COMMUNITY → ECOSYSTEM
• a group of different populations which interact in a particular area
• Ex. All of the squirrels, trees, birds, insects etc. in a forest
• All of the living & nonliving
factors in a particular area
• Ex. A forest (includes all the organisms & the soil, water etc.)

Producers (“self-feeders”)
• also known as the autotrophs
• produce their own food
• use the processes of photosynthesis or chemosynthesis

Population Impacts in a Food Population Impacts in a Food WebWeb
• If the population of organisms at any level of the food web changes, it will affect the population at other levels
![Page 26: ORGANISM → POPULATION a functioning creature Ex. One squirrel group of organisms of the same species Ex. All the wolves in a specific area.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022020208/56649e4d5503460f94b43c55/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
• If the population of producers decreases, then the population of primary consumers will decrease if they don’t have enough food.
![Page 27: ORGANISM → POPULATION a functioning creature Ex. One squirrel group of organisms of the same species Ex. All the wolves in a specific area.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022020208/56649e4d5503460f94b43c55/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
• If the population of primary consumers decreases, then…– The producers will increase because there are
less consumers eating them– The secondary consumers will decrease
because there is less food for them

Energy Transfer in Energy Energy Transfer in Energy PyramidsPyramids
• Each trophic level of the energy pyramid supplies energy to the level above it.
• Each transfer loses 90% of the energy
• Only 10% of the energy at a level is passed to the next level up!
• 90% is “lost” - used for movement, respiration, & reproduction – lost as heat (not a useable form of energy)

Niche
• A niche is the role or job of a specific organism. – Each organism has a specific niche. – Includes how the organism uses the biotic
and abiotic conditions to survive. – Includes its role in the food web– Includes when and how reproduction occurs

Competition
organisms of the same or different species attempt to use an ecological resource in the same place at the same time.
Purple Loosestrife (from Great Britain)
Invasive wetland plant that overtakes native plants that provide better nutrition/habitat for water fowl
Resources - Food, water, nutrients, sunlight, space, shelter
![Page 47: ORGANISM → POPULATION a functioning creature Ex. One squirrel group of organisms of the same species Ex. All the wolves in a specific area.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022020208/56649e4d5503460f94b43c55/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
competitive exclusion principle – No two species may occupy the same niche in the same habitat at the same time.
• one species will always use the resources more efficiently
• that species will reproduce more
• slight advantage leads to the elimination of the weaker competitor
