Energy Transfer in Arctic Ecosystems
SKU: LH-ISM-049-K
Students figure out the best way to model how energy transfers into, within, and out of the organisms that are found in the Arctic Ocean ecosystem.
The Energy Transfer in the Arctic Ecosystem kit includes all the materials that students will need to design and carry out an investigation.
Each kit contains enough materials for eight groups of students.
Materials:
- Phytoplankton Card
- Zooplankton Card
- Shrimp Card
- Snow crab card
- Arctic Birds card
