Vocabulary

 Species- Group of organisms similar characteristics.

Evolution- Change in inherited characteristics over time.

Natural Selection- Traits best suited for environment survive.

Variation- Inherited trait that makes an organisms better suited for it's environment.

Gradualism- Evolution is slow change. Tens of millions of years.

Punctuated equilibrium- Evolution is few thousand years or million years of even fast with change coming in decades.

Adaptation- A variation that makes an organism better suited for it's environment. 

the effects of the environment

1. Riding ATV's Over kill one kind of type of bug or grass
2. Wind Turbines from wind farms. help us us the envermt so we dont us factory to palut the air

3.Flooding kill grass and weeds and trees 

Bozeman Science Video

        Something that I thought was interesting in the video was the symbiotic relationship between the aunts and the fungus. The aunts feed the fungus leafs, and in turn the fungus breaks down the cellulose in the leaf for food for the aunts. The video also said that the aunts that were working close to the fungus had a bacteria on them that worked the same way that our penicillin works.

Positive and Negative on the Environment

                                                Positive and Negative on the Environment

Riding 4 wheelers - both positive and negative. Negative - Say if you used the same route every day in a pasture grass would have a hard to growing there, but if you took different routes or just not as often you are helping spread seed around (positive).

Floods - negative, floods have the ability to take out human and animals habitats.

Wind turbines - negative, takes up space and uses energy to put them up and keep them going, positive they create energy.

Effects on the Environment

Riding four wheelers : Positive : When riding four wheelers, the rider may spread seeds from the plants that are going to seed.

                                     Negative : When riding four wheelers, the rider may run over an animal, or break of a stem to a plant.  If the rider repetitively rides over the same area, it will stomp the plants down and kill them.

Flooding : Positive : Flooding will provide the soil with nutrients.

                 Negative : Flooding may kill fish if it is a river that is flooding.

Wind Turbines : Positive : Wind turbines are an easy way to make energy.

                           Negative : It takes up land space.

Positive and negative effects in the environment

Riding ATV's on land:
Negative: The negative effect of riding ATV's on land is that you can run over tiny animals and destroy their environment and habitats. That is why you should always ride in roads.
Positive: The positive effect of riding ATV's on land is that

Wind Turbines from Wind Farms:
Positive: Wind turbines from wind farms are positive because they make energy

Flooding:
Negative: Flooding can be negative because it can destroy some of the animals habitats

Positive and Negative Effects on the Environment

A positive effect on having wind turbines is that they are a good way of producing green energy. Wind turbines are green and efficient because they use wind to push the big fins and then there are parts that create friction and make electricity. One problem that wind turbines have is that here recently birds have been flying into the turbines and the bird population is decreasing rapidly.

A positive effect on an ATV is that it helps when you go through the pasture it spreads the grass seed and hopefully the seed will grow. A negative effect on an ATV is that they pollute the atmosphere.

A positive effect on a flood is that the flood brings moisture to the ground for the plants to use. 

A negative effect from a flood is that a flood would destroy habitats, land, and all other sort of things that would be in the way of a flood.
