Introduction Ecosystem is similar to a community. It consists of species‚ living organisms and the abiotic factors‚ their habitat. Living organisms includes animals‚ plants‚ insects‚ micro-organisms. For their habitat‚ they are the non-living nature which are soil‚ sunlight‚ water‚ precipitation. There are two types of ecosystem. Terrestrial ecosystem which is on the land and aquatic ecosystem which is under the water. Over-breeding is the increase of offspring of a species to a excessive number

An ecosystem is a community of living organisms (plants‚ animals and microbes) in conjunction with the nonliving components of their environment (things like air‚ water and mineral soil)‚ interacting as a system. These components are regarded as linked together through nutrient cycles and energy flows. As ecosystems are defined by the network of interactions among organisms‚ and between organisms and their environment‚ they can come in any size but usually encompass specific‚ limited spaces (although

Experiment 4.5 Measuring the energy content of a “Dorito” and Popcorn. Using the method as described on page 46 of the textbook‚ measure the energy content of a Dorito and a “Popped” corn kernel. Aim: 1. Compare your results of each food and determine which will give the greatest energy per gram. 2. How much of each food would you need to boil 250mL of water? Hypothesis: (Before you begin‚ what do you think will be the conclusion.) As the Dorito is heated‚ it will release much more heat

Energy in food lab report Aim: How much energy there is in food. Hypothesis: If I work out how much the water temperature has risen by burning food underneath water‚ the mass of the water and the mass of food I can work out how much energy was in the food. Introduction: This experiment is about how much energy there is in food. There are a few different types of energy‚ the one we are looking at is chemical energy. Some other types of energy are: thermal energy which is heat‚ magnetic energy which
