This discussion post has two parts. First is your response to the questions about an animal you picked. Second is your response to another student’s thread. If you have any questions, please contact me or our TA, Jack. This discussion post will have a total of 7 points, one for answering each question adequately, and one for citation count and format. Partial credit may be given for each question. Overall, this exercise accounts for ~3.33% of your overall grade. Try and choose animals that may not be the most popular or that you are unfamiliar with to minimize students choosing the same species.
Your discussion post:
Pick an animal from anywhere in the world and look up its geographic distribution. You can do this in publications or other online resources. A quality resource for looking at broad-scale geographic ranges can be found at https://www.iucnredlist.org/ by searching for the species of interest and clicking on its page. Please answer the following questions in paragraph form with a minimum of 100 words. You will need to include at least two citations (APA format). You may use Wikipedia as a starting point for finding more information, but you may not use it as one of your references.
1.Name the animal including its scientific name, and if it has one, its common name, and describe its geographic distribution (continent, country, island, mainland, biome, etc.).
2.What does this species eat for energy and nutrition?
3.In the context of the BAM diagram, what “A” factors may be limiting this species geographic distribution? You may base your answer from thinking about its geographic distribution, the basic biology of the organism, or potentially other factors.
4.In the context of the BAM diagram, does the species diet (from question #2) limit its distribution? This may be based off how narrow or broad the food source(s) may be both in geography and diversity (e.g., one or > 50 food sources?).
5.Based on your answers to questions 3 and 4, what would be more limiting to the broad-scale geographic distribution of the species: “A” or “B”? Why?
Your response to another student’s post:
Respond to another student’s post that has no responses. If all posts have responses, find one with only one response. Respond to that post with an answer to the following question. Your response should be a minimum of 25 words. First, look up the geographic distribution of that species prior to answering the question.
1.In the context of the BAM diagram, what would be one hypothesis for the “M” portion of this species geographic distribution? Justify your answer.
