UNIT 5: ECOLOGY
Chapter 13: The Principles of Ecology
I. Ecologists Study Relationships (13.1)
A. Ecologists study environments at different
levels of organization
1. Ecology- study of the interactions
among living things and their
surroundings. From Greek
“oikos” meaning house.
In simpler terms: Ecology is the study of an
organism and how it interacts with it’s environment.

II. Biotic and Abiotic Factors (13.2)
A. An ecosystem includes both biotic and abiotic
factors
1. Biotic- includes living things
![Page 6: Digital Unit Plan Lecture](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022030318/5aab55f17f8b9a43728b4c5b/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
2. Abiotic- includes nonliving things such as
moisture, temperature, wind, sunlight, and soil
![Page 7: Digital Unit Plan Lecture](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022030318/5aab55f17f8b9a43728b4c5b/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
B. Changing one factor in an ecosystem can affect
many other factors
a. amount
depends on
many factors
b. tropical
rainforests
have large
biodiversity
1. Biodiversity- the assortment, or variety, of
living things in an ecosystem
![Page 8: Digital Unit Plan Lecture](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022030318/5aab55f17f8b9a43728b4c5b/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
2. Keystone species- a species that has an
unusually large effect on its ecosystem
a. loss of this species may cause ripple effect
felt across entire ecosystem
![Page 9: Digital Unit Plan Lecture](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022030318/5aab55f17f8b9a43728b4c5b/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
b. Example- beaver changes habitat for many other
species by creating ponds
Question:
What do you
think would
happen if the
beavers went
extinct?

Wolves at Yellowstone
![Page 11: Digital Unit Plan Lecture](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022030318/5aab55f17f8b9a43728b4c5b/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
III. Energy in Ecosystems (13.3)
A. Producers provide energy for other
organisms in an ecosystem
1. Producer (autotroph)-
get their energy from
nonliving resources (make
their own food).
2. Consumer (heterotroph)-
Get their energy by eating other
living things such as plants
and animals.
![Page 12: Digital Unit Plan Lecture](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022030318/5aab55f17f8b9a43728b4c5b/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
B. Almost all producers obtain energy from sunlight
![Page 13: Digital Unit Plan Lecture](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022030318/5aab55f17f8b9a43728b4c5b/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
1. Most producers on Earth use sunlight as energy
source using photosynthesis.
2. photosynthesis converts light energy (sunlight)
into chemical energy (carbohydrates)
![Page 14: Digital Unit Plan Lecture](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022030318/5aab55f17f8b9a43728b4c5b/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
C. Chemosynthesis- organisms make
carbohydrates using chemicals instead of sunlight
1. Found in deep-
sea thermal vents
and sulfur-rich
marsh flats and
hydrothermal pools
2. can be basis for
thriving ecosystems
![Page 15: Digital Unit Plan Lecture](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022030318/5aab55f17f8b9a43728b4c5b/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
![Page 16: Digital Unit Plan Lecture](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022030318/5aab55f17f8b9a43728b4c5b/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
IV. Food Chains and Food Webs (13.4)
A. Food chain- sequence that links species by
their feeding relationships.
1. only follows connections between one
producer and single chain of consumers
2. simplest way to look at energy flow in
an ecosystem
![Page 17: Digital Unit Plan Lecture](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022030318/5aab55f17f8b9a43728b4c5b/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
CIRCLE OF LIFE
![Page 18: Digital Unit Plan Lecture](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022030318/5aab55f17f8b9a43728b4c5b/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
B. Types of consumers
1. Herbivores- eat only plants
2. Carnivores- eat only animals
3. Omnivores- eat both plant
and animals
![Page 19: Digital Unit Plan Lecture](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022030318/5aab55f17f8b9a43728b4c5b/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
CAN YOU NAME SOME OTHER
HERBIVORES? CARNIVORES? HOW
ABOUT A WELL KNOWN OMNIVORE?
![Page 20: Digital Unit Plan Lecture](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022030318/5aab55f17f8b9a43728b4c5b/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
4. Detritivores- organisms that eat detritus (dead
organic matter)
![Page 21: Digital Unit Plan Lecture](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022030318/5aab55f17f8b9a43728b4c5b/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
5. Decomposers- break down organic matter into
simpler compounds
a. Fungi and bacteria
b. Important to stability of
ecosystem by returning
nutrients back into the
environment
![Page 22: Digital Unit Plan Lecture](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022030318/5aab55f17f8b9a43728b4c5b/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
6. Organism may focus on single organism to feed
(specialist), or have varying diet (generalist)
![Page 23: Digital Unit Plan Lecture](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022030318/5aab55f17f8b9a43728b4c5b/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Specialists or generalist?
![Page 24: Digital Unit Plan Lecture](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022030318/5aab55f17f8b9a43728b4c5b/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
C. Trophic levels- level in a food chain
1. Producers always first
level
2. Primary consumers
next level (herbivore)
3. Secondary consumer-
eat herbivores (carnivore)
4. Tertiary consumer-
carnivores that eat
secondary consumers.
![Page 25: Digital Unit Plan Lecture](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022030318/5aab55f17f8b9a43728b4c5b/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
D. A food web shows a complex network of feeding
relationships
1. Food web- organism may have multiple
feeding relationships.
2. Stability of food web depends on presence of
producers (forms base of food web)
![Page 26: Digital Unit Plan Lecture](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022030318/5aab55f17f8b9a43728b4c5b/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
![Page 27: Digital Unit Plan Lecture](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022030318/5aab55f17f8b9a43728b4c5b/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
V. Cycling of Matter (13.5)
A. Water cycles through the environment
1. Hydrologic cycle (water cycle)-
circular pathway of water on Earth
2. Flows from
atmosphere to the
surface, below ground
and back and involves
humans and other
organisms.
![Page 28: Digital Unit Plan Lecture](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022030318/5aab55f17f8b9a43728b4c5b/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
B. Elements essential for life also cycle through
ecosystems
1. biogeochemical cycles- movement of a
particular chemical through biological and
geological parts of an ecosystem
a. Oxygen cycle- cycle
of photosynthesis and
cellular respiration
![Page 29: Digital Unit Plan Lecture](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022030318/5aab55f17f8b9a43728b4c5b/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
b. Carbon cycle-flow of carbon through environment
1). Carbon essential for organic
compounds (carbohydrates, proteins, fats,
etc.)
![Page 30: Digital Unit Plan Lecture](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022030318/5aab55f17f8b9a43728b4c5b/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
2). Simplest transfer occurs between plants and
animals (photosynthesis and cellular respiration)
![Page 31: Digital Unit Plan Lecture](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022030318/5aab55f17f8b9a43728b4c5b/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
c. Nitrogen cycle- conversion of nitrogen gas (N2) in
atmosphere into compounds that living things can
utilize.
![Page 32: Digital Unit Plan Lecture](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022030318/5aab55f17f8b9a43728b4c5b/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
1). Nitrogen fixation- converting gaseous nitrogen
(N2) into ammonia (NH3) (used by certain bacteria)
2). Denitrifying bacteria- convert nitrogen
compounds back to nitrogen gas.
![Page 33: Digital Unit Plan Lecture](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022030318/5aab55f17f8b9a43728b4c5b/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
d. Phosphorus cycle- returns phosphorus to
environment (phosphorus is limiting factor for plant
growth)
