What you'll learn
Each question helps you build key knowledge and skills.
- 1A food web shows how several food chains overlap, showing that most organisms eat and are eaten by more than one species.
- 2Interdependence means organisms rely on each other for food, shelter and reproduction, so removing one species can affect many others.
- 3Organisms compete for resources such as food, water, light, space or mates, and adaptations help them compete successfully.
- 4Quadrats are used to sample organisms in a habitat, and results can be used to estimate the population size across a larger area.
