All the biotic factors (plants, animals, insects, bacteria, etc.) 2. All the abiotic factors (rivers, lakes, streams, air) 3. Area of the planet A biological community of interacting organisms and their physical environment. Scientific explanation for what is occurring. How is the amount of life in an ecosystem effected by the number of hours of daylight it receives. Identify the INDEPENDENT VARIABLE. Any living part of the environment with which an organism might interact sunlight, temperature, precipitation/water, soil How is the amount of life in an ecosystem effected by the number of hours of daylight it receives. Identify the DEPENDENT VARIABLE. The non-living parts of an organism's habitat. Plants, animals, insects, reptiles A system in which no matter is allowed to enter or leave. Energy CAN enter/leave Comes from observations or data collected during an experiment Where energy for an ecosystem comes from What is allowed to enter/leave both an open system and closed system The study of how living things interact with each other and their environment System that allows matter in/out. Energy can enter/leave too Explanation of what your evidence from an experiment means. How is the amount of life in an ecosystem effected by the number of hours of daylight it receives. Identify a CONTROLLED VARIABLE.
