Transcript Slide 1

What is the name of a place where a population
lives, eats, and sleeps referred to?
Is the study of how organisms interact with one
another?
All the different kinds of species that live in the
same habitat are called?
(T/F) Abiotic factors deal with all living things.
(T/F) Abiotic factors deal with the non-living factors
such as the soil, weather, & water.
DESIGN AN ECOSYSTEM
1. DRAW A TROPHIC LEVEL DIAGRAM AND
LABEL EACH LEVEL.
2. DEFINE: HERBIVORE,CARNIVORE, AND
OMNIVORE.
3. DEFINE ENERGY PYRAMID.
ECOLOGY QUIZ
1. T/F ECOSYSTEM IS THE STUDY OF HOW ORGANISMS
INTERACT WITH THEIR ENVIRONMENT.
2. WHERE A POPULATION LIVES AND EATS IS REFERRED TO
AS A _____________.
3. ________________ CONSISTS OF A COMMUNITY AND ALL
OTHER ABIOTIC FACTORS.
4. THE MANY DIFFERENT SPECIES THAT LIVE IN A HABITAT IS
CALLED _________________.
5. SOIL, WATER, & TEMPERATURE ARE ALL EXAMPLES OF
__________ ____________.
6. ALL LIVING FACTORS ARE CALLED ________ _________.
7. ALL NON-LIVING FACTORS ARE CALLED __________
_________.
8. WHAT IS SUCCESSION?
9. GLACIERS AND VOLCANOES ARE EXAMPLES OF WHICH
TYPE OF SUCCESSION?
10. GIVE ONE EXAMPLES OF SECONDARY SUCCESSION.
11. DEFINE PRODUCERS AND CONSUMERS AND GIVE TWO
EXAMPLES FOR EACH.
1.Producer- obtain energy from sun (ex. Plants, algae, bacteria)
2.Consumer- obtain energy from other organisms (plants &
animals)
3.Primary consumer- obtain energy by eating plants (zebra)
4.Secondary consumer- obtain energy by eating animals & even
sometimes plants. (ex. Bear, lion)
5.Decomposer- decay organisms and recycle their nutrients back
into the environment. (ex. Bacteria and fungi)
6.Trophic levels- how energy moves through an ecosystem
7.Autotroph- organisms that use light energy to make organic
compounds. (plants, algae, and bacteria)
8.Heterotroph- organisms that get energy from food instead of
directly from sunlight. (ex. Humans, lions, fish)
9. Carnivores- eat only meat for energy
10.Omnivores- eat both meat and plant for energy
11.Herbivores- eat only plants for energy
12.Detritivores- organisms that obtain their energy from the
wastes left by other organisms & dead bodies of the
ecosystem.
(ex. worms, fungi, & vultures)
13.Scavengers- obtain energy from dead or dying organisms
