Textbook Question
Chapter 2, Problem 14IMT
For each statement, identify which major theme is evident (the relationship of structure to function, information flow, pathways that transform energy and matter, interactions within biological systems, or evolution) and explain how the statement relates to the theme. If necessary, review the theme descriptions (see Chapter 1) and review the examples highlighted in blue in this chapter.
14. The release of CO2 from a factory in one region can cause ocean acidification that affects coral reefs in another region.

In a diagram, illustrate the dynamics of the benthic ecosystem particularly showing life habits of the benthos. Make the interactions in the benthic ecosystem explicit in your diagram. Provide a caption/short description (2-3 sentences) of your illustration.
please draw!
Model/diagram the sources and sinks of carbon in the global ecosystem. You will need to create TWO models/diagrams of the sources and sinks of carbon. In the first model diagram the sources and sinks of carbon in a natural, pre-industrial landscape. In the second model, diagram the sources and sinks of carbon in a landscape altered by human activity and industry.
Finally, write a few short sentences on what you would expect the atmospheric levels of CO2 to be in each model and why they would or would not be similar.
The increase of CO2 in the atmosphere has created a blanket over the earth, trapping in heat and
warming the planet. This warming and CO2 is having negative effects on the biology or life of our
planet. Identify 2 effects of climate change that we talked about in this course, one affecting animals
and one affecting plants.

As aquatic photosynthesis is light dependent, the dissolved oxygen produced will peak during daylight hours and decline at night. 2. The potability or “drinkability” of tap water varies from place to place. The distillation process ensures that contaminants are left in the boiling vessel, which results in a cleaner and more pure water in the collection vessel. 3. The stable form of oxygen in the Winkler Titration Method in determining the dissolved oxygen in water was magnesium dioxide. The free iodine in the Winkler Titration Method turned the solution into a red color. 4. Tap water is more pure than distilled water.

Bcologists, including aquatic biologists, use the range of tolerance to monitor the number of different populations residing in the area. m order to do so they use statistical models. Create a graph displaying on the x-axis the ranges of abiotic conditions such as temperature to study the population of rainbow trout in the area ( use the launch model as an example), Label each interval with temperature range and condition. What Causing Stress in Rainbow Trout Population The optimal range is the amount of an abiotic factor that produces the highest possible population. For water temperature, this would be about 6-10°C.
