Ecosystems

Ecology and ecosystem are all similar in the fact that they interwine with each other. Ecology is the study of the environment (both abiotic and biotic factors), which include the ecosystem (those of different geographical with the environment in which these animals/plants deal with.

While ecology is the study of the environment and all the factors, the ecosystem is the geographical location where different species interact with each other and the environment around them such as temperature, the environment , on the other hand is merely the abiotic factors (non-living things such as the temperature, water, wind, weather, etc.) that play a role in an organism niche.

Factors that affect the choice of destination include budget, time availability, personal interests and preferences, safety and security concerns, accessibility, weather and climate, cultural attractions, and recommendations from others.

The types of climax communities are:

1. Climax forest: dominated by large, mature trees in a stable ecosystem.
2. Climax grassland: characterized by stable grasses and herbaceous plants.
3. Climax shrubland: dominated by woody shrubs in a mature and stable state.

Long term effects include habitat loss, species extinction, and disruptions in food chains. We can help by supporting conservation efforts, reducing our carbon footprint, and advocating for policies that protect natural habitats and wildlife. Additionally, promoting sustainable practices and raising awareness about the importance of biodiversity can also make a positive impact on ecosystems and animals.

Niche: an organism's role in the environment.

Habitat: specifically where it lives.

For example, many organisms maybe have the same habitat (under a log, if we're considering insects), but as long as they occupy different niches, they will not be in competition.

Living things have the ability to grow, reproduce, and respond to stimuli, while non-living things do not possess these characteristics. Living things require energy and nutrients for survival, whereas non-living things do not have these requirements. Living things also have a complex organization of cells, tissues, and organs, while non-living things are typically composed of inanimate matter.

When drafting, it's important to prioritize clarity and logical flow of ideas. The main focus should be on developing a strong thesis statement or central argument, supported by relevant evidence and analysis. Additionally, attention should be paid to organization, coherence, and adherence to the assignment guidelines.

The process of nitrogen fixation is most responsible for making nitrogen available for plants. This is when certain bacteria in the soil or in the roots of leguminous plants convert atmospheric nitrogen into a form that can be taken up by plants as nutrients.

We would all die.

First, birds help to control the insects. A single bird will, in its lifetime, eat well over a million insects. Insects produce at the rate of thousands per month. If all of the birds died suddenly we would be overrun with insects in a matter of weeks or months.

Second, some birds help pollinate flowers. Thus, without some birds - some flowers would die which would then cause more problems and we would suffer from this. Think hummingbirds.

Third, birds propagate more quickly. The rule of thumb is - the smaller the creature the faster it propagates. This is why larger creatures depend upon them for food. Think chickens. What would happen if all chickens disappeared? A hen can lay up to six eggs at a time. Thus, we use the chicken to feed millions of people because they reproduce rapidly. Now think of cows. Cows can only have young once or twice a year. It also takes months to grow a calf into something we can slaughter and eat. A chicken not only will mature - but it can produce two or three clutches of eggs in the same time frame. Thus, without chickens millions of people would die of starvation.

Fourth - plant propagation. Not all of the seeds a bird picks up are eaten by the bird and some do not break down. Tomato plant seeds are a good example. When you eat a tomato the seeds are hard enough that they simply pass through your body and are excreted. The same can happen to birds. The difference is that with birds the seeds to dropped outside where they can grow. Also birds will pick up seeds and carry them off someplace and then accidentally drop them. They therefore have transplanted the seed from one location to another.

Conclusions: Mankind is dependent upon birds to help them live. Without them, mankind might perish. It is certain though that even if mankind did not perish we would certainly be changed in ways which would be both dramatic as well as detrimental. Think of the problems we are having because the honey bees are disappearing. Should they die out completely - we will have major problems growing food and millions of people will die. It is my sincere belief that this problem began with the advent of cell phones. We already know that wildlife is able to (and is affected by) ultrasonic sounds. Cell phones are just another of those ultrasonic sounds. We already know that the new sonar systems which were recently developed is causing whales and other marine life to beach themselves in an effort to get away from the screaming they hear but which we can not hear. Yet we are turning a blind eye to their deaths not realizing that we are killing ourselves when we destroy the marine life. In our rush to be able to play that next big app whereever we might be - we are destroying those things that make it possible for us to live on this planet. At the rate we are going - we will kill ourselves off in less than another hundred years. Pollution, radiation, pesticides, and more - all are killing the insects, birds, and other creatures all over the world. Added to this the needless slaughter of all marine life and you have your answer: Powerful people who don't care about those creatures who can not speak the language you speak but who have souls just like us, can feel pain just like us, and are being slaughtered by the thousands for no other reason than that they are just in the way.

