BIOTIC & ABIOTIC FACTORS BETWEEN TERRESTRIAL AND AQUATIC ECOSYSTEM…

- - - - High exposition of light
      - for photosynthesis process
    - - Average rain falls from 2000m to 4000 m yearly
    - - Poor in nutrients
      - Definition: The acidity or alkalinity of the soil affects the biological activities and minerals contain.
      - For example, there is some plants that are actively grow in alkaline state or acidity state.
    - - Clay particles on land surface
      - Definition: Factors that are related with the physical nature of the area. For example , altitude.
    - - Higher than 34 degree celcius or <20 degree celcius
    - - Carbon Dioxide: Required by green plants for photosynthesis.
      - Nitrogen: Used up by certain bacteria and through action of lightning.
      - Oxygen: Required by living organisms for respiration.
    - - Carry water vapor may undergo condensation and fall in the form rain
      - Help dispersal pollen grains of some plants and also dispersal insects
  - - - known as autotroph
      - green plants that produced organic compounds through photosynthesis process
    - - eg: Goat, cowand zebra
    - - eg: Leapards and lions
    - - type of consumer
      - eg: ticks and flies
      - gets food from the host
    - - eg: Mushroom and bacteria
- - - - Ocean organisms need specific temperature to grow, survive and reproduce
      - Affect the migration of ocean's organisms, how they find food, where they can be found
      - When temperature increase, organism may not be able to adapt
    - - Ocean organisms live in specific salinity levels
      - Often affect water density; saltier water, more dense
      - The measure of salts in seawater
    - - Penetration decreases as depth increases
      - For the process of photosynthesis
    - - Dissolved substance that influence growth of the organisms
      - eg: nitrogen, phosphorus, carbon, iron
    - - reacts with other elements and produced molecules that is vital for life
      - crucial for respiration, photosynthesis process, chemical process, metabolism
      - produced by algae and phytoplankton during photosynthesis
    - - material that can be found at the bottom of the ocean
      - eg: hard rock, soft sediments (sand, clay), coral reef
  - - - Compete with one another to obtain resources such as food and shelter in order to survive
      - Two types:
        
        Intraspecific competition
        
        Competition between the same species
        
        Interference competition
        
        Competition between two different species
    - - eg: seaweed
    - - coral reef provide home/protection for organisms
      - can be classified as hard, flexible or soft
      - made up of tiny animals known as polyps
    - - The living organism in the ocean
      - eg: fish, shrimp, shark
