Complete 5E Lesson Sequence: Limiting Factors & Carrying Capacity - Everything you need to teach a 2 week unit on limiting factors and carrying capacity in ecosystems. Each lesson plan follows the 5E model and provides you with the exact tools to teach the concept. All of the guesswork has been removed with this MINIMAL to NO PREP lesson.

After completing the unit students will be able to:

  • Differentiate between destiny dependent and independent limiting factors in ecosystems
  • Explain what factors regulate the carrying capacity of a population
  • Differentiate between abiotic and biotic factors that impact population densities

Standards

to see state-specific standards (only available in the US).
NGSSMS-LS2-4
Construct an argument supported by empirical evidence that changes to physical or biological components of an ecosystem affect populations. Emphasis is on recognizing patterns in data and making warranted inferences about changes in populations, and on evaluating empirical evidence supporting arguments about changes to ecosystems.
NGSSMS-LS2-1
Analyze and interpret data to provide evidence for the effects of resource availability on organisms and populations of organisms in an ecosystem. Emphasis is on cause and effect relationships between resources and growth of individual organisms and the numbers of organisms in ecosystems during periods of abundant and scarce resources.
NGSSHS-LS2-1
Use mathematical and/or computational representations to support explanations of factors that affect carrying capacity of ecosystems at different scales. Emphasis is on quantitative analysis and comparison of the relationships among interdependent factors including boundaries, resources, climate, and competition. Examples of mathematical comparisons could include graphs, charts, histograms, and population changes gathered from simulations or historical data sets. Assessment does not include deriving mathematical equations to make comparisons.
