  2. 1. An ecosystem is made up of all the living and non-living things that interact in one place. 2. An ecosystem needs to have living and non-living things.
    3. All living things use water to drink and survive.
    Living things also need air to breath and to survive.

  3. An ecosystem is made up of all the living and nonliving things that interact in one place. To make up an ecosystem you must have living things such as plants and animals. Some interactions you might see in an ecosystem such as The Florida Everglades are Alligators being in warm place and drinking lots of water.

  4. An ecosystem is an area where living and non-living things interact. Creatures, plants, food, and a place make up an ecosystem. A turtle eats fish, plants, and insects in its ecosystem. After it digests the food it makes waste. The waste is food for smaller animals and plants.

  5. An ecosystem is a place or area where both living and non-living things are found. Places, animals, food, and insects make up an ecosystem. In a swamp there are a lot of things such as soil, sunlight, water, fish, crocodiles, alligators, types of grass, types of trees, turtles, birds, mosquitoes, water bugs, bacteria, water snakes, leeches, deer, spoonbills and more. The larger animals come along and eat smaller animals. The number of animals is controlled by how much food is available.

  6. An ecosystem is made of living and nonliving things in one place like the everglades, the forest and my house. The living things are me, my dog, my fish, and my sisters. Some nonliving things are a vase, a tv, and a stove. - Dylan B.

  7. Forest Biomes

    1. Tropical Rain Forest are very rainy and hot. Location is near the equator.The climate is warm and wet. Some rain forests get more than 240in. of rain each year. More kinds of plants and animal live in this biome than any other. It's huge mass of plants produces much of the Earth's oxygen. Some of these plants might aupply new medicines and other useful products.

    2.Temperate Forest experiences four distinct seasons: Summer,Fall,Winter and Spring. Location is eastern North America and other places. Temperatures range from a chilly -22 F to a warm 86 F. A temperate forest receives perhaps one-fifth the rainfall of a tropical forest. the animals that hibernate live in the temperate forest due to the winter season.

  15. The Taiga has long,severe winters and short,cool summers. Temperatures may reach 50(F) in the summer.The taiga is fairly dry receiving about 20 inches of precipitation, mostly snow.The leaves do not fall at once when the weather turns cold.

    The Tundra is the earth's coldest biome. In an average winter temperature go down to minus 29 (F). In summer temperatures hoover just under 50 (F).
    The Tundra is located near the Arctic circle.

  17. An ecosystem is a place made up of living and nonliving things that interact together. An ecosystem needs both living and nonliving things to exist. An example of interaction is the sunlight interacts with plants and the plant then makes food for animals.
