Practice Macro ID; notebook/processing time

First Unit Test (on Salmon) will be Oct. 11th/12th!
First interactive notebook check is on the same day!

WARM UP: (this is a verbal warm-up, no need to record)
With your clock partner, answer these questions:
1. Why are macroinvertebrates an important part of our ecosystem in the Pacific Northwest?
2. What are the three types of macroinvertebrates that we focused on in the PowerPoint presentation? You can name either their Order or their scientific name.
3. What is one interesting fact you learned about macroinvertebrates?

Practice identifying macroinvertebrates with your shoulder partner using electronic devices; use this website (same as the handout): NW Nature Practice ID. One partner should have the photo of the unidentified macroinvertebrate and the other can pull up the PPT or use notes to use for classification.

WARM UP: (9/23/16) p.12
1.What is another term for the 'small fish' that salmon become after their yolk sac is absorbed? 

2. At what stage of their life cycle do salmon have an orange yolk-sac on their bellies that serves as their food source?

3. At what stage do salmon lie in the gravel through winter to develop? 







4. At what stage do salmon undergo a physical change that triggers downstream migration and adaptation to saltwater?

5. In which stage do salmon use internal signals to carry out a process called 'homing?' What is homing? 

6. Females defend their 'redds' for a few hours up to a week during what stage?
