ECOSYSTEM
An ecosystem is made up of
plants and animals live
together in a certain
environment.
Habitat, sunlight, water,
temperature, population,
overexploitation, and
invasive species affect the
balance of the ecosystem.
ECOSYSTEM
The changes that happen as a
result of ecological
interaction might affect the
balance in the ecosystem.
When one organism
increases the other
organisms might be
affected.
Ecological interaction
An example of this
phenomenon is the
decreasing numbers of frogs,
human see the frog as an
alternative source of food,
\ Ecological interaction
An example of this
phenomenon is the
decreasing numbers of frogs,
human see the frog as an
alternative source of food,
the decrease in the number of
frogs will result in the
increasing number of
mosquito.
\ Ecological interaction
As the number of
mosquitoes increases, the
occurrence of diseases
caused by mosquitoes might
also increase.
\ Extinction
If the disturbance in the
ecological interaction
continues to take place,
Extinction might occur.
Extinction happens when
the last living organism of
a specific species died.
\
Let’s find out how these
interactions affect organisms in
their environment.

MUTUALISM
It is an interaction
of two organisms
wherein both are
getting benefits
from each other.
COMMENSALIS
M
This is an interaction
between organisms in
which one is benefiting
while the one never
been affected neither
beneficially nor
harmfully.
COMMENSALIS
M
• The tree provides a
stable environment
to orchids.
• The tree is neither
harmed or
benefited.
COMMENSALIS
M
Cattle egrets eat the
insects stirred up by
cattle when they are
grazing. The cattle are
unaffected, while the
birds gain food.
PARASITISM
The predator is an
animal that is usually
benefited by eating
the prey (animal that
is harmed).
PREDATION
The predator is an
animal that is usually
benefited by eating
the prey (animal that
is harmed).
COMPETITION
Generally can be
defined as the direct or
indirect interaction of
organisms that leads to
a change in fitness
when the organisms
share the same
resource.
