Pertaining to the nonliving factors playing a role in environment

Abiotic factors

Makes own food (Ex) plants

autotroph (producer)

Pertaining to the living factors playing a role in environment

biotic factors

an organisms that eats meat only

carnivore

a complex community characterized by distinctive plants, animals and climate

biome

maximum population of a particular organism an environment can support

carrying capacity

A relationship in which one member benefits and the other is NOT harmed and does NOT benefit

commensalism

a group of living things interacting with one another in a specific region

population

the struggle among organisms both of the same and different species for food, mate and other vital requirements

competition

an organism, like an animal, that consumes or feeds on other animals

Consumer (heterotroph)

breaks down dead organisms and turns them into simpler substances (ex) bacteria

decomposer

branch of biology dealing with interactions between living and nonliving factors in an environment

ecology

system formed by the interactions of a community of organisms and their environment (living and non-living things)

show the amount of energy in each level of an ecosystem (bottom of pyramid is biggest - therefore has most energy)

series of organisms interrelated by their feeding habits series of organisms interrelated by their feeding habits. (arrows point from the MOST energy to the LEAST energy)

Made up of two or more food chains

the natural environment of an organism; place natural for food and other resources of an organism

an organism that eats plants only

an organism from which a parasite receives nutrition/resources

any variable that slows the growth or activities of an organism

A relationship in which each member benefits from the relationship

the role of an organism in the community

eats both plants and animals

organism that lives on or in another organism causing harm

a relationship in which one member benefits and the other is harmed

a single type of an organism in a given location

number of organisms per unit of area

an organism that captures and feeds on the other organism

the organism that IS captured and eaten for food by a carnivorous animal

feeds on dead animals (ex) vulture

a relationship between two or more species which are living in the same area, in which at least one organism benefits. (there are different kinds, for example, commensalism, mutualism, parasitism, predation)
