We have studied all aspects of ecology. We have explored populations and their interactions. Our knowledge of ecology has evolved from our experiences in our quadrat study. We will conclude our lesson with a class discussion where you will have an opportunity to share your evaluation of your study area. The size of a population shows something about its success as a species in that location.
Ecological relationships are the ways that things in an environment interact with each other.
If the earth s axis were perpendicular to the plane of the earth s orbit, any location on earth would always have the same angle of elevation of the sun, and our four seasons would have more extreme temperatures. Every population affects and is affected by other populations and by the physical environment in which they live. To find out how many organisms of each kind live in an area, always count them one by one. Write the appropriate letter in the blank to match the following.
