IB Biology D4.3.6 Range shifts
Practise using maps, hardiness zones and species data to explain how warming shifts ranges northwards and changes ecological interactions.
How this is tested
- compare range shifts between groups such as spiders and ground beetles from data
- predict how warmer zones may move suitable plant or animal ranges northwards
- explain how predator shifts can alter competition, food webs and biodiversity
