How does the level of ecological organization an ecologist studies influence the questions he or she poses? While an ecologist may focus on a particular level of ecological organization, might other levels of organization be relevant, for example, does an ecologist studying factors limiting numbers in a population of zebras need to consider the influences of interactions with other species or the influences of food on the survival of individuals?

Part A: Research a Forest Use credible resources to research the type of forest you chose and address these questions: Where is this forest located? What is the climate of this region? What types of plants and animals live there? Why is deforestation of this region a threat? Is deforestation currently occurring in this region? If so, what is the primary cause? Use Redwood National Forest.
