Ecology

The regrowth of a community after a disturbance has occurred

is called

• Secondary Succession

Symbiosis in which both organisms benefit

• Mutualism

Organism that breaks down the remains of organisms and

recycles the nutrients back into the soil

• decomposer

Diagram that shows a single pathway of energy flow in an

ecosystem

• Food chain

Diagram that shows how energy is lost as you move up a food

chain• Energy pyramid

An organism that a predator hunts

• prey

Heterotroph that consumes other animals

• carnivore

This process used by autotrophs that uses energy from the sun, carbon dioxide, and water, and

releases oxygen to make glucose• photosynthesis

Most abundant producer in the ocean

• phytoplankton

Biome with 4 seasons and trees which leaves change colors

• Temperate deciduous forest

Biome that is characterized by having permanently frozen soil

• Tundra

A role an organism plays in its environment is called

• niche

Biome characterized by having little rainfall , being hot during

the day, and cold at night.

• desert

Symbiotic relationship in which one organism benefits and the

other is harmed• parasitism

Organisms that are at the base of all food chains

• producer

A group of the same species is called a

• population

A region of the earth that is characterized by the climate and

the organisms that live there

• biome

This is the ultimate source of energy on earth and is needed for

the process of photosynthesis• sunlight

The gradual development of a community over time that occurs in predictable stages. Begins with a pioneer species such as lichen

and the creation of soil.• Succession
