• carrying capacity

Page 8: Chapter Menu Chapter Introduction Lesson 1Lesson 1Populations Lesson 2Lesson 2Changing Populations Lesson 3Lesson 3Communities Chapter Wrap-Up

The parts of Earth and the surrounding atmosphere where there is life is called the Earth’s biosphere.

The Biosphere and Ecological Systems

Page 9: Chapter Menu Chapter Introduction Lesson 1Lesson 1Populations Lesson 2Lesson 2Changing Populations Lesson 3Lesson 3Communities Chapter Wrap-Up

• The biosphere includes all the land of the continents and islands, all of the earth’s oceans, lakes, and streams, as well as the ice caps at the North Pole and the South Pole.

• Parts of the biosphere with large amounts of plants or algae often contain many other organisms as well.

The Biosphere and Ecological Systems (cont.)

Page 10: Chapter Menu Chapter Introduction Lesson 1Lesson 1Populations Lesson 2Lesson 2Changing Populations Lesson 3Lesson 3Communities Chapter Wrap-Up

• An ecosystem is a group of organisms that lives in an area at one time, as well as the climate, soil, water, and other nonliving parts of the environment.

• The study of all ecosystems on Earth is ecology.

What is a population?

Page 11: Chapter Menu Chapter Introduction Lesson 1Lesson 1Populations Lesson 2Lesson 2Changing Populations Lesson 3Lesson 3Communities Chapter Wrap-Up

A community is all the populations of different species that live together in the same area at the same time.

What is a population? (cont.)

Page 12: Chapter Menu Chapter Introduction Lesson 1Lesson 1Populations Lesson 2Lesson 2Changing Populations Lesson 3Lesson 3Communities Chapter Wrap-Up

A population is all the organisms of the same species that live in the same area at the same time.

What defines a population?

What is a population? (cont.)

A species is a group of organisms that have similar traits and are able to produce fertile offspring.

Page 14: Chapter Menu Chapter Introduction Lesson 1Lesson 1Populations Lesson 2Lesson 2Changing Populations Lesson 3Lesson 3Communities Chapter Wrap-Up

• Competition is the demand for resources, such as food, water, and shelter, in short supply in a community.

• When there are not enough resources available to survive, there is more competition in a community.

Competition

Page 15: Chapter Menu Chapter Introduction Lesson 1Lesson 1Populations Lesson 2Lesson 2Changing Populations Lesson 3Lesson 3Communities Chapter Wrap-Up

• Changes in environmental factors can result in population size changes.

• A limiting factor is anything that restricts the size of a population.

• Available sunlight is a limiting factor for most organisms.

• Without sunlight, green plants cannot make food, which effects animals that eat plants.

Population Sizes

Page 16: Chapter Menu Chapter Introduction Lesson 1Lesson 1Populations Lesson 2Lesson 2Changing Populations Lesson 3Lesson 3Communities Chapter Wrap-Up

• Temperature is a limiting factor for some organisms.

• When the temperature drops below freezing, many organisms die because it is too cold to carry out their life functions.

• Disease, predators, and natural disasters such as fires or floods are also limiting factors.

What factors affect the size of a population?

Page 18: Chapter Menu Chapter Introduction Lesson 1Lesson 1Populations Lesson 2Lesson 2Changing Populations Lesson 3Lesson 3Communities Chapter Wrap-Up

• Population density is the size of a population compared to the amount of space available.

• One way of estimating population density is by sample count.

Population Sizes (cont.)

Page 19: Chapter Menu Chapter Introduction Lesson 1Lesson 1Populations Lesson 2Lesson 2Changing Populations Lesson 3Lesson 3Communities Chapter Wrap-Up

Population Sizes (cont.)

population

from Latin populus, means “inhabitants”

density

from Latin densus, means “thick, crowded”

Page 20: Chapter Menu Chapter Introduction Lesson 1Lesson 1Populations Lesson 2Lesson 2Changing Populations Lesson 3Lesson 3Communities Chapter Wrap-Up

• A population’s biotic potential is the largest number of offspring that can be produced when there are no limiting factors present.

