An environment that provides the things a specific organism needs to live,grow,and reproduce

The parts of a habitat that are or were once alive.

Non-living parts of an organism’s habitat.

A group of organisms that can mate with each other and produce offspring that can also mate and reproduce.

All members of one species living in a particular area.

All the different populations that live together.

The community of organisms that lives in a particular area,along with the non living environment.

The study of how organisms interact with each other and with their environment.

An organism that can make its own food

Obtains energy by feeding on others organisms

Breaks down biotic wastes and dead organisms

A series of events in which one organism eats another and obtains energy

A population to stop growing or to decrease in size, such as a fatal disease infecting organisms

Consumers that only eat animals

Consumers that eat both plants and animals

A relationship that involves one organism with,on,or inside another organism and harming it

a relationship in which both species benefit

a relationship in which one species benefits and other species is neither helped nor normal

Any relationship in which two species live closely together

An interactions in which one organisms kills another for food or nutrition

When two species share a niche,one of their populations might be effected

Takes place among organisms every day

Absorbs light, much like cells in solar panels do

A set of chemical reactions plants use to turn light, water, and nutrients into oxygen and energy, in the form of sugars

Shows the amount of energy that moves from one feeding level to another in a food web

The largest population that an area can support

The number of individuals in an area of a specific size

An interactions in which one organisms kills another for food or nutrition

Consists of many overlapping food chains in an ecosystem
