Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem

Morongo preserve. My semester project was to clean the Morongo preserve. I went with my friends sergio and anthony to the preserve. We were all meeting up at the preserve around 8:00 am. My friends and I were suppose to do this for a semester project in MS Zacks class. This was all possible because my mom took the time to drive me to the Morongo Preserve drop me off and pick me up after. The ecological perspective of my project is that the animals who lived near the preserve won't be affected…

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 put some black fencing around the tree to protect it from any wild animals, such as the jackrabbits that like to roam in my yard. I watered my tree every day for the past two months. 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…

Kelly seweyn Per;5 Is the Norway Rat an Invasive species that is what we going to be learning about in this paper including other non-invasive and invasive species but first we need to know what they are so you can talk away your best view from this paper. A invasive species have few natural predators, have high reproduction rates, are long lived, are pioneer species (meaning they were brought here from other places ) , They are generalists, they kill native species, produce abundant…

relationship an organism has with other organisms and the relationship the organism has with their surrounding environment (Ecology, 2015). The creeks were a perfect example of an ecosystem in our study because they had different Abiotic and Biotic factors that we could look at to support our hypothesis and prediction. An ecosystem is an environment where abiotic (nonliving) and biotic (living) interact with each other(Brooker,Widmaier,Graham,Stiling, 2011). The purpose of this experiment was so…

As a landowner, it is important to manage invasive plants in order to preserve our native habitat; to care for our fields, forests and waterways; and protect farmlands. Controlling the spread of invasives can be a complicated issue, because complete eradication is unrealistic in most cases. Managing the most common invasive plants, different control techniques, and tips for preventing new invasions from occurring can help to stop the spread of such plant species. Non-native invasive plants…

species all over the world in many different ecosystems. But some of these species do not belong in the ecosystem they are in and these are called invasive species. Invasive species are non-native species of plants and animals introduced to an ecosystem usually by humans. The invasive species can thrive in an ecosystem where there are little to no natural predators and an abundance of resources. Due to these factors the invasive species can dominate an ecosystem and disrupt its natural balance…

Invasive species have the potential to have a dramatic, negative impact on the areas that they invade. This can be observed in the harm that they cause to the environment and their impact on the health of humans and other animals. Arguably, invasive species cause the most damage by contributing to the loss of other species’ habitats. Many of the endangered plant and animal species found in the United States are in this position, in part, because of the impact of invasive species on their habitat…

While determining the differences between two different sagebrush communities and the north/south aspect, I accept my hypothesis that there was a differences in the plant cover in a sagebrush community that has seen burning, and/or on a north aspect. The data shows that there are clear differences between the burned/unburned sites and the north/south aspect sites. The only time that two of the sights had the same amount of plant cover of the same plant community was in Figure 1 where there was…

Invasive species are prevalent in many places around the world, and are classified as any living organism that is not native to the ecosystem in which they are currently present in and causes harm. They can exist as a plant, fungus, or an animal, which is what we will focus on for the entirety of the paper. Invasive species are usually considered endangered species where they are native, but switch to invasive species in areas where they are indigenous. They are spread in a variety of ways both…

The ecosystem that has more area than all of Earth’s land masses combined is the Pacific Ocean. The Pacific Ocean is an oceanic biome that is located between the Americas, Asian and Australian continents. It is the largest of the world’s five oceans ocean and is approximately 63.8 million square miles full of saltwater, ecosystems, and organisms. The ocean is an average of 13,000 feet deep and covers more than 30 percent of the Earth’s surface. These are just a few defining characteristics of…