• No population on Earth ever reaches its biotic potential because no ecosystem has an unlimited supply of natural resources.

Population Sizes (cont.)

Page 21: Chapter Menu Chapter Introduction Lesson 1Lesson 1Populations Lesson 2Lesson 2Changing Populations Lesson 3Lesson 3Communities Chapter Wrap-Up

• The largest number of individuals of one species that an environment can support is the carrying capacity.

• A population grows until it reaches the carrying capacity of an environment.

Population Sizes (cont.)

Page 22: Chapter Menu Chapter Introduction Lesson 1Lesson 1Populations Lesson 2Lesson 2Changing Populations Lesson 3Lesson 3Communities Chapter Wrap-Up

Carrying capacity is determined in part by limiting factors.

Page 23: Chapter Menu Chapter Introduction Lesson 1Lesson 1Populations Lesson 2Lesson 2Changing Populations Lesson 3Lesson 3Communities Chapter Wrap-Up

• Disease, space, predators, and food are some of the factors that limit the carrying capacity of an ecosystem.

• The carrying capacity of an environment is not constant because it increases and decreases as the amount of available resources increases and decreases.

• When the size of a population becomes larger than the carrying capacity of its ecosystem, overpopulation occurs.

Population Sizes (cont.)

Page 24: Chapter Menu Chapter Introduction Lesson 1Lesson 1Populations Lesson 2Lesson 2Changing Populations Lesson 3Lesson 3Communities Chapter Wrap-Up

• The population density of organisms, including green plants and algae, varies throughout the world.

• A community is all the populations of different species that live together in the same area at the same time.

Page 25: Chapter Menu Chapter Introduction Lesson 1Lesson 1Populations Lesson 2Lesson 2Changing Populations Lesson 3Lesson 3Communities Chapter Wrap-Up

• The number of individuals in a population varies as the amount of available resources varies.

• How do populations change?

• Why do human populations change?

Changing Populations

Page 31: Chapter Menu Chapter Introduction Lesson 1Lesson 1Populations Lesson 2Lesson 2Changing Populations Lesson 3Lesson 3Communities Chapter Wrap-Up

• birthrate

• death rate

• extinct species

• endangered species

Changing Populations

• threatened species

• migration

Page 32: Chapter Menu Chapter Introduction Lesson 1Lesson 1Populations Lesson 2Lesson 2Changing Populations Lesson 3Lesson 3Communities Chapter Wrap-Up

• A population change can be measured by the population’s birthrate and death rate.

• A population’s birthrate is the number of offspring produced over a given period of time.

• The death rate is the number of individuals that die over the same period of time.

How Populations Change

Page 33: Chapter Menu Chapter Introduction Lesson 1Lesson 1Populations Lesson 2Lesson 2Changing Populations Lesson 3Lesson 3Communities Chapter Wrap-Up

• If the birthrate is higher than the death rate, the population increases.

• If the death rate is higher than the birthrate, the population decreases.

• When a population is in ideal conditions with unlimited resources, it grows in a pattern called exponential growth.

How Populations Change (cont.)

Page 34: Chapter Menu Chapter Introduction Lesson 1Lesson 1Populations Lesson 2Lesson 2Changing Populations Lesson 3Lesson 3Communities Chapter Wrap-Up

exponential

Science Use a mathematical expression that contains a constant raised to a power, such as 23 or x2.

Common Use in great amounts

How Populations Change (cont.)

Page 35: Chapter Menu Chapter Introduction Lesson 1Lesson 1Populations Lesson 2Lesson 2Changing Populations Lesson 3Lesson 3Communities Chapter Wrap-Up

• During exponential growth, the larger a population gets, the faster it grows.

• E coli bacteria are microscopic organisms that undergo exponential growth; the population doubles in size every half hour.

How Populations Change (cont.)

Page 36: Chapter Menu Chapter Introduction Lesson 1Lesson 1Populations Lesson 2Lesson 2Changing Populations Lesson 3Lesson 3Communities Chapter Wrap-Up

• Disease and natural disasters such as floods, fires, or volcanic eruptions can decrease populations.

• Predation—the hunting of organisms for food—also reduces population size.

How Populations Change (cont.)

