| Subject: Biology General Biology: Food Web mini-project due Friday 10/30. Using organisms from any local ecosystem (allaire state park, barnegate bay, Pine Barrens etc.), you are to design a food web using at least 10 organisms. You are to have a picture of each organism and they must represent the following trophic levels (Producers, primary - secondary - tertiary - consumers, you can also include decomposers if you like). You are to design this either on regular computer paper or a small poster board. Last Updated: 10/27/2009 6:40:25 AM |
