Interdependence of Life

Interdependence of Life explores the interactions between organisms and the environments in which they live—Earth spheres, ecosystems, abiotic factors, biotic factors, populations characteristics, limiting factors, and carrying capacity—as well as species relationships. This Interactive E-book* examines, and demonstrates, the delicate balance that is kept by the organisms in these regions, not just from the perspective of the natural world, but based on human interactions and interference as well. The result is a representation of the rich tapestry of life that covers planet Earth.

*Interactive E-books are highly interactive, self-directed learning experiences designed to augment understanding of science content and pedagogy. These e-books include high-resolution images, animations, videos and interactive simulations.​

NSTA Press produces classroom-ready activities, hands-on approaches to inquiry, relevant professional development, the latest scientific education news and research, assessment and standards-based instruction.
