Directions to the City of Springfield has built a public park around beautiful Cypress Pond. The city has hired you as its lead environmental scientist. Your job is to monitor the impact the new park has on the. Biodiversity of cypress pond. You will need to use information taught in this unit to successfully complete this worksheet. Introduction 1. Explain the process of succession to. Describe how changes in an ecosystem can affect the organisms that live there 3. Describe the amount of time needed for complete ecosystem recovery Cypress Pond Park planning City officials planned at the placement of the playground hiking trail and parking lot around the Pont in response to concerns that polluted water would run off of the parking lot and into the pond when it rains they decided to place the parking area as far from the pond as possible the most playground was Bill on the other side of the pond and a new hiking trail ones all the way around the part many trees were removed to make room for the parking lot playground and hiking trail your job as an environmental scientist is to study the impact of the park has on the pond ecosystem the pond contains trout and catfish catfish are very tolerant of pollution but trout are much more sensitive and die off easily when exposed to excessive pollution it's before the land and pond were distributed by the construction of the playground hiking trail and parking lot you counted the number of fish in the pond at the time Cypress Pond contain 100 trout and 100 catfish now you need to design an experiment to monitor the parks impact on the populations of trout and catfish over the next 12 months 1. What is the purpose of your experiment to. Develop a hypothesis for the experiment
... I just want an answer
I just dont know where to start
I needed help with my science {:[ im not smart
what’s the answer...
hi everyone, I am trying to help my daughter with this science portfolio but I am an English major, science is not my bag. So with that being said, my question to you is how do I define what my dependent and independent variable is on an observation experiment regarding the springfield pond and the park they decide to build around it? I get all the questions that's easy, I just don't understand what to do with the step by step variable crap. Ugh help! I'm feeling so dumb right now and want to help my daughter. Thanks in advance for whatever help comes my way.

1. Explain the process Of succession, answer: 1st grasses and weeds begin to grow then smalle Strawbs and young trees appear as the trees become taller they Begin chip rodu shade which does not suit most grasses and wheat the grasses and weeds die off as shade loving plant thriving takeover within decades the open field transformed itself into the process of succession into a shady forest
2. Describe how changes in an ecosystem can affect the organisms that live there. Answer: Changes in an ecosystem can cause fluctuations in organisms population
3. Describe the amount of time needed for complete ecosystem recovery. Answer: Succession takes place slowly and some habitat can take more than a 100 years To mature I'm fully recover from devastation.
Hope this is helpful
What are the dependent and independent variables of your experiment? Independent:
Dependent:
Hello Amy,
You could think about independent and dependent variables as cause and effect, the effect would be the dependent variable and the cause would be the independent variable. This should help you find your answer.
Hope that this helped!
