100
The numbers and types of species that live in communities that generally change over time.
What is Ecological succession?
200
The group in an experiment that receives no treatment or a neutral treatment.

200
The secondary or vertical axis of a system of coordinates.
What is the Y-Axis?
200
The conditions that affect the growth rate and size of populations and communities.
What are Limiting factors?
200
Organisms that feed on primary consumers.
