Warm-Up: 08/24 MATH MONDAY! Copy Agenda. On Response Page, calculate and show your work. In a savannah, the average yearly rainfall is 150cm. The average yearly rainfall in a desert is 25cm. If a global climate change causes the savannah’s average yearly rainfall to decrease by.5cm every year, in how many years will the savannah become a desert?

Answer 150cm – 25cm = 125cm 125cm divided by.5 cm/year = 250 years OR It takes 2 years to reduce 1 cm, so for every 2 years there is a 1cm decrease. Therefore 125cm x 2 years/cm = 250 years years

Warm-Up: 08/25 Copy Agenda. On Response Page, Copy each description and identify the biome described (you may use your chart) 1.Has coniferous trees and little rainfall 2. Has permafrost and mosses 3.Has maples, oaks, and ferns (your backyard) 4.Has diverse plant and animal life

Answers 1. Taiga 2. Tundra 3. Temperate Deciduous 4. Tropical Rainforest

Warm-Up: 08/26 Copy Agenda 1.Take out a blank sheet of paper. 2.Label it QUIZ and make sure your name is on the top right side of your paper 3.Number your paper from 1 to 10 and be sure to skip spaces between each number.

Warm-Up: 08/27 Copy Agenda. On NEW Response Page, Do not copy Ques., Answer in a complete sentence. “An entire ecosystem can exist under a single rock. ” Is this statement fact or opinion? Explain your reasoning.

Answers Fact. Both abiotic and biotic factors are working together.

Warm-Up: 8/28 Copy Agenda. On NEW Response Page, Select one and answer in detail….. 1.How do rain and temperature affect the ability of terrestrial ecosystems to support life? -OR- 2. How do light and water movement affect the ability of aquatic ecosystems to support life?

1. Rain provides nourishment for the growth of plants which in turn provides food for the animals. More plants equals more animals. The temperature influences the type of animals. Animals with lots of fur, white fur, and blubber would survive better in the cold whereas small animals that can burrow can survive better in the heat.

Warm-Up: 8/31 Copy Agenda. On NEW Response Page, Answer the following: How are these animals related?

Answer The mouse eats the grass, the snake eats the mouse, the hawk eats the snake
