Ecology Project Tim Schütze

The Planet: Kai This is the planet I am going to go to. in this world, the only biome that is there is the boreal forest biome, also known as the taiga. The day length of this planet is 26 hours and the number of days in a year is 366. I chose this planet because they have similar characteristics according to day length and year length. It will not affect the animals I am bringing with me that much, to start an ecosystem. In this area, the insects are the major decomposers. Characteristics: 1.temperature ranges from -54 to 30 degrees Celcius 2. Very little sunlight 3. Soil doesn’t contain many nutrients 4. Many lakes

The Organisms( Producers) Aspen (Populus Tremuloides) Pine (Pinus Longaeva) Spruce (Picea Abies) Green=producer Brown=decomposer Red=carnivore Blue=herbivore Yellow=omnivore

The Organisms(Decomposers) Mountain Pine Beetle (Dedtroctonus Ponderosae) Larch Sawfly (Pristiphora Erichsonii) Spruce Cone Worm ( Dioryctria Reneculloides)

The Organisms(Consumers) Moose ( Acles Acles) White-Throated Sparrow (Zonotrichia Albicollis) Snowshoe Hare (Lepus Americanus)

The Organisms( Consumers) Bear (Ursus Arctus) Lynx (Lynx Lynx) Wolf (Canis Lupus)

The Organisms (Consumer) Great Horned Owl (Bubu Virginianus) Lake Trout (Salvelinus Namaycush) Human (Homo Sapien)

Symbiotic Relationships and COMMENSALISM The white throated sparrow lays its eggs in the aspen tree. This does not help or benefit the tree. Aspen Tree White Throated Sparrow

Symbiotic Relationships PARASITISM and The Mountain Pine Beetle lays its eggs in the pine, and also releases toxins that can weaken the trees who are preparing for the harsh winter. If they are weakened, the chances of dying In the winter are much higher. Mountain Pine Beetle Pine Tree

Symbiotic Relationships MUTUALISM and Spruce Cone WormSpruce Tree The Spruce Cone Worm helps the tree by pollinating the tree, and therefore it also gets food.

Predation Preys on Bear Lake Trout Wolf Preys on Moose

Competition Wolf and Lynx Both Prey on Moose This will affect both the species Because the population of moose Might run out and they might starve
