Chapter 14: Interactions in the Ecosystem
![Page 2: Chapter 14: Interactions in the Ecosystem. Niche versus Habit? Habitat Habitat – describes all of the abiotic and biotic factors in the area where an](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062222/5697bf931a28abf838c8f6f2/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
Niche versus Habit?• Habitat – describes all of the abiotic and biotic factors in
the area where an organism lives• Niche– All the biotic and abiotic factors that a species
will need to survive and reproduce• Includes–Food–Abiotic conditions–Behavior

Habitat versus Niche
![Page 4: Chapter 14: Interactions in the Ecosystem. Niche versus Habit? Habitat Habitat – describes all of the abiotic and biotic factors in the area where an](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062222/5697bf931a28abf838c8f6f2/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
What kind of interactions can organisms in the same community have ?
Think of how you interact with people you know. What kind of interactions are they?FriendshipCompetitorEnemyNo relationship

1. Competition– Two organisms fight for the same limited
resources• Food• Space• Mates• Oxygen and Sunlight
Community Interactions

2. Predator – Prey Relationship– One species captures and feed on another– What happens when the prey population increases to
the predator population? – What happens when the predator population
increases to the prey population?• The two are directly proportional to each other
It increases also
It decreases and then the prey decrease

3. Symbiosis– Close relationship between two or more
organisms of different species which interact with each other

a) Mutualism– Both benefit from the interaction
![Page 9: Chapter 14: Interactions in the Ecosystem. Niche versus Habit? Habitat Habitat – describes all of the abiotic and biotic factors in the area where an](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062222/5697bf931a28abf838c8f6f2/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
b) Commensalism– One organism benefits from the relationship
and the other is unharmed

c) Parasitism– One organism benefits and the other is harmed

Carrying CapacityIs the maximum number of
individuals of a particular species which the environment could support
When year did the population first reach carrying capacity?
What is the carrying capacity for this population size?
What is your prediction for population size immediately following WWII?
~1850
~1.6 million people
It will decrease

What ecological factors limit population growth?
1. Density- Dependent limiting factors– Limiting factors that are affected by the
population’s size• Competition – limited resources causes a
struggle for survival (Darwin!!)• Predation – as the predator’s population
increases, the prey population decreases• Parasitism and disease – the three things that
control a population’s size are war, disease and famine!! (Malthus!!)

2. Density – Independent limiting factors– Factors in the environment that limits a
population’s growth that have nothing to do with the size of the population• Weather• Natural disasters• Human activity

Density dependent or density independent factors?
1. Competition between members of population.
2. Predation.3. A hurricane drowning many earthworms
4. Disease5. Burning of a forest6. A very cold winter

What follows the Natural Disaster?
• Succession– A sequence of biotic changes that regenerates a
damaged community or a bare, new area– What follows a forest fire?– What happens after a volcano?– What occurred after the asteroid hit the earth?
![Page 18: Chapter 14: Interactions in the Ecosystem. Niche versus Habit? Habitat Habitat – describes all of the abiotic and biotic factors in the area where an](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062222/5697bf931a28abf838c8f6f2/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Primary Succession starts from bare rock• Pioneer species are the first to inhabit the area– Lichens and mosses• Break down minerals in rock to allow for soil to build up• Soil gets thicker and now grasses can start to grow.• Next comes small shrubs then trees• Final community is the CLIMAX community which are large
trees like Oaks and Pines

• Usually occurs in areas that have been disturbed– Bulldozed or cleared area– Fire– Flood– Hurricane
Secondary Succession starts from soil
