Matter and environmental factors

1. Transformation of energy

2. Energy form the sun enters and is captured by photosynthesis.

3. Carbone dioxide combines with hydrogen to produce carbohydrates.

4. Energy is stored in ATP.

5. Biogeochemistry

6. Study of how chemicals cycles enter the ecosystem.

7. Abiotic factors.

8. Are those on-living physical and chemical factors which affect the ability of organisms to survive and reproduce

9. Biotic factors.

10. Are all living things or their materials that directly or indirectly affect and organism in it´s environment. This would include organisms, their presence, parts, interaction and wastes.

11. Factors such as parasitism, desease and prediction would also be classified as biotic factors.

12. Examples: parasitism, disease and predation

14. Luis Ángel Espinosa: A01650431

15. Carlota GR: A01650416

16. Ecosystems have energy flows and ecosystem cycle materials.

17. Process of ecosystems

18. It enters as light or photons

19. Then is transform into chemical energy in organic molecules by cellular processes, just like photosynthesis and respiration. Result: HEAT

20. Without this process of solar energy the ecosystems would shut down.

21. Examples: light intensity, temperature range
