chemotropism : response to chemicals causing movement toward or away from the source
gravitropism : the principle that explains why roots grow downward and stems grow upwards
ecology : the study of the interactions between organisms and the nonliving components of their environment
imprinting : the first moving object they observe is followed as if it were their mother
biosphere : the surface of the Earth (air, water and land) where living things exist
predation : an interaction in which one organism captures and feeds on another organism
camouflage : an organism's adaptation to avoid predation
phototropism : the principle that explains why plants bend toward the light
parasitism : a symbiotic relationship in which one member benefits and the other member is harmed
adaptations : physical, physiological, or behavioral traits that enable an organism to be more successful in its environment
sunlight : the ultimate energy for all life on earth
thigmotropism : response to touch
operant : conditioning that is a way of learning that comes from experience
diversity : a measure of the number of different species in an ecosystem
innate : behavior that an organism does without any observation or instruction
mutualism : a symbiotic relationship where both species benefit
generalists : species with broad niches
mimicry : looks similar to a poisonous organism that is avoided by predators
habitat : the physical location of a population
commensalism : a symbiotic relationship in which one member benefits and the other member is unaffected
niche : a role or profession of an organism in its community and in ecology
