responds, grows, and develops
Organisms compete for food, water,
shelter, and mates

• Examples: roaches, mosquitos, ants

• Population dispersal: how they are distributed
• Population density: the # of individuals in a given area

• Niche is the role the organism plays in the community

with each other in a
given area and with
the abiotic
components of that
area.

• Abiotic factors- the nonliving parts
of an organism’s environment Examples: air currents, temperature,
moisture, light, and soil.
