Key Concepts

Species

A species is a group of organisms that share similar characteristics and are capable of interbreeding to produce fertile offspring. This definition underscores the criteria for reproductive compatibility and genetic similarity essential for defining a species.

Population

A population consists of individuals of the same species that live in the same area and interact with one another. This concept highlights the genetic and demographic characteristics of species over time within a specified area.

Ecosystem

An ecosystem includes the community of living organisms (biotic factors) and the non-living components (abiotic factors) of their environment, interacting together as a system. It emphasizes the flow of energy and nutrients through both living and non-living parts.

Biotic factors

Biotic factors encompass all living components in an ecosystem, including plants, animals, fungi, bacteria, and protists, which interact with each other and help shape the community through various relationships like predation, competition, and symbiosis.

Abiotic factors

Abiotic factors refer to the non-living physical and chemical components of an environment, such as temperature, wind, water, and minerals, which influence living organisms and the ecosystem’s structure and functioning.

Community

A community is a group of interacting populations of different species that live together in a particular area. It focuses on the relationships and dynamics between species rather than the physical environment.
