The environment consists of all the non-living things (abiotic factors) that
affect the life of the organisms. The organisms (biotic factors), on the
other hand, also interact with each other. This interaction forms an
ecosystem.

Biotic Components
1. Autotrophs or producers. These are organisms that can make their
own food. They can obtain nutrients from their environment and
use sunlight as source of energy.

2. Heterotrophs or consumers. They are living things that get their

nutrients by feeding on others. Consumers can be classified
depending on what they eat.
Herbivores Carnivores Omnivores Scavengers

plants.
F. Developing

caterpillar snakes dog, raccoon and hyena

3. Decomposers. These break down dead organic materials to

inorganic materials in soil and water. Inorganic materials can be
taken up as nutrients by producers. Examples are fungi and
bacteria.

Abiotic Components
1. Sunlight – is the primary source of energy. It is of greatest
importance to plants during photosynthesis.
2. Water – is essential for life. All organisms depend on it to survive.
3. Temperature – greatly influences the distribution of plants and
animals. Temperature affects the metabolism of an organism.
4. Wind – amplifies the effects of environmental temperature on
organisms by increasing heat loss due to evaporation.
5. Soil – the composition of soil affects the distribution of plants and
hence of the animals that feed on these plants.
6. Fire and other Disturbances – disastrous events like fire, typhoon,
and volcanic eruption can devastate communities. However, after
the disturbance in an area, the survivors will repopulate and
bring changes to that area. It is essential to renew the ecosystem.

B. DIRECTIONS: Read the statement carefully then answer the question briefly but meaningful. Write your answer on
the space provided.

The ecosystem consists of all the non-living things that affect the life of the organisms (living
things). What do you think may happen if the non-living things were took out from the
ecosystem? Justify your answer.
