SUMMARY ECOSYSTEMS
Pages 46, 47
An ecosystem is a place where living and non living
things interact each other. It can be different sizes: microscopic, medium
size, huge…
It is formed by:
- Biotope: The non living things that are there
(sand, rocks, soil, water, temperature, sun…)
- Biocenosis: The living things in the area
(animals, plants, microorganisms, humans)
The
afore mentioned elements interact each other in a perfect balance and any
change introduced in an ecosystem has big consequences on it.
Living
things group each other in :
- Population: when living things same specie
live together (lions, zebras, wolves…)
- Community: when different species population
share the same ecosystem and place.
In a population living things the same specie can:
-form a family: lions, tigers.
-form an association: bees, ants (live in
groups where every member has a specific role)
-have
a gregarious association: storks (migrate in groups to protect from
predators)
In a community of different species can exist
interspecific relationships:
-parasitism: a specie benefits from other
specie damaging it (lices, ticks)
-mutualism: two different species benefit from
each other (birds and hippos.
-comensalism: a specie benefits from other
specie without damaging it (scavengers, orchids, hermit crab)
