Question

1. what is a species? 2. an ecosystem contains all different species of organisms and such as water, air, temperature, and precipitation. 3. list below the levels of organization from smaller to largest and describe what belongs in each level. 4. what level of organization are the following pictures? a. b.

Explanation:

1. A species is a group of organisms that can interbreed and produce fertile offspring.
2. An ecosystem contains all different species of organisms and non - living factors (abiotic factors) such as water, air, temperature, and precipitation.
3. The levels of organization from smallest to largest are: cell (basic unit of life), tissue (group of similar cells), organ (group of tissues), organ - system (group of organs), organism (an individual living thing), population (group of the same species), community (group of different species), ecosystem (community + abiotic factors), biosphere (all ecosystems on Earth).
4. Without seeing the content of the pictures clearly, if picture a shows a single organism or a part of an organism, it could be an organism or organ level. If picture b shows multiple species interacting in an area, it could be a community or ecosystem level.

Answer:

1. A group of organisms that can interbreed and produce fertile offspring.
2. Non - living factors (abiotic factors)
3. Cell: basic unit of life; Tissue: group of similar cells; Organ: group of tissues; Organ - system: group of organs; Organism: an individual living thing; Population: group of the same species; Community: group of different species; Ecosystem: community + abiotic factors; Biosphere: all ecosystems on Earth
4. Without clear picture content: a. Could be organism or organ level; b. Could be community or ecosystem level
