SCI 207 Week 1 DQ 1 Biomes and Diversity
SCI 207 Week 1 Assignment Environmental Footprint

• Environmental Footprint. The purpose of this
  assignment is to learn more about how connected
  you are to the ecosystems and biosphere that you
  inhabit. You will learn how your everyday choices
  contribute to the human impacts on our
  environment you have been learning about.

• Week 1, Discussion 1
• Biomes and Diversity
• As you have learned in the readings, extinction
  is a natural selection process. You have also
  read that humans are often responsible for
  accelerating this process. Using at least two
  scholarly or reputable resources and your
  textbook, address whether or not we as humans
  should be concerned with the extinction rate

SCI 207 Week 2 Assignment Evaluating Credible and
Scholarly Scientific Sources
SCI 207 Week 1 Lab 1 Introduction to Science (New)

• Exercise 1 The Scientific Method
• In this exercise, you will answer the questions
  based on what you have seen in the videos
  throughout the lab. Be sure to pay careful
  attention to the videos you will not only need
  them to complete this exercise successfully, but
  also to have a firm understanding of the
  scientific method for future labs.

Evaluating Credible and Scholarly Scientific
Sources Week Two Assignment In this assignment,
you will examine three different sources - one
source that would be considered scholarly, one
source that is credible but not scholarly, and
one source that would not be considered credible
for use in an academic paper.

SCI 207 Week 2 Lab 2 Water Quality and
Contamination (New)
SCI 207 Week 2 DQ 1 Food and Agriculture

• SCI 207 Week 2, Discussion 1
• Food and Agriculture
• In the United States, we are fortunate to have
  an abundant supply of food. However, this
  abundance is largely due to advances in
  agricultural technology, which have in turn
  created numerous concerns surrounding our food
  sources

• Lab 2 Water Quality and Contamination
• Experiment 1 Drinking Water Quality
• Bottled water is a billion dollar industry in the
  United States. Still, few people know the health
  benefits, if any, that come from drinking bottled
  water as opposed to tap water.

SCI 207 Week 3 DQ 1 Age of Oil
SCI 207 Week 3 Assignment Outline of the Final
Lab Report(New)

• Age of Oil
• As you know, our world is heavily dependent on
  oil. In Chapter 6 of Contemporary Environmental
  Issues, you have read that there is concern about
  the possibility of reaching a peak in oil
  production

• Introduction
• Body Paragraph 1 - Background The rough draft
  of the introduction should describe the
  background of water quality and related issues
  using cited examples. You should include
  scholarly sources in this section to help explain
  why water quality research is important to
  society.

SCI 207 Week 4 DQ 1 Climate and Air Pollution
SCI 207 Week 3 Lab 3 Biodiversity (New)

• Lab 3 Biodiversity
• Experiment 1 Effects of Water Pollution on Plant
  Diversity
• Water pollution can have severely negative
  effects on biodiversity and ecosystems,
  particularly on plant populations. In many cases,
  these pollutants are introduced to the
  environment through everyday human activity.

Climate and Air Pollution As increases in human
population lead to expansive industrialization
and cultivation, increased carbon emissions are
resulting in global climate change. This
atmospheric alteration may result in a number of
detrimental environmental impacts including food
insecurity

SCI 207 Week 5 Assignment Final Lab Report (New)
SCI 207 Week 4 Lab 4 Energy Sources and
Alternative Energy (New)

• Lab 4 Energy Sources and Alternative Energy
• Experiment 1 The Effects of Coal Mining
• Coal mining, particularly surface mining, leads
  to large areas of land being temporarily
  disturbed. Mines collect and conduct water that
  is in contact with pyrite, a mineral that
  produces iron and sulfuric acid when exposed to
  air and water

• Abstract
• The abstract should provide a brief summary of
  the methods, results, and conclusions. It should
  very briefly allow the reader to see what was
  done, how it was done, and the results. It should
  not exceed 200 words and should be the last part
  written (although it should still appear right
  after the title page).

SCI 207 Week 5 Lab 5 Weather and Climate Change
(New)
SCI 207 Week 5 DQ 1 Waste
Waste In 2012, Americans alone produced over 250
million tons of garbage. One large component of
this waste consisted of oil based plastic bags,
which are utilized excessively by grocers,
restaurants, and stores nationwide. In order to
reduce this source of waste, many countries are
banning plastic bags or taxing customers for
their use.

• Lab 5 Weather and Climate Change
• Lab 5 - Demonstration 1 Modeling the Water Cycle
• In this experiment you will observe how entrapped
  water moves from land to the atmosphere and
  determine how weather conditions affect this
  movement.
