Organisms can have both direct and indirect effects on other members of their ecosystem. Match the definition with the correct terms below: V [Choose ] occur when organisms have a close relationship such as predation, competition, or Direct effects Indirect effects mutualism. Positive effect occur when an organism example affects other members of the ecosystem with which they do not have a close relationship. Trophic cascad When changes in one part of a trophic pyramid have an effect on other, sometimes unrelated, parts a predators effect on its prey species because the more predators you have, the fewer the prey.

Many people who want to reduce their ecological footprinthave focused on how much energy is expended (and howmany climate-warming greenhouse gases are emitted) intransporting food from its place of production to its place ofsale. The typical grocery store item is shipped by truck, air,and/or sea for many hundreds of miles before reaching theshelves, and this transport consumes oil. This concern over“food-miles” has helped drive the “locavore” movement tobuy and eat locally sourced food.However, food’s transport from producer to retailer, asmeasured by food-miles, is just one source of carbon emissionsin the overall process of producing and delivering food. In2008, environmental scientists Christopher Weber and H. ScottMathews conducted a thorough life-cycle analysis (p. 400) ofU.S. food production and delivery. By filling in the table below,you will get a better idea of how our dietary choices contribute toclimate change. After measuring mass, energy content, and dollar valuefor each…
