The Parts of an Ecosystem
An ecosystem is the network of interactions (or links) between the living and non-living parts of an environment.

The Parts of an Ecosystem
What would be some living parts of an environment? Living parts of an environment are called bio4c elements. These include things like: • Plants • Animals • Birds • Fish • Insects • Bacteria

The Parts of an Ecosystem
Species – organisms of the same type that can reproduce to create offspring (e.g., fish, deer). Population – all the members of one species living in an area (e.g., all the turtles, all the ferns). Community – all the different populations living in an area (e.g., all the deer, fish, frogs, turtles, ferns, water lilies).

The Parts of an Ecosystem
What would be some non-living parts of an environment?
Non-‐living parts of an environment are called abio4c elements. These include things like: • Sunlight • Water (Rain, Snow) • Air (Wind, Clouds) • Sand, Soil, Rocks

The Needs of Living Things
A habitat is the physical space where an organism lives and where its basic needs for survival are met.
Sunlight • Plants use sunlight to make their own
food (sugar) through a process called photosynthesis.
• Amount of sunlight determines what can grow o e.g., dandelions like sun o e.g., ferns prefer shade o e.g., kelp grows near water surface

The Needs of Living Things
Sunlight • Animals obtain energy
indirectly from sunlight as they eat plants, or animals that themselves eat plants.
• Some animals require sunlight to warm their bodies.

The Needs of Living Things
Water • Plants need water to grow
and produce food. • Animals need water to
digest food and form body fluids.
• Some organisms need water to live in.
Did you know…? Water makes up about 60-65% of the human body.

The Needs of Living Things
Air • Humans and other
organisms breathe air to obtain oxygen.
• Plants absorb CO2 from the air to help them make food (sugar).
• Plants make oxygen, and without plants, there wouldn’t be enough oxygen in the air.

The Needs of Living Things
Food • Provides organisms with
nutrients, needed for energy and growth.
• Nutrients include: o Sugars o Starches o Fats o Proteins o Vitamins o Minerals

The Needs of Living Things
Temperature • Organisms can usually survive within a
certain range of temperature. • Too hot or too cold for a period of 4me
can be dangerous.
Shelter • Some form of protec4on or
home for an organism. • e.g., nest, cave, tree, reef
