Thursday: Ecology Test (Topic 5 and Option G)

Next week you will be designing an experiment to test the habitat preference of an animal .You must choose an animal (invertebrate) to study that you can obtain in quantities adequate for experimentation. You might want to google Habitat Selection Lab and see what types of experiments have been done in this area.
