Across
  1. 3. one living thing
  2. 4. both species benefit from the relationship
  3. 6. one species benefits, the other is neither helped nor harmed
  4. 8. all of the living and non living things that interact in a n area
  5. 10. all the members of one species living in an area
  6. 11. eats both plants and animals
  7. 12. recycles dead organisms and their wastes
  8. 14. occurs after a volcanic eruption, starts with mosses and lichens and changes into grass

Down
  1. 1. eats a herbivore
  2. 2. mix of sand, silt, and clay, Drains quickly but holds some water, good for plants
  3. 5. must eat something for energy
  4. 6. all of the different populations living in an area (no abiotic factors)
  5. 7. occurs after a forest fire (where soil is left)
  6. 9. smaller, packed together, particles keep it from draining, drowns plants because it absorbs to much water
  7. 13. makes its own food
  8. 15. eats dead animals
  9. 17. larger particles allow it to drain quicker, dries out quickly
  10. 18. eats plants
  11. 19. the variety of life(or species) on earth
  12. 21. eats only plants
  13. 23. living or once living
  14. 25. a close relationship between species that benefits at least one of the species
  15. 26. an environmental factor that is not alive, never lived, and was not part of something living
