Evolution of elaborate nervous and sensory systems
Define the characteristics that distinguish animals from other clades of Eukarya. Explain the relationships between motility, heterotrophy, and the evolution of elaborate nervous and sensory systems.
Conversation Ecology
Use the ecological footprint calculator( https://www.footprintcalculator.org/home/en) to determine how many Earths we would need to live sustainably if everyone lived as you did. You may be surprised. According to the Conversation Ecology textbook, we would need four Earths if everyone lived as the average American did! Next, try the questionnaire again and make one change […]
The replacement of bison
How has the replacement of bison with cattle on the prairie impacted the ecosystem? Prairie chicken habitat has been reduced and the species is considered endangered. There has not been an impact because bison and cattle both graze on grass. Cattle have encouraged wolves and grizzlies to return to the prairie. Cattle graze on less grass and prairie grass […]

Why is it important to understand the developmental and neurobiological effects of FV in children? and Identify 1 self-care activity you could do to assist you in preventing burnout and/or vicarious trauma if you are working with children who experience FV
The composition of biological membranes
The composition of biological membranes found in archaea is distinct from biological membranes found in bacteria and eukaryotic cells. The unique lipid composition is thought to afford protection from extreme environments that many archaea inhabit. 10. To survive extreme environments archaea must have very stable biological membranes. Explain how archaea could adapt their biological membranes […]
