All the interacting organisms living in
an area
occurs on a surface where an
ecosystem previously
existed
One individual captures, kills, and consumes another
individual
Gain or loss of money or jobs
Part of the water cycle that brings
water back to Earth
Cold temperatures,
little precipiation, moss, caribou
The living components of
the environment
First organisms to colonize a newly available area
A harmless species resembles a poisonous or
distasteful species
Accumulation and use of knowledge
Only organisms that can use nitrogen gas
directly from the atmosphere
Moderate temperatures,
little precipitation, tall grasses, grazing
animals
Ability to adjust tolerance to abiotic
factors
Succession that occurs on surfaces
where no ecosystem existed
before
Results from niche overlap—the use of
the same limited resource by two or
more species
What is beautiful or pleasing
Process in which organisms
incorporate CO2 from the air into
organic compounds
4 seasons, moderate
precipitation, maple, deer
An organism’s way of life
Mutualism that is involved in breaking down rock into soil
A cooperative relationship in which both species benefit
What is right or wrong
Two ways carbon is returned to the
atmosphere
Warm temperatures,
abundant rain, tall grasses, cheetahs
Species with very broad niches
Community that eventually forms if
the land is left undisturbed
An interaction in which one species benefits and the
other is not affected
Maintaining human communities and respecting their
values
Most common form of nitrogen in the
atmosphere
Cool temperatures,
moderate precipitation, evergreens,
moose
