Aquatic Ecosystem – Definition, Types. Examples

What is the Aquatic Ecosystem? In contrast to terrestrial ecosystems, which are established on land, an aquatic environment is one that forms around a body of water. Aquatic ecosystems feature populations of creatures that are mutually and environmentally reliant. Marine and freshwater ecosystems are the two primary types of aquatic ecosystems. Freshwater environments can be

Terrestrial Ecosystem – Definition, Types, Examples

Definition of Terrestrial Ecosystem An ecosystem is a collection of interconnected groups of both living and nonliving organisms. Terrestrial ecosystems are those that can only be found on land, despite the fact that many ecosystems exist both on land and in the world’s oceans. The biotic, or live organisms, of an ecosystem consist of numerous

Decomposers – Definition, Mechanisms, Types, Example

What are Decomposers? Decomposers are the creatures that carry out the process of decay or breakdown of a dead organism, while decomposition is the process of breaking down complex organic matter into its simpler form. In environmental science and ecology, decomposers are the organisms involved in the decomposition of animal and plant debris in an

Consumers – Definition, Types, Examples

What is Consumer? Consumer is a category that belongs inside an ecosystem’s food chain. It primarily refers to animals. Consumers cannot generate their own energy and must rely on the intake and digestion of producers, other consumers, or both in order to survive. In food chains, consumers are found alongside two additional groups: producers and

Producers – Definition, Types, Examples

What is a Producer? Producers are creatures capable of synthesising basic carbohydrates like glucose from carbon dioxide gas. The creation of organic compounds from inorganic carbon sources is referred to as primary production. This mechanism can obtain its energy from solar radiation, chemical processes, or geothermal vents in the deep ocean. Most producers on land

Predation – Definition, Types, Examples

What is Predation? – Predation Definition Predation is the interaction between a prey and a predator in which energy is transferred from one creature to the other. Predator is the organism that preys on other organisms, also known as prey. Predation occurs when a predator creature consumes one or more prey organisms. The predator always

Commensalism – Definition, Types, Example

What is Commensalism? Along with mutualism, the term was coined in 1876 by Belgian palaeontologist and naturalist Pierre-Joseph van Beneden. Beneden first used the term to describe the behaviour of carrion-eating animals that followed predators in order to consume their leftover meal. The term commensalism is derived from the Latin word commensalis, which meaning “table

Mutualism – Definition, Types, Examples

What is Mutualism? Mutualism is simply a partnership between two animals that benefits both. This link may exist either inside the species or between species. The organisms involved in this connection are known as symbionts. All living species, including humans, animals, birds, plants, and microbes such as bacteria, viruses, and fungi, exhibit interdependence. Mutualism resembles

Amensalism – Definition, Types, Examples

What is Amensalism (Antagonism)? Amensalism is a sort of biological interaction in which one species harms another without incurring any costs or gaining any advantages. It is a form of interaction or competitive behaviour between organisms. Haskell coined the term amensalism to describe a relationship in which one organism harms another without incurring any costs

Parasitism – Definition, Types, Examples

What is Parasitism? Parasitism is described as a connection between two species in which one organism lives on or in the other and benefits by causing harm. The word parasite comes from the Latin form of the Greek word, which means “one who feeds at another’s table.” Generally speaking, parasitism is a connection between two

What is Symbiosis? The word symbiosis derives from the Greek, symbsis, which translates to “living together” from v, sn, which means “together” and, bsis, which means “living.” Symbiosis refers to any type of close and long-term biological interaction between two different biological organisms, whether mutualistic, commensalist, or parasitic. The symbionts, or organisms, must be of

Competition Interaction – Definition and Types with Examples

What is Competition Interaction? Competition is defined as an interaction between two or more individuals of the same population or between two or more populations in which each adversely affects the other’s access to limited resource(s) (food, water, nesting sites, shelter, mates, etc.). Mutualism is defined as a population interaction that benefits both parties. Competition

Interactions In communities – Types, Definition, Examples

A biological interaction in ecology is the influence that two creatures living in the same community have on each other. They can be of the same species (intraspecific interactions) or of other species (interspecific interactions) (interspecific interactions). Both short-term and long-term effects, such as pollination and predation, frequently have a substantial impact on the evolution
