All of the species in a given area.

• species

• community

• biome

• population

An organism that moves to a new environment with abundant resources, little to no predators and can outcompete the native species.

• invasive species

• native species

• limiting factors

• biosphere

The following graph shows this type of growth

• normal

• logistic

• exponential

• carrying capacity

Tags

NGSS.HS-LS2-1

When the graph levels off, it is said to be reaching this. It is the amount of individuals the area can support

• logistic growth

• carrying capacity

• exponential growth

• Density independent limiting factor

Tags

NGSS.HS-LS2-1

Competition and disease are examples of this

• exponential factors

• density independent limiting factors

• density dependent limiting factors

• extinction

Tags

NGSS.MS-LS2-4

Weather is an example

• Density independent limiting factor

• Density dependent limiting factor

• carrying capacity

• biome

Tags

NGSS.MS-ESS2-5

Not being able to compete with other species and habitat destruction could lead a species to

• logistic growth

• density independent factors

• exponential growth

• extinction

Tags

NGSS.MS-LS2-1

NGSS.MS-LS2-4

The pioneer species normally found during primary succession

• moss

• lichen

• flower

• grass

During secondary succession this is normally left so succession normally takes place much quicker

• animals

• plants

• trees

• soil

Which is more likely to cause a species to go extinct

• habitat destruction

• invasive species
