 | Central Question: How can biogeographers track and communicate where species are located? Guiding Thought Question: What do you foresee as the biggest complication in determining the range of a particular species and mapping it out? Today's Learning Objective: Students will work through the process by which species range is plotted and mapped. Students will learn the various cartographic methods that are used to map out species, and then work through the process themselves in mapping out plant species around the school grounds. |

because they move a lot and it isn’t going to stay consistent and you can only travel so fast

plants and animals have been taken from their native habitats by humans and spread all across the globe, causing invasive species and a widespread range for many animals

Could be if a species is endangered and there’s not many around the world?

Climate change affecting where a species is living and not knowing where they originally lived.

Because animals are constintely moving and adpating so it will be more complicated to figure out and map the range and species.

Because of the dispersed animals of a particular species, it may be difficult to determine the habitat range of that species. And they will be on the move frequently, and depending on the geography to map out their range, it may affect the difficulty of ranging a species of plant or animal.

There are just a lot of factors in the ranges and some of them are very hard to determine like if the population of other species in the niche

Elusiveness, whether or not the species is heavily nomadic, migration routes, how often animals die, and in some cases the animal's appearance changing so drastically that it may not be recognized. Leave a Reply. |
