Species Richness
Successional Changes in Communities
100
Something that eats all or part of an individual of another species
What is a predator
100
Type of interaction in which two or more species use the same limited resource
What is interspecific competition
100
A close long-term relationship between two organisms
What is symbiosis
100
The number of species in a community
What is species richness
100
"to go beneath" or "to follow after"
What is succession
200
Sticky webs of spiders, flesh cutting teeth of wolves, speed of cheetahs, and striped pattern on a tigers coat.
What is predator adaptations
200
The role that the species plays in its environment
What is a niche
200
"one who eats at the table of another" **DAILY DOUBLE**
What is a parasite
200
Relative abundance of each species
What is species evenness
200
The gradual sequential regrowth of a community of species in an area
What is ecological succession
300
One species resembles another species
What is mimicry
300
A way species can avoid competition
What is resource partitioning
300
Parasites that live inside the host's body
What is endoparasites
300
Another pattern of species richness is that larger areas usually contain more species than smaller areas do.
What is species-area effect
300
Primary succession
What is the development of a community in an area that has not supported life previously
400
Sharp thorns, spines, sticky hairs, and tough leaves.
What is plant prey adaptations
400
One species is eliminated from a community because of competition for the same limited resource
What is competitive exclusion
400
Ticks on dogs, pollination and bees, cattle egrets and Cape buffaloes
What is parasitism, mutualism, and commensalism
400
Events that change communities, remove or destroy organisms from communities, or alter resource availability.
What is disturbances
400
Mining, lodging, farming, and urban devlepment
What are human disturbances
500
Deceptive markings, fake eyes or false heads, and chemical defenses
What is animal prey adaptations
500
This evolution of differences in a characteristic due to competition
What is character displacement
500
Tears, saliva, and mucus
What are defensive mechanisms that prevent parasites
