ECOLOGY
Ecology is the scientific discipline in which the relationships among living organisms and the interaction the organisms have with their environments are studied

MILESTONES IN ECOLOGY
1872 Yellowstone becomes the 1st National Park in the U.S.
1987 The U.S. and other countries sign the Montreal Protocol in agreement to phase out the use of chemical compounds that deplete the ozone layer (CFC)

BIOSPHERE
The biosphere is the portion of Earth that supports life.
This is where ecologists study organisms and their environment

BIOTIC FACTORS
Biotic factors are the living factors in an organism’s environment
Biotic factors include all of the organisms that live in the water, land and microscopic organisms

ABIOTIC FACTORS
These are nonliving factors in an organism’s environment
This factors include: temperature, air, water currents, sunlight, soil type, rainfall, or available nutrients

LEVELS OF ORGANIZATION
The biosphere is too large and complex for most ecological studies. Therefore the biosphere is split into different levels.
These levels increase in complexity as the numbers and interactions between organisms increase

COMMUNITY INTERACTIONS
Competition occurs when more than one organism uses a resource at the same time
Predation is the act of one organism consuming another organism for food

SYMBIOTIC RELATIONSHIPS
Symbiosis is the close relationship that exists when two or more species live together
![Page 13: Chapter 2 E COLOGY. Ecology is the scientific discipline in which the relationships among living organisms and the interaction the organisms have with.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062422/56649f355503460f94c532ba/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
MUTUALISM
Mutualism is when two or more organisms benefit from each other Ex: One example is the relationship between sea
anemones and clown fish: the anemones provide the fish with protection from predators and the fish defends the anemones against butterfly fish which eat anemones.

COMMENSALISM
Commensalism is a relationship in which one organism benefits and the other organisms in neither helped nor harmed
![Page 15: Chapter 2 E COLOGY. Ecology is the scientific discipline in which the relationships among living organisms and the interaction the organisms have with.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062422/56649f355503460f94c532ba/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
PARASITISM
Parasitism is a relationship in which one organism benefits at the expense of another organism Ex: ticks on an animal or bacteria or worms inside
the animal
![Page 16: Chapter 2 E COLOGY. Ecology is the scientific discipline in which the relationships among living organisms and the interaction the organisms have with.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062422/56649f355503460f94c532ba/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Mutualism -- both species benefit
Commensalism -- one species benefits, the other is unaffected
Parasitism -- one species benefits, the other is harmed
Competition -- neither species benefits
Neutralism -- both species are unaffected

YOUR TURN!
Think of two different relationships between organisms you have heard of or seen
Describe both relationships and determine which category they fall into: mutualism, commensalism, or parasitism
