🗑
show Environment can be organized into what six levels of hierarchy  
🗑
Environment   show
🗑
Biosphere   show
🗑
show Describes in very general terms the climate and types of plants that are found in similar places around the world.  
🗑
Ecosystem   show
🗑
show Is made up the living components of the ecosystem. A group of population that live in a particular area and interact with one another  
🗑
show A group of the same type of living in the same area  
🗑
Organism   show
🗑
Through photosynthesis and chemical energy. The solar energy- sun provides most of the energy that is stored in food.   show
🗑
Habitats   show
🗑
Niche   show
🗑
show Is an organism that captures energy and stores it in food as chemical energy. Plants, photosynthesis bacteria  
🗑
show First order of consumer. Consumers. Eats only plants. Ex. Caterpillars, deer  
🗑
show Consumers eat only animals. Ex lions, spiders, snake  
🗑
Omnivore   show
🗑
Scavengers   show
🗑
show Four types. Are organisms that get their energy by eating, or consuming other organisms.  
🗑
Relationship between producers and consumers   show
🗑
show Organisms that break down dead plant and animals matter into simpler compounds  
🗑
Fungi and bacteria. ( mushrooms and mold)   show
🗑
Detritivores   show
🗑
show Is a model of the feeding relationship between many different consumers and producers in an ecosystem It is overlapping and interconnected  
🗑
Food Chain   show
🗑
show Difference between a food chain and food web  
🗑
show What ways do the arrows point on a food web  
🗑
Energy pyramid   show
🗑
Producers   show
🗑
show Which layer contains the least energy in the energy pyramid? And why?  
🗑
Producers capture the sunlight, consumer consume the energy of what they have eaten- only what is leftover from their use.   show
🗑
What is the 10% law?   show
🗑
show How do you calculate how many calories are transferred to each level?  
🗑
show Why is the level of energy change at each level of the pyramid?  
🗑
Producer ( autotrophs) primary consumer ( herbivores) secondary consumer (omnivores/ small carnivores) tertiary consumer ( carnivores)   show
🗑
show Explain the mice, snake, and hawk relationship what happened if removed  
🗑
show What is the order of consumers of snake, hawk, mice and why?  
🗑
show What are the interaction of species  
🗑
Parasite   show
🗑
Host   show
🗑
Predator   show
🗑
show Is an animal eaten by a predator. In food chain. An organism can be both  
🗑
show What is the difference between predatation vs parasitism  
🗑
show Autotrophs Plants that capture the sunlight  
🗑
Primary consumers   show
🗑
show Small carnivores, omnivores . Wolves , coyotes  
🗑
Tertiary consumers   show
🗑
Succession   show
🗑
show What two types of succession  
🗑
Primary succession   show
🗑
show The first species to populate an area  
🗑
Secondary succession   show
🗑
show 5 stages of succession  
🗑
Bare rock   show
🗑
show Pioneer species, first to colonize rocks, secrete acid onto rocks which liberates nutrients, catches wind blown dirt, can take 100 to 1000 years. Least diverse, least stable  
🗑
show Early succession plants, do not need deep roots. Like full sun. Shrubs that move in causes shade and kills them  
🗑
show Mid-succession plant. Trees that need a lot of sunlight. Cedar or pine  
🗑
Mixed Harwood   show
🗑
show Living together Close relationship between two organism lives near, on, or inside another organism  
🗑
show What are the three types of symbiosis?  
🗑
Mutualism symbiosis (+,+)   show
🗑
Commensalism symbiosis (+,0)   show
🗑
show Is the relationship between two species in which one species benefits while the species it depends on ( host) is harmed.  
🗑
Climax community   show
🗑
show What is the difference between primary and secondary succession  
🗑
Intraspecific competition   show
🗑
Interspecific competition   show
🗑
show What is the difference between intraspecific and interspecific competition  
🗑
Predation (+,-)   show
🗑
1. Everything is connected to everything else. 2. Everything must go somewhere. 3. Nature knows best. 4 there is no such thing as a free lunch   show
🗑
Fundamental niche and Realized niche   show
🗑