If you want to know what would happen if there were no birds - you only have to wait because unless we change what we are doing and how we are doing it - there won't be any birds left much longer.

In the Bible it says that man was made to rule over the other creatures of the world. Rule - not slaughter - not massacre - rule. You can't rule over something that is dead. Change the world - save the birds.

A producer actually produces it's own food. it's in the name of it. producer produces. It's usually a plant that's a producer. They produce there own food using photosynthesis. You're welcome.

Examples of organisms that break down waste or dead organisms include bacteria, fungi, and certain types of insects like beetles and worms. These organisms play a crucial role in the decomposition process, breaking down organic materials into simpler forms that can be recycled back into the ecosystem.

Yes, the photosynthetic organisms are regulated near the surface according to surchams theory, and the microorganisms innterrelated neighbours are found near the focus of the ocean on the oceanic boundary.

The ecosystem is where we live, our environment, containing our sustinence and our shelter. I believe you phrased the question wrong, ecosystem isnt located in one particular place, there is no source it's all around us.

depends... if one organism is hurting the other then it is parasitism like a flea on a dog, if it benefits both then it is commensilism like a bird that eats the bugs off an elephant, the bird gets lunch and the elephant gets cleaned I don't remember the last one but it's when one benefits while the other isn't harmed like the fish that catch a ride on the sharks and the sharks don't care. these three things are all called Symbiosis.

The main factors that affect information dissemination include the communication channels used, the credibility of the source, the relevance of the information to the audience, the timing of the message, and the form in which the information is presented. Other factors can include the audience's level of interest, their access to technology, and potential barriers such as language or cultural differences.

It basically gets transferred from plant, to animal, and so on.

Example:

A caterpillar eats a leaf. It gets eaten by a spider, who in turn gets eaten by a bird. The bird gets eaten by a fox, and the fox will eventually die. The decomposer (what ever it or they might be. Like a maggot.) breaks down the fox's carcase which then gives nutrients into the ground. Then, plants can use the nutrients to grow. The cycle then starts over again.

The Amazon rainforest is estimated to produce about 20% of the world's oxygen. However, it is important to note that the majority of the Earth's oxygen comes from phytoplankton in the oceans.

Yes,both organisms benefit from each other.

Natural events such as wildfires, volcanic eruptions, or earthquakes generally do not upset the balance of nature as they are part of the natural cycle. Additionally, minimal human intervention in ecosystems, such as sustainable hunting and fishing practices, is less likely to disrupt the balance of nature.

Yes, both organisms benefit in a mutualism relationship. They have a mutually beneficial exchange of resources or services that enhance the fitness of both individuals. This type of relationship promotes survival and growth for both species involved.

Personification is the process of giving human nature or motives (anger, revenge, love etc.) in literature or similar activities to non-human things. This includes animals, mountains, buildings, nations etc.

When you give animals, specifically.a wide range of human attributes (speech, wear clothes, live in little cottages in the woods, etc.) you anthropomorphize them. The process is anthropomorphism.

One is we support the plant life's natural process of photosynthesis by simply breathing. We send carbon dioxide (CO2) into the air for the plants to use. Another way we support an ecosystem is by creating balance in some places by not letting a single species become more dominant than the rest. Another way is we set laws against harming endangered species and we set up reserves to make sure that these places are safe. I hope this helped!

Grass poking through a crack in a sidewalk is an example of secondary succession. This is because the sidewalk already existed, and the grass is growing after a disturbance (such as the cracking of the sidewalk) has occurred, allowing for new plant growth in the area.

Imagine an acre of fenced in grassland; nothing can get in and nothing can leave. You put in 10 rabbits. There is plenty of grass (energy) and no predators, so the rabbits reproduce like---rabbits! For a while, everything is OK (carrying capacity) but eventually, the number of rabbits will outstrip the available energy source and some will begin to starve and reproductive rates will drop. An ecosystem can only support so many organisms, and energy is the basis of that support.
