Exam (1-4)
UNIT 4:
-JCURVE- exponential, exploding pop
-S CURVE- Logistic, pop that meets Carrying Capacity
Pattern of Change= (BR+Immigration) - (DR+ Emigration)
Intraspective= comp btwn same species interspective= comp btwn different species
-Environmental resistance= limits pop from factors (increase death rate)
VS -Biotic potential= factors in the pop factors (increase in birth rates)
-Density Dependent= impacted by the pop ex: disease, space, etc
-Density Independent= not impacted by pop (abiotic)ex: climate
Top down= control by predation bottom up = control by resource scarcity
K strat- mammals, little offspring, more parental care, long life, stable, older reproduction
R strat- small, a lot of offspring, little to no parental care, unstable, short life, younger reproduction
UNIT 2
-GDP- Gross Domestic Prod= total monetary value
-GNP- Gross National Prod= owned by countries' citizens
-GPI- Genuine Progress Indicator= full view of health (alternate to gdp)
*gdp overexploits resources, while gpi doesn't agree with exploitation.
-Centrally planned- govt, dictatorship, (Cuba, NK) - Free Market -private ownership, capitalism (France USA)
G&S- ecosystem provides material and systems. Goods= water, wood, food
Services= pest control, waste management, nutrient cycles
-Natural Cap- G&S
-Produced Cap- human built structures
-Intangible Cap-not physical in nature
4 Stages of Env Policy:
Recognition- Recognizes Prob
Formulation- creates policy
Implementation- implement policy after it's put into law
Control-Maintain policy and keep under control
UNIT 3
Abiotic- nonliving
Biotic-living
Hierarchical Ecology:
Species= group of individuals Population= make up a reproducing group Community= groups of pop in an area Ecosystem= Interactive communities (biotic/abiotic) env affecting them Ecotone= transitional region btwn ecosystems - marshlands landscape= clusters of ecosystems that interact - pine barons biome= large area w/ same climate and similar vegetation- temp deciduous forest biosphere= system of all living things
Habitat= specific area adapted to live in (place) Niche= sum of all conditions/resources under which species can live (role)
Cellular Respiration= 6O2+ C6H12O6 (glucose)-> 6CO2+6H2O (relates to 1st law of thermo, not created nor destroyed, converted from chemical to glucose Photosynthesis= 6CO2+6H2O->C6H12O6+6O2 (relates to 2nd law of thermo, energy is lost and transferred as heat
Linnean Taxonomy- Domain, Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, Species. most inclusive taxonomic category- order
Spheres- Hydrosphere, lithosphere, atmosphere, biosphere
Nutrient Cycles= Carbon, Sulfur, Phosphorus, Nitrogen,
Limits of tolerance= high/low ends of range of tolerance Zones of stress= btwn optimal range and high/low limits of tolerance ex- noise
UNIT 1:
Environmentalists Paradox: Human well-being increases while environments goods and services decrease
junk vs sound sci: junk is biased and not proven. sound science uses experiments, peer reviewing, statistics, etc
-Aldo Leopold: Director of Audubon Society
-Garrett Hardin: Tragedy of the Commons- racist:( -Wangari Maathai: Kenyan woman, Nobel Peace Prize, plants trees, Women's rights activist -Rachel Carson: Silent Spring, Scientific expertise helped shape positive env. policies
Sustainability, Sound Science, Stewardship
-Executive= Enforces law
-legislative=passes the legislation
-judicial = interprets policy Env Law Requires- Recognition, Formulation, Implementation, and Control
-Command and Control- setting standards (must be followed) C.A.A.- (control) -Market Based- Fined (plastic bags ban)
