Using your food web from H.2L.1, describe what would happen to the food web if:
- Pick one organism from a predator-prey relationship. Explain what would happen to your predator-prey populations if the numbers of your chosen organism went up and what would happen if the numbers went down.
- Pick one organism in a symbiotic relationship (remember what that is). Explain what would happen to your symbiotic populations if the numbers of your chosen organism went up and what would happen if the numbers went down.
- Pick one organism from the food web. Explain what would happen to the entire food web if the numbers of your chosen organism went up and what would happen if the numbers went down.
- Pick an abiotic factor. Explain what would happen to your entire food web if the abiotic factor was removed or limited severely.
Probably about time to assess.
