Niche & Habitat ECOLOGICAL NICHE~ the sum total of an organism’s
use of biotic and abiotic resources in its environment; its “ecological role”
Chthamalus sp.
Semibalanus sp.
Habitat- is an area
where an organism
lives.
AP Biology
Interspecific interactions Community interactions
parasitism (-/+) commensalism (+/0)
barnacles attached to whale
mutualism (+/+) Water buffalo and Egret
AP Biology
Parasitism In a parasitic relationship, one
organism benefits (parasite) while the other organism is harmed (host)
Examples-fleas, ticks, tapeworm, mosquito
AP Biology
Commensalism In commensalism, one organism
benefits, while the other is not affected Examples – spanish moss growing on
trees, or barnacles growing on whales commensalism example
AP Biology
Mutualism In a mutualistic relationship, BOTH
organisms benefit Examples – lichen (algae and fungus),
pollinators (insects, bats, birds, etc) Mutualism video
AP Biology
Symbiotic Interactions Symbiosis is a close ecological relationship
between the individuals of two (or more) different species.Types of Symbiosis
Description
Commensalism Relationship in which one organism benefits, but the other in neither helped nor harmed
Parasitism Relationship in which one organism benefits and the other is harmed in some way
Mutualism Relationship in which both organisms benefit

RECAP!! I will give you three separate
answers and you must give me a QUESTION that fits the answer.• A close ecological relationship between the individuals of two (or more) different species.
•A mosquito biting into a human’s arm
•Relationship in which one organism benefits, but the other is neither helped nor harmed
