Ecology and ecosystem ii
The document discusses ecological balance and energy flow within ecosystems. It provides definitions of ecological balance as a state of dynamic equilibrium within a community that remains stable subject to gradual changes. Ecological balance can be disturbed by introduction of new species, sudden death of species, or human causes like deforestation and pollution. This disrupts the numerical balance between organisms and can lead to food shortages and increased mortality for some species. A new equilibrium is eventually reestablished. Energy enters ecosystems through solar radiation and flows unidirectionally from producers to consumers in a trophic structure depicted by ecological pyramids of number, biomass, and energy. Biogeochemical cycles also govern nutrient exchange between organisms and their environment.
Ecosystem Concepts
The document defines key concepts in ecology, including that an ecosystem is the basic functional unit of ecology, consisting of biotic and abiotic components that interact through nutrient cycles and energy flows. It provides examples of different types of ecosystems like forests, rivers, and coral reefs that can be impacted by human activities like pollution, overexploitation of resources, and destructive practices like dynamite fishing. Food chains and webs are described as the trophic structure of ecosystems that regulate energy and material transfers between species from producers to various consumer levels.

Ecology & ecosystem by pooja
Ecology is the study of the interactions between organisms and their environment. There are several key concepts in ecology, including ecosystems, which are composed of biotic and abiotic components that interact. Energy flows through ecosystems in one direction from producers to various consumer trophic levels. Food chains and webs show the feeding relationships between organisms in an ecosystem. Biogeochemical cycles allow important elements to be recycled within ecosystems. Ecological balance and disruptions to balance are also important concepts.
5 ecology and ecosystem
Ecology is the study of organisms in their natural habitats and their interactions with each other and the environment. It examines living things at different levels - the individual, the population, and the community. Ecologists seek to explain life processes, distributions, energy and material flows, ecosystem development, and biodiversity. Ecosystems consist of biotic and abiotic components that interact, and can be terrestrial (like forests and grasslands), freshwater, or marine. Human activities, population growth, resource availability, and climate influence ecosystem structure and function.

Ecology ppt
Ecology is the study of interactions among organisms and their environment. It examines different levels of biological organization, from species to biomes. Energy from the sun or inorganic compounds flows through ecosystems via photosynthesis in autotrophs and is consumed by heterotrophs in a food chain. Only about 10% of energy is transferred between trophic levels, as shown in ecological pyramids. Matter cycles through ecosystems in nutrient, carbon, water, nitrogen, and phosphorus cycles.
Population Ecology
- Ecology is the scientific study of interactions between organisms and their environment (biotic and abiotic factors)

It also describes the major biotic components - producers, consumers, and decomposers. Producers like plants capture energy through photosynthesis while consumers feed on producers or each other. Decomposers break down dead organic matter and release nutrients.
Ecosystem and its function
This document provides an introduction to ecosystems. It defines an ecosystem as all the living and non-living things interacting in a given area, with organisms depending on each other and the physical environment. Ecosystems have biotic components like plants, animals and microbes, and abiotic components like air, soil, water and nutrients. The key interactions between living and non-living factors maintain balances like the carbon and nitrogen cycles. Ecosystems can be classified by their environment, such as aquatic ecosystems including wetlands, coral reefs and mangroves, and terrestrial ecosystems like forests and grasslands.
Structure and function
This document discusses the structure and function of ecosystems. It defines an ecosystem as a community of living organisms interacting with each other and their non-living environment. An ecosystem includes biotic components like producers, consumers, and decomposers, as well as abiotic components from the lithosphere like soil, water, and weather. It then explains key ecosystem functions - productivity refers to the rate of biomass production, decomposition recycles organic matter into nutrients, energy flows through the ecosystem from producers to consumers, and nutrients cycle through the living and nonliving components of the ecosystem.

