Transcript of Community structure and dynamics
- 1.Community Structure and Dynamics
2. Trophicstructure
- Feeding () relationship between organisms.
- >Biomass: Primary producers
3. Food web
- Mention the organisms in each trophic level. Explain.
- Primary Producers.
- Primary Consumers.
- Secondary Consumers.
- Tertiary Consumers.
- Quaternary Consumers .
4. Bottom-up and Top down regulation model
- V= vegetationH= herbivore
- VH
- VH
- VH
Explain each possible interaction with your own words. 5. Bottom up model
- N = mineral nutrients.
- P = predators
- NVHP
Top down model
- N = mineral nutrients.
- P = predators
- NVHP
Find out 2 similarities and 2 differences between the two models. 6. Ecological Succession
- The sequence of community changes after a disturbance.
7. Primary Succession 8. Secondary Succession 9.
- Mention two differences and two similarities between primary and secondary succession.
- Describe the relationship between nitrogen in soil and mineral nitrogen (50 w).
10. Humans bottom up or top down control
- Introduction (50w)
- Bottom up support (50w)
- Top down support (50w)
- Conclusion (50w)
