Introduction
Urie bronfenbrenner has proposed a model known as the ecological model. The model explains out the human development with relation to entire ecological system in which he lives, infect in which growth occurs . Before explanation I would like to focus on some key words of the assignment that is important part in understanding the model.
Ecology
Ecology is the branch of biology that deals with the relations of organism to one another and to their physical surroundings.
Cary institute of ecosystem studies(2014) given the definition of ecology as ‘the scientific study of process influencing the distribution and abundance of organism, the interactions among organisms, and the interaction between organism and the transformation and influx of energy and matter’.

ecological system. He goes on, he says that ecological system is made up of five socially organized subsystems and these subsystems impact on his or her development by providing help, support and guidance. These subsystem vary from micro system to macro system, former has direct interaction with individual like school and family while later has indirect interaction the cultural environment in which the person lives and all other system that affect. The most of the theories which supports the ecological systems have been given by Urie bronfenbrenner; his theories are the result of analysis and integration of results from imperial investigations done for several years by the researches from different …show more content…
The Chrono System

Ecology is how organisms interact with each other and the environment. The Lion King is linked to ecology by showing how organisms interact with each other and the environment. My three topics are how symbiotic relationships are important to a community, how limiting factors affect a community, how communities respond to abiotic or biotic factors, and how this is linked to the movie and Ecology. Symbiotic Relationships are interactions between two species and how they affect each other. There are three different types of symbiotic relationships Mutualism, Commensalism, and Parasitism.
As defined by “Environmental Science- 14th Edition”, an ecosystem is “a set of organisms within a defined area or volume that interact with one another and with their environment of nonliving matter and energy.” I will be using the computer simulation to alter the interactions of the organisms in the ecosystem to see what changes occur.
Ecology is the branch of biology that studies the relationship between organisms and their environment. Ecology is a basic tool of environmental science.
Urie Bronfenbrenner’s ecological systems theory encompasses every aspect of Adam Lanza’s development. His theory separates the environment into four distinct systems, which are Microsystem, Mesosystem, Exosystem, Macrosystem and Chronosystem. In the following, I will apply his theory to the specific case as described above. I will also analyze
The Ecological Theory is not being probed in this research; it is limited to be an organizing tool. The interview guide that we use tried to include all the systems in the theory (macro, micro, meso, exo, and crhono5), and their probable relations through different issues, which will correspond to one or more systems. However, even the theory would not define the study, it contributes to the design.
Ecological theory describes four levels of the environment that interconnect and impact people. Moving from the most intimate individual system to a broader inclusion you can identify the many systems that play a role in individual’s lives and well-being. These interactions could be harmonious and create homeostasis or could be disharmonious and cause stress.
The book defines ecological, as “a type of sociological approach that emphasizes demographics and geo
Ecology: The study of the interactions between organisms and the other living and nonliving components of their environment.
Ecosystem: a system formed by the interaction of a community of organisms with their environment
The Bronfenbrenner’s Ecological Systems is a model created by psychologist Urie Bronfenbrenner that refers to five structures of which an individual interacts with that impacts their development. The structures are referred to as systems in the model and there are five systems: Microsystem, Mesosystem, Exosystem, Macrosystem, Chronosystem.
"Ecological systems theory is an approach to study of human development that consists of the 'scientific study of the progressive, mutual accommodation, throughout the life course, between an active, growing human being, and the changing properties of the immediate settings in which the developing person lives, as this process is affected by the relations between these settings, and by the larger contexts in which the settings are embedded'" (Bronfenbrenner, 1989, page or #). When reading and researching to gain deeper understanding and
Developmental psychologist Urie Bronfenbrenner first introduced the Ecologicial Systems model in the 1970’s. Bronfenbrenner argued that to understand human development, the environment in which the person belongs must be understood (Bronfenbrenner, U.1979). The Ecological Systems model concentrically depicts how a person’s development is influenced by their wider environment. In the original model there were four ecological levels in the system, however in 1979 Bronfenbrenner added an additional fifth level (Bronfenbrenner, U. 1994). With the developing person in the centre, the five progressive levels of environment include the microsystem, mesosystem, exosystem, marcosystem and the chronosystem.
1.) When taking the organism, population, community and ecosystem approaches to study ecology one needs consider that there are levels that layout the specific details of what each approach is. For organism approach, the processes look at the way an individual live in an environment and how this individual behaves and adaption within its surrounding. The population approach concerns over a group of organisms, the number of female and male, the differences within organisms, the similarity that they share, and their genetic makeup within a whole population. The processes and structures to understand the community deal with understanding of the diversity and different groups of organisms living in the same place. The ecosystem approach looks at the overall chemical reaction which is the transfer of energy and matter to make life possible. The processes occur in the atmosphere, aquatic, and on land.
The ecological theory of development that was proposed by Urie Bronfenbrenner (1917-2005), is relevant to state all of our lives. Bronfenbrenner’s research demonstrates how our development is affected by the environment in which we live. The model consist of five major systems; microsystem, mesosystem, exosystem, macrosystem, and chronosystem. "Ecological systems theory is an approach to study of human development that consists of the scientific study of the progressive, mutual accommodation, throughout the life course, between an active, growing human being, and the changing properties of the immediate settings in which the developing person lives, as this process is affected by the relations between these settings, and by the larger
Ecology today can be defined as “the study of the interrelationships between living things and their environment”. It is important to understand that when we say that ecology includes the “environment”, we are talking about everything that is external to an organism, all the biotic and abiotic. Nowadays it also attempts to understand and explain the how and why of the origins and mechanisms of interactions.
