Seasons of Change Activity Worksheet—Disappearing Marine Iguanas Case Study Instructions: Complete the lab report below while you explore the impact the events have on the Marine Iguana population in the Seasons of Change Activity—Disappearing Marine Iguanas Case Study. You will submit your completed activity worksheet.

Part One

Using the map and the minimal knowledge that Liz has at this point, propose three different hypotheses regarding the sudden high mortality of marine iguanas. Post your hypotheses to the discussion board before proceeding to the next question. (3 points possible)
Hypotheses One:

Hypotheses Two:

Hypotheses Three:

Look at your classmates’ hypotheses on the discussion board. Choose one hypothesis that seems most likely to you. Provide the student name and hypothesis and tell what evidence you would need to support (or refute) it.(3 points possible)

Part Two

Given what you know at this point about marine iguanas and the abiotic effects of ENSO, develop two possible directions of research that Liz should pursue to understand exactly why the iguanas suffered such a high mortality. Keep in mind that you need to consider indirect effects. While environmental temperature does change metabolic rates of ectotherms, the iguanas are exposed to a wide range of temperatures as they feed and bask on the lava. Direct mortality in response to a temperature change of a couple of degrees is unlikely. (3 points possible)
Possible Research Direction One:

Possible Research Direction Two:

Choose one of those directions of research and determine what data you would need to find to support your ideas. (2 points possible)
Design an experiment that would help you collect the data you have identified in question four. Identify your independent variable(s), dependent variable(s), treatments, and control. (5 points possible)
What conclusions do you think Liz made about the cause of population declines in marine iguanas? (4 points possible)

1. Using the map and the minimal knowledge that Liz has at this point, propose three different hypotheses regarding the sudden high mortality of marine iguanas. Record your answers in the worksheet and post your hypotheses to the 03.01 class discussion board before proceeding to the next question.  (3 points possible)

Hypotheses One:  Iguanas are adapted to hot/warm weather, so the weather changed could have affected them.

Hypotheses Two: There was not enough shelter for the iguanas so they started disappearing.

Hypotheses Three: A new species has come close to where the iguanas live and taken them out.

2. Look at your classmates’ hypotheses on the discussion board. Choose one hypothesis that seems most likely to you. Provide the student name and hypothesis and tell what evidence you would need to support (or refute) it. (3 points possible)   Carter Spiers, Hypothesis 1. there was a lot of rain and it washed at the iguanas away. We would have to dive into the water/ ocean and find iguana bodies to be able to prove that this is true.

3. Given what you know at this point about marine iguanas and the abiotic effects of ENSO, develop two possible directions of research that Liz should pursue to understand exactly why the iguanas suffered such a high mortality. Keep in mind that you need to consider indirect effects. While environmental temperature does change metabolic rates of ectotherms, the iguanas are exposed to a wide range of temperatures as they feed and bask on the lava. Direct mortality in response to a temperature change of a couple of degrees is unlikely.  (3 points possible)

Possible Research Direction One: The climate event caused a lot more rainfall which then made it very hard for the iguanas to reach their food source.

Possible Research Direction Two: The temperatures raised very high causing the iguanas to absorb a extreme about of extra heat, which eventually made them very lazy and stopped defending their self from predators.  

4. Choose one of those directions of research and determine what data you would need to find to support your ideas.  (2 points possible)          Specific data of the extreme amounts of rainfall.

Explanation:

mientras se trata la anorexia o la bulimia, es importante buscar ayuda antes que nada. un profesional de la salud mental será el más útil para aquellos que sufren anorexia o bulimia. este es un buen lugar para comenzar, sin embargo, ver a otros profesionales como dietistas registrados, especialistas médicos y dentistas podría ayudar a alguien a recuperarse de un trastorno alimentario. después de la ayuda profesional, o si la ayuda profesional no es una opción, alguien que se recupere de la anorexia o la bulimia debe rodearse de compañeros de apoyo, padres u otros miembros de la familia que también estén comprometidos con el proceso de recuperación.

hope this you! : )

(i popped my answer into google translate so it may be a bit wonky)

i believe it is c: genes for body color and wing size are inherited separately from each parent.
