There are several levels of organization in ecosystems. Here are some of the things that fit into these categories that are on my plot:
Species
- Chipmunks
- Squirrels
- Snakes
- Bunny rabbits
Population
- A nest of snakes
- A dray of squirrels
- A colony of bunny rabbits
- A scurry/ sweet of chipmunks
Community
- The group of living organisms on my plot/ other people's plots
- Families of several people on a farm with pets
- All living organisms in Lake Michigan
Ecosystem
- My plot (all biotic and abiotic organisms)
- A neighborhood
- An entire city in the middle of Minnesota
Then there are several different bio-zones such as temperate zone, arctic zone, tropical zone, etc. These are all encompassed into one world, our biosphere.
