17. • How to play…
– Don’t play like Jeo_ _ _ _ y.
– Class should be divided into several small
groups.
– Groups should use science journal (red slide
notes), homework, and other available
materials to assist you.
– Groups can communicate quietly with each
other but no sharing answers between
groups.
• Practice quietly communicating right now?
• Practice Communication Question:
• Your group gets to order one pizza and you can
have two toppings. What does your group want?

18. Questions 1-20 = 5pts Each
Final Category (Bonus) = 1pt Each
Final Questions = 5 pt wager
If you wager 5 on the last question and get it wrong you lose
5 pts. Wager 5 and get it right you get 5 pts.
Find the Owl =
Secretly write “Owl” in the correct box
worth 1pt.
“I’ll be about
this big.”

• The predator-prey relationship is important
in maintaining balance among different
animal species. Adaptations that are
beneficial to prey, such as camouflage,
mimicry, and chemical and physical
defenses, ensure that the species will
survive.
– At the same time, predators must undergo
certain adaptive changes to make finding and
capturing prey less difficult.

Organisms need energy to survive. Energy from the sun flows into and
out systems. This energy drives our world and the organisms in it.
Energy is lost “not destroyed” when it changes form. Flows Hot to Cold
Ecological systems are organized within each other. The effects on one
system will effect them all. All systems are interconnected.
All organisms are in a constant state of change over time with the
environment. Some organisms will change with another and will
develop special interactions. Others with the nonliving world.
Matter and energy cycle through the living and nonliving world.
Organisms rely on this matter and energy cycling to survive.
Animals are interconnected in a complex web of life. Changes on
one part of the web have will effect other parts of the web and the
stability of the entire ecosystem.
Ecosystems have a way to balance changes so that up and
down fluctuations are part of the natural balance of the whole.
