Question
Answer
show Abiotic  
🗑
The different layers of gases that extend from the surface of the Earth into space   show
🗑
show Autotroph  
🗑
show Biodiversity  
🗑
A pathway by which a chemical element or molecule moves through both biotic and abiotic compartments of an ecosystem   show
🗑
show Biomass  
🗑
This is a group of plants and animals in the same region that have adapted together to the region's environment.   show
🗑
These are all the living organisms on earth.   show
🗑
show Carnivore  
🗑
show Carrying Capacity  
🗑
These are the general weather conditions of an area over a long period of time.   show
🗑
show Commensalism  
🗑
These are the groups of plants and animals that interact within an ecosystem.   show
🗑
This occurs when 2 or more organisms or populations in a community rely or need similar limiting resources.   show
🗑
Land areas that are close to a body of water or groundwater, or land areas that are flooded regularly; they support vegetation adapted for life in saturated soil conditions.   show
🗑
This is the plant life of a region; it often refers to the ground cover provided by plants   show
🗑
show Tundra  
🗑
This is a term use to describe an ecological community in which moisture and temperature are high.   show
🗑
This is the position that an organism occupies in a food chain - what it eats, and what eats it.   show
🗑
show Thermal Pollution  
🗑
This is a term used to describe a region between polar zones and the tropics with warm summers, cold winters and sufficient precipitation to support its species.   show
🗑
show Taiga  
🗑
This is an interdependent relationship between two different species.   show
🗑
This is the set of skills and abilities necessary for an organism to live.   show
🗑
show Succession  
🗑
This is a type of photochemical air pollution that is a result of the interaction of sunlight with certain chemicals in the atmosphere. This type of air pollution is very hazardous to you health.   show
🗑
An animal that eats the dead remains and wastes of other animals and plants.   show
🗑
show Savanna  
🗑
This is one of the seven major biomes in which rainfall amounts are high and flora and fauna vary greatly; at least one-half of the the world's species are contained in these and primary productivity is extremely high.   show
🗑
This is an organism that supplies matter and energy, also known as an autotroph.   show
🗑
An animal that is killed and eaten by another animal.   show
🗑
show Predator  
🗑
Water for a given biome.   show
🗑
show Population Dynamics  
🗑
The number of individuals of a species per unit area.   show
🗑
show Population  
🗑
show Permafrost  
🗑
This is an organism which feeds on, but usually does not kill, a larger organism.   show
🗑
This is an organism obtains energy by eating both plants and animals.   show
🗑
show Non-native Species  
🗑
This is the role of a species in an ecosystem, consisting of such things as what it eats, when it eats, and where it lives.   show
🗑
This is the interaction of two organisms where both benefit.   show
🗑
show Lichen  
🗑
show Herbivore  
🗑
show Habitat  
🗑
One of several types of terrestrial biomes, where grasses form the predominant vegetation, usually mixed with herbs and sometimes with shrubs, but usually without trees.   show
🗑
show Freshwater  
🗑
show Food Web  
🗑
This is a path for the transfer of matter and energy through an ecosystem by eating and being eaten.   show
🗑
show Estuary  
🗑
show Environment  
🗑
This display graphically shows the energy that is available at each trophic level in a a food chain.   show
🗑
Populations and abiotic factors with which they interact in the setting of a community.   show
🗑
This is the study of organisms and their interactions with the environment.   show
🗑

🗑
An extremely dry period where water is far below typical levels.   show
🗑
show Detritivore  
🗑
show Desert  
🗑
show Depletion  
🗑
show Density Independent Limiting Factor  
🗑
This is a limiting factor of a population in which large, dense populations are more strongly affected than small, less crowded ones.   show
🗑
show Deforestation  
🗑
This is an organism that breaks down and gains nutrients from dead organisms.   show
🗑
show Deciduous  
🗑