Page 37: Chapter Menu Chapter Introduction Lesson 1Lesson 1Populations Lesson 2Lesson 2Changing Populations Lesson 3Lesson 3Communities Chapter Wrap-Up

• If populations continue to decrease in numbers, they disappear.

• An extinct species is a species that has died out and no individuals are left.

• Extinctions can be caused by predation, natural disasters, or damage to the environment.

extinct

from Latin extinctus, means “extinguish”

Page 39: Chapter Menu Chapter Introduction Lesson 1Lesson 1Populations Lesson 2Lesson 2Changing Populations Lesson 3Lesson 3Communities Chapter Wrap-Up

• An endangered species is a species whose population is at risk of extinction.

• A threatened species is a species at risk, but not yet endangered.

Page 42: Chapter Menu Chapter Introduction Lesson 1Lesson 1Populations Lesson 2Lesson 2Changing Populations Lesson 3Lesson 3Communities Chapter Wrap-Up

• Human population, like all other populations, are affected by birthrate, death rate, and movement.

• Unlike other species, humans have developed ways to increase the carrying capacity of their environment.

• Scientists estimate that there were about 300 million humans on Earth a thousand years ago.

Human Population Changes

Page 43: Chapter Menu Chapter Introduction Lesson 1Lesson 1Populations Lesson 2Lesson 2Changing Populations Lesson 3Lesson 3Communities Chapter Wrap-Up

• Today there are more than 6 billion humans on earth.

• As human population grows, people need to build more houses and roads and clear more land for crops, which means there is less living space, food, and other resources for other species.

• Human energy use contributes to pollution that affects other populations.

Human Population Changes (cont.)

Page 45: Chapter Menu Chapter Introduction Lesson 1Lesson 1Populations Lesson 2Lesson 2Changing Populations Lesson 3Lesson 3Communities Chapter Wrap-Up

• Factors that keep the human birthrate higher than its death rate include food, resources, sanitation, and medical care.

• Advances in agriculture have made it possible to produce food for billions of people.

• Today people have access to more resources because of better transportation methods.

Page 46: Chapter Menu Chapter Introduction Lesson 1Lesson 1Populations Lesson 2Lesson 2Changing Populations Lesson 3Lesson 3Communities Chapter Wrap-Up

• Modern water treatment and more effective cleaning products help prevent the spread of disease-causing organisms that can lead to death.

• Human populations in some parts of the world are decreasing in size because of factors like disease, drought, and natural disasters.

Page 78: Chapter Menu Chapter Introduction Lesson 1Lesson 1Populations Lesson 2Lesson 2Changing Populations Lesson 3Lesson 3Communities Chapter Wrap-Up

A community contains many populations that interact in their energy roles and in their competition for resources. Populations can increase, decrease, and move, affecting the community.

Page 79: Chapter Menu Chapter Introduction Lesson 1Lesson 1Populations Lesson 2Lesson 2Changing Populations Lesson 3Lesson 3Communities Chapter Wrap-Up

• A population is all the organisms of the same species that live in the same area at the same time.

• Population sizes vary due to limiting factors such as environmental factors and available resources.

• Population size usually does not exceed the carrying capacity of the ecosystem.

Lesson 1: Populations

Page 80: Chapter Menu Chapter Introduction Lesson 1Lesson 1Populations Lesson 2Lesson 2Changing Populations Lesson 3Lesson 3Communities Chapter Wrap-Up

Lesson 2: Changing Populations

• Populations of living things can increase, decrease, or move.

• Populations can decrease until they are threatened, endangered, or extinct.

• Human population size is affected by the same three factors as other populations—birthrate, death rate, and environment.

Tom Brakefield/Getty Images

Page 81: Chapter Menu Chapter Introduction Lesson 1Lesson 1Populations Lesson 2Lesson 2Changing Populations Lesson 3Lesson 3Communities Chapter Wrap-Up

• A community is all the populations of different species that live together in the same area at the same time.

• The place within an ecosystem where an organism lives is its habitat and what an organism does in its habitat to survive is its niche.

• Three types of relationships within a community are predator-prey, cooperative, and symbiotic.
