Diversity of Life Reading Reflection #8 By: E.O. Wilson Chapter 9: The Creation of Ecosystems

Biology “review” from this Chapter Keystone species “It has become clear that an elite group of species exercises and influence on biological diversity out of all proportion to its numbers” (169) Biotic factors Abiotic factors Symbiosis

Reading Reflection Explain how the understanding of Ecological interactions is essential to describing evolutionary change and biodiversity. Find and explain at least two examples from the chapter. Read the article from today’s nytimes. Relate the article to the chapter
