Any living part of the environment with which an organism might interact What is allowed to enter/leave both an open system and closed system Where energy for an ecosystem comes from Plants, animals, insects, reptiles System that allows matter in/out. Energy can enter/leave too How is the amount of life in an ecosystem effected by the number of hours of daylight it receives. Identify the INDEPENDENT VARIABLE. Comes from observations or data collected during an experiment How is the amount of life in an ecosystem effected by the number of hours of daylight it receives. Identify the DEPENDENT VARIABLE. 1. All the biotic factors (plants, animals, insects, bacteria, etc.) 2. All the abiotic factors (rivers, lakes, streams, air) 3. Area of the planet Scientific explanation for what is occurring. A system in which no matter is allowed to enter or leave. Energy CAN enter/leave sunlight, temperature, precipitation/water, soil How is the amount of life in an ecosystem effected by the number of hours of daylight it receives. Identify a CONTROLLED VARIABLE. The study of how living things interact with each other and their environment The non-living parts of an organism's habitat. Explanation of what your evidence from an experiment means.
