A group of independent organisms in a particular environment is a?
There is no such thing as a group of 'independent' organisms. All organisms are inter-dependent, like it or not. For example, we are dependent on plants and animals for food.
All living organisms are dependent on plants because?
All living organisms are dependent on plants because to gain energy.
Why all living organisms depend on plants?
All living organisms dependent on plant because plant produces food from the sun that give animal and all living thing around
All animals are?
All animals are organisms. All animals are eukaryotes. All animals are heterotrophs - they are dependent on other organisms (e.g. plants) for sustenance.
How are the terms autotroph food chain and heterotroph related?
They are all terms that are used to talk about organisms in a habitat. Autotrophs are the producers (plants) heterotrophs are organisms that cannot produce their own food and eat other organisms for food. A food chain shows a series of organisms each dependent on the next as a source of food
How will you explain the line'' no organism is independent''?
No organism can exist without other organisms. Plants rely on bacteria, fungi, and invertebrates in the soil to make nutrients available to them. The soil organisms rely on the plants to provide food for them. The animals that eat the plants, the herbivores, rely on the plants for food, and thus they also rely on the soil organisms. The soil organisms and the plants benefit from the herbivores because they provide additional fertilizer for the soil in the form of manure. Most plants rely on pollinators to help them make seeds, and the pollinators rely on those plants for food. Carnivores rely on all of the above organisms so that they have herbivores to eat. Without the carnivores, the herbivore population would get out of control, and the plants would be overeaten. Without the herbivores, the plants would overpopulate and alter the balance of the ecosystem in a harmful way."No organism is independent" refers to the food chain. It means that every organism is dependent on some other organism for its life. Only plants are somewhat independent as they are only dependent on sun to make food.
Does all living things eat other living things?
No, autotrophs are organisms which can create their own food. An example of an autotroph is a plant. Plants produce food by the means of photosynthesis. Plants are at the bottom of trophic levels, and are food for all other organisms. Heterotrophs are organisms which do consume other organisms for food.
Why is it not possible to classify organisms as omnivores in a food chain?
no because all organisms have to be plants or animals
What are producer plants?
plants are known as producers because they make their own food by the process of photosynthesis.
What consumers do trees have?
Producers are organisms that can make their own food. Consumers are organisms that eat other organisms for food. By and large, it is ONLY the plants that are producers (they make food by harvesting the energy of sunlight). As trees and grass are both plants then they are producers.
Autotrophs which make their own food are also called?
Autotrophs are organisms that are able to manufacture their food from simple inorganic substances,they are also called producers.
Why is a food web important?
that living organisms directly or indirectly are dependent on each other(plants and animals) for food. like humans are dependant on both these things.many animals eat plants and ,many eat animals.many also eat both.so there is a balance.if any of the organism of food chain is disturbed there would be ecological problems.
