mutualism
commensalism
parasitism

Question 3

mutualism

Answer 3

+,+

Question 4

commensalism

+,-

Question 6

intraspecific competition

Answer 6

within 1 species

Question 7

interspecific competition

Answer 7

between diff species

Question 8

mimicry

Answer 8

similarity of one species to another that can benefit both

Question 9

batesian mimicry

Answer 9

example: non venomous snake looks like a venomous one

Question 10

mullerian mimicry

Answer 10

example: two venomous stuff look like each other

Question 11

endangered species

Answer 11

in danger of extinction

Question 12

habitat vs niche

Answer 12

niche= behavior/ trophic levels/where organism belongs in the ecosystem
habitat= where it lives

Question 13

niche partitioning

Answer 13

2 competing species utilize diff resources to avoid competition. (so their not in the same niche)

Question 14

ecological equivalents

Answer 14

species that occupy the same niches but not in the same region so they don’t have to compete

Question 15

predation

Answer 15

where 1 organism captures/ kills/ eats another

Question 16

prey includes

Answer 16

plants

Question 17

succession

Answer 17

the sequence of biotic changes that regenerate a caged community or create a community in a previously uninhabited area

Question 18

primary succession

Answer 18

est. and development of an area that was previously uninhabited
not even soil
just barren rock

Question 19

pioneer species

Answer 19

the first species to inhabit in succession

Question 20

secondary succession

Answer 20

reestablishment of a damaged area where soil was left intact

Question 21

exponential growth

Answer 21

pop increase rapidly

with abundant resources

Question 22

logistic growth

Answer 22

pop increase slowly once carrying capacity is reached

limited resouces

Question 23

survivorship curves

Answer 23

show how many organisms are still alive as the pop ages

Question 24

type 1 survuvorship surve

Answer 24

late loss curve
large animsld with parental care

live to old age
exponenetial increase

Question 25

type 2 survivorship curve

Answer 25

constant loss
smaller animals
in eny point of their life, they can die

linear decrease

Question 26

type 3 survivorship curve

Answer 26

early loss
insects and fish and amphibians
havve a lot of babies that don’t survive. but if they do, they live for longer.

Question 27

r reproductive strategy

Answer 27

small animals
no parental care
lots of kids
mature early
short life
reproduce once
survivorship curve 3

Question 28

K reproductive strategy

Answer 28

larger animals 
not a lot of offspring but with parent care
late mature
long life expectancy
reproduces more than once in life time
survivorship curve 1+2

4 characteristics of pop groeth

Answer 29

immigration
emigration
death rate
birth rate

Question 30

pop crash

Answer 30

sudden death of a lot of organisms in a pop

Question 31

Competitive exclusion

Answer 31

No 2 species can occupy the same niche at the same time
