Food, Water, Air, Shelter, and Space What term describes animals that are fighting for the same need? Competition What term describes animals working together to meet a need? Cooperation What term describes organisms within a population that have specific jobs to ensure basic needs are met? (Bees and Ants) Social Hierarchy What term describes an organisms need to establish a habitat in order to meet basic needs and obtain resources? Territorial Imperative (True/False) Too much of any of need can be as harmful as too little. True SOL LS.8 Identify each as a producer, consumer, or decomposer. A grasshopper is a _____________. Consumer Wheat is a _____________. Producer A bacteria spore is a _____________. Decomposer Contrast a predator and prey. Predator eats Prey Give an example of a predator – prey relationship. Wolf eats Rabbit Give an example of a producer – consumer relationship. Rabbit eats Grass Identify each symbiotic relationship. One thing benefits while the other is harmed. (Tick on a Dog) Parasitism One thing benefits while the other isn’t affected. (Vultures feed on the scrapes left by a Lion) Commensalism Both things benefit. (Sharks are cleaned by a smaller fish) Mutualism What is an animal’s role or job in life called?
