| Central Question: What does the world lose when a species goes extinct? Guiding Thought Question: First make a prediction at the connection between changes in physical geography and the extinction of species. After making your prediction watch the youtube video on the sixth mass extinction and explain how changes in landscapes can trigger mass dies offs of species. Today's Learning Objective: Students will learn about the importance of preserving species and making a case for the continued protection of all by designing informative | |

Each time a big change in physical geography occurs, a lot of species won’t be able to adapt fast enough and they’ll die.

As geography changes, the possibility of species going extinct will increase as the environment will change, forcing animals to either move or adapt to the new habitat. Animals can lose their source of food, homes can be destroyed, and more.

The physical changes in landscape will affect the animals and how they live, how they can get to their food, etc. Some animals may not adapt to the changes very well and they will die off one by one and will not longer live there.

Humans will destroy the planet by changing the physical geography by taking out all the forests and pollution in the water got so bad that all the fish died and all the animals are dead because of humans growing population we had to take out all of the animals environment and humans are also dying because of the pollution is causing diseases

As physical geography changes species that live there will have to adapt to these changes in order to survive, if they are unable to adapt they will become extinct.

The speed at which the environment changes will proportionally increase the number of species that go extinct: faster speed= more extinct species.

When the geography of landscape changes, then animals have to adapt very quickly which is usually impossible as evolution takes a long time. So without adaption there will be extinction.

If physical geography changes, then an animal might not adapt to a new geography depending on how fast it changes. If the geographical changes change the biome, then the animal would either need to disperse or go extinct.

When an island is in a certain position it hits the sun differently and makes it a different temperature. As well has hills and mountains and the amount of water and distance from other land can affect sensitive species

The physical geography can affect the way an animal lives. And if the animal is unable to adapt it can threaten there species.

Changes in physical geography will cause the animals in the area to adapt and evolve and if they can't evolve fast enough then they won't survive

When physical geography changes rapidly it can cause extinction over time. If it changes slowly overtime then species will likely have time to adapt. Another example would be containers drifting and causing climate to change then causing species to adapt or go extinct.

When physical geography changes, the animals wouldn’t be able to adapt fast enough because that happens slowly with time, but some might be able to adapt if they can reproduce fast enough.

Changes in physical geography would increase the level of adaptivity or Extinction. One example of this is, quite simply, deforestation. The deforestation rids the area of the animals natural homes allowing predators to eat them.

Physical geography affects species extinction because when their environment changes some species that don’t adapt will start to die.

When the physical geography changes drastically, species may not be able to adapt to it in time, so they will die. If you switch quickly from a ice age to a period of rapid warming areas will flood and some animals who cant handle the heat will die, throwing off the food chain and eventually causing extinction

Changes in landscapes can affect the species and how they live, and how they can get to their food. Some animals may not adapt to the changes in enough time and they eventually will die off.

They correlate to each other. The more species that go extinct- the more the land will change.

The more that physical geography changes the more likely that an extinction will happen.

Landscape changes faster than animals can adapt. So as the geological shape changes animals will die off and become extinct because they can’t adapt to the drastic changes fast enough

when things change too quickly many species can't adapt fast enough so they die off

adaption takes a long time but fast changes of land do not, so since the species can't adapt fast enough, they go through a mass extinction. but as species go extinct, the land also changes, so it is a cycle

physical geography affects extinctions because as the geography is changing it changes drastically and quickly causing species to start dying off because they cannot adapt fast enough.

They are related to each other. If a mountain shrinks or grows or a river dries up, ecosystems that rely on it could disappear.

If the land will change, with the more species that go extinct

Deforestation’s is ruining habitats of thousands of species and when you change the landscape it take animals and birds a lot longer to adapt which would cause mode of those species to go extinct

Changes in the landscape will change the area the species live in and they may not be able to adapt quickly enough.

deforestation can destroy an animal's food source and shelter making it vulnerable to predators and starvation.

many species need a certain number of generations in order to adapt to certain things.

Animals impact their environment in a lot of ways such as what they eat, where they live, and where they move. If an animal dies off then the geography will change. The same can go in reverse. In times of drought, geography changes and animals can die.

As the world is changing, this will eventually cause everything else in the world to change. This ould cause animals to migrate, become extinct, or learn to adapt Leave a Reply. |
