An ecosystem needs sunlight,rain,animals,temperature,minerals,and bacteria. There are many ecosystems in the world. In an ecosystem every organism has it's own role to play.Ecosystems also have microgransims,soil,rocks,and minerals.


-Biomes
Biomes are the way to divide the earths surface. Biomes divide the earth because of the climate patterns, soil types,and the animals and plants that inhabit the area. Biomes are in dry lands and in water. There are different ways to look at different biomes. Biomes divide themselves into five different ways: Desert,Aquatic,Forest,Grasslands, and Tundra.


What is symbiosis?
Symbiosis is an interaction between two different organisms living in close physical association. There are 4 different examples of symbiosis: Commensalism, parasitism, mutualism, endosymbiosis and   
ectosymbiosis. Commensalism is a relationship where other organisms 
benefits from the symbiosis. Parasitism is one organism benefits from a relationship but at the expense of others. Mutualism is a relationship that two species of different organisms in which both organisms benefit from the association.

Wetlands are lands consisting of marshes and swamps and is a saturated land. Wetlands are like a land full of water with bugs,insects,mammals,reptiles,birds,and amphibians. What you would see in a wetland is everglades,plant-life,tall trees,and animals. Wetlands are called sloughs. Marshes are also part of wetlandsand  they have shallow layers. Some wetlands use saltwater instead of freshwater. Wetlands can be found on every continent. Bogs are also the same thing as wetlands. Wetlands live beside rivers and around other bodies of water.

Why are wetlands important 

Wetlands are important because animals depend on the wetlands for a place to live with their families and also depend on the food.

The climate of a wetland is 50 degrees Fahrenheit to 57 degrees Fahrenheit because of groundwater contact.]]> 2017-03-10 13:48:07 UTC https://padlet.com/zcole1/4m9go55xwqi3/wish/159260527 zcole1 https://padlet.com/zcole1/4m9go55xwqi3/wish/160071351 2017-03-14 18:18:52 UTC https://padlet.com/zcole1/4m9go55xwqi3/wish/160071351 zcole1 https://padlet.com/zcole1/4m9go55xwqi3/wish/160073106 A food chain is how living things get it's food and how the nutrients and energy from the sun are passed from animals to animals. The food chain begins with plant life and end with the animal life. Some of the animals eats plants and some animals eats other different animals.]]> 2017-03-14 18:24:19 UTC https://padlet.com/zcole1/4m9go55xwqi3/wish/160073106 zcole1 https://padlet.com/zcole1/4m9go55xwqi3/wish/160073199 The food chains in wetlands are the turtles eat the fish which the fish eat the phyotoplankton in the water. African wetlands are home to the secondary consumers like the crocodiles. The crocodiles eat the hippos which hippos are primary consumers which hippos only eat grasses and reeds in the water. ]]> 2017-03-14 18:24:42 UTC https://padlet.com/zcole1/4m9go55xwqi3/wish/160073199 zcole1 https://padlet.com/zcole1/4m9go55xwqi3/wish/161578427 Biotic is a living thing that lives in an ecosystem. Biotic factors are made of living cells. Biotic factors are living organisms they waste what they can produce. Biotic factors refers to life forms such as trees and mammals. Small life forms such as insects and algae and microscopic life forms susceptible as bacteria. These are the diverse and easily changeable parts of their ecosystem. These Biotic factors are the subject to the balance of their food chains and influenced by a disease and pollution and abiotic conditions. Biotic factors are living components that affects the population of other organisms or the environment. Biotic factors is also referred to human influences and disease outbreaks.


What is Abiotic?
Abiotic is a non living thing are soil,rocks,sunlight,and tree. Abiotic are important to the environments. Abiotic factors determine which animal survive in a given environment. Water is very important to the wetland because the animals live in the water and plant need the water to survive. ]]> 2017-03-21 16:48:17 UTC https://padlet.com/zcole1/4m9go55xwqi3/wish/161578427 zcole1 https://padlet.com/zcole1/4m9go55xwqi3/wish/162240818 Crocodiles can be aggressive and over protective about there food and there baby's. Crocodiles are predators and they are carnivores they also live in the wetlands the crocodiles are also use to live with dinosaurs a long time ago. You can find crocodiles in swamps and in other wet areas. Their many crocodiles in the world. The black caiman endangered because their are hunt for their meat.
