Habitat & Ecosystem

  1. HABITAT
Habitat an organism is a living organism, or a place where one should go to find these organisms. The term habitat is widely used, not only in ecological but everywhere. But in general the term is defined as the life of a living being.
Habitat namely resources and conditions that exist in an area that is occupied by a species impact. Habitat is an organism-specific: it connects the presence of species, populations, or idndividu (animal or plant) with an area of physical and biological characteristics. Habitat consists of more than just vegetation or the vegetation structure; a number of special resource needs of a species. Wherever an organism given the resources that affect the ability to survive, that's called habitat.
Availability of habitat refers to the accessibility of the physical and biological components that are needed by animals, in contrast to the abundance of resources that only shows the quantity of each organism habitats that exist in these habitats. In theory we can calculate the number and types of resources available for wildlife; in practice, it is almost impossible to calculate the availability of resources from the standpoint of wildlife.
  1. ECOSYSTEM
Ecosystem is an ecological system formed by the interrelationships between the living and the environment. Ecosystems can be considered as a unit arrangement completely and thoroughly between all elements of the environment that affect each other.
Ecosystem is an amalgamation of every unit Biosystems involves reciprocal interactions between organisms and the physical environment so that a flow of energy towards a specific biotic structure and there is a cycle between organisms and anorganisme material. The sun as the source of all the energy there.
In ecosystems, organisms develop in the community together with the physical environment as a system. The organism will adapt to the physical environment, otherwise the organism also affect the physical environment for living. The idea is based on the Gaia Hypothesis, namely: "organisms, in particular microorganisms, together with the physical environment produces a control system which keeps the state on Earth suitable for life".
The presence, abundance and distribution of species in an ecosystem is determined by the availability of resources as well as chemical and physical conditions of the factors that should be within the range that can be tolerated by this species, this is called the law of tolerance. For example: Panda has a wide tolerance to temperature, but has a narrow tolerance to food, namely bamboo. Thus, pandas can live in the ecosystem with any condition as long as it is present in the ecosystem of bamboo as a food source.
The community structure in a habitat may difference with other habitats. This was attributed to differences in resources as well as chemical and physical conditions of the factors that should be within the range that can be tolerated by the species.

    tata bahasa yang digunakan baik. tetapi penulisan disamakan agar lebih tertata ya. kemudian saya ada pertanyaan, dapatkah 2 spesies menempati 1 habitat? kemudian bagaimana hubungan antara ekosistem dengan habitat?

      terimakasih..
      dua spesies da pat menempti habitat yang sama tergantung kebutuhan nutrisinya..
      hubungan antara habitat dan ekosistem yaitu habitat merupakan tempat tinggal dari makhluk hidup (organisme) dan ekosistem merupakan interaksi antara makhluk hidup dengan sesama makhluk hidup lainnya dan juga dengan lingkungannya..

    Penulisan yang dilakukan sudah baik. Untuk lebih menariknya, bisa ditambahi gambar yang mendukung isi teks yang dibahas dan memberi contoh, sehingga pembaca bisa lebih mengerti dan memahami dengan baik. Overall, great! :) Fighting! :)

Ecthoterm and Endoterm Animals

Ecthoterm animal Ecthoterm animals are animals that are very dependent on the temperature in the external environment to increase its body temperature due to the heat generated from  whole thesystem of metabolism only slightly. Ecthoterm animals, namely all kinds of animals except aves and mammals, a group of animals whose body heat depending on the heat from the outside of the body, namely the environment. Power is owned by his set is very limited and its body temperature varies with the temperature of the environment. This causes poikilotherm animals have a low tolerance range, in the sense that this animal narrow niche subject. When the ambient temperature is high, beyond the tolerance limit, ecthoterm animals will die while when the ambient temperature is lower than the optimum temperature, activity was low and the animal becomes very slow, making it easy for predators to catch. Power set in animals ecthoterm and not of physiological adaptation but rather in the form of ...

Condition and Resources

Hippopotamus Hippopotamus amphibius Hippopotamuses love water, which is why the Greeks named them the "river horse." Hippos spend up to 16 hours a day submerged in rivers and lakes to keep their massive bodies cool under the hot African sun. Hippos are graceful in water, good swimmers, and can hold their breath underwater for up to five minutes. However, they are often large enough to simply walk or stand on the lake floor, or lie in the shallows. Their eyes and nostrils are located high on their heads, which allows them to see and breathe while mostly submerged. Hippos also bask on the shoreline and secrete an oily red substance, which gave rise to the myth that they sweat blood. The liquid is actually a skin moistener and sunblock that may also provide protection against germs. At sunset, hippopotamuses leave the water and travel overland to graze. They may travel 6 miles (10 kilometers) in a night, along single-file pathways, to consume some 80 pounds (35 kilogram...

Community

A. Definition of Community Community is a collection of various populations who live at a time and specific regions that interact and influence each other. Community has a degree of integration is more complex when compared with individuals and populations. B. Community Name Name of the community should be able to provide information on the nature of the community. The most simple way, naming it by using words which may indicate how the form communities like grasslands, deserts, forests of teak. The best way to call the community is to take some clear and steady nature, whether living or not. This summary is based on the naming of the community can: 1. Establish or major structures like the kind of dominant form of life or other indicators such as the pine forest, forest agathis, teak forests, or forests Dipterocarphaceae, can also be based on the nature of the dominant vegetation such as forests sclerophyll 2. Based on the physical habitat of the community, such as commun...
