2. how do organisms feed?

Organisms can be divided into:

- Self-living organisms

(able to produce their own food, e.g. plants, self-living bacteria, some protists)-
Non-nutritious organisms

(obtain their own food, e.g. animals, fungi, protists, bacteria)What types of adulterous
organisms are there?

1) Predators (eat other animals)2) Parasitoids (take food from other organisms)

3. herbivores (eat plants)

4. omnivores (eat both plants and animals)

What is photosynthesis?

It is the way in which self-living organisms (e.g. plants) feed themselves.

How does photosynthesis work?Organisms take in carbon dioxide from the air, water
from the soil and, with the help of light, produce food sugar and oxygen

● diagram from exercise

Water + carbon dioxide (with light) gives oxygen and sugar

Adaptations of organisms:

Predators:

Herbivores

Parasites

- ability to run fast,

- good eyesight

- good hearing

- good sense of smell

- claws

- flat teeth

- wide hooves
- mouthparts of insects

-mouthparts allowing attachment to the body

3. what is life like in water

What is the environment?

It is all the animate and inanimate elements of nature

Elements of the environment:

Animate elements

Non-living elements

-Plants

-Bacteria

-Protists

-Animals

-Fungi

-water

-Sun

-wind

- Air

- Substrate

Features of aquatic environments

- Low amount of sunlight (the deeper the less light)

- Low oxygen levels

- Stable temperature

- High density (which makes movement difficult)

Types of Reservoirs:

Artificial Reservoirs
Natural reservoirs

Generally a small, man-made reservoir:

- farm ponds in parks

-ponds

- artificial lakes

Large, created by nature:

- Natural lakes,

- Natural ponds

- marshes
