What is Ecology?
Ecology is the study of this.
What are relationships between organisms and their surroundings?
This is a place where an organism calls home.
What is a habitat?
This is a relationship where one organism benefits and the other his harmed.
What is parasitism?
What is a food web shows multiple paths for energy transfer and a food chain only shows one.
This is the difference between a biotic factor and an abiotic factor.
What is biotic factors are living and abiotic factors are not?
Some examples of these are the temperate rainforest, the desert, and the tundra.
Bonus: What biome do we live in?
This describes a commensalism relationship.
What is a relationship where one organism benefits and the other is unbothered or benefitted?
This makes an autotroph different from a heterotroph.
What is autotrophs can make their own food and heterotrophs cannot?
Define the term 'niche'.
What is a role/ job that an organism has in its habitat?
Bonus: Give an example of an organism and its niche.
Describe what a population is and give an example.
What is a group of a single type of organism. (ex: group of deer)
An example of this relationship is a bee on a flower.
What is mutalism?
As energy flows from a producer to a consumer, the amount of energy does this.
What is decrease?
Bonus: Why does energy decrease as we go down a food chain or food web?
A lion is this to a zebra.
What is a predator?
Bonus: What type of heterotroph is a lion?
This makes a biological community different from an ecosystem.
What is a biological community only shows interactions between living organisms and an ecosystem shows interactions between living organisms and their surroundings?
An example of this relationship is between a dog and a flea.
What is parasitism?
Identify what a carnivore, herbivore, omnivore, and detritivore are.
What is a carnivore only eats meat, a herbivore only each plants, an omnivore eats both, and a detritivore each decayed living things.
Bonus: Give an example of each.
Give at least 3 examples of abiotic factors that benefit us living in our ecosystem.
What are sunlight, water, oxygen, temperature, etc?
Identify and list the order of organization of life from smallest to largest.
What is an organism, population, biological community, ecosystem, biome.
Give an example of each type of symbiosis.
What is mutualism :) :)
commensalism :) :|
parasitism :) :(
Given a small bird, a butterfly, a fox, and a flower. This is the trophic level of the small bird.
What is the 3rd trophic level?
Bonus: Complete the order of the food chain.
