How does human use of the Earth's resources and resulting waste products affect the Earth's physical environment? How do factors influence an organism's behavior? How are organisms interdependent with the physical environment? Why do some species become extinct or endangered while others do not? What are the functions of various stages in the life cycle of an organism? Organization and Systems Systems consist of organized groups of interactive parts. What are the component parts of a variety of systems? What are an ecosystem's component parts and how do variables affect a system's success? How do the component parts of living systems work together to sustain live? How do humans impact the living and non-living environment? How do life spans of various species compare?
