How to use it
- Drag to look around the bench, and click any model to study it in 3D.
- Models with a Practical bar (the six interactions, population growth, food chains, pyramids, decomposition, succession and the causes of biodiversity loss) show their steps in the panel on the right.
- Open a practical in the Practicals panel (the button on the right edge): sample a field with quadrats, change r and K in a growing population, follow the energy along a food chain, fit a species-area line, and work out a population by mark and recapture.
- The notes follow the NCERT chapters on organisms and populations, the ecosystem, and biodiversity and conservation; Practice has questions with explanations.
