Sept 5 hw

Great job today on the population quiz. Also a fun time was had in the 'Ecology restaurant game'! Thanks for stepping up and playing so well. I will post the vocabulary that you should be familiar with from the ecology chapter. Be prepared with questions for those you do not understand. I will also go over the summer quizzes. Keep studying the powerpoints. Check for surprises on the blog.
