Please Help. Thank you very much.

Ecology is the study of how organisms interact with their environment. Thus, a central question in ecology concerns how organisms respond to environmental variation. The flip side of this question is to ask whether the variation in characteristics of organisms is the result of variation in features of the environment. This variation can occur in space or through time.

1. Make a list of all the environmental variables that you can think of that are likely to be important to organisms. Think about plants and microbes as well as animals.

1A. One environmental change of great concern to us is climate change, specifically the prospect of human-caused global warming, a topic to which we will return. How do organisms respond to this spatial and temporal variability in the environment?

Read "Stress during pregnancy related to children's later movement, coordination"(https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2015/10/151014084812.htm) article that explains how the stress experienced by mothers during pregnancy can affect their children’s physical development. The research discussed in this article provides evidence for how much context can influence’s ones development—even in the womb. After reading this article, reflect on ways in which your environment has influenced your development and then compare that to how the context of your parents or grandparents has affect their development.

Compare and contrast your development to your parent’s or grandparent’s. What are the similarities? What are the differences? Use examples to illustrate your points.

Evaluate the role that context played in your development and your parent’s or grandparent’s development. Was the context an advantage or disadvantage? Be specific and offer examples to illustrate your points.
