INVENTORY OF DIVERSITY OF LIVING THINGS THROUGH LEARNING BASIC SCIENCE AND IMPLEMENTATION OF STUDENT UNDERSTANDING IN MAINTAINING ENVIRONMENTAL ENVIRONMENT

Abstract

Environmental problems have always been a serious concern for both developed and developing countries. Various human activities have caused a decrease in biodiversity both flora and fauna. The decrease in biological contribution is caused by various human activities, such as deforestation, settlement construction, and mining. However, this case will continue to be left to discuss the struggle of human life. To find out the decline in this number, an examination of the types of animals and plants is currently being threatened with extinction. The method used is observation by giving a questionnaire to students who take the Basic Natural Sciences course. The results obtained showed several types of plants and animals that experienced a decline such as: plants (teak, mahogany, and carcasses), animals (tigers, elephants, rhinos, tenggiling) where previously these species were easily found in the community.
