Next Generation Science Standards
| Grade | Discipline | Core Idea |
|---|---|---|
| 9-12 | ESS3.C: Human impacts on Earth systems | Sustainability of human societies and the biodiversity that supports them requires responsible management of natural resources, including the development of technologies. |
| PreK-2 | LS2.C: Ecosystem dynamics, functioning, and resilience | N/A |
| 3-5 | LS2.C: Ecosystem dynamics, functioning, and resilience | When the environment changes some organisms survive and reproduce, some move to new locations, some move into the transformed environment, and some die. |
| 6-8 | LS2.C: Ecosystem dynamics, functioning, and resilience | N/A |
| 9-12 | LS2.C: Ecosystem dynamics, functioning, and resilience | If a biological or physical disturbance to an ecosystem occurs, including one induced by human activity, the ecosystem may return to its more or less original state or become a very different ecosystem, depending on the complex set of interactions within the ecosystem. |
