All the living and non-living things interacting in a particular area. | Ecosystem (1.2) |
A group of the same type of organism living in the same area. | Population (1.2) |
When something stays mostly the same over time. | Stability (1.3) |
A small part that is meant to show what the whole is like. | Sample (1.4) |
The process of creating offspring. | Reproduction (2.1) |
The ability to make things move or change. | Energy (2.1) |
A molecule that organisms can use to release the energy they need to survive. | Energy Storage Molecule (ESM) (2.2) |
A population eats organisms from another population. | Consumer Population (2.2) |
A population that is eaten by organisms from another population. | Resource Population (2.2) |
K.C. 1: Within a population organisms are always... | Being born and dying. |
K.C. 3: If the number of births and deaths in a given time are equal, then the population size will be... | Stable. |
K.C. 4 (Part 1): If there are more births than deaths in a given time, the the size of the population will... | Increase. |
K.C. 4 (Part 2): If there are fewer/less births than deaths in a given time, the the size of the population will... | Decrease. |
K.C. 5: Organisms need release energy from _________________ in order to reproduce. | Energy Storage Molecules (ESM's) |
K.C. 6: Organisms in consumer populations get energy storage molecules (ESM's) from eating organisms in the... | Resource Population |
K.C. 7: The more energy storage molecules (ESM's) available to a population, the more the organisms in that population can ____________________. | Reproduce |
K.C. 8: The larger the resource population, the more energy storage molecules (ESM's) are available for its __________________________. | Consumer populations. |
