Populations and Communities
  1. the living part of the earht is called a bioshphere
    1. Biomes are the largest subunits of the bioshphere
      1. Each Biome is defined in terms of its living organisms and their interactions with their enviroment
    2. An ecosystem contains a dynamic but essentially self-sustaining and stable community of organisms interacting with each other and their non-living surroundings
      1. The place within an ecosystem in which an individual organism lives is called a habitat
      2. A population is a group of individuals of the same species that live in a particular area at any one time
        1. A community consists of a group of populations of different interacting species living in an area at one time
          1. An organisms total surroundings, including living,dead, and non-living components, make up its enviroment
            1. Enviromental factors that result from the activities of living organisms are called biotic factors
            2. A typical community has;
              1. Autotrophs which manufacture their own food
                1. herbivores that eat autotrophs
                  1. Secondary consumers that eat herbivores
                    1. tertiary consumers that eat secondary consumers
                      1. Decomposers that obtain nutrients by breaking down remains of dead organisims
              2. Abiotic factors include
                1. Climatic factors; light, temp.,wind
                  1. Edaphic factors; associated with soil such as; texture,pH, organic content
                    1. Topographic factors; angles and aspect of a slope
