How does non-human life in an urban ecosystem differ from that in an undeveloped forest ecosystem? (Site 2)
Doss [256]
Non-human life differs from that because the environments are covered with like sewers, buildings, and roads. Green spaces such as parks, backyards, and undeveloped lots are scattered in among the developed areas instead of all connected together. Plants and animals have to deal with exposure to toxins from vehicles and loss of habitat and food sources.

​(f) contact a local hospital and ask them the percentage of the population that is blood type o. why might the results​ differ?
Fudgin [204]
Contacting a local hospital and asking them the percentage of the population that has blood type O will generate different results. 

The factors that we have to consider why there is differing results are:
1) location of the hospital
2) nationality of their patients
3) number of their patients

I am assuming that the population that question is referring to is the number of patients in the local hospital. The bigger the population, the smaller the effect a unit has on the whole and vice versa. 

I read an article that states that 37% of the U.S. population has O+ blood type. These people are usually of Hispanic descent or some Asian descent. So, if a hospital is in a locality that has a majority of Hispanic or Asian patients, its percentage will be higher than a hospital that is located in a Caucasian-populated area. 

Aside from Type O+ (most common), blood types also include: O-, A+, A-, B+, B-, AB+, and AB- (rarest blood type)
