1 Task Analysis Subject: 5 th Science Goal: 1 The learner will conduct investigations to build an understanding of the interdependence of plants and animals. OBJECTIVE 1.01 Describe and compare several common ecosystems (communities of organisms and their interaction with the environment) Identify and analyze the functions of organisms within the population of the ecosystem: Producers. Consumers. Decomposers. Task Analysis Identify several common ecosystems Compare and contrast ecosystems Identify the features of an ecosystem Identify the role of an organism in its ecosystem Determine the role an organism has within a food web Classify organisms by their roles in ecosystems Examine how different organisms depend on each other Construct food webs, food chains, and food pyramids Vocabulary Adaptation Migration Consumer Behavior Pollution Predator Camouflage Community Prey Extinct Population Biome Habitat Biotic Abiotic Decomposer Hibernation Abiotic Ecosystem Instinct Materials/ Resources w.ncpublics chools.org/ accountabil ity/testing/ eog/sampl eitems/scie nce w.fi.edu/tfi /units/life/ habitat/ha bitat.html Essential Questions How do I compare various ecosystems? How does the food chain model the functions of producers, consumers and decomposers within the ecosystem? How does an ecosystem support a variety of organisms? How do light, temperature, and soil composition affect an ecosystem s capacity to support life? How do organisms interact and rely on each

Habitat reduction due to development. Pollutants. Increased nutrients. Justify why an ecosystem can support or not support different plants and animals Analyze the role of light, temperature, and soil composition in a given ecosystem. Explain why plants and animals cannot be supported in every ecosystem. Explain the interactions among organisms in an ecosystem Explain the predator-prey relationship of organisms Explain how humans affect organisms within ecosystems Critique the affect human development has on ecosystems Explain the affect pollution has on ecosystems Analyze how increased nutrients affect ecosystems Producer Carnivore Herbivore Omnivore Food chain Food web Food pyramid Marine/ocean Freshwater Wetlands Desert Grassland Rain forest Deciduous forest Tundra Taiga Estuary Niche Limiting Factor Parasite Host Deforestation Pollution Pollutant Water Cycle Carbon Cycle Nitrogen Cycle other within an ecosystem?
