All members of one species living in a particular area are referred to as a population.

All different populations that live together in an area make up a community.

The community of organisms that lives in a particular area, make up an ecosystem.

The study how organisms interact with each other and with thier environment is called ecology.

The amount of something a thing can carry at once.

An organism that can make its own food.

Obtains energy by feeding on other organisms.

They break down biotic waste and dead organisms.

A series in which one organism eats another and obtain energy and nutrients.

Consists of many overlapping food chains.

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

Absorbs light, much like cells in Solar panels.

An organism that has to get its food from a source-and unable to make its own food.

An organism that makes its own food.

Any relationship in which two species live closely together.

A relationship in which that one species benefits and the other species is neither helped nor harmed.

A relationship which to species benefit.

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

The struggle between organisms to survive as they use the same limited resources.

an animal or organism that obtains energy and nutrients by consuming both plants and animals.
