ANIMALS:
The Introduction SectionOrganism IntroductionThe common and scientific name of your organism. Please see this link to help with scientific names if needed:\u00a0How to Write Scientific Names of Organisms
Where you observed your organism (country, state, park, zoo, etc.)
A brief discussion on why you chose your organism
If possible, a picture and\/or video of you safely observing your species in the field. If not possible, search the Internet for an image (and remember to cite your source for the image)\u00a0in a typical habitat. <\/p>\n
The BodyPhysical DescriptionYou must include a brief physical description. You can use your personal observations. If you cannot safely observe your organism, you must research.size, coloring, etc. <\/p>\n
Life Cycle and ReproductionLife Cycle: describe the life cycle of your organism.\u00a0 The life cycle refers to the series of changes that happen from the beginning of life as your organism develops and grows into a mature organism.\u00a0 Please see here for some hints on the\u00a0Life Cycle. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask!
Reproduction: You must discuss the reproductive strategies of your organism (e.g. release of gametes by a fish or hermaphroditic reproduction in earthworms), mate choice, mating displays, mate competition, and mating systems. <\/p>\n
Structure and FunctionPlease select one organ system of your organism that you find to be particularly interesting and describe\u00a0both the anatomy and physiology\u00a0of that system.
If your organism is an animal, here is a list of the\u00a0general animal organ systems <\/p>\n
Energy EcologyIf you can observe these, that is best. If not, research.
What are the food sources? Types? Amounts? Temporal pattern of feeding? Specific handling or processing of food items by the organism (e.g. the way a squirrel manipulates an acorn) <\/p>\n
HabitatWhere your organism lives. This does not refer to a city or state, but rather the natural environment in which your organism lives.
You should consider abiotic factors, such as soil, water, etc., as well as biotic factors, such as predators, hosts, etc. <\/p>\n
The Conclusion SectionThis section should contain four to six points that sum up the main points from the body of the outline.
Start your conclusive section with one sentence summarizing some basic information about your chosen organism (name and geographical distribution).
Continue with a brief summary (1-2 sentences) about the life cycle and any particular body structures.
Include a brief summary (1-2 sentences) about the ecological role of your chosen organism in its ecosystem.
Wrap up the conclusive section with a closing note that provides brief information about a unique fact and\/or behavior of your chosen organism. <\/p>\n
The Reference SectionThis is not just the reference page; rather, referencing should occur throughout the outline as it will in your presentation.\u00a0 Therefore, your outline should include both a separate reference page containing a minimum of\u00a0five sources\u00a0listed in proper APA reference list\u00a0format\u00a0AND\u00a0internal citations throughout the outline where appropriate.\u00a0\u00a0Please\u00a0be sure\u00a0to\u00a0see the resources below for assistance\u00a0regarding in-text citations and reference list formatting, and\/or\u00a0ask me if you have any additional questions. <\/p>\n
