12. POPULATION = 1 SPECIES (1 specific type of organism)

13. POPULATION = 1 SPECIES (1 specific type of organism) COMMUNITY = ????

14. POPULATION = 1 SPECIES (1 specific type of organism) COMMUNITY = ????

15. POPULATION = 1 SPECIES (1 specific type of organism) COMMUNITY = SEVERAL POPULATIONS of organisms in a common location

16. POPULATION = 1 SPECIES (1 specific type of organism) COMMUNITY = SEVERAL POPULATIONS of organisms in a common location ECOSYSTEM = ??? IS IT BIGGER?

17. POPULATION = 1 SPECIES (1 specific type of organism) COMMUNITY = SEVERAL POPULATIONS of organisms in a common location ECOSYSTEM = ???

18. POPULATION = 1 SPECIES (1 specific type of organism) COMMUNITY = SEVERAL POPULATIONS of organisms in a common location ECOSYSTEM = ??? IS IT BIGGER? USUALLY

19. POPULATION = 1 SPECIES (1 specific type of organism) COMMUNITY = SEVERAL POPULATIONS of organisms in a common location ECOSYSTEM = DOES IT INCLUDE ONLY BIOTIC THINGS?

20. POPULATION = 1 SPECIES (1 specific type of organism) COMMUNITY = SEVERAL POPULATIONS of organisms in a common location ECOSYSTEM = ANY NUMBER of COMMUNITIES that SHARE a common ENVIRONMENT INCLUDING their ABIOTIC components

21. do diagram on bd.

22. draw this for an easy way to remember!
population
