- Choose a living organism from the animal kingdom that you are interested in and would like
to research/know more about.
- Create a Powerpoint or Google Slides presentation about your animal that includes all the required information and items
listed below in the "Instructions, Requirements & Outline".
B. INSTRUCTIONS, REQUIREMENTS & OUTLINE:
Include the following items and information using each number as a title of a slide with the information that is being asked of within that slide.
*** Select a theme/background color. (Have fun and try to be creative)
*** Be sure to include a picture or illustration on each slide.
SLIDE 1)The "TITLE SLIDE" for your PowerPoint/Google slides.
*Please include your chosen animal’s name (common and scientific) along
with your name and course.
Ex. Tiger (Panthera tigris)
Mary O'Connor 7th grade science
SLIDE 2) CLASSIFICATION:
*List the biological/taxonomic classification, in oorder, for the animal you have chosen.
(Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, Species)
Ex. Domestic cat-
Kingdom: Animalia, Phylum: Chordata, Class: Mammalia, Order: Carnivora,
Family: Felidae, Genus: Felis, Species: Felis catus
SLIDE 3) ECOSYSTEM:
*Create a slide describing your animal living in its habitat (include both living
organisms and geographic features that interact with your chosen animal in
its environment).
SLIDE 4) ADAPTATIONS:
*List/describe 3 adaptations of your animal (special features or behaviors that help it
survive in its habitat, e.g. webbed feet, fur).
SLIDE 5) COMMON CHARACTERISTICS:
*Describe what your animal shares with other animals in its class.
(e.g . identify whether it is a bird, fish , reptile, amphibian or mammal and list the characteristics
of the class.)
SLIDE 6) BIODIVERSITY:
*Describe how your animal species contributes to the diversity of life (positively or
negatively).
SLIDE 7) HUMAN ACTIVITY:
*Describe how human activity impacts the survival of your animal.
SLIDES 8) and 9) DESIGN SOLUTIONS:
*Select 2 issues (from the list below) for the ecosystem in which your chosen
animal lives.
*Add facts about the issues and include a possible solution to the problems.
● Wastewater treatment ● Water pollution
● Greenhouse effect ● Natural selection
● Coral whitening ● Erosion and deforestation
● Earth Radiation Budget ● Capture-mark-recapture
SLIDE 10) SOURCES/BIBLIOGRAPHY:
*Include a list of sources at the end of your PowerPoint or Google Slides.
-Source list should include:
1. Title of Source
2. Weblink/URL for source
C. TURN IN YOUR WORK:
Please note that as an AI language model, I am unable to create a PowerPoint or Google Slides presentation with images. However, I can provide you with the necessary information and outline to create the presentation yourself. Here's an outline for creating a presentation on the Bengal Tiger:
Theme/background color: Jungle theme with green background and wildlife illustrations.
Slide 1: Title Slide
- Animal: Bengal Tiger (Panthera tigris tigris)
- Your Name: [Your Name]
- Course: [Course]
Slide 2: Classification
- Kingdom: Animalia
- Phylum: Chordata
- Class: Mammalia
- Order: Carnivora
- Family: Felidae
- Genus: Panthera
- Species: Panthera tigris tigris
Slide 3: Ecosystem
- Describe the habitat of the Bengal Tiger, such as forests or grasslands.
- Include pictures of the habitat and other animals that coexist with the Bengal Tiger.
Slide 4: Adaptations
- List and describe three adaptations of the Bengal Tiger, such as:
1. Camouflage fur pattern for hunting and hiding.
2. Powerful forelimbs for capturing prey.
3. Sharp teeth and claws for tearing meat.
Slide 5: Common Characteristics
- Identify the Bengal Tiger as a mammal.
- List common mammal characteristics, such as giving birth to live young and having mammary glands for milk production.
Slide 6: Biodiversity
- Describe how the Bengal Tiger contributes to the biodiversity of life, positively as an apex predator.
- Explain its role in maintaining the balance of its ecosystem.
Slide 7: Human Activity
- Describe how human activity impacts the survival of the Bengal Tiger, such as habitat loss due to deforestation or illegal poaching for the exotic pet trade.
Slide 8: Design Solutions
- Select two issues that the Bengal Tiger's ecosystem faces, such as habitat loss and poaching.
- Provide facts about the issues and propose possible solutions, such as:
1. Implementing strict conservation measures to protect tiger habitats.
2. Enforcing laws and regulations against poaching and illegal wildlife trade.
Slide 9: Design Solutions (continued)
- Discuss another issue and propose a possible solution.
Slide 10: Sources/Bibliography
- Include a list of sources used in your presentation.
Example:
1. Title of Source: National Geographic - Bengal Tiger
