living factors in an ecosystem.
______________is made up of all organisms of the same species that live in an area.
In this type of relationship one benefits and the other is unaffected
What is commensalism?
Wood is an example of a biotic or an abiotic factor
biotic

non-living factors in an ecosystem.
An example of this type of relationship would be a bee and a flower.
What is mutualism?

What is Intraspecific
____________is succession that begins in a place that already has soil.
_____________includes all the populations animals living together in one ecosystem.
Orchids on trees is an example of this type of relationship.
What is parasitism?
Two different species competing for the same natural resources would be an example of this type of competition.
What is interspecific competition.
__________is the type of succession that begins in a place without plants or soil in the past.
This is a relationship where one animal preys on another.
What is predation?
Intraspecific competition can reduce the fitness of all individuals involved, but the more fit individuals are more likely to survive and reproduce. Is this statement true or false.
What is true?
________Is a stable biological community that is the end-point of ecological succession
