1. Ecology: study of interactions between organisms and their environments. 2. Types of environmental factors: a. Biotic: living organisms or once living. b. Abiotic: nonliving (i.e. temperature, soil, light, moisture, air currents). http://www.desktopclass.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/organism-can-live-in-a-particular-type-of-environment.jpg

Levels of organization (1) Atom (2) Molecule (3) Macromolecule (4) Organelle (5) Cells – the basic unit of life (6) Tissues – clusters of cells performing a similar function (7) Organs – made of tissues that perform one specific function (8) Organ Systems– groups of organs that perform a specific purpose in the human body

Ecology levels of organization continued: (9) Organism (10) Population (11) Community (12) Ecosystem (13) Biomes(14) Biosphere http://askabiologist.asu.edu/sites/default/files/image/article/2009/ecosystems_header.jpg http://buffonescience9.wikispaces.com/file/view/ecological_levels.jpg/216935720/ecological_levels.jpg
4. Organism: any unicellular or multicellular form exhibiting all of the characteristics of life. 5. Population:group of organisms of one species living in the same place at the same time, which interbreeds. 6. Community:several interacting populations that inhabit a common environment and are interdependent. http://images.nationalgeographic.com/wpf/media-live/photos/000/321/overrides/top-ten-most-threatened-forests-mouse-lemur-madagascar_32114_600x450.jpg http://bourazani.gr/images/AACD0623.jpg https://encrypted-tbn3.google.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcQLMn5lcpI6jWh1KJzLdiO07pcwWVP-MNlOZY6D3SAVRVVfkwvCPA
7. Ecosystem:populations in a community and the abiotic factors with which they interact. 8. Biome:large region characterized by specific type of climate and certain types of plant and animal communities. 9. Biosphere:life supporting portions of Earth composed of air, land, fresh water, and salt water. 10. Biomes:major biological communities that occur over a large area of land/water. http://www.nps.gov/pete/forteachers/images/ecosystem.jpg http://cde.nwc.edu/SCI2108/course_documents/earth_moon/earth/earth_science/biosphere/biosphere2.jpg
