coral ecosystems are some of the key habitats found in Singapore. Singapore is a city-state with a land area of about 710 km. It is one of the most densely populated countries in the world and yet‚ harbours rich native biodiversity‚ both terrestrial and marine. The wealth of biodiversity can be attributed to Singapore’s strategic location within the Malesian region. Favourable climatic conditions also help to account for the rich diversity of flora and fauna found in its varied ecosystems. The

Ecologies and Environments Artize L. Johnson Professor: Denise Stiglich SCI 110 Introduction to Physical Science 4 March 2012 1. Describe your local and surrounding ecologies and environments. Before we can describe the local and surrounding ecologies and environments‚ we have to know the meaning of ecology and environment. The relation among organisms and the environment that they are in is called ecology. During an organism’s lifetime

In order to be an ecosystem‚ energy should be transferred in a form of organisms. There should be a food chain in order to be an ecosystem‚ when one organism eats the other.

This lab is an opportunity to observe‚ study‚ and learn about ecosystems and how the environment sustains life but in a much simpler and smaller scale which is called Eco Columns. The environmental conditions in the Eco Column could sustain life for several weeks‚ therefore over the course of the several weeks we will observe and study the interconnections between each ecosystems. A self sustaining requires components such as energy flow and chemical cycle. This experiment will evaluate our knowledge
