Adaptation, Interdependence and Competition - Coggle Diagram

- - - - each species depends on other species for things like food, shelter, pollination, seed disperal
        
        plants produce food by photosynthesis
        
        animals eat plants
        
        animals pollinate plants
        
        animals eat other animals
        
        animals use plant and animal materials to build nests and shelters
        
        plants need the nutrients from animal droppings and decay
  - - - a mature oak tree is a small, stable community - over 1,000 species can be dependent on one tree
- - - - nettles growing in the shade of other bushes have leaves with a bigger surface area than nettles in the open
  - - - low Arctic temperatures means plants are small - decreases the numbers of herbivores and so the number of carnivores
  - - - carnivorous plants thrive where nitrate levels are are low because they can trap and difest animal prey
      - most other plants struggle to grow in areas with low levels of mineral ions
    - - therefore affects the release of mineral ions back into the soil
      - a low (acidic) pH inhibits decay
  - - - mosquitoes are attracted ti their food animals by high carbon dioxide levels
