5. Catalyst (5 minutes)*Get out a new catalyst sheet and write down the following questions & answers • Name 2 examples of living things. • Name 2 examples of nonliving things. • How do living things depend on nonliving things? Name at least 1 example.

6. Everything is connected! (pg. 48) • Ecology is the study of the interactions of organisms with one another and with their environment. • Eco means “house” • Ology means “study of” • Why do you think we use the root word eco for this term?

7. Biotic factors interact with an ecosystem. • Biotic: all of the organisms that live together and interact with on another.

8. Plants • Plants, as a biotic factor in land ecosystems, affect other biotic and abiotic parts of ecosystem. • Plants are an important source of food. • The types of plants found in a particular ecosystem will determine the types of animals that can live there. • Plants can affect temperature by blocking sunlight. • Plant roots hold soil in place. • Even the atmosphere is affected by plants taking in carbon dioxide and releasing oxygen.

9. Animals • Animals, as biotic factors, also affect an ecosystem. • A beaver that builds a dam changes the flow of a river and so affects the surround landscape.

10. Many abiotic factors affect ecosystems. • Abiotic factors include both the physical and chemical parts of an ecosystem. • Physical factors are factors that you can see or feel , such as the temperature or the amount of water or sunlight. • Important chemical factors include the minerals and compounds found in the soil and whether the water is fresh or salty.

11. Temperature • Temperature is an important abiotic factor. • Temperature affects the types of plants that will survive. • The types of plants determine what types of animals will live there. • Animals are also sensitive to temperature.

12. What kind of environment will these animals be found in?

13. Look at the picture of the pond ecosystemabove. • With the person sitting next to or behind you, find as many abiotic and biotic factors as you can. • Take 5 minutes with a partner and then we will share.
