Matching Pairs Systems and Models (part 3) - Review for Ecology UnitOnline version assignment by Benjamin D Morgan 1 Closed System 2 Energy Transfers 3 Model Importance 4 Actual System 5 System Interaction 6 System Function 7 Open System 8 System Importance 9 Types of models 10 How does the number of predators affect the prey population? The dependent variable is... 11 Flows within 12 Model 13 How does the number of predators affect the prey population? The controlled variable is... 14 Energy Transformations 15 How does the number of predators affect the prey population? The independent variable is... Systems effect other systems. Objects and energy will leave one system and enter another system. What a system is designed for...it's job/role 3D smaller items, computer simulations, diagrams, pictures. Representation of the actual system For tracking energy and matter flows so that we can better understand the concept The system or object under study. Not a representation To help us understand systems better by allowing us to study it, perform experiments, etc on a smaller version of the system When matter cannot enter or leave a system, but energy can enter/leave Prey population Predator population Autotroph population When energy moves from one system (object) to another system (object) When matter or energy moves inside of a system Energy can change from one type of energy to another type of energy when it interacts with a system When matter can enter and leave a system.
