BELLRINGER: Put this in the second box of your bellringer page • List five reasons why organisms would compete with each other.
Section 2.1 Summary – pages 35 - 45 SHARING THE WORLD • Ecology is the study of interactions that take place between organisms and their environment. (Where they live, what they eat, and what eats them)
Section 2.1 Summary – pages 35 - 45 BIOSPHERE • In Biology we study the portion of Earth that supports life- Biosphere • It extends from high in the atmosphere to the bottom of the oceans.
LEVELS OF ORGANIZATION Section 2.1 Summary – pages 35 - 45 • Ecologists have organized the living world into levels— • the organism by itself • population • community • and ecosystem
LEVELS OF ORGANIZATION Section 2.1 Summary – pages 35 - 45 ORGANISM • An individual living thing that is made of cells, uses energy, reproduces, responds, grows, and develops.
LEVELS OF ORGANIZATION Section 2.1 Summary – pages 35 - 45 POPULATION • A population is a group of organisms, all of the same species, which interbreed and live in the same area at the same time.
LEVELS OF ORGANIZATION Section 2.1 Summary – pages 35 - 45 COMMUNITY • A biological community is made up of interacting populations in a certain area at a certain time.
COMMUNITY Section 2.1 Summary – pages 35 - 45 • A change in one population in a community may cause changes in the other populations.
LEVELS OF ORGANIZATION Section 2.1 Summary – pages 35 - 45 ECOSYSTEM • Biological communities that interact with each other in a given area and with the abiotic components of that area.
SYMBIOSIS Section 2.1 Summary – pages 35 - 45 • A relationship between organisms of different species is called symbiosis. • Four kinds of symbiosis are recognized: 1. mutualism, 2. commensalism, 3. parasitism, 4. predator/prey.
SYMBIOSIS Section 2.1 Summary – pages 35 - 45 Mutualism • A symbiotic relationship in which both species benefit is called mutualism.
SYMBIOSIS Section 2.1 Summary – pages 35 - 45 Commensalism • Commensalism is a symbiotic relationship in which one species benefits and the other species is unaffected.
SYMBIOSIS Section 2.1 Summary – pages 35 - 45 Parasitism • A symbiotic relationship one species benefits and the other is harmed is called parasitism.
SYMBIOSIS Section 2.1 Summary – pages 35 - 45 Parasitism • Parasites have evolved in such a way that they harm, but usuallydo not kill the host species. Tape Worms in Intestine
In a predatorand prey relationship one species is benefitted and the other is killed. Predators seek out and eat other organisms. Section 2.1 Summary – pages 35 - 45 • Predation is found in all ecosystems and includes organisms that eat plants and animals.
ORGANISMS IN ECOSYSTEMS Section 2.1 Summary – pages 35 - 45 • A habitat is the place WHERE an organism lives out its life.
ORGANISMS IN ECOSYSTEMS Section 2.1 Summary – pages 35 - 45 A niche is the WAY an organism lives out it’s life— • how it meets its specific needs for food and shelter • how it survives, • and where it reproduces in its environment.
ORGANISMS IN ECOSYSTEMS Section 2.1 Summary – pages 35 - 45 • Why is thought that two species can’t exist for long in the same community if their niches are the same?
