A community is

• all the same species in an area

• all the LIVING THINGS (biotic factors) in an area

• all the living AND non living things in an area

• a large area with many ecosystems

Anywhere on Earth where life exists is collectively called the

• ecosystem

• biome

Food is a limiting factor. What would happen to a snake population if all their food was killed off.

• the snake population would increase (go up)

• the snake population would stay the same

• the snake population would decrease

• there would be no change
