@Body Systems Ecology Unit: We will be discussing ecology our science for the next two weeks. Students will:
 * List ways specific organisms may interact with other organisms or with the environment( pollination, shelter, seed, dispersal, camouflage, migration, hibernation and defensive mechanism)
 * Identify examples in Missouri where human activity had had a beneficial or harmful effect on other organisms
 * Classify populations of organisms as producers, consumers, or decomposers
 * Compare and contrast common fossils found in Missouri to organisms found on Earth today
 * Identify specialized structures and describe how they help plants survive in their environment
 * Identify specialized structures and senses and describe how they help animals to survive in their environment
 * Predict which plant or animal will be able to survive in a specific environment based on its special structure or behaviors.
