Terrestrial habitats are ones that are found on land, like forests, grasslands, deserts, shorelines, and wetlands. A marsh land is a wetland that is dominated by herbaceous plant species.
Semi-natural or man-made habitats such as national parks or biosphere reserve also constitute Terrestrial habitats.
Grassland - Area in which the vegetation is dominated by a nearly continuous cover of grasses.
Terrestrial habitat is a habitat that is found predominantly on land. Forest habitats may be broadly defined as those in which trees are a significant component.
The term “Terrestrial” in Biology is generally used to describe living organisms that live and grow on land.
Arid land - A region is arid when it is characterized by a severe lack of available water, to the extent of hindering or preventing the growth and development of plant and animal life. Environments subject to arid climates tend to lack vegetation
Marine habitat is habitat that support marine life. Marine life depends in some way on the saltiness of water that is in the sea (the term marine comes from the Latin mare, meaning sea or ocean). A habitat is an ecological or environmental area inhabited by one or more living species. The marine environment supports many kinds of these habitats.
Habitat is not necessarily a geographical area, it can be anywhere that living organisms dwell. Organisms that live in water are called Aquatic organism. Some dwell in Fresh water, that is water that does not have salt in it.
An Aquatic Ecosystem is an ecosystem in a body of water. An Estuarine habitat is a dynamic ecosystem having a connection to the open sea through which the sea water enters with the rhythm of the tides.
Although all heterotrophs feed on other organisms their method of feeding differs based on whether they are holozoic which includes carnivorous plants, parasitic organisms and saprophytic organisms, and the type of food that the organism feeds on.
“Transport system, thus refers to the movement of products of metabolic activities around a living organism”
This is a presentation Explaining why transport system is necessary in Living Organism, detailing and describing mechanism of transportation in living organisms
For Year Ten Biology students, who needs to learn about microorganisms around us and the easiest way to culture.
Microorganisms around us
Methods of culturing
Identification and Differentiation of Microorganisms
Types of Culture Medium
Movement in and out of the cell
Diffusion - definition, process, significance, and importance
Osmosis - definition, process, experiment with living cells
Plasmolysis - definition and process
Heamolysis - definition and Process
Basically for Year 10 and above.
Identify Growth as permanent increase in size and weight; Describe the process of Mitosis; Differentiate between growth in plants and animal.
The nature of the process and of the specialized structures developed for waste disposal vary greatly with the size and complexity of the organism.
Excretion is a general term referring to the separation and throwing off of waste materials or toxic substances from the cells
This shows excretion in Lower Organisms
The presentation will be useful for both teachers and student in teaching and learning Cellular respiration. It is best for ages 14-16 years.
At the end of the lesson the students will be able to:
Define cellular respiration
Define aerobic respiration
Explain Krebs Cycle
