| 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 | |

Physical geography connects to species extinction because if there is a change in the environment it will affect that species entire niche, their resources and habitat.

if the physical geography is changed then it can impact a species niche and then it can cause them to die off

Physical geography can cut populations off from food or each other, preventing reproduction and causing starvation. Sudden changes can also mean large earthquakes, potentially volcanic eruptions, and flooding, all 3 of which could very easily kill enough animals to prevent their recovery, causing an extinction.

The physical geography is vital to a species existence because a species is highly specialized for that particular area. If something where to happen a species is unable to adapt or disperse causing extinction. As we drain the earth of its natural resources we are killing off habitats as well as increasing carbon dioxide and diseases, this can kill off species

As the physical geography/environment changes, species that are well adapted for their environment may no longer be suited to survive unless they either move, adapt, or die, and what is seen is that species are having mass die-offs. As well as pollution and how it cause background extinction. Leave a Reply. |
