We are studying populations and ecosystems We are studying populations and ecosystems. Ecologists, scientists who study ecosystems, have specific words and terms they use to refer to concepts related to their work. We need to learn the terminology in order to discuss and communicate what we learn about populations and ecosystems.

What is the relationship (How to the words build on each other What is the relationship (How to the words build on each other? How do the words effect one another?) between individuals, populations, communities, and abiotic factors in an ecosystem?

Card Sort - 10 Minutes This is a deck of ecosystem sorting cards. They have pictures of common objects, organisms, and scenes that represent things in the real world. Work with table buddy to sort the cards into different piles. Individuals Populations Communities Ecosystem Abiotic Factors USE THE SHEET TO WRITE IN ANSWERS

Things in the ecosystems that are not alive, like conditions (hot, cold, evaluation, wind, and so on) and resources (light, carbon dioxide, oxygen, water, and minerals) are called abiotic factors. The prefix ‘a’ means not, so abiotic means not living. An ecosystems is a system of interactions and relationship between the biotic and abiotic factors that exist in a specified area.

Is there anything that is abiotic, or nonliving, in the places these cards represent? Are there an abiotic factors? How big or small can an ecosystem be?

Check answers

The cards you identified as individual, populations, and community represent the biotic factors in the ecosystem. Biotic means living. Are there anything biotic places that the cards represent?

Red Worms I have a population I want you to look at. What are these? What are they used for? Where do they usually live? We aren’t going to make detailed observations of them today, but we will in a few weeks. Until then, I have assembled a worm habitat in a jar. It has all the things the worms will need: food, water, and shelter. The jar goes in a black plastic bag or in a dark resting spot. We’ll add food and moisture occasionally so the worms will survive until we need them.
