Life Science Art Integration Tammy Davis EED 435 Instructor: Rachael Eggers February 13‚ 2012 Life Science Art Integration As we begin our unit on Animals and Their Environment‚ I thought it would be a good idea to include a couple of photographs and a skit. By incorporating these into our unit‚ we will help emphasize the importance of animal environments through visual art and performing art. Visual Art (Photographs): This photograph illustrates the importance of camouflage when choosing

A Temperate Deciduous Forest is one of many biomes in the world. The biome has its own set of location‚ climate‚ and type of wildlife.The Temperate Deciduous Forest is found in almost every continent on the earth. Its climate is in the temperature range‚ hence its name. But the wildlife is unique in its own way in this biome. Temperate Deciduous Forest is found in all of the continents except Africa and Antarctica. It covers almost 50% of the United States is covered by the Temperate Deciduous Forest

Abyssal Zone Steven Jevan 10.2 Located deeper than 2000 meters underneath the ocean surface‚ lies a biome that we have barely seen and realize. This unbelievable and incredible biome is called the abyssal zone. With a depth reaching down to 6000 meters‚ it is impossible to inhabit this biome. Conversely‚ certain organisms have managed to keep their survival in this very biome through particular processes. Initially‚ the abyssal zone and the living organisms inside it‚ suffers

(Map #1). California itself has five major biomes‚ some of which can be found at RSABG. Four of them are in the California floristic province and the fifth is in both the Great Basin and the Sonoran floristic province. Each of which contains many different types of communities in them. The California floristic province has the coniferous forest biome‚ the oak woodland biome‚ the grassland and marshland biome‚ and the chaparral and coastal sage scrub biome. The Great Basin and Sonoran floristic province

Succession often leads to a faily stable collection of organisms called a climax community. Land Biomes A biome is an environment that has a charcteristic climax community. The Earth is made up of two main biomes: land biomes and aquatic biomes. The major biomes are the tundra‚ taiga‚ temperate decidous forest‚ grassland‚ tropical rainforest‚ and desert. Tundra Tundras are the northermost biomes. They have nearly no tress and are covered

Temperate Deciduous Forest Biome Geographical Location The geographical locations of temperate deciduous forest biomes are in the eastern part of the United States and Canada‚ most of Europe‚ parts of China‚ and Japan. They are located between the polar regions and the tropics. Climate Conditions The weather of the temperate deciduous forest biome has four distinct changing seasons of winter‚ spring‚ summer‚ and fall. The seasons occur here because of the Earth’s tilt on its axis which allows

Biodiversity is the degree of variation of life forms within a given species‚ ecosystem‚ biome‚ or an entire planet. Biodiversity is a measure of the health of ecosystems. Biodiversity is in part a function of climate. In terrestrial habitats‚ tropical regions are typically rich whereas‚ Polar Regions support fewer species. Rapid environmental changes typically cause mass extinctions. One estimate is that less

North Stradbroke Island is an island that is located within Moreton Bay in the Australian state of Queensland. The island is approximately thirty seven kilometres long and eleven kilometres wide. The island spans 27‚520 hectares and of that only 445 hectares had been declared National Park. The highest peak is Mt Hargrave sand dune around 229 meters and the average rainfall is about 1803 mm per year. The rain does percolate through the sand into the islands water table.
