Introduction to Ecology

Learn about the biosphere, ecosystems, communities, populations, organisms, habitats, niches, generalists, specialists, biotic and abiotic factors in this video!

If anyone is doing this for school these are the definitions in the video

Ecology: The study of organisms' relationship to other organisms and the physical environment.

Interdependence: Interdependence is the idea that in order to survive a species needs other
living organisms and nonliving things.

Biosphere: The “thin veil” over the Earth. All living organisms(on earth) live in the biosphere.

Ecosystem: All the organisms and nonliving environments found in a certain place.

Community: All the interacting organisms in an area(or ecosystem).

Population: All of the organisms of one type of species in a certain area.

Individual / Organism: An individual living thing.

Habitat: The place where an organism lives.

Biotic: Biotic factors are the living part of a habitat.
examples: Grass, algae, fish, birds, and insects.

Abiotic: Abiotic factors are the nonliving parts of a habitat.
examples: Water, rocks, soil, sunlight, and temperature.

Niche: The niche is the job or role of an organism in its environment.

Generalist: Generalists eat a variety of foods.


Specialist: Specialists eat very little one type of food.

Organism - An animal
Habitat - A place where an organism lives
Niche - The role of the organism within its environment
Biotic - Living organisms of a habitat

Am I the only one who came here because of school?

[lukas.caldwell]

I watched this in science class yesterday hi mr pimprel

[celestechavez]

That moment when you have a test tomorro, and since you have no notes you end up looking at this video 😧😂

Now this is awesome, even as an adult I learned a lot from this.
I am an organic gardener and use organism to create a quality compost, using compost worms to finalise the process.
Thanks

Great video. My Year 11 Outdoor and Environmental Studies class just watched this video and gained a greater understanding of our theory work. Thanks you so much! From Mr Ty Cover.

My incompetent teacher didn't have enough time to teach us this so here I am teaching myself.

[phantasmaleye]

I am an ecosystem, community, organism and habitat... wow I'm so important

[raykhan]

am I the only one who came here just because I find the ecosystem and environment interesting? or the fact that I have only one year left before having to choose a major in highschool to prep for uni so im kind of exploring all types of things that intrigue me? lolol

[jodihess]

lol we all hated school, but now we want to go back to friends >:3





its like the carona wants us to feel sad and lonely because your not the favorite child, my doggo is :3
