    Ecosystems Organization

    Uploaded by

    The document outlines different levels of biological organization from the biosphere down to cells. The biosphere encompasses all ecosystems on Earth. Ecosystems consist of communities of interacting organisms and their physical environment. Communities contain multiple populations of the same species. Populations are made up of individual organisms. Organisms have organ systems, organs, tissues, and cells as their basic structural and functional units. Competition occurs as populations interact to obtain limited resources within an ecosystem. A species' niche describes its functional role by how it obtains energy and interacts with other species.

    The biosphere is the part of


    Earth that contains all the
    ecosystems.
    ECOSYSTEM
     An ecosystem is a large community of living organisms (plants, animals and
    microbes) in a particular area.
     The living and physical components are linked together through nutrient
    cycles and energy flows.
     Ecosystems can be of any size, but usually they are in particular places.
     Examples: Forest Ecosystems, Grassland Ecosystems, Desert Ecosystems,
    Tundra Ecosystems, Freshwater Ecosystems, Marine Ecosystems
    COMMUNITY
    Populations that live together
    in a specific place.

    What type of populations can you find in a


    aquatic ecosystem?

    Populations in a community competefor the resources in an ecosystem.


    POPULATION

    Group of organisms of the


    same type or species.

    What type of population can you find in a


    savanna ecosystem?
    ORGANISM

    Individual living thing

    COMPETITION
    Look at the pictures in the pages 250 and 251.

    What are some examples of competition that may be taking place in the
    pictures?

    Moray eels compete for Aniamls for water in the


    space 1 2
    Bisons for food
    wáter hole 3

    The interaction between populations to meet their needs is called


    competition
    HABITAT
    Habitat is the place where an organism lives within an ecosystem.
    The habitat of an organism may vary.

     What type of food do pandas eat?

     What type pf food do sharks eat?


    NICHE

    A niche is the individual role a species plays in an ecosystem. It


    includes how organisms get energy, which is related to what they eat
    and transfer energy.
    ENGAGE YOUR BRAIN
     How a narrow niche determines tha habitat of a panda?

     How does broad niche affect the habitat of a shark?
