Exercise 9

Find a natural ecosystem near where you live or go to school, either a terrestrial ecosystem such as a forest, or an aquatic system such as a lake or wetland. Study and write a description of the system, including its dominant vegetation and any animal life that you are aware of. Also, note how any human disturbances have changed the system. Compare your notes with those of your classmates.
