Save the Pine Barrens!

Some of the plants in the Pine Barrens are: the Trident Red Maple, the Shortleaf Pine, the Pitch Pine, and the Grass Pink, and Mountain Laurel. If we don't save the Pine Barrens, we won't have wildlife, clean air, or be able to go camping, or canoeing. This ecosystem supports our society in so many ways, including the ones listed above. Many industries are supported by the Pine Barrens such as: paper plants, furniture companies, and many factories. All of the information and pictures in this video was collected on the following various websites: pinelandsalliance.org, njconservation.org, whoyoucallingaskeptic.wordpress.com, biodiversity.wku.edu, wild-life-rehab.com, naturalmissouri.blogspot.com, firstpeople.us.com, dnrstate.md.us.com, state.nj.us.com, porkyfarm.com, and duke.edu.com. Take what you learned in this video seriously, and thank you for watching.

This is a picture of commensialism  between the tree and the ivy hanging on the branches. The ivy gets sunlight by hanging on the tree's branches. The ivy doesn't affect the tree's growth or sunlight supply. Also, the ivy is full of tick like bugs (chiggers) that hang on to animals. That is why this is a symbiotic relationship.

This is a tree in my front yard, and it is a limiting biotic factor. A tree grows tall and wide so it gets more sunlight, and water. The plants underneath the tree don't get as much sunlight and water as the tree on top of it. That is why the tree is a limiting biotic factor.
