Miya Eberlein Science- Period 2 February 13‚ 2012 Ecology Unit Review 1.) Define ecology. Ecology is the study of the relationships between living organisms. 2.) List the correct order‚ from smallest to largest‚ of levels of organization for ecology. Organism‚ species‚ population‚ community‚ ecosystem 3.) Describe the different levels of organization for ecology. An organism is an individual living thing. A species is a group of organisms that are able to produce fertile offspring

Ecology is the study of interrelationship between living organisms and their environment. Life and environment are interdependent. The plant and animal life is effected by various environmental factors and in turn they modify their environment in various ways. The main theme of ecological studies is the relationship between organisms and environment‚ so ecology may well be called as "Environmental Biology." Growth‚ development and destruction of all organisms is determined by physical and biological

Ecology EQ’s 2. Abiotic and biotic components influence each other. For instance‚ temperature (abiotic factor) can make plants (biotic factor) reproduce more or reproduce less. Also water‚ an abiotic factor‚ has an effect on how animals‚ a biotic factor‚ survive in certain areas of the world. 3. Because a different niche allows multiple species of organisms to coexist. If all organisms had the same niche‚ then there would be heavy competition for food‚ shelter‚ etc. Having different niches gives

Bio 1 River Ecology Lab Report Ecology is the study of relationships between organisms and their environment which includes both physical and biological factors. Humans have a major influence on ecosystems and this is very important in the waterways of California. The American River has been influenced greatly by humans by mining for gold‚ pollution through humans themselves‚ and an immense amount of other things (Becker 1992). We tested the growth of bacteria in the water of the American
