Disruptions to Ecosystems

In this topic, you will explore how natural and human disruptions to the environment impact organisms. Before you begin, take a short break and play the Connect the Dots game from NOAA to create an animal who lives in the Chesapeake Bay. Before you begin, brainstorm which animal you think you might be creating in the game.

If you are unable to access the game, try to see if you can solve the Nonpoint Source Pollution Awareness Word Search Puzzle from the Environmental Protection Agency.
