The lagoon jellysh (Mastigias papua) has a life span of about four months and is active in the summer and autumn. Its habitat consists of coastal waters such as bays and lagoons, where it feeds on animal plankton. Algae living in its tissues produce food for the jellysh to use. During the day, the lagoon jelly travels upward, orienting its body to absorb maximum sunlight. The number of lagoon jellies in some mangrove lakes declined dramatically in 1998, possibly because of an El Niño event. The temperature of the mangrove lakes rose, as did the saltiness, creating a less than ideal environment for the jellysh. By the year 2000, numbers recovered. Lagoon algae jellies are symbionts popular make among them aquarists because their color ful. The spotted owl (Strix occidentalis) inhabits forests in the west of North America.

It prefers poplar, aspen, oak and ash trees as hosts and it requires moisture to grow. The fungus stains the wood blue or green, making the timber very sought after by furniture makers and artists.

Snow geese are migratory birds that breed in the Arctic. They spend the winter in the central region of the United States of America, where they feed on crops such as winter wheat, rice and corn. As more food is available, the overall population of snow geese increases which has a negative impact on the local environment. Modelling this system led to proposals for managing the environment in a sustainable way. Can you think of a dierent example where a model was used in decision-making?

Here it is being used for modelling interactions between four species of predator (triangles) and four species of prey (squares). Many parameters such as breeding rate can be varied to investigate the eects. The outcome of this particular simulation was that all four prey species became extinct due to overexploitation and as a consequence the populations of all four predator species crashed 3 0 9 M O D E L S G E N E T I C S How A wide Crick metal can range and explain all Crick sure and Watson that bond made angles are more now model bond were all lengths propor tion.
