Relationships in Ecosystems. Populations All of the same species in an ecosystem

Shaping an Ecosystem. Biotic and Abiotic Factors Ecosystems are influences by living and non living Biotic factors: all biological factors in an ecosystem.

Relationships in the Ecosystem. What are the types of relationships? 1)Predator / Prey 2)Competition 3)Symbiosis A) commensalism B) mutualism C) parasitism.

Symbiotic Relationships Species interactions. What is symbiosis? Long term partnership between members of different species.

6.1 Relationships in the Ecosystem. Predators and Prey Predator= A consumer that actively hunts other living organisms. Prey= The organism that a predator.

* Competition- when organisms of the same or different species attempt to use the same ecological resource Males competing for the ability to mate.

How Do We Relate?. Relationships Many organisms have developed a close relationship with other organisms of different species. These close relationships.

 All living things interact with their environment, both biotic and abiotic  Most living things produce more offspring than can survive.

SPECIES INTERACTIONS. Community Interactions  Competition – occurs when organisms of the same or different species attempt to use an ecological resource.

Community Interactions. Community interactions, such as competition, predation, and various forms of symbiosis, can powerfully affect an ecosystem.

Ecological Interactions

Ecosystem Interactions Interactions The organisms in a community are capable of interacting with each other in some very complex ways. – They can: Hurt.

Ecological Relationships. Competition and Predation Competition – occurs when organisms of the same or different species attempt to use an ecological.

Relationships in an Ecosystem. SYMBIOSIS A relationship where 2 species live closely together.

SYMBIOSIS NOTES. Relationships among organisms in a community: Predation  One population (predator) captures and feeds upon another population (prey)

Species Interactions. Niche (“nitch”) A species role in its ecosystem Ex - Spiders eat many smaller insects, bees help to pollinate flowers. No two species.

Relationships in Ecosystems. Competition A contest between organisms for resources such as food, shelter, water, space, etc. Competition limits population.

Community Interactions Community: Many different species interacting in the same environment. Three types of interactions: – Competition – Predation.

Relationships in Ecosystems

Competition All living things compete for Food Space Competition limits population growth www.opim.wharton.upenn.edu

Symbiosis Any close relationship between species en.wikipedia.org

Mutualism A relationship in which both species benefit Pollination www.biology.clc.uc.edu Cleaner fish Lichens: algae + fungus www.orn.mpg.de www4.tpgi.com.au

Commensalism A relationship in which one species benefits and the other is neither helped nor harmed Shark & remora Barnacles on whale www.community.webshots.com www.cbu.edu

Parasitism A relationship in which one organisms benefits and the other is harmed Mistletoe Tick www.wcosf.org www.oznet.ksu.edu

Predator - Prey Predators are consumers that capture and eat other consumers, called prey http://www.uga.edu

Cooperation Organisms working together toward a common end or purpose http://special.newsroom.msu.edu http://forger.ca/
