WHAT YOU WILL LEARN 5.1 BIODIVSERSITY -the three types of biodiversity -why biodiversity is important SONG- biodiversity *What is biodiversity and why is it important http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7tgNamjTRkk http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HA3xNMJnFuo

MAIN IDEA -biodiversity maintains a healthy biosphere

three types of biodiversity COMPARE three types of biodiversity BIODIVERSITY GENETIC diversity SPECIES diversity ECOSYSTEM diversity   DESCRIPTION IMPORTANCE -variety of genes / inheritable char in a population -# different species -abundance of each -variety of ecosystems in biosphere  -increase chances of species survival: 1-changing environmental conditions 2-disease outbreak  -food / resources -interconnections of species  -diff abiotic factors support diverse collection of organisms  VIDEO CLIP- biodivsersity examples

COMPARE/CONTRAST species biodiversity three types of biodiversity RAIN FOREST CORN FIELD VEGETABLE GARDEN OCEAN PLANTS ANIMALS -diverse -many water species -most diverse -1,000s species -not diverse -corn, grass,weeds -crop plants -several species -most diverse -1,000s species Insects alone -diverse -birds, insects -insects, varments -very diverse -1,000s species -

observable differences using FOREST ECOSYSTEM DESCRIBE observable differences using FOREST ECOSYSTEM type of biodiversity EXAMPLE GENETIC   SPECIES ECOSYSTEM -differences in coat color of rabbits -# of tree species in forest -forest ecosystem one of many types in biosphere
