Discover how living things interact in ecosystems, from patterns in space and time to symbiotic relationships. Explore concepts like competition, cooperation, and symbiosis, and learn about population dynamics and ecosystem balance. Witness primary and secondary succession, where biological communities evolve. Gain insights into how organisms rely on each other for survival and understand the delicate balance of nature in maintaining ecosystems.

  1. Interactions Within Ecosystems http://www.kidsgeo.com/images/ecosystem.jpg

  2. Groups of living things interact within ecosystems • The environment can be organized into five levels • Biome : region with similar climate, types of plants, and animals • Ecosystem: The living and non-living things that interact in one environment. • Community: The living organisms of an ecosystem • Population: A group of organisms of the same species that live in the same area. • Organism: A single living thing, made up of one or many cells, that is capable of growing and reproducing.

  3. Patterns Exist in Populations http://farm1.static.flickr.com/90/208997985_692784c75f.jpg • Patterns in Living Space • Animals in a habitat are located based on food supplies, water, and shelter locations. • Some animals live in large groups for safety ( fish and elephants ) http://www.biology-blog.com/images/blogs/3-2007/the-majestic-elephants-of-southern.jpg

  4. Patterns in Time • Population sizes can change with seasons • Many organisms migrate to other areas (monarch butterflies and birds) http://www.learner.org/jnorth/images/graphics/monarch/monarch13.jpg

  5. Organisms Interact in Different Ways • Organisms may cooperate, compete, or depend on each other for survival • Predator and Prey relationships • Predators can affect how the prey populations are distributed (fish in large groups) • Preycan affect the location and number in predator populations (birds feeding on insects migrate to the areas where the insects are plentiful)

  6. Competition Competition is the struggle between individuals or different populations for a limited resource http://cache.eb.com/eb/image?id=95240&rendTypeId=4 Organisms Interact in Different Ways

  7. Competition can happen with the same species (plants compete for light, space, and nutrients) Competition between different species (hyenas and vultures compete for remains of dead animals) http://www.duiops.net/seresvivos/galeria/hienas/hyena-and-whitebacked-vultures-01301147b.jpg

  8. Organisms Interact in Different Ways • Cooperation • Some organisms work together to benefit each other • Killer whales hunt in pods (groups) • Ants, bees, and termites (members of a colony have different roles and responsibilities…queen bee, worker bees, etc.) http://www.apitherapy.com.au/contents/media/l_bee%20pollen%20dw.jpg

  9. Survival of One Species Might Depend on Another Species • Symbiosis: two different species who live together in a close relationship • Both species benefit • One species benefits while the other is not affected • One species benefits while the other is harmed

  10. Types of Symbiosis • Mutualism:Two species interacting with each other that benefits both species. (bees and flowers) http://www.physicalgeography.net/fundamentals/images/bee_flower.jpg

  11. Types of Symbiosis • Commensalism: two species interacting with each other with one species benefiting and the other unaffected. (jellyfish and fish) http://www.immediart.com/catalog/images/big_images/SPL_R_Z140032-Jellyfish_with_fish-SPL.jpg

  12. Types of Symbiosis • Parasitism: two species interacting while one species benefits and the host species is harmed • Examples of human parasites. http://www.gifam.org/pic006.htm

  13. Populations Change Over Time • Population growth and decline • Predator-prey interactions can affect population increase or decrease ( as a wolf population increases the moose population decreases) • Birth rate may decline or increase http://www.sciencedaily.com/images/2007/10/071019183055-large.jpg

  14. Populations Change Over Time • Limiting factors: any factor or condition that limits the growth of a population in an ecosystem (food, water, light, large group of predators, small group of prey) http://www.tpwd.state.tx.us/learning/hunter_education/homestudy/wildlife/wildlife/limit.phtml?print=true

  15. Maintaining a Balance in an Ecosystem • Carrying Capacity: the maximum number of individuals that an ecosystem can support. • Limiting factors affect the carrying capacity http://www.hunter-ed.com/images/graphics/carrying_capacity_chart.gif

  16. Ecosystems change over time • Succession: the gradual change in an ecosystem in which one biological community is replaced by another. http://i43.photobucket.com/albums/e358/urbanscout/succession-subsistence-1.jpg

  17. Primary Succession • Primary succession: The establishment of a new biological community in an area of bare rocks. (plants moving in after a lava flow or glacier retreats) http://cache.eb.com/eb/image?id=95197&rendTypeId=36

  18. Secondary Succession • Secondary Succession: Occurs after a major disturbance happens and the soil still remains. (forest fire) http://cache.eb.com/eb/image?id=95198&rendTypeId=36

  19. Main Points on Organism Interactions in Ecosystems • Groups of living things interact within ecosystems (biome, ecosystem, community, population, organism) • Organisms can interact in different ways (symbiosis: mutualism, commensalism, parasitism) • Ecosystems are always changing (primary and secondary succession)
