An ecosystem is a community of living and nonliving things that interact in an environment. These flash cards help students learn the vocabulary of ecology, from food chains to the relationships between organisms and their habitats.
These flash cards pair ecology terms with their definitions. Students flip cards to learn that a HABITAT is where an organism lives, a PREDATOR hunts other animals for food, and PHOTOSYNTHESIS is how plants make food from sunlight.
Use these flash cards during a biology or environmental science unit. After studying, have students build a food web diagram for a local ecosystem. Discuss what happens when one species is removed from the web.
