Final Answer:
1) A non-living thing in an ecosystem is sunlight.
2) The three life processes are: getting energy (eating or making food), growing and moving, and releasing waste.
3) Population means all the individuals of one species living in a community (e.g., all the tree frogs in a pond).
4) An organism lives where it can get what it needs to survive — food, water, shelter, and suitable temperature.
5) A temperate zone supports many varieties of organisms because it has moderate temperatures and enough rain, so different kinds of plants and animals can live there.
