Biodiversity is the life giving gift of our varies, colourful, and beautiful organisms in our galaxy. Biodiversity is also refers to the variety and variability of life on Earth. In biodiversity, it is relationship between the species and the ecosystems that can measured our variety and variability that present in different ecosystems. The number of plants, animals and other organisms is known as “biodiversity”. Distributions of biodiversity occurs when the weather is in the extreme condition and the climate is favourable for the organisms to survive. The animals and plants have their own special characteristics that can make them survives even though in the …show more content…
There are many examples of ecosystems such as a pond, a forest, an estuary and a grassland. Ecosystem ecology is about the emphasize energy flow and chemical cycling between organisms and the environment. Ecosystem ecology is we can put all together because the system operates as a whole. In ecosystem ecology have the major functional aspect of the system. It is include the amount of the energy formed by photosynthesis and how the energy flow along many steps in food chain. That is to control the rate of decomposition of materials or the rate nutrients are recycled in the systems.
COMMUNITY ECOLOGY
A community is a group of populations of different species in an area. Community ecology is about the species interactions, such as predation and competition, affect community structure and organization. In community it is made up of populations of different species, or animals, plants, fungi, and bacteria, living in the same area. Community ecology is an expanding of ecology and have the species interactions in a

Earth contains many of diversity of ecosystem. Because of the geometric of the earth and earth is slightly on its axis relative to the sun and different regions of the planet. So that, the amount of sunlight energy throughout the year are totally difference when the planet receive the amount of sun. As a result, the length of the warm, cold, dry, and wet seasons in these difference regions. It is because every seasons have different temperature, humidity and other environmental factors that define the condition of the regions or country. For example in biodiversity, we have a many species of plant that depends on place and environmental factors to survive. That why, every species have their own characteristics to adapts with the
Environmental change plays an important role in evolution. When an environmental change occurs, it can be a physical or chemical change. It can also be a gradual process such as the formation of mountains, or it can be a rapid and unexpected change, such as a natural disaster. When changes in organism’s environments occur, they must adapt to their new environment, this can cause ample amounts of selective stress and pressure on organisms, causing some species to eventually die out, while other organisms strive and evolve to be better adapted to this change.
3. By the end of the clip the elements present that are present from Gardner’s traditional definition of “community” include wholeness incorporating diversity; a shared culture; caring, trust, and teamwork; group maintenance and governance; participation and shared leadership tasks; links with the outside world; and the
Biodiversity is the variety of life in the world. Biodiversity is important everywhere because it is a resource in which all living organisms and future generation organisms depend on. It is important to California because California has many different bioregions. If California did not have biodiversity in its bioregions, one animal would have to adapt to all the different regions. By adapting, it would have to live off the land and eat its own species.
The word community is explained by the Oxford Dictionary as “people of a district or country considered collectively, especially in the context of social values and responsibilities; society.” A community is determined by shared characteristics which could include location, culture, race, or beliefs. The common characteristics of a community can also dictate who belongs and who does not. Maycomb County was a community with a defined structure.
The ecosystem that I found to be the most interesting is the Daintree Rainforest. This rainforest is estimated to be 180 million years old and has a very fascinating and distinctive land. The Daintree Rainforest is a tropical rainforest that is located on the north east coast of Queensland, Australia; taking up a total of 0.1 percent of Australia’s land mass. The Daintree Rainforest is the oldest existing tropical rainforest in the world and the biggest rainforest located in Australia, it is a total of over 1,200 square kilometers in size. This forest got its famous name from a man named Richard Daintree, a 19th century Australian geologist and photographer.
Leaves change colors because of chlorophyll. 2. Animals are affected due to seasonal weather changes. Some animals migrate to warmer places while others hibernate until it is warmer. 3.
Emma Areman Professor Walker Meteorology 10 December 2017 Overview / highlights of important topics and concepts in each chapter Chapter 1- Introduction to the Atmosphere Chapter One was an introduction to the atmosphere. There are four major spheres within the earth. There is the geosphere which is beneath the atmosphere and divided into three regions. The atmosphere is a gaseous envelope.
Niches: The spot an organism fills in a community/ecosystem. Ecosystem
Most people make the assumption that a community is made up of people who live near them when really it could be made up of people from all over the world. The word “community” can mean many things to different people and everyone has their own opinion on what it means to them. To me community means a group of people who all share the same interest, likes, and who are willing to come together and help one another in times of need. That is why I strongly believe that even if you are on the opposite sides of the world from one another you could still come together and be apart of a strong healthy community. To create your own community with others even if it is through the internet is very simple and you really just have to be willing to accept
How do natural characteristics of Canada influence human activity, and how might human activity influence Canada’s natural characteristic? Canada is the second largest country in the world, its landform region has a large range from the lowlands to mountains. This characteristic make the country extremely extraordinary among other countries. However, the great natural characteristic also creates a huge impact on the way of life for Canadian. Examples of influences to human from natural characteristic can be the Canadian population distribution, economy, farming.
Through the study of Critical Issues for Torah Communities, two questions have come to my mind: How should the church body act and should we act as a Community or a Congregation? Many do not ask these questions because they do not know the difference between a community and a congregation. I did not understand the meaning of this question and how important my answer would be. So, what is the difference between a community and a congregation?
A community, a complex term that often times elicits various feelings and definitions, generally implies that there are relationships between a group of people that share some common goals, values, the same geographical location, or, perhaps a way of life that reinforces one another. In a community, members choose to associate with, or connect to each other. However, it is only when we take a step back from the activities in our life’s, do we recognize reality and witness the social interactions that occur around us every day. The overarching purpose of this assignment was to go out into the community on two separate occasions to observe the social interactions- paying close attention to evidence of social networks, excluded or exclusive communities,
The community has had an unforgettable impact on the development of cultural values, and so should not be delegated to a small area. A community is a collection of individuals who share similar cultural values and traditions and act upon those values in such a way that the collective good of all is influenced. By contrast, a neighborhood is an area that can be defined on a city map. It is a collection of individuals that live in geographic proximity and often depend upon the same resources. Of course, this disparity in definitions leads to the question of how both communities and neighborhoods go through the process of formation.
Biodiversity is all life on the planet. How much life is out there, however, is still quite unclear and by this time, possibly many new species may find out. Appraise of around a range from 2 million to 100 million species, with only about 1.4 million are named at this current time. The attainable diversity of uncharacterized species is very much frustrating, visualizes how many species are here and others are still missing or unrecognized. However, now days where globalization intercepts species have begun to dissolve at a very alarming and devastating rate.
Below are a couple of ways by which we rely on plants to survive:
