Energy Flows
A cycle in which energy is transferred from one thing to another in order to sustain itself.
Biotic
Living organisms in an ecosystem (Plants, Animals etc.)
Evaporation
The process of turning a liquid into a gas
Habitat
An area into which an organism lives in.
Oxygen
A chemical that humans can breath to survive
Autotrophs
Vessels that feed off light energy in order to produce their own food from their own bodies to feed themselves.
Abiotic
Non-living organism that create an ecosystem, photosynthesis is a non-living organism that creates the entirety of an ecosystem
Runoff
The water flow within the snow and rain
Climate
The temperature and weather of an ecosystem
O2
A chemical released as a waste product into the atmosphere from plants, which they can use for photosynthesis
Herbivorous
Organisms that feed off plants to obtain energy and protein.
Niche
Range of physical and biological conditions into which an organism lives and uses.
Infiltration
The transmission of where water from the ground enters soil
Communities
Different populations of species that live in the same define environment.
CO2
A chemical that animals release into the atmosphere as a waste product.
Carnivorous
Organisms that eat other beings in order to stay alive. They can hardly obtain energy from that.
Species
Vessels that have similar genetic features that can reproduce with the same organism to create a replica.
Transpiration
The loss of water that is contained in a plant through its leave
Biome
Groups of ecosystems that have about the same climate and have a similar dominant communities.
CO2
Factories and cars produce CO2 into atmosphere through combustion
Omnivores
Organisms that consume both meat/flesh and plants in order to absorb energy and survive.
Population
The same group of species that live in the same place.
Precipitation
The amount of water that falls to earth takes on different forms ( Rain,snow,sleet,hail,mist)
Ecosystem
A collection of all Biotic and Abiotic organisms that make up a living environment.
Carbon Dioxde
a colorless and non-flammable gas at normal temperature and pressure
