Marley said, “This is a great article that gives some basic definitions of forces and the first few of Newton's laws. When I read this article, I saw that forces are measured in Newtons like we learned in class but SI is the "unit of force"...I don't really understand that piece and want to ask Mr. Barber about it in class.
Mass =Kilogram
Length =Meter
Force =Newton
Time =Second
Temperature =
Kelvin
Abiotic Factor – A non-living part of an ecosystem
Population – all the members of one species in a given area
Habitat– the place where a plant or animal naturally lives or grows
Niche – the role of an organism in a community
Community – all the living things in an ecosystem
Biotic Factor – A living part of an ecosystem
Food Chain – the path the energy in food moves from one organism to anotherFood Web – the overlapping food chains in an ecosystem
Herbivore– an animal that eats plants, algae, and other producersCarnivore– an animal that eats another animal (carne=????? In Spanish)
Omnivore– an animal that eats BOTH plants AND animals.

Carbon Cycle – the continuous exchange of carbon dioxide and oxygen among living things.
Nitrogen Cycle– the continuous trapping of nitrogen gas into compounds in the soil and its return to the air

Biome – one of Earth’s large ecosystems with its own kind of climate, soil, plants, and animalsGrassland – a biome where grasses, not trees, are the main plant life.Taiga – a cool forest biome of conifers in the upper Northern Hemisphere.
Tundra – a large, treeless plain in the arctic regions, where the ground is frozen all year.
Desert – a biome which receives only a small amount of precipitation.
Deciduous Forest -- a forest biome with many kinds of trees that lose their leaves each autumn
Tropical rain forest – a hot biome near the equator with much rainfall and a wide variety of life.
Ecological Succession – the gradual replacement of one community by another.
Pioneer Species – the first species living in an otherwise lifeless area.Pioneer Community – the first community thriving in a once lifeless areaClimax Community – the final stage of succession in an area, unless a major change happens.
Primary Succession – the beginning of a community where few, if any, living things exist or where earlier communities were wiped out.
Secondary Succession – the beginning of a community were an earlier community already exists.
