Reconstructing Ancient Ecosystems

Reconstruct an ancient ecosystem using multiple independent lines of evidence: isotope analysis of teeth to infer diet and migration, bone histology (growth rings) to estimate age and growth rate, coprolite chemistry for diet, and palaeobotany for habitat — understanding that palaeontology is an evidence-synthesis discipline

Usually learned at ages 12–14

Builds on: Drawing conclusions from evidence (age 12+) (helps), Radiometric Dating (helps), Reading Cladograms
