Surviving Mars Part 2: Energy Dynamics and Human Impact
Due to humans, Earth has become inhabitable and we now live on Mars. We spent years terra-forming this red planet, to only cause more destruction. The project will allow students the opportunity to create a biome, analyze human impact, model succession and demonstrate their knowledge of energy dynamics within a food web/chain. This product is presented in a word document that is easily editable. The rigor can be increased or decreased based on your needs by using the rubric provided. The rubric
