Q

Feed on dead or decaying organisms

A

SCAVENGERS

17
Q

It is a role that are heterotropes that recycle small, often microscopic bits of dead organic matter into inorganic nutrients available for plants to take up from the soil.

A

DECOMPOSERS

18
Q

These are the different feeding levels of organisms in an ecosystem

A

TROPHIC LEVELS

19
Q

The total amount of organic matter present in a trophic level

A

BIOMASS

20
Q

When all of the energy losses are added together, only about 10% of the energy entering one trophic level forms biomass in the next trophic level.

A

10 PERSENT LAW

21
Q

It can show energy, biomass, or the number of organisms in a food web.

A

ECOLOGICAL PYRAMID

22
Q

It is a series of organisms that transfer food between the trophic levels of an ecosystem using only one species at each level…a simple chain

A

FOOD CHAIN

23
Q

show the network of food chains representing the feeding relationships among organisms in an ecosystem.

A

FOOD WEBS

24
Q

One organism (predator) will actively hunt and consume another (prey)

A

PREDATION

25
Q

organisms of same or different species compete to use the same limited resources or basic needs

A

COMPETITION

26
Q

an organism (parasite) lives in or on another (host) and feeds on it without immediately killing it

A

PARASITISM

27
Q

a cooperative partnership between two
species (both benefit)

A

MUTUALISM

28
Q

a relationship where one species benefits and
the other remains unaffected

A

COMMENSALISM
