Soil habitat presentation on ecology. Soil as a living environment




"Organism and environmental factors" - Separate environmental factors in natural conditions do not act in isolation, but collectively. After 5-6 hours after the pressure of 1000 atm was removed, sea anemones returned to normal life, after 10-12 hours - starfish. Oligotypes of the listed factors have values ​​below the given values, polytypes - above. For example, the littoral crustaceans Supsinneumsht respond to changes in pressure up to 0.01 atm, which corresponds to a depth difference of 10 cm.

IV. Learning new material.

There is a world hidden from us, inaccessible to direct observation, a kind of world of animals in the soil. There is eternal darkness, you cannot penetrate there without violating the natural structure of the soil. And only a few, accidentally noticed signs show that under the surface of the soil among the roots of plants there is a rich and diverse world of animals. This is sometimes evidenced by mounds above mole burrows, holes in gopher burrows in the steppe or burrows of sand martins in a cliff above a river, heaps of earth on a path thrown out by earthworms, and they themselves, crawling out after rain, as well as masses suddenly appearing literally from under the ground. winged ants or fat larvae of May beetles that come across in the ground.

What is soil?

Soil is the most superficial layer of land on the globe, resulting from changes in rocks under the influence of living and dead organisms (vegetation, animals, microorganisms), solar heat and precipitation. This is an important and complex component of the biosphere, closely related to its other parts.

The depth of the soil layer is different. In some places it is thin, only 3-4 cm, in others it reaches several meters. The soil layer, like a cover, covers the land of our planet. In the same place where rocks come to the surface of our planet, this cover does not exist at all.

To remember what it consists of, you solve the crossword puzzle using page 61 (paragraph 2-3) of the textbook. We work in pairs. 2 minutes

Crossword questions:

A plastic substance that holds water well (clay).
One of the constituent parts of the soil, which is a good baking powder (sand).
A liquid substance necessary for the life and development of plants (water).
Organic mass obtained from the remains of plants and animals, which increases fertility (humus).
Nutrients that are formed from humus under the action of microorganisms (mineral).
A substance that helps plant roots to breathe (air).
Soil liquid matter (water)

Independent work with the textbook. Now try to make a diagram using page 61 (paragraph 2-3) of the textbook. 2 minutes

What determines soil density? fertility?

The number of organisms in the soil is huge. In the soil of central Russia, per 1 m2, you can find up to 1 thousand species of soil inhabitants that differ greatly in number: up to 1 million ticks and springtails, hundreds of centipedes, insect larvae, earthworms, about 50 million roundworms, the number of the simplest ones are even difficult to evaluate.

Ecological groups of soil organisms

According to the degree of connection with the habitat in the soil, three groups are distinguished:

Geobionts - permanent inhabitants of the soil (earthworms), many primary wingless insects), from mammals, moles, mole rats.

Geophiles are animals in which part of the development cycle takes place in a different environment, and part in the soil. These are the majority of flying insects (locusts, beetles, centipede mosquitoes, bears, many butterflies). Some go through the larval phase in the soil, while others go through the pupal phase.

Geoxens are animals that occasionally visit the soil as cover or shelter. These include all mammals living in burrows, many insects (cockroaches, hemipterans, some species of beetles).

  • Soil is the most superficial layer of land on the globe, resulting from changes in rocks under the influence of living and dead organisms (vegetation, animals, microorganisms), solar heat and precipitation. This is an important and complex component of the biosphere, closely related to its other parts.

If the soil is cut like a pie, it is made up of layers.

Look at the drawing in textbook 1.11 and name these.


Independent work with the textbook. Look at Figure 1.11(b). What is the composition of the soil? Read the textbook subtitle "Soil Composition" page 26 and try chart


  • The soil consists of solid particles (mineral and organic substances), it always contains moisture, air and living organisms.
  • Soil minerals - it is clay, sand, water with salts dissolved in it. Depending on the content of clay particles, there are sandy, sandy, loamy And clayey soil. They differ in their properties.

  • Soils in swamps are highly moistened, in deserts they are dry, and in meadows and oak forests the soils are moderately moistened.

Air in soil

  • changes as a result of vital activity of soil microorganisms, animals and plants. In him more water vapor , less oxygen (7-12%) and more carbon dioxide (0,2-8%).
  • Soil air also contains gases that are formed during rotting remains of animals and plants, hydrogen sulfide, ammonia, methane (marsh gas).

Soil organic matter

  • These are mainly undecomposed, semi-decomposed solid remains of plants and animals, as well as humus, or humus .
  • Humus located in the surface layer of the soil. It gives it a dark color. Microorganisms convert humus into mineral salts. That's why humus serves as a kind of reserve of mineral salts in the soil. The more humus, the more fertile the soil. There is little humus in podzolic soils and in desert gray soils(1-3%). richest in humus chernozem soils(7-12%). The founder of Russian soil science V.V. Dokuchaev considered chernozems to be the main wealth of the country and called chernozems "the king of soils".
  • Substances contained in humus, together with plant roots and some other substances, create a certain structure: lumpy, nutty, granular and others. Soils with a well-defined structure are more fertile.

Alive organisms

  • For many organisms, soil is a habitat. It is inhabited microorganisms (bacteria, fungi, algae, protozoa), small invertebrates (earthworms, beetle larvae, mole cricket etc.), as well as large vertebrates (moles, moles and etc.).
  • In the soil are living underground parts of plants - roots, rhizomes, stolons, bulbs, tubers, and spores, fruits and seeds .
  • Quantity in soil most microorganisms, among which dominated by bacteria. In one gram of soil there can be hundreds of millions, and sometimes billions of microorganisms! Not surprisingly, they quickly decompose soil organic matter. But for their vital activity, a sufficient amount of heat, moisture and oxygen is necessary.

"Animal world of the soil"


Habitat Habitat is the place where a given species of animal or plant lives. The habitat provides the species with everything it needs to survive, such as food, water, shelter from predators. There are many thousands of different habitats in the world, including grasslands, swamps, forests, deserts, rivers, lakes, and oceans.

Soil Environment The soil environment is home to a variety of bacteria and protozoa. There are also myceliums of mushrooms, roots of plants. The soil was also inhabited by a variety of animals - worms, insects adapted to digging animals, such as moles. The inhabitants of the soil find in this environment the necessary conditions for them.

The soil was also inhabited by a variety of animals - worms, insects adapted to digging animals, such as moles. The inhabitants of the soil find in this environment the necessary conditions for them.










Living in the soil environment leads to the fact that different living organisms have similar adaptations. The limbs are adapted for digging (flat with large claws). Powerful front teeth (for digging and biting roots). Weakly developed eyes and ears. The body is oval with a short neck and a short tail (for easy movement through underground passages). Short fur (for less friction with the soil). The special structure of the mouth (so that the earth does not fall). Articular body (promotes movement in the soil). Mucus secretion (promotes movement in the soil).







Which animals are useful for the soil environment Animals that are useful for the soil environment, for example: springtails, earthworms. Animals that are useful for the soil environment, for example: springtails, earthworms. Springtails do an important job. They eat and break in dead plants and, thus, participate in the formation of the soil. Springtails do an important job. They eat and break in dead plants and, thus, participate in the formation of the soil. The mucus secreted by worms contains nitrogen. Nitrogen is an essential nutrient for plants. The sticky slime helps keep soil particles together, which contributes to good soil structure. The mucus secreted by worms contains nitrogen. Nitrogen is an essential nutrient for plants.
