Video Notes

• During our ecology unit, we will be looking at video clips that showcase different environments and biomes, as well as the organisms that live in them. !•  This week, we will be looking at “caves” !• Write at least 8 facts you learn

about caves from the video clip

Standard •  HS-LS 2-6: Evaluate the claims, evidence, and

reasoning that the complex interactions in ecosystems maintain relatively consistent numbers and types of organisms in stable conditions, but changing conditions may result in a new ecosystem

Ecosystem •  Biotic factors = living things such as plants,

animals, fungi, and bacteria

Ecosystem •  Abiotic factors = nonliving things such as

moisture, temperature, wind, sunlight, + soil

Changes in Ecosystems •  Ecosystems rely on a balance to stay healthy!•  Factors'that'can'change'an'ecosystem:'
