what does biotic mean...
Biotic means, something that is living, like plants and animals.
Are places of shelter, like a house abiotic?
Yes because it is not a living thing, a house is like a rock or dirt, and benefits organisms, that are alive, and need shelter to survive.
what is a habitat...
A habitat is where an organism lives out its life. Many other animals of the same species or not can live in the same habitat like, Zebra's and elephants
True or false, an ecosystem is a bunch of organisms and non-organsims, all walking living, and sitting in they same area, all at the same time, and place
True.
True or false: Ecology is when a population is made up of interacting populations in a certain time...
FALSE
Ecology is the interactions that take place between organisms and their environments.
True or false: Biotic factors are water, air, fire, rocks etc...
FALSE
Biotic factors, are plants, animals, and other LIVING organisms.
true or false, viruses are abiotic?
Yes, this is true. viruses are in fact abiotic things
True or false: habitats can have varying species
TRUE... For example, sea creatures and animals in Africa, and animals in tropical climates
True or false: A biological community is made up of different species living and interacting in the same area at the same time
TRUE
how would someone define ecology with fish? What are their surroundings?
Fish are surrounded by bodies of water, and coral and other sea animals, like sharks, and dolphins.
What benefits from biotic factors in nature?
Trees give us area, insects like spiders can get ride of harmful insects, tall grass helps snakes stay warm, cows eat the tall grass to stay healthy, and strong, and the circle of life keeps on going.
True or False: Abiotic factors, are plants animals, etc...
FALSE
Abiotic factors, are air fire, rocks, water, etc.
What is mutualism...
Mutualism is a symbolic relationship in which both animals benefit from one another.
What is an ecosystem?
An ecosystem is a place made up of organisms, that interact with each other, and there are more than one kind of species living in one area.
true or false a population is one species living in the same place at the same time?
True.
what are some non-benefitable factors of biotic things?
diseases can kill of a livestock, bacteria, which is alive unlike a virus which needs a host, can make many others animals sick, which can contaminate food, and possibly cause humans to be sick.
An Abiotic is air, water, fire, rocks, light. Abiotic means non living.
What is a niche
Niche is when all animals create strategies and adaptions a species uses in its environment.
Animals can adapt to their environment by using a species strategy to survive
Do Abiotics and biotics, live in the same area/enviroment/ecosystem?
Yes, they can. When it comes to nature everything or one this benefited from one thing to another.
what is someone talking about when they talk about ecology?
They are talking about how, what an organism is surrounded by, what it prays on, its predators, and how it lives, its day to day life.
Are viruses biotic, or abiotic? why or why not?
No they are not biotic, they can be, only if they have a host, without a host viruses are not technically alive. They are more like a partial of dust flying around until someone contracts it, and gets it into their system. So they are more abiotic, then biotic.
Can abiotics, help organisms?
Yes, rocks, and dirt can help organisms, hide or blend in, and they can't be spotted by any predators.
what type of animals are a niche...
worms, ants, centipedes, Japanese beetles, June beetles, grasshoppers, etc...
what is a biological community?
A biological community is a community where more than one type of species of organsims live
Can organisms benefit from other organisms?
Yes, they can it is called mutualism, it is where two living things can help one another out. Like bees and flowers.
