Humans aren't the only organisms that can change their environment. In fact, every living organism changes it in some way, Sometimes, they can create new habitats for plants and animals to live. Invasive species, however, may destroy habitats.

Native Species
Native Species
A plant or animal that is a part of the balance of nature that has developed over hundreds or thousands of years in a particular region or ecosystem. Note: The word native should always be used with a geographic qualifier (that is, native to New England [for example]). Only plants found in this country before European settlement are considered to be native to the United States.

Introduced Species
Introduced Species
A plant or animal introduced with human help (intentionally or accidentally) to a new place or new type of habitat where it was not previously found. Note: Not all non-native plants are invasive. In fact, when many non-native plants are introduced to new places, they cannot reproduce or spread readily without continued human help (for example, many ornamental plants).

Orlandi_033120_720.movToday, we are going to take a virtual field trip to Boyer Nature Preserve in my neighborhood, Westerville. We are going to visit a pond ecosystem right here in Columbus and see how it compares to what we have studied. How many producers, primary and secondary consumers can you find? Are there any decomposers? How about invasive species? Lake and Pond Foodweb quiz will be available on Monday.
