Echo-h+logoo+my-m= What is Ecology? Oikos - in the house Logos – to study It is the study of organisms and the environment interacting with one another. Pinta Island Tortoise Home POlar Bear Home Ecosystem ● It includes organisms, populations, and communities, each influencing the properties of the others. ● Is any unit that includes all organisms in an given interacting with the physical environment. home Mutualism - Both organisms benefits Parasitism - One organism benefits and the other is being harmed. (Host and parasite) Commensalism - One organism benefits while the other neither benefits, nor harmed Predation - Predator and prey Games GEOSCIENCE What’s your thought?

It is the study of Earth What do Geoscientist DO? next home Geoscientists study and work with ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ minerals, soils, energy resources, fossils, oceans and freshwater, the atmosphere, weather, environmental chemistry and biology, natural hazards and more. Back Game Ate – e + most – st + sphere – e + tic – t = ATMOSPHERI C SCIENCE You first! Back What is Atmospheric Science? It is the study of the Earth’s atmosphere It is the study of the physics and chemistry of clouds, gases, and aerosols (airborne particles) that surround the planetary bodies of the solar system. Learn more! Research in atmospheric science includes such varied areas of interest as: Back Next Atmospheric chemistry — the chemical composition of the atmosphere. Atmospheric physics — the study of processes such as heating and cooling of the atmosphere. Aeronomy — the study of the upper atmosphere. Oceanography — the study of the Earth’s oceans and how they affect the atmosphere . Research in atmospheric science includes such varied areas of interest as: Climatology — the study of long-term weather and temperature trends. Dynamic meteorology — the study of the motions of the atmosphere. Cloud physics — the formation and evolution of clouds and precipitation. . Home Game Cheat – at + miss – s + try = Back Environmental CHEMISTRY What is this? What is Environemental Chemistry? It is the study of the changes that chemicals make in the environment. Back Such as…. • Cotamination of the environement • Degradation of chemicals beneficial to the organisms • The transport of chemicals upon the plant and animals. Home 1 Nature Knows ____ BEST Next Nature manifests certain processes that enable it to maintain balance and remain in a state of equilibrium… any disruption on these processes can bring imbalance 1 Nature Knows ____ BEST Home Human have to comprehend nature and must obey the rules that our nature dictates 2 All forms of Life are i___r___t mpo tan Each organism plays a fundamental role in nature Back Next Ecological Niche The Philippines ranks high among the biodiversity hotspots But certain factors causes biodiversity to be limited factors that affect the biodiversity habitat destruction Back Over harvesting Deforestation Pollution Home 3 onne t d Everything is c____C_e_ to Everything else Home Biotic and Abiotic components interact with each other. Inter-specific relationships create a dependency with each other so that they both have to co-exist to live. Human interaction with nature oftentimes alters the ecosystems and there is a cause-and-effect chain 4 h g s Everything c_an_e_ Home Changes in the Changes in the biophysical biophysical world occur world occur naturally. naturally. Random changes manifested by natural catastrophe Human-induced alteration may cause more massive consequences. 5 Everything must go so___h_re mew e By-products of consumption go back to the environment. Home 6 i t Earth Ours is a f_ni_e ● ● Next Everything that we need is provided by nature in abundance. ● However, some resources that we depend upon nowadays are extracted excessively but are slow to replace. These non-renewable resources experience limits of supply Home Increasing population decreases the amount of resources available to each person The philosophy of “sapat”, meaning “enough” suggests that we should buy and consume only what we need and leave some for the less privileged and the next generation. 7 au f l N_t_r_ a u e is be__ti_u_ Home and we are stewards of God’s C_ea___n r tio being the most rationale, intelligent, and gifted creation, it is our ethical responsibility to take care of the environment. All His creations exist and destined not to be abused but to be taken care of. ● ● Next Quiz Time https://forms.gle/dCSGyLbsKPpn3UEn9 Back Well Done!
