What to Focus On

  • Biosphere is the life-supporting zone of Earth.
  • It includes biotic (living) and abiotic (non-living) components.
  • Hierarchy: Individual → Population → Community → Ecosystem → Biome → Biosphere.
  • Ecology studies organism-environment interactions.
  • Ecosystems are of two main types: terrestrial and aquatic.
  • Aquatic ecosystems vary in productivity based on sunlight, nutrients, and oxygen.
  • Food chain shows linear energy transfer.
  • Food web shows interconnected feeding relationships.
  • Decomposers break down dead matter and recycle nutrients.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Biome and ecosystem are the same thing – just different names for a natural area with plants and animals.

The food chain shows all the feeding relationships in an ecosystem.

All deserts are hot and sandy.
