Across
  1. 1. a subcategory of parasitism in which the parasite lives in external openings of the host (like the mouth or ears)
  2. 5. a complex diagram that shows many feeding relationships in one ecosystem / community.
  3. 8. an organism that gets its energy by eating a primary consumer
  4. 11. a type of "micropredation" in which an animal eats all or part of a plant
  5. 12. energy stored in the mass of a living thing
  6. 14. an organism on which another lives
  7. 15. an organism that makes its own food (usually by photosynthesis)
  8. 17. competition between two members of different species.
  9. 21. a type of mutualism in which one organism performs an action and the other provides a physical material (like food or a shelter space)
  10. 22. the general term for any close relationship between two organisms that live together for an extended period of time.
  11. 24. competition between two members of the same species.
  12. 26. resource competition that is sometimes called "the contest" in which two individuals directly work against each other for a resource.
  13. 28. all species living in the same place and interacting with each other.
  14. 29. a subcategory of symbiosis in which one organism permanently lives in or on another individual without any real harm or benefit for the "home" individual.
  15. 32. an organism that gets its energy by eating plants and animals (and possibly other things too)
  16. 33. a symbiosis in which one species inhibits / harms / kills another without any real immediate benefit for itself
  17. 34. a subcategory of mutualism in which one or both of the organisms cannot survive without the other
  18. 35. a series of organisms that are linked to each other by a feeding relationship.
  19. 36. a subcategory of parasitism in which the parasite lives inside the host (blood, muscles, intestine, etc.)
Down
  1. 2. a subcategory of symbiosis in which one organism eats the fruit of another and transports its seeds to a new location by its feces.
  2. 3. The name in a food chain or food web of an organism that gets its energy by eating a producer.
  3. 4. resource competition that is sometimes called "the scramble" in which two organisms use up a shared resource without directly interacting.
  4. 6. a subcategory of parasitism in which the parasite burrows its way out of the host, often causing death (mostly occurs in insects)
  5. 7. a subcategory of symbiosis in which one organism produces a chemical (antibiotic) that kills another (usually a bacteria)
  6. 9. an organism that eats a tertiary consumer (or has four arrows between it and a plant)
  7. 10. an organism that eats another organism
  8. 13. a form of symbiosis in which both organisms benefit by living with the other
  9. 16. a type of mutualism in which both organisms perform an action for each other
  10. 18. a subcategory of parasitism in which the parasite lives on the outside of the host (skin, hair, etc.)
  11. 19. a subcategory of symbiosis in which one plant produces a chemical that slows the growth or kills other plants around it with no meaningful benefit for itself
  12. 20. a form of symbiosis in which one organism benefits by harming the other (without killing it immediately)
  13. 23. a subcategory of symbiosis in which one organism uses another for free transportation without harming or helping the organism that moves it
  14. 25. an interaction between individuals brought about by the need for the same limited resource which reduces the survivorship of both individuals.
  15. 27. an organism that eats a secondary consumer (or has three arrows between it and a plant)
  16. 28. a symbiosis between two organisms in which one benefits and the other experiences no effect.
  17. 30. the process by which plants and some protists obtain energy by making sugar using the suns energy
  18. 31. a type of interaction in which one organism kills and consumers another for its energy
