3. Use a pen with blue ink to circle each nonliving thing.
4. Draw lines to connect the living things to the non-living
things they need. Use a pen with black ink for this
purpose.

things?

organism and all the things in it. It includes not only living
things but also nonliving things such as light, water, air and
soil. Everything around us makes up the environment.

2. Add layer of soil to fill approximately 1/3 of the jar.
3. Put the different varieties of plants in the soil. Decorate
the miniature forest with toy animals.
4. Water the set-up and cover. Place it outside the
classroom where it can receive sunlight.
5. Open it every after two days to let some fresh air enter.
Water it as needed. Note any changes that you may
observe on the miniature forest.
Thinking Critically
Think of your answer to each question about the activity.
1. What are the biotic components in your ecosystem
model?
2. What factors were necessary for the plants in the jar to
survive?
 3. What factors contributed to the growth of the plants in
the jar?

An individual living thing of any kind is called ORGANISM.

Organisms of one kind that live together in an area from a
PUPOLATION. Different populations that live in a particular
area form a COMMUNITY. Communities interact with nonliving
things to form an ECOSYSTEM.
ECOLOGICAL RELATIONSHIPS
Relationships and interactions exist among organisms of
different species. These relationships are needed for the
survival of organisms. The most common relationship
involves feeding, but organisms also interact in other ways.
These relationships among organisms are either symbiotic
such as commensalism, mutualism, and parasitism, or non-
symbiotic such as competition and predation.
Symbiotic Relationship- “Living together” close relationship
between two organisms in which one organism and in which at
least one organism benefits.
Commensalism-symbiotic relationship in which only one
organism in the partnership benefits, while the other organism
is neither benefited nor harmed.
Mutualism-symbiotic relationship that benefits both organisms.
To provide protection and to have steady supply of food are
the common reasons why two organisms share such a
partnerships.
Parasitism-symbiotic relationship in which one organism
benefits and the other is harmed.
NON-SYMBIOTIC relationship
Competition- type of relationship in which a population of
organisms struggles against other populations for basic
resources in order to meet their basic needs to live and
survive.
Predation- is an organism that kills and eats other organisms.
An organism that is killed and eaten is called prey.

the lesson 2. Ecosystem includes both biotic and abiotic
components.
3. Biotic components of an ecosystem are all organisms
living in it.
4. Abiotic components of an ecosystem include water,
sunlight, oxygen, temperature, and soil.
5. The 3 types of symbiotic relationships are mutualism,
commensalism, and parasitism.
6. Competition and predation are non-symbiotic
