The study of relationships among living organisms and the interactions they have with their environments. 

What is Ecology

100

Cells, Tissue, Organs, Organ Systems, ?????

What is an Organism

100
The act of one organism consuming another organism for food (Predator & Prey)

What is Predation

100

These are the green plants and other organisms that produce their own food 

What are Autotrophs

100

Each step in a food web or food chain

What is a Trophic Level
200

This is the small portion around earth that supports life.

What is the Biosphere

200

Individual organisms of a single species that share the same geographical location at the same time

What is a population

200

The close relationship that exists when two or more species live together

What is Symbiosis 

200
A heterotroph that only eats plants

What is a Herbivore

200
A simple model that shows how energy flows through an ecosystem

What is a Food Chain

300

These are non living factors in an organisms environment

What are Abiotic Factors

300

A group of interacting populations that occupy the same geographic area at the same time.

What is a Biological Community

300

The symbiotic relationship where both parties benefit from each other

What is Mutualism

300

A Heterotroph that eats fragments of dead matter

What is a Detritivore

300

A model representing the many interconnected food chains

What is a Food Web

400

These are the living factors in an organisms environment 

What are Biotic Factors

400

A biological community and all of the abiotic factors that affect it.

What is an Ecosystem
400

The relationship where one organism benefits and other is not harmed or benefited

What is Commensalism

400

A heterotroph that eats meat and plants

What is an Omnivore

400
Models that show relative amounts of energy, biomass, or numbers of organisms at each trophic level

What are Ecological Pyramids

500

What can I infer about looking at this map

The places with high chlorophyll or plants will have more life and the places with less chlorophyll and plants will have less life. Living organisms depend on these plants for survival. 

500

A large group of ecosystems that share same climate and have similar types of communities

What is a Biome

500

The symbiotic relationship where one organism benefits at the harm of another organism

What is Parasitsm

500

A heterotroph that only eats meat

What is a Carnivore

500

The total amount of mass of living matter at each trophic level

What is Biomass
