Presentation transcript:

Species interaction - niche / habitat study

Predation Predators have specialized body parts for locating and obtaining prey. Structures= fangs, jaws, holding legs, etc Chemicals= toxins, poisons, etc Behaviors= camouflage, social, ambush, etc

Predator Traits

Smaller Predators

Herbivores / omnivores Need to have mouthparts to obtain food Siphon = butterfly Chewing = grasshopper / cricket Shredding = stonefly nymph (aquatic)

Herbivores

decomposers Many different enzymes to break down organics - Carbs / lipids / protein Usually little defense / mvmt

Decomposers

Scavengers & Detritivores Consume dead organic matter

Habitat Includes food, water, shelter, space Depends on abiotic conditions A change in the habitat conditions effects plants which effect animals

Aquatic Habitats

Soil Habitats

Edge Habitats
