Science 9
Ecology Unit Presentation
I chose an endangered Keystone species, mine being the Basking Shark. I then explained how and why it is a Keystone Species. Furthermore, I had to choose an economic sector and explain it and how it affects the environment and my species. I elaborated on the Transportation sector, its effects and ways in which we can reduce the amount of emissions caused by it, thereby helping the environment.
We were only allowed to add bullet points to our presentation, hence why my presentation seems bare of explanations of certain points, all the explanations are in notes that I made for the presentation. I did however add pictures of certain things to visualize certain aspects and points easier.
Reflections
I’m really satisfied with my presentation, although I think I could have used more graphical images like charts and graphs to represent data better. I also could have made a graph showing the food web between Basking Sharks and their preys and predators. I really like researching about my favourite shark in the ocean and I learnt many things from it.
