Make sure you have labelled the appropriate parts with the terms abiotic and biotic‚ and you have included at least four examples of each. You will hand this graphic organizer in with your section assignment. (2 marks) B. Choose one abiotic factor from your list. Imagine what would happen if you changed that one abiotic factor.

The Ecosystem - Deserts An Ecosystem is a biodiversity community where biotic and abiotic elements inhabit the same environment. There are many types of ecosystems located throughout the world and one of which is known as the Gobi desert. The Gobi is a large desert region that scales from 500‚000 square miles and spans across two countries (China and southern Mongolia) covering parts of northern and northwestern China. Like all deserts‚ the Gobi desert is a cold biome desert that consists

Mutualism of a Bengal Tiger- A very powerful antibiotic‚ Bacilli is a type of bacteria belonging to the Enterobacteriaceae family. Specifically‚ Pantoea agglomerans of the bacilli family are helpful by producing a broad spectrum antibiotic andrimid. This kills many harmful bacteria that a tiger may ingest from its prey by blocking a critical step in fatty acid biosynthesis. This helps protect the tiger from such dangers like E. coli and samonella poisoning. Parasitism-An example of parasitism is

Did you know that literally anything can change or affect an ecosystem. All kinds of relationships affect an ecosystem. An Ecosystem is a biological community of interacting organisms and their physical environment. Changes to an ecosystem can literally change and affect everything in it. Things outside of an ecosystem can affect an ecosystem. Everything connects together. Living and nonliving changes to an ecosystem can change and affect everything in it. It affects it in positive and negative ways

top of the food chain back to the bottom. There are many symbiotic relationships in biological systems. There is mutualism which means both sides benefit from the interaction. An example of this is a bird picking an alligator’s teeth clean. The bird benefits with a meal and the alligator gets a healthy mouth. In this case‚ the alligator’s mouth also serves as resource. Commensalism is when one species benefits and the other sees no effect. An example of this is fish picking up the left overs after
