plants need;
light
,
space
,
water
,
mineral ions
animals need;
space
,
food
,
water
and
mates
what are stable communities?
where all the
species
and
environmental
factors are in
balance
so that the
population
sizes are roughly
constant
structural adaptations:
features
of an organism's
body structure
behavioral adaptations
: the ways organisms behave
functional adaptations
: the things that go.
inside
an
organism's body
that can
relate
to
processes
like
reproduction
and
metabolism
some microorganisms are known as
extremophiles
, they are
adapted
to live in very
extreme conditions
abiotic factors are
non-living
factors
biotic
factors are
living
factors
consumers
that
hunt
and
kill
other
animals
are called
predators
what are the environmental changes that affect the distribution of organisms?
availability of
water
,
temperature
,
atmospheric gases
label the diagram:
A)
precipitation
B)
clouds
C)
condensation
D)
evaporation
E)
transpiration
F)
infiltration

elements are cycled back to the
start
of the food chain by
decay
compost is
decomposed organic matter
that is used as a
natural fertiliser
the rate of decay is affected by what factors?
temperature
,
oxygen availability
,
water availability
,
number of decay organisms
biogas is made by
anaerobic decay
of
waste material
biogas
is mainly made up of
methane
, which can be
burned
as a
fuel
biogas is made in a simple
fermenter
called a
digester
or
generator
biogas generators need to be kept at a
constant
temperature to keep the microorganisms
respiring
