The impact could be local or global. 11). POPULATION 16, 24, 25 It is a group of interbreeding members of the same species. 2) Exponential (Geometric) Growth Rate: Exponentially means some constant raised to power. This means as population gets larger and larger, it grows faster and faster in succeeding intervals of time. Doubling time can vary from minutes in case of bacteria to many years in case of elephants (750 years). Zero Population Growth: Crude birth rate = crude death rate; the result is zero population growth.

While assessing mass at each trophic level and then plotting it, it forms a ‘Pyramid’ in which the mass of producers is far greater than each of the consumers (primary, secondary and tertiary). Whenever an organism eats another, not all the energy is transferred but only about 10% of the energy of a producer is transferred to the consumer that eats it. This leads to progressive loss of energy at each level of a food chain. 6. This is known as ‘Pyramid of energy’. Similarly, by counting the number of producers and consumers at each trophic level in an area or ecosystem we can draw the ‘Pyramid of numbers’.

Living organisms manipulate (handle in an unfair way) the constituents of earth: air, water and soil. All human environmental problems have their roots in fundamental principles of ecology. An ecological crisis can cause extinction and well-being of the remaining individuals. Technology and population growth are worsening the situation day by day.
