Ecology Benchmark

During this unit I was able to expand my knowledge about ecosystem interactions. I learned about the topic in eight grade and I haven’t touched upon it sense then. Being able to be reminded was really helpful because this was something that I could have needed to remembered for any testing about this topic. Some key points that stood out to me about this unit is the three types of interactions which are mutualism, commensalism, and parasitism. Also remembering about the difference between abiotic and biotic factors. These stood out to me the most because they are two of many things that make up a ecosystem. While learning this unit I want to get more into what the decomposers do in a ecosystem. We know that they play a role and we know what they do, but we don’t actually go any deeper than that. I want to know what factors can affect the decomposers in any ecosystem. Overall I enjoyed making this poster even though it took hours to make. I’m glad about how much I was able to take from this unit.
