Welcome to Bird Island!Let’s visualize biodiversity and

analyze it graphically…

Mr. Hefti – Pulaski Biology

Instructions1. Working with a partner your task is to use the

interactive map of Bird Island to determine which ecoregion is the most diverse and which bird species is the most widespread.

2. Start by figuring out how many individuals of each species inhabit your assigned ecoregion and create a bar chart reporting your findings. Write a brief conclusion in the space provided.

3. After we discuss the initial results you will need to determine the diversity of your assigned species across ecoregions. Again, create a bar chart that displays what you found out and report a conclusion.

Instructions4. Please include a data label at the top of each

column of your bar chart. This will make comparing results much easier in the end.- Just write in the total number of individuals!
