Dependence and Independence

It is one instance of a self-regulating balance with an ecosystem

It is the mutual reliance between two or more groups.

What stage of succession is this: grass, weeds, and other non-woody plants rapidly take over the bare ground?

It is something that affects the population of organisms as a consequence of the size of population.

It occurs in areas where ecosystems are destroyed by a natural or artificial disturbance, but soil remains intact.

It is something from outside the population of organisms that affect population.

Give at least 2 example of density-independent factor

This succession follows a volcanic eruption in which magma erupts from a volcano and forms a completely new surface.

What stage of succession where in bushes and young pine-tree saplings take root?

What stage of succession where in the forest has reached a stable climax community state, a fully mature forest?

It is an aquatic ecosystem in a container

Give one example of density-dependent factor.

These species that are able to move into a very new environment.

What stage of succession where in pine forests dominate, inhibiting undergrowth but allowing the growth of hardwood saplings?

It is an ecosystem that supports the greatest number of species possible.

It occurs in barren areas where no traces of previous ecosystems remain.

It is a terrestrial ecosystem in a container.

It is the gradual and orderly process of change in which one community is replaced by another until a stable climax community is once again established.
