Microbes have had significant impact on human history. Monerans are a kingdom of organisms whose genetic material is not confined within a nucleus. An ecosystem is a community of animals, plants, protists, fungi, and bacteria and their physical and chemical environment. A pond ecosystem includes macroorganisms and microorganisms. Succession describes a series of progressive changes in the plant and animal life in an area overtime. When Lemna fronds reproduce asexually their population grows exponentially. Lesson 12: Revisiting Your Pond Observe the ponds. Sketch the abiotic and biotic components of their pond ecosystem. Look for evidence of succession in the pond. Use a compound microscope to observe, identify, and draw microorganisms from different pond depths. Determine the average daily increase in the number of Lemna fronds over 3 weeks. The structure of a vertebrates body parts may offer clues to how those parts function. Every organism has one or more habitats that are necessary for its survival. If an organism cannot adapt to adverse conditions in its environment. It must move to a more suitable environment or perish. Evolution occurs when a change in species is passed on to its Lesson 13: Anchor Activity Read about factors that determine where an organism lives. Select a vertebrate and conduct research to discover how the structure of its body part influences the way those parts function.
