green Tree Snail‚ and this snail species is endangered. There is only to two main risk to the existence of the species: habitat destruction and over collection. The habitat destruction is the greatest threat to the Manus Green Tree Snail. Over collection is less of a threat than the habitat destruction. Mostly people buy the shell of the snail which protect the snail which causes the endangerment. To help this problem‚ I.A.R.F’s Environmental

Land Snail Practical Write Up Land snails are used as an archaeological methodology of reconstructing the past and are an environmental method that can fill in the gaps of other methods. For example‚ pollen and macroscopic plant matter study show the general change of a large area and only survive when waterlogged. Chalk lands are prime archaeological landscapes useful for study and land snail evidence can survive in them where other evidence cannot. Also‚ as oppose to representing a large scale
