Number of individuals in an area of a specific size

Environmental factor that causes a population to stop grow or to decrease in size, such as a fatal disease infecting organisms, organisms, is a limiting factor.

The largest population that an area can support

parts of a habitat that are or were once alive and that interact with an organism

Abiotic factors are the nonliving parts of an organism's habitat.

All the different populations that live together in an area.

All the members of one species living in a peculiar area

Group of organisms that can mate with each other and produce offspring that can also mate and reproduce

Community of organisms that live in a peculiar area along with the non living environment

Study of how organisms interact with each other and their environment

Organism that can make its own food

Obtains energy by feeding on other organisms

Consumers that only eat animals

Carnivore that feeds on dead organisms

Consumers that eat both meat and plants

Break down biotic wastes and dead organisms returning the raw materials back to the ecosystem

Series of events in which one organism eats another and obtains energy and nutrients

Consists of many overlapping food chains in one ecosystem

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

Organism that makes its own food

An organism that is unable to make its own food

Any relationships in which two species live closely together

Relationship which one species benefits and the other doesn’t benefit or harm

Relationship which both species benefit

Relationship that involves one species living with, on, or inside another organism and harming it.

Environment that provides the things a specific organism needs to live grow and reproduce
