Here are the steps to complete the assignment: 1. List down the different species of plants and trees located in your surroundings at home. 2. Count how many individual plants or trees there are for each species. 3. Record the species name and number of individuals in a table. For example: Species Name Number of Individuals Mango tree 3 Banana plant 5 Guava tree 2 Grass 10 Submit your completed table to your teacher. This will help identify the biodiversity in your local area.

Activity Time
Group I – OVREHRAVESGNIT
= OVERHARVESTING
Group II- ESDURTCION FO BITATHA
= DESTRUCTION OF HABITAT
Group III- OLLUPIONT
= POLLUTION
Group IV- UHNTGNI
= HUNTING
Factors that Contributes to Species Extinction
1. Hunting
- Hunting results in the
population depletion of
different species of plants and
animals, eventually leading to
extinction.
Why hunt?
A. to exploit the animal's body
for meat and useful animal
products
B. for recreation
2. Habitat Destruction

- When a habitat is destroyed, the


plants, animals and other
organisms that occupy the habitat
have reduced their carrying
capacity or ability to survive, to the
point that populations decline and
become extinct.
3. Pollution
- the introduction of harmful materials
into the environment.
- When the higher-level predators
have higher level toxins, they are likely
to suffer the diseases, birth defects,
genetic mutations and other
deleterious effects.
Examples:
a. Air Pollutants – toxic smoke, gas
b. Water Pollutants- toxic materials
that mixes with water
c. Land Pollutants- garbage,
pesticides, insecticides.
4. Overharvesting
- exploiting a natural resource
until its supply is so diminished
that its exploitation is no longer
sustainable.
Resources that can be
overharvested include:
A. plants
B. terrestrial animals
C. fish and marine invertebrates
D. renewable natural elements
such as forests.