Functional Components of an Ecosystem
The biological, geochemical and physical processes and components that take place within an ecosystem are collectively called as ecological functions.
Ecology And Ecosystem Unit IV
The document discusses ecology, ecosystems, and environmental concepts. It defines ecology as the study of organisms and their environment. There are different types of ecology like autecology and synecology. An ecosystem is comprised of biotic and abiotic components that interact and exchange energy and matter. The biotic components include producers, consumers, and decomposers. The abiotic components include climatic, physical, chemical, and medium factors. Various ecosystems are described like forests, grasslands, deserts, aquatic, marine, and freshwater ecosystems. Their biotic and abiotic components and examples of organisms are provided. Environmental issues like waste management, pollution, and their impacts are also summarized.
Ecosystem structure and function
The document discusses the history and definitions of ecosystems. It notes that the term "ecosystem" was coined in 1930 but was fully defined by ecologist Arthur Tansley in 1935 as the organisms in an area interacting with the physical environment. Eugene Odum later developed the ecosystem concept and defined it as any unit with interacting organisms and physical environment leading to energy flow and material cycles. The document then discusses ecosystem components, interactions, scales, dynamics, and trophic levels before concluding with descriptions of biogeochemical cycling within ecosystems.
The structure of ecosystems
The document discusses various topics related to ecosystems and the environment. It defines an ecosystem as consisting of a biotope (non-living components) and biocenosis (living components). It describes different types of ecosystems such as terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems. It discusses biotic factors like biotic relations and trophic levels, and how energy and matter cycle through ecosystems.
Topic 2 -The Ecosystem Powerpoint
This document discusses various ecological concepts and terms:
1. It defines organism, population, community, species, habitat, trophic levels, food chains, food webs, ecological pyramids, and biomass.
2. It explains the three types of ecological pyramids - numbers, biomass, and productivity - and provides examples of each.
3. It discusses how biomass is measured and represented in a pyramid of biomass, noting that these pyramids provide information on standing stocks at each trophic level.
What factors influence ecosystems
Plants and animals depend on each other to survive in an ecosystem. They are biotic factors that interact through providing food and shelter. Animals also affect plants through behaviors like eating some plants, fertilizing soil, and burrowing. Abiotic factors like sunlight, water, soil conditions and climate also impact ecosystems by influencing what plants can grow and whether animals have resources to live. Ecosystems vary based on location and climate, with different communities in places like rainforests, deserts, deciduous forests, savannas, taigas and tundras.

Ecosystem and Ecological succession
1) An ecosystem is a self-sufficient unit comprising living organisms and their non-living environment that interact through material cycles.
2) Energy flows through ecosystems via primary producers, consumers at different trophic levels, and decomposers. Only about 1% of solar energy is stored at the producer level.
3) Nutrients like carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus and oxygen cycle between biotic and abiotic components of ecosystems through processes like photosynthesis, respiration, decomposition and nitrogen fixation.
Environmental studies
An ecosystem is defined as a system consisting of all living organisms in an area interacting with each other and the non-living components of their environment. The key components of an ecosystem include producers, consumers, and decomposers as the living or biotic components, which interact with abiotic or non-living factors like physical and chemical conditions. Ecosystems transfer energy through food chains and food webs, and can be modeled using ecological pyramids that show the biomass or numbers of organisms at different trophic levels. Ecosystems are dynamic systems that undergo succession over time towards a climax community.

Osmothermoreg activity
This document contains questions for a student about osmoregulation - the process by which aquatic organisms regulate their internal salt concentrations. It asks about nitrogenous waste products in different organisms, and the effects of freshwater vs saltwater on fish. It also asks questions about thermoregulation in humans and how water is used to cool engines and nuclear reactors. The conclusion section is blank.
Overview of excretion in mammals
The mammalian kidney filters blood in the glomerulus and regulates water and salt balance through selective reabsorption and secretion in the nephron's tubule segments. In the proximal tubule, most reabsorption occurs, while the thin ascending loop of Henle secretes salt and the thick ascending loop reabsorbs salt actively. The collecting duct determines salt excretion, reabsorbing water passively. Osmoreceptors detect blood osmolarity and volume changes, triggering antidiuretic hormone and the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system respectively to regulate water and salt balance. Through selective tubule transport, the kidney maintains homeostasis.
Integumentary activity

Immune 20132014 (1)
The immune system defends the body against pathogens through layered lines of defense. The innate immune system provides immediate nonspecific responses while the adaptive immune system mounts targeted responses through lymphocytes. B and T lymphocytes recognize pathogens through antigen receptors and mount humoral or cell-mediated responses involving antibody production or cytotoxic killing. Immune memory develops from these responses to provide faster protection upon reexposure. A balanced immune response is needed, as deficiencies or issues with self-tolerance can lead to infection or autoimmunity.

Webinar: Designing a schema for a Data Warehouse
Are you new to data warehouses (DWH)? Do you need to check whether your data warehouse follows the best practices for a good design? In both cases, this webinar is for you.
A data warehouse is a central relational database that contains all measurements about a business or an organisation. This data comes from a variety of heterogeneous data sources, which includes databases of any type that back the applications used by the company, data files exported by some applications, or APIs provided by internal or external services.
But designing a data warehouse correctly is a hard task, which requires gathering information about the business processes that need to be analysed in the first place. These processes must be translated into so-called star schemas, which means, denormalised databases where each table represents a dimension or facts.
We will discuss these topics:
- How to gather information about a business;
- Understanding dictionaries and how to identify business entities;
- Dimensions and facts;
- Setting a table granularity;
- Types of facts;
- Types of dimensions;
- Snowflakes and how to avoid them;
- Expanding existing dimensions and facts.
