Biophysical Ecology and Pattern Recognition Abstract: This study was undertaken to investigate behavioral adaptations of a lizard‚ Lacertilia‚ to its environment. Twelve peeps‚ representing the lizards‚ were placed in a habitat with two microhabitats of different temperatures. Six peeps were placed in one microhabitat‚ and six in the other. The internal temperature of these “lizards” was measured over a period of 20 minutes to see if their body temperatures matched that of their environment and

Ecosystems – Grassland vs. Mountains Every single day‚ we breathe in air and take a look at the green grass‚ we taste the blue water‚ we subconsciously analyze the soil‚ feel grey rocks‚ look down on small insects‚ watch the growing trees‚ the flying birds‚ and even ourselves‚ the people. But all of these elements do not exist just to be there‚ they have a further important meaning interacting with organisms. We are talking about a biological community of interacting organisms and their physical

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
