Here's a quick lesson on population survivorship from Mrs. Taylor and her students:
Whether individuals die very young or live into old age is often dependent on the species. There are three general patterns that species are often classified into: Type 1 (nurtured babies), Type 2 (bottleneck babies) and Type 3 (sink or swim babies).
During this lab, students were tasked to represent populations with bubbles and demonstrate how their survivorship is dependent on different factors. Students blew bubbles and left them alone until they popped, forced them through a frame (bottleneck), and also used a variety of tactics to keep their bubble babies "alive" for as long as possible. The data collected from the different strategies was graphed and analyzed to show the different types of survivorships.
