Students learn about the temperature balance equation. They then conduct a thought experiment (with a worksheet) using the components of the equation to manage their heat balance for survival on a desert island. They then explore the components of the equation as applied to animals and plants Temperature balance learning objectives. 1. Interpret and apply an energy balance equation 2. Identify and understand thermal strategies in animals & plants.
