Ecosystems (Part 2) Notes

Food Chain
• Food Chain: Shows the pathway of energy as one organism eats another.
• The arrow shows the direction in which the energy is traveling.

Food Web• Food Web: A
diagram that shows the feeding relationships between organisms in an ecosystem.
• The arrow still shows the direction in which energy is moving

Food Chain vs. Food Web
• Food webs are more realistic than food chains because most organisms eat more than one kind of food to survive.

Relationships in Food Webs
• If the predator population increases, the prey population(s) may decrease.
• If the prey population increases, the predator population(s) may increase.
• If the population of plant eaters increases, the population of plants may decrease.

Relationships in Food Webs

Relationships Between Populations
• Organisms interact with one another in a variety of ways.

Competition
• Populations of similar organisms have similar needs– They compete directly for
resources (food, water, shelter, etc.)• Ex: Two populations of
squirrels compete more directly for resources than a population of squirrels and rabbits.

Symbiosis
• Symbiosis describes types of relationships and interactions between species.
–Mutualism (+/+)– Commensalism (+/0)– Parasitism (+/-)

Mutualism (+/+)• Two organisms live together and
interact and both benefit from thisEx: Lichen is an organism that comes from algae and fungi having a mutualistic relationship. Algae lives in the fungi. Algae has somewhere safe to live. Fungi is protected from drying out.
• Algae benefits (+)• Fungi benefits (+)

Commensalism (+/0)
• Two organisms live together and interact and one benefits while the other is unaffected.
Ex: Cattle egrets (birds) eat organisms that livestock stir up in the ground when they walk.
• Cattle egret (bird) benefits (+)• Livestock is unaffected (0)

Parasitism (+/7)
• Two organisms live together and interact and one benefits from living on or within its host while the other is harmed.
• The host is not always killed.
Ex: A flea lives on a dog. The flea feeds on blood from the dog.
• Flea benefits (+)• Dog is harmed (itching) (-)

Mutually Beneficial Relationships
• Two populations may develop a mutually beneficial relationship.– This means that both organisms benefit
(+/+)
• This can lead to the organisms depending on one another to survive (interdependency).

Mutually Beneficial Relationships
• Example:– Flowers of a particular plant
population may come to depend on bees to pollinate their plant, while the bees depend on the flower population for the pollen.
– These organisms are interdependent upon one another • They need one another to
survive.
