A large community of plants and animals that occupies a distinct region
What is a biome
100
help us better understand the belonging of organisms and species in the biosphere
What is levels of organization
100
The process by which the structure of a biological community evolves over time
What is succession

What is human interaction
300
pertain to freshwater environments like rivers and lakes
What is aquatic biomes
300

What is a population
300
The colonization of new sites by communities of organisms
What is primary succession
300
one organism acts as the predator and feeds on the other,the prey
What is predator/prey relationship

What is a community
400
regrowth that an ecosystem undergoes after a destructive event
What is secondary succession
400
One organism is harmed while the other benefits
What is parasitism
500
human activity
What is the largest threat to biodiversity
500
the largest part of marine biomes
What is oceans
500
contains the lithosphere, geosphere, hydrosphere, and atmosphere
What is the biosphere
500
A biological community of plants and animals and fungi which, through the process of ecological succession the development of vegetation in an area over time, had reached a steady state
What is climax community
500
usually involves two organisms who live in close proximity but are not bothered by each other.
