Unit of nature and a focus study of ecology

abiotic vs. Biotic factors

Abiotic: non-living aspects of the environment (sunlight, soil, temp, water) Biotic: living aspect of the environment

single celled prokaryotic organism that is apart of the bacteria domain

eukaryotic organism in the fungus kingdom -Mushrooms, yeast

How living things interact with each other and their environment

process where cells use sunlight, water, carbon dioxide to make oxygen, glucose and energy storing sugar

use light energy or chemical energy to make food for themselves and other consumers.

role of a species in it's ecosystem, including how the species' interact with biotic and abiotic factors

Physical environment where species live and adapt to -determined mainly by abiotic factors, which in turn influence the traits of the organisms in that environment

Competitive Exclusion Principal

2 species can not occupy the same niche in the same environment for a very long time because they would compete with each other for similar food, and resources unless one specie, goes through character Displacement

Character Displacement

In order for 2 species to coexist, they have to adapt by changing their niche

Simple model of whom eats whom to get energy

more complex food chain that some multiple pathways to which energy and matter flows through the ecosystem

path way that describes how E flows through the ecosystem starting directly from living plants (producers)

Dead matter that supports the food web/chain at averystep. - base of Brown food chain

Food chain that starts with Detritus (dead/rotting plants)
