ecology words!

Wordle: Untitled

The whole point of this ecological unit was to see that the interactions between organisms and their environments determine the distribution and abundance of organisms. This is why we have words in like behavior, community, population, ecological niche. All these words contribute to organisms' behavior and habitat. Biomes, community, and population is important because based on their behavior and community, one can tell whether one is suitable for an environment and how they are able to thrive or not be able to adapt as well and thus hurting their population and causing a change in population growth. One major important word in this unit is energy. Energy transfer and it's efficiency between trophic levels is important because it impacts an organism's population rate and their ability to thrive in a habitat or not. Two important things of any population is density and the spacing of individuals. Things like limited resources impact an organism, such as it's biodiversity and it's biomass within a particular area. Chemical cycles such as the carbon cycle, water cycle, and etc are very important because it's what regulates essential elements to the earth. Which helps the environment and the organisms living in it.
