Research and describe the biotic and abiotic factors that work together to create your animal’s habitat. You must research and describe at least 5 total factors, maybe 2 from biotic and 3 from abiotic. You mix how you choose as long as you have a mix of biotic and abiotic totaling 5! Look at the last 2 bullet points below for help. Describe the impact of your vertebrate (animal) on humans.
Describe humans’ impact on your vertebrate.
You must use at least 2 different resources to find your information.
Biotic Factors to explore--- predators, food preferences and supply, population density (how many of that population in that habitat), other species with which your vertebrate interacts in its habitat (think about your symbiotic relationships-mutualism, commensalism, parasitism), disease
Abiotic Factors to explore---temperature range, precipitation, water, topography (what are the land features-hilly, mountainous, flat, combination), wind, shelter, nesting site and place to raise young, escape routes from predators
