Populations in Nature: Exponential vs Logistic Growth Graphing Activity with Key
In this activity, students look at data for two populations: cottontail rabbits and gray foxes. Using the data, students calculate the growth of the populations. They then graph the data and observe the differences between exponential and logistic growth. Analysis of the data then occurs. This fits in well with NGSS Biology LS PE 2-1 and 2-2 Population Growth and AP Environmental Science 3.4 Carrying Capacity. A key is provided.

HALF-LIFE SIMULTION
Most people think of half-life in terms of radioaictve decay. However, it can also refer to drug interactions, pesticides in plants and a plasma half-‐life which is a stability factor. In each case the mathematical equations are similar and produce the typical half-life curve. Using M & Ms to create a simulation of the half-‐life process students create a graph with an exponential curve.
