- Interdependence
- Organisms require a supply of
materials from there
surroundings and other
organisms to survive and
reproduce
- Organisms including microorganisms have
features/adaptations which allow them to survive best and
thrive in there environment which they normally live in
- Animals and plants may be adapted to for
survival in the environment which they live
- Plants often compete with each other
for light, water, nutrients from the
soil and space
- adaptatations include: surface
area(leaves), water storage
tissues, extensive root
systems
- Animals often compete for territory,
food, water and mating parteners
- adaptations include: changes to
surface area, amount of body fat,
thickness of insulating layer,
camouflage.
- Some organisms live in very extreme
environments, EXTREMOPHILES may be
tolerant to high levels of salt, high
temperatures or high pressures
- Animals and plants may be adapted to cope
with environment specific features E.G thorns,
poisons and predator deterring colours.
