Ecosystems

What might you find in a rainforest?

What might you find in a desert?

Overall, you will find two categories of objects:  Living things  Non-living things

Anywhere on Earth…  You may find living things.  You may find non-living things.  You may find living things and non-living things in the same space

Anywhere on Earth…  You may find living things and non- living things in small spaces.

Anywhere on Earth…

 You may find living things and non- living things in large spaces.

Anywhere on Earth…

 Any interacting system of living and non-living things is called an…

Ecosystem

Living things in an ecosystem are…  Biotic Factors of an ecosystem.

Non-Living things in an ecosystem are…  Abiotic Factors of an ecosystem.

Example of a local ecosystem… The Santa Rosa Plateau

*Social Studies Connection* Where in the world is the Santa Rosa Plateau?

*Language Arts Connection* Eco = “house” (Greek root word) Bio = “life” (Greek root word)

*Math Connection* The Nature Conservancy purchased the Santa Rosa Plateau in 1984 in order to begin protecting the natural ecosystems there. Since it is 2014, how many years have passed since the land became protected?
