SCIENCE STANDARDS
NGSS
MS-LS2-4
Construct an argument supported by empirical evidence that changes to physical or biological components of an ecosystem affect populations. Emphasis is on recognizing patterns in data and making warranted inferences about changes in populations, and on evaluating empirical evidence supporting arguments about changes to ecosystems.
TEKS
SCI.5.9.A
Organisms and environments. The student knows that there are relationships, systems, and cycles within environments. The student is expected to: observe the way organisms live and survive in their ecosystem by interacting with the living and nonliving components
SCI.5.9.B
Organisms and environments. The student knows that there are relationships, systems, and cycles within environments. The student is expected to: describe the flow of energy within a food web, including the roles of the Sun, producers, consumers, and decomposers
SCI.5.10.B
Organisms and environments. The student knows that organisms have structures and behaviors that help them survive within their environments. The student is expected to: differentiate between inherited traits of plants and animals such as spines on a cactus or shape of a beak and learned behaviors such as an animal learning tricks or a child riding a bicycle.
SCI.7.10.B
Organisms and environments. The student knows that there is a relationship between organisms and the environment. The student is expected to: describe how biodiversity contributes to the sustainability of an ecosystem
SCI.9-11.B.12.C
Science concepts. The student knows that interdependence and interactions occur within an environmental system. The student is expected to: analyze the flow of matter and energy through trophic levels using various models, including food chains, food webs, and ecological pyramids
