Question
Generating Ecological Hypotheses
You will pose an ecological question related to one or more of your field observations and generate at two hypothetical answers to this question. Your question can be focused on a pattern or change occurring at the level of an organism, population, community, or ecosystem. Your hypotheses should be educated guesses that represent either competing or complementary views. You will be asked to relate each hypothesis to a concept or model from your coursework in BIO 320 or BIO 321.
Please use the following template to be sure that you have completed all aspects of this assignment:
State your ecological question here:
Describe your observation(s) that motivated your ecological question:
State two different hypotheses that could answer your ecological question:
Hypothesis 1)
Hypothesis 2)
Relate each of your hypotheses to concepts or models covered in BIO 320 or 321:
Hypothesis 1)
Hypothesis 2)
1) Clear statement of your ecological question;
2) Clear description of observation(s) that motivated your ecological question;
3) Two logical hypotheses designed to answer your ecological question;
4) Concepts or models from BIO 320/321 used to develop your hypotheses.
