Factors affecting the distribution of organisms: JAMB Biology Past Questions and Answers
What the JAMB syllabus covers in Factors affecting the distribution of organisms
Our summary: The non-living and living factors that decide where organisms live, and how to measure them.
- Abiotic
- Biotic
Objectives
- relate the effects of temperature, rainfall, relative humidity, wind speed and direction, altitude, salinity, turbidity, pH and edaphic (soil) conditions on the distribution of organisms.
- use appropriate equipment (secchi disc, thermometer, rain gauge) to measure abiotic factors.
- describe how the activities of plants/animals (particularly human) affect the distribution of organisms.
