abiotic components - ANSair, water, and non-living parts of soil


age-specific fecundity - ANSthe average number of female offspring produced by a female in a
given age-class


altruism - ANSbehavior that has a fitness cost to the individual exhibiting it and a fitness benefit
to the recipient, appears to contradict this pattern (queen bees giving themselves up for the

(Look dangerous but aren't dangerous)

environments


biomes - ANSmajor groupings of plant and animal communities defined by a dominant
vegetation type


boreal forest (taiga) - ANSforms on subarctic lands, dominated by highly cold-tolerant conifers;
productivity is low, above-ground biomass is high because slow-growing tree species may be
long-lived and become big


character displacement - ANSevolutionary change that occurs in species trait and enables
species to exploit different resources

,circadian clock - ANSmaintains a 24-hour rhythm of chemical activity-animals use sun for
direction


climate - ANSthe prevailing, long-term weather conditions found in an area

or waste products


density independent - ANSdoes not depend on the number individuals in the population


Detritus - ANSThe waste products or dead remains of the other organisms


early successional communities - ANSdominated by species that : are short lived, small in
stature and disperse their seeds over long distances


ecology; what is it's purpose? - ANS-study of how organisms interact with their environment
-to understand the distribution and abundance of organisms


ecosystem - ANSconsists of all organisms in a particular region, along with non-living
components


Ecosystem - ANSmultiple communites of organisms that live in an area along with abiotic
components


emigration - ANSoccurs when individuals leave a population to join another population


eusoiaity - ANSsometimes altruistic behavior is involuntary; in bee population, workers sacrifice
most/all of their direct reproduction to help rear the queen's offspring


experiments - ANSdesigned to simulate changed climate conditions and to record responses by
the organisms present


Facilitation - ANSoccurs when early arriving species make conditions favorable for the arrival of
later species


fixed action patterns (FAP's) - ANShighly inflexible stereotypical behavior patterns
