Could you survive a strange new environment?

Take out a separate sheet of paper. Title “My Crash- land on Earth” Given the traits, choose which traits you want for your “alien self.” Write down your ‘alien name’ and genotype and phenotype using the trait key. Create your ‘alien self’ TraitDominantRecessive Body HairThick – short (T) Bald (t) Skin colorBlue (B)Yellow (b) WingsNo wings (W)Wings (w) Eyes3 eyes on front of face (E) 1 eye (e)

Aliens with birthdays Jan – April land in the Amazon (South America) Characteristics: Hot/Humid Very diverse, (lots of plants and animals) Rains everyday Very tall trees with little sunlight Aliens with birthdays May – August land in the North Arctic Characteristics: Very cold and dry Very little diversity with no trees and short little plants on the ground Rocky or frozen ground Long days. Long nights. Aliens with birthdays Sept – December land in the Sahara Desert (Africa) Characteristics: Very hot and dry Little rain Short plants, few animals Lots of sand and sun. You have crash landed on Earth!

Using your knowledge of the environment you landed in, list things you will do to survive (using ONLY the traits you choose) 1.What will you eat? 2.Where will you live? 3.How will you protect yourself from predators? 4.Which traits do you have that do not help in your environment? Your Environment

Create a chart to keep up with the population of your Alien people for the environment. Population Count Environments Original Population of Aliens Population of Aliens survived year 1 Amazon Rain Forest N.A. Tundra Sahara Desert

Construct a graph that describes your data population chart. ex: Analysis - Construct a Graph

“Mother Nature” (me) will take course. Answer the following questions for each generation. Discussion questions: 1.What traits led to the death of individuals in your environment? Why? 2.What traits led to the survival of individuals? Why? “Death” comes a knocking!

1.What were some of the environmental pressures or limited resources that caused some of you to die? 2.Which traits helped others to live? 3.Could you have survived in a different environment? Why? 4.How do you think the alien population would look in 100 or 1000 years? Conclusion questions:
