Environment The environment of an ecosystem is its surroundings - everything around it, both living and non-living, that affects it.
Ecosystem An ecosystem is any environment containing living organisms interacting with each other and with the non-living parts of the environment.
Habitat The habitat of an organism is the place where it lives
Abiotic features Abiotic means non-living. These factors include physical and chemical features, such as the temp. rainfall, type of soil and the salinity of the water.
Biotic features Biotic means living. Biotic factors include all the living organisms, how many types there are, their numbers, distribution and interactions.
Community The organisms that are found living together in a particular place form a community.
Ecology The study of the relationships living organisms have with each other and with their environment.
Terrestrial environments Environments on land
Aquatic environments Water environments
Distribution The distribution of a species describes where it is found
Abundance The Abundance of a species means how many members of the species live throughout the ecosystem
Immigration Increases in the abundance of animals are caused by birth and immigrations
Emigrations Decreases are due to death and emigration
Population A group of similar organisms living in a given area at the same time is known as a population.
Transect A narrow strip that crosses the area being studied, from one side to another.
Quadrat A quadrat is a small area that represents the larger area being studied.
Photosynthesis Photosynthesis is the process by which plant cells capture energy from sunlight and use it combine carbon dioxide and water to make sugars and oxygen.
Respiration The process by which cells obtain energy
Aerobic cellular respiration glucose + oxygen - carbon dioxide + water + energy ADP + P + glucose + oxygen - (many reactions) - carbon dioxide + water + ATP 38ADP + 38P + C6H12O6+gO2-6CO2+GH2O+38ATP
Aerobic requiring the presence of oxygen
Enzyme A substance that alters the rate which a reaction occurs, but is not used up in the reaction.
