Biodiversity is what makes the planet earth unique and different from every other planet in the solar system. Biodiversity can be studied on a global level all the way down to studying it within a microscopic ecosystem (National Wildlife Federation, 2015). It is important to understand that biodiversity can be looked at genetically as well as environmentally as well. For example, genetic biodiversity is seen in the variation of different breeds within the dog species, while environmental biodiversity
Abstract Duckweed is a small aquatic plant that is able to grow rapidly, making it the ideal specimen for our experiment. It is hypothesized that altering the amount of light received by duckweed will alter its photosynthetic rate. It is predicted that a lower light intensity will lower the rate of growth in duckweed. Two treatment groups were covered with a screen in order to reduce light intensity. Both groups were kept under a controlled light source for fourteen days and plant counts were
Plants are found everywhere on earth, up high on the ridge and down low in caves and caverns. The types of plants that live in these places depends on many factors. These factors are separated into two different categories, the biotic factors and the abiotic factors. Some of the biotic factors include, predation, competition, and habitat destruction. Plants with limited competition and large amounts of resources will be in a higher abundance than plants with limited resources and higher competition
The Caribbean Sea in located off the coast of North, Central, and South Americas. This sea spans about two million, seven hundred and fifty-three thousand square kilometers. There are also many islands found in the midst of the Caribbean Sea. While these islands are a great place for a vacation, the populations of people on the islands can affect life. Many different factors influence life in the Caribbean Sea. These factors are divided into two categories; abiotic factors and biotic factors. These

Taiga Biome Take a peek inside to learn all about the magnificent Taiga biome. As we travel through the Taiga you will be taken to four different locations. 1. The Wild Taiga in Finland- This historic place is home to the Taiga’s beautiful nature. Enjoy crystal blue waters, and in the winter months enjoy touring the Esker Valleys which were said to be formed during the time of the Ice Age. 2. The Wood Buffalo National Park is located in Canada and is a part of the Taiga Biome. You will see a variety

...This is my nine weeks exam essay on Biotic Relationships.The Biotic Relashionships are mutalism, commensalism, paristims, predation, and competion.My nine weeks exam essay is also going to be about abiotic,bitotic,organisms,populations,commuties,ecoysystems,and biomes. As you read along you can get to understand the Biotic Relationships. ..The Biotic Relationships are mutualism,commensalism,parasitism,predation,and competition. This paragraph is about mutualism.What is mutualism? How many host
realised the importance of protecting and managing ecosystems therefore have implemented management strategies that are supposed to prevent further detriment and as a consequence may induce resiliency. Within Minnamurra rainforest all biophysical components rely on each other, for example changes to the lithosphere (gaseous elements surrounding the earth), can cause stress to the flora and fauna within the ecosystem and impact other abiotic factors. Human interaction has also caused many detrimental
Comparison of Four Ecosystem Essay Assignment An ecosystem is the “relationship between the biotic and abiotic components. Biotic components are composed of all living things in contrast, abiotic components are composed of the non-living parts of an environment.” (Ms. Blackshaw) This essay is focused on the abiotic factors that influence an ecosystem. They are many abiotic factors affecting an ecosystem such as temperature, water, wind, sunlight, rocks, soil, and oxygen. However, the three abiotic
