Habitats

A group of the same species living together

A group of populations living together

The physical environment where a community, species, population, or organism lives

A combination of habitat and community

Light intensity

Temperature

Predation

Climate

Transects are used to assess species distribution along an abiotic gradient.

Transects always use kite graphs to represent data.

Transects involve recording population data at intervals along a straight line.

Transects can help determine patterns related to limiting factors.

High temperature and low ocean pH

Low light intensity and high salinity

High nutrient levels and low temperature

Low salinity and high light intensity

Tundra

Tropical Rainforest

Grassland

Desert

Sunlight and wind

Temperature and rainfall

Soil type and altitude

Humidity and latitude

Horizontal underground stems (rhizomes)

Extensive root system

Leaves with large surface area

Stomata sunk in pits

Having kidneys with longer loops of Henle

Growing above the canopy

Using mimicry to avoid predation

Being nocturnal to thrive in low light

A population is a group of the same species, while a community is a group of different populations.

A population includes abiotic factors, while a community does not.

A community is smaller than a population.

A population is made up of different species, while a community is made up of the same species.
