Ecology is the study of how organisms interact
with one another (biotic) and with their physical
environment of matter and energy (abiotic) or
the science of connections in nature.
It can range in size, natural and artificial, has
no clear boundaries and are not isolated from
one another.
Matter and energy move from one to other
ecosystems
The ecosystem is composed of various of
inputs, processes or stores and outputs.
It should maintains its dynamic equilibrium.

Sustaining lite on Eartn
Life is sustained by flow of energy from sun
through the biosphere, cycling of nutrients within
the biosphere, and gravity. The earth depends
on three interdependent factors:
1)Energy flow: One-way flow of high-quality
energy from sun for feeding interactions of
organisms. It changes to low quality energy and
cannot be recycled. (First and 2th laws of
thermodynamics)
2)Cycling of matter or nutrients through part of
Biosphere for survival. Because Earth is closed to
space matter, nutrient should be recycled to
support life. (law of conservation of matters)
3)Gravity enable the movement of chemicals
through air, water, soil, and organisms and held

Atmosphere: it(air) is a thin spherical
envelope of gases surrounding the earth’s
surface.
Hydrosphere: it(water) consists of all water
on or near the earth’s surface and covers
71% of the globe.

* Troposphere: is the inner layer of
atmosphere with the extension of 17 km
above sea level at tropics and 7 km at poles.
* Greenhouse gases: are the 1% of remaining
gases (H20, CO2, CH4) out of 78% N2 plus
21% of O2 which make up air in troposphere.
* Stratosphere: is the upper layer next to T
stretching 17-50 km with O3 to filter harmful
ultraviolet radiation of sun and allows life to
exist

and underground
Ice: in form of polar ice and iceberg

Geosphere and Biosphere
Geosphere consist of hot core(ss«) , a thick mantle
(se), and a thin outer crust (i534) .
Biosphere is a thin layer of the combination of A, H,
and G extended from 9km above earth surface to
bottom of the ocean where life exist.
Biomes: a large region of terrestrial part of
biosphere such as forest, desert, grasslands etc with
distinct climate and certain specious
Aquatic life zones: watery part of biosphere which
consists of freshwater life zone and marine life zone.
The goal of ecology is to understand the interactions
in this thin layer of air, water, soil, and organisms.

Abiotic consists of nonliving
components such as water, air,
nutrients, rocks, heat, and solar
energy.
Biotic consists of living and once living
biological components such as plants,
animals, microbes, dead organisms,
dead part of organisms, and the
waste products of organisms.

+ Range of tolerance: each population in an
ecosystem has a range of tolerance to variations
in its physical and chemical environment.
* Ecological principal of limiting factors: Too much
or too little of any abiotic factors can limit or
prevent growth of a population, even if all other
factors are at or near the optimal range of
tolerance.
* Main abiotic limiting factors: A) include
temperature, sunlight, nutrient availability, low
solubility of O2, and salinity in aquatic life zone.
B) include Precipitation, soil nutrient,
temperature in biomass.

level or trophic level.
Trophic level: is the feeding level of every organisms
in an ecosystem that transfer energy and nutrient
from one to another level and can classify to P & C.
Autotrophs: or producers or self-feeders make the
nutrients they need from compounds and energy
obtained from their environment such as green plants,
algae, and phytoplankton. They changed solar energy
(1%) and stored chemical energy through
photosynthesis. There are bacteria using geothermal
energy (H2S) by process called chemosynthesis in
deep oceans.
Heterotrophs: or consumers or other-feeders obtain
their nutrient by feeding on other organisms,
producers or other consumers, or their remains and
not produce their needs though photosynthesis.

Heterotrophs or consumers
Primary consumers or herbivores: plant eaters
Secondary consumers or carnivores: meat eaters
Higher-level consumers: carnivores that feed on the

plants and animals to soil for reuse 4 5 isla

Energy flew
* All Producers, Consumers and Decomposers
use chemical energy stored (glucose) to fuel
their life processes and release this energy
by aerobic respiration (5! su-44)
C6H1206 + 6 O2 = 6CO2 + 6 H20 + energy
* Some decomposers use cellular respiration in
the absence of O2, called anaerobic
respiration or fermentation (.244)and end up
by producing methane gas CH4 or ethyl
alcohol C2H602, or acetic acid C2H402
* Energy flews through ecosystems in food chain and
web while the amount of chemical energy available
to organisms at each succeeding feeding level
decreases
صفحه 25:
Food chain in Ecosystems
+ Food chain determines how chemical energy and
nutrients move from one form of organisms to
another through the trophic level in an ecosystem
through photosynthesis, feeding and decomposition.
It chnges some useful energy to the heat.
+ Food web is a complex network of interconnected
food chain which shows how a consumer organism
feed on one or more type of producer organisms in
the natural ecosystems.
* Food chains and webs demonstrate how producers,
consumers, and decomposers are connected to one
another as energy flows through trophic levels of
Es
صفحه 26:
Differentiation of Ecosystems by
Energy usage
Loss of energy in organisms; the more trophic levels there are in food
chain, the greater is the accumulative loss of usable chemical energy
as it flows through the T.L.
Ecological efficiency of energy ranges from 2-40% (loss of 60-98%),
depending what type of species and ecosystems are involved, but
10% is typical.
Gross Primary Productivity (GPP) is the rate at which an ecosystems
producers (plants) convert solar energy into chemical energy as
biomass found in their tissues. (kcal/m2/yr)
To stay alive, grow and reproduce, producers must use some of
chemical energy stored in the biomass they make for their
respiration.
Net Primary Productivity (NPP) is the rate at which producers use
photosynthesis to produce and store chemical energy minus the rate
at which they use some of this stored chemical energy though
aerobic respiration.
NPP =GPP-R __ Ris energy used in respirations
Ecosystems differ in their NPP and decrease from equator toward
poles

Biodiversity
Biological diversity: is a variety of the Earth’s species, the
genes they contain, the ecosystems in which they live,
and the ecosystem processes such as energy flow and
nutrient cycling that sustain all life. It is a vital renewable
resource.
Genes diversity: is a part of BD that enable life on the
Earth to adapt to and survive dramatic environmental
changes and sustain the life of Earth.
Species diversity: is the most obvious component of BD.
There are 4-100 million species, 1.8 M identified including
a million of insects, 270000 plants, 45000 vertebrate.
Ecosystem diversity : is a storehouse of genetic and
species D.
Functional diversity: is the variety of process such as
matter cycling and energy flow taking place within the
ecosystems as species interact in food chains and webs
