Ecology generally believed to have been coined by German Naturalist ________

oikos means _______

logos means _______

branch of biology that deals with the relations of organisms to one another and to their environment

5 physical factors of environment (w____, a______, s______, l_______, t_______)

natural agent that stimulates sight and make things visible

essential to all plants in photosynthesis

animals with undeveloped eyes that live in underground stream and rivers.

animals that live in depth to which light cannot pentrate

can live without sunlight and die when exposed to light

degree or intensity of heat in a substance or objects.

2 types of animals according to their temperature

whose body temp. varies w/ the temp. of the environment

cold-blooded

fishes, amphibians, and reptiles are example of?

whose body temp. remains more/less constant regardless to the temp. of the environment

warm-blooded

birds and mammals are examples of?

colorless, transparent, odorless, tasteless liquid that forms the seas, rivers, and rain. It is a basis of fluids of living organisms.

plants that may live completely submerged or partially submerged in water

plants that are found in neither wet nor dry environment

plants that are found in an almost waterless environment

describes the movement of water throughout Earth's surface, atmosphere, and underground.

movement of water from earth to atmosphere

moisture from plant leaves that is released to the atmosphere

process by which water vapor in the air is changed into liquid water

respinsible for the formationof clouds

movement of water from the atmosphere to the earth in the form of rain

a mixture of minerals, organic matter, gases, liquids, and countless organisms that together support life on earth.

is a layer of gases, known as air, that surrounds the planet earth and is retained by Earth's gravity

how many are in types of ecology?

study of relationship between physiology of organisms with their adaption to their environmental conditions

sub-field ecology that deals with the dynamics of species populations interact with the environment

study concerned with the interaction between species within ecological community

ecological science that deals with the flow of energy through biotic and abiotic components

studies the complex intearctions between plants and animals

plant ecophysiology is concerned with 2 topics, what are those?

how plants sense the response to environmental change

how the responses to highly variable conditions are coordinated with one another.

have major influences on human physiology

maintaining the steady state inside the body.

2 main types of stresses

results from a combination of internal body heat production from doing work and external heat exposure from environment

results from being exposed to extreme cold and working in cold environment

all individuals of a species

populations in which individuals are distributed in habitat of two or more populations

a group of conspecific individuals that is demographically, genetically, or partially disjunct from other groups of individuals.

group of individuals more genetically similar to each other than to other individuals

group of individuals with an investigator, delimited area smaller than the geographic range of the species and often within a population

arbitrary sparially delimited subset of individuals from within a population. to examine research gender

a spatially clustered group of individuals

is the branch of ecology that studies the growth and regulation of animal and plant population resulting to birth, death, emigration, and emmigration

leaves its home/animal find it not ideal to live in

establishes a home/animal find it ideal for them to live

particular group of things or people that belonged together or some shared qualities

all organisms that inhabit a particular area, an assemblage of populations of different species living together for potential interaction.

relations between species of community

occurs when species competefor a particular resource

one organisms captures and feeds on another organisms

any relationship in ehich two species live closely together

bothe soecies benefits

one member of the association benefits and other is neither helped nor harmed.

one organism live on or inside another organism and harms it

what are the biotic components in ecosystem ecology?

what are the abiotic components in ecosystem ecology?
