Population Changes, Abiotic/Biotic, Predator Prey, and Biomes

Front

What is a biotic factor in an ecosystem?

Back

A biotic factor is a living component of an ecosystem, such as plants, animals, and bacteria.

Front

What are abiotic factors?

Back

Abiotic factors are non-living components of an ecosystem, including sunlight, temperature, water, and soil.

Front

How do abiotic factors influence biotic factors?

Back

Abiotic factors like temperature and rainfall affect the growth and survival of biotic factors, such as plants and animals.

Front

What is the role of predators in an ecosystem?

Back

Predators help control the population of prey species, maintaining balance in the ecosystem.

Front

What is a biome?

Back

A biome is a large geographical area characterized by specific climate conditions, plants, and animals.

Front

Give an example of a biome.

Back

The rainforest is an example of a biome known for its high biodiversity and dense vegetation.

Front

What can cause an increase in a population of organisms?

Back

Factors such as an increase in habitat, food availability, and a decrease in predators can lead to population growth.

Front

What is the relationship between predator and prey?

Back

The predator-prey relationship is a biological interaction where one organism (the predator) hunts and consumes another (the prey).

Front

What are some examples of biotic factors?

Back

Examples of biotic factors include plants, animals, bacteria, and fungi.

Front

What is the impact of habitat loss on populations?

Back

Habitat loss can lead to a decrease in population sizes as organisms lose their living space and resources.
