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.
Predator – an animal that hunts other animals for food.Prey– a living thing that is hunted for food.
PREY PREDATOR
Scavengers – a meat-eating animal that feeds on the remains of dead animals.
SCAVENGER
ALSO A SCAVENGER
Symbiosis – a relationship between two kinds of organisms that lasts over time.Mutualism – a relationship between two kinds of organisms that benefits both.
Parasitism – a relationship in which one organism lives in or another organism lives in or on another organism and benefits from that relationship while the other organism may be harmed by it.Commensalism – a relationship between two kinds of organism that benefits one without harming the other.
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 area
Climax 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.
