A forest ecosystem is a natural woodland unit consisting of all plants, animals and micro-organisms (Biotic components) in that area functioning together with all of the non-living physical (abiotic) factors of the environment.

Forest ecosystem

A generalist species is able to thrive in a wide variety of environmental conditions and can make use of a variety of different resources.

 specialist species

Is a medium-sized deer native to North America.

White-tailed deer

Is an animal anatomically and physiologically adapted to eating plant material, for example foliage or marine algae, for the main component of its diet.

 Open areas of land where grasses or grass like plants are the dominant species.

In ecology, a niche is the match of a species to a specific environmental condition.

 Ecological niche

A Deer inhabits most of Europe, the Caucasus Mountains region, Asia Minor, Iran, parts of western Asia, and central Asia.

Red deer

200

 Is an organism that derives its energy and nutrient requirements from a diet consisting mainly or exclusively of animal tissue, whether through predation or scavenging.

In ecology, a habitat is the type of natural environment in which a particular species of organism lives.

 Habitat?

300

A deer indigenous to western North America; it is named for its ears, which are large like those of the mule. The several subspecies include the black-tailed deer.

Mule deer

Parasitism

 Regions found in the Arctic and on the tops of mountains, where the climate is cold and windy, and rainfall is scant.

Tundra ecosystem

400

In bio geography, a species is indigenous to a given region or ecosystem if its presence in that region is the result of only natural processes, with no human intervention.

what is Native species?

400

Is one of the largest species within the deer family, Cervidae, and one of the largest terrestrial mammals in North America and Northeast Asia.

Elk

400

  Organisms that break down dead or decaying organisms, and in doing so, they carry out a process possible by only certain kingdoms /including fungi for example decomposition.

Decomposers

400

The ecological interaction between two or more species where each species has a net benefit.

Mutualism

 Are found in ponds, lakes, reservoirs, rivers, and streams. Estuaries, which are places where a river meets the sea, such as San Francisco Bay, are part freshwater and part marine in their makeup.



Freshwater ecosystem

500

An introduced species, alien species, exotic species, foreign species, non-indigenous species, or non-native species is a species living outside its native distributional range, but which has arrived there by human activity, either deliberate or accidental.

Nonnative species.

Also known as the caribou in North America, is a species of deer with  native to Arctic, sub-Arctic, tundra, boreal, and mountainous regions of northern Europe, Siberia, and North America.

Reindeer
