Quarter I Science 3 Summative

1. The document is a science test covering topics like population ecology, limiting factors, extinction, and human impacts on the environment. 2. It contains questions that assess understanding of how doubling a population would affect resources, how limiting factors influence population density, and predicting outcomes of a fungus growing on soybean crops. 3. It also has problems calculating population density of ants and carabaos, and multiple choice questions about pollution runoff, the greenhouse effect, alternative energy sources, potential medicines from rainforests, and rising human resource consumption.
