populations, cycles & change: Discuss how natural events (storms, fires, disease) can change ecosystems and how they may recover.

populations, cycles & change: Describe basic cycles in nature (water cycle, carbon cycle, simple nutrient cycles) at a conceptual level.

populations, cycles & change: Interpret simple graphs showing population changes over time and suggest possible causes.

populations, cycles & change: Explain the role of plants in producing oxygen and taking in carbon dioxide.

populations, cycles & change: Describe how decomposers recycle nutrients back into the soil and why this is important for plants and food chains.

populations, cycles & change: Predict the impact of introducing or removing a species (invasive species, top predator) on a simple food web.

populations, cycles & change: Explain that populations change (grow/shrink) depending on births, deaths, immigration, and emigration.
