1 Ecology and the Biosphere

2 Ecology is the study of interactions between organisms and the environment. Ecology and the Biosphere

3 Ecology is the study of interactions between organisms and the environment. It is not the same thing as environmentalism, but the two are related. Ecology and the Biosphere

4 Population: individuals of the same species Community: all of the species that live in an area Ecosystem: abiotic factors as well as the community Biosphere: the global ecosystem. Ecology and the Biosphere

5 Ecosystem ecology deals with energy flow and chemical cycling among biotic and abiotic components. Ecology and the Biosphere

6 The distribution of species Ecology and the Biosphere

7 The distribution of species Dispersal: natural range expansion species transplants Ecology and the Biosphere

8 The distribution of species Behavior and habitat selection Ecology and the Biosphere

9 Biotic factors: predators parasites competition disease The distribution of species Behavior and habitat selection

10 Ecology and the Biosphere Biotic factors: predators parasites competition disease The distribution of species Behavior and habitat selection Abiotic factors: temperature water sunlight wind rocks and soil
