Form of symbiosis in which one member benefits and one is harmed (e.g., a leech attaches to a river turtle to suck its blood)

Indirect Relationship

e.g., fox eats all rabbits, gardens flourish

System formed by the interaction of a community of organisms with their environment (e.g., tundra, swamp, rain forest)

"Eco"logy (environment)

Study of the living and nonliving parts of an environment, and how they affect each other.

An organism that eats dead organism (e.g., turkey vulture, flies, lobsters)

Number of organisms (of a species) that lives in a specific area (e.g., 2,000 white tailed deer in Buckfield)

Relationship of 2 organisms that live in direct contact with one another

The roll ( job) and organism plays within its community ( e.g., tree provides oxygen for air to breath, shelter, food, etc.)

Producers consumers + decomposers that live and interact with each other ( e.g.,, in a forest; deer, trees, birds,rabbits, and mushrooms)

An organism that makes its own food via photosynthesis or chemosynthesis ( e.g., dandelion, pine tree, cactus)

An organism that can not make its own food, also has to obtain food via ingestion and absorption ( e.g., lion, jared)

Where an organism lives ( e.g., pine tree lives in coniferous forest) -specific part if the ecosystem where a specific organism lives

An organism the breaks down organic material to sustain life (e.g., fungi, bacteria, earth worms)

Question	Answer
Parasitism	Form of symbiosis in which one member benefits and one is harmed (e.g., a leech attaches to a river turtle to suck its blood)
Indirect Relationship	e.g., fox eats all rabbits, gardens flourish
Direct Relationship	e.g., fox eats rabbit
Prey-predator Relationship	one organism "eats" another
Ecosystem	System formed by the interaction of a community of organisms with their environment (e.g., tundra, swamp, rain forest)
"Eco"logy (environment)	Study of the living and nonliving parts of an environment, and how they affect each other.
Scavenger	An organism that eats dead organism (e.g., turkey vulture, flies, lobsters)
Population	Number of organisms (of a species) that lives in a specific area (e.g., 2,000 white tailed deer in Buckfield)
Symbiosis	Relationship of 2 organisms that live in direct contact with one another
Niche	The roll ( job) and organism plays within its community ( e.g., tree provides oxygen for air to breath, shelter, food, etc.)
Community	Producers consumers + decomposers that live and interact with each other ( e.g.,, in a forest; deer, trees, birds,rabbits, and mushrooms)
