Ecology Study of living and non-living components of the environment & their interactions
4
Organism Any living thing

Community All living organisms in an area at a certain time
6
Ecosystem A community and its non-living environment
7
Population A group of organisms of the same species in the same place at the same time.

12
Abiotic Factors Physical Disturbances * Storm events
i.e. El Niño / La Niña * Drought * Volcanic eruptions * Habitat destruction * Climate change
13
Abiotic Biotic Factors Factors
Non-living (sun, air, water, & rocks) Living or once living (bacteria, animals, & plants)
14
Biotic Factors Competition Predation Disease
15
Producers/Autotrophs
Make their own food by photosynthesis Sunlight + H20 + CO > Glucose + O2
16
Consumers/Heterotrophs
Can’t make their own food
17
Consumers/Heterotrophs
Can’t make their own food Herbivores: Plant-eater

Consumers/Heterotrophs
Carnivore: Meat eater
20
Consumers/Heterotrophs
Omnivore: Eats both plants & animals
21
Consumers/Heterotrophs
Decomposer: Eats dead plants & animals

Food Chain Transfer of energy from one level to another
23
Ocean Food Chain
24
Food Web A group of interlocking food chains
