We are given the question which factors affect the stability of a Predator-Prey Population. Our goal is to find what factors could change a species population. A stable ecosystem means that a plant or animal does not overpopulate or underpopulate.. If the ecosystem is unstable, then a specie will grow largely, and another one would grow small. Our group collected how the population changed overtime and see if one specie goes extinct in our experiment. We put the experiment on a specific time…

For my biology project I chose to plant a Palo verde tree. I decided to plant my tree in the front yard of my house. It is near a few cacti and some other trees.

I checked for the growth of it twice, and in total it grew about an inch. Trees are a necessity in this environment. Trees provide oxygen and help…

Did you know we all play an important part of our environment? Even the smallest animal can cause such a huge impact on its ecosystem and every animal around it. Living and nonliving things do impact the population of the ecosystem. Pandas are one of many animals that impact their ecosystem. Pandas eat bamboo which is good because then all animals in the area can come because of the bamboo decrease. If pandas did not exist then the bamboo can overgrow and drive some animals away because they…
