- Establish a protozoan community in a MicroAquarium™
- Introduce an alien species to the community and observe any effects
- Monitor the species populations through mark and recapture
A Carolina Exclusive! Grades 9–12. Students set up a balanced micro-community using MicroAquarium™ systems. After the community is established, they introduce an alien species and investigate the resulting population dynamics. Through these experiences students explore factors that endanger a species and understand some of the reasons for preserving threatened populations.
