Please fill in the information below. NAME EMAIL PHONE NUMBER 1. The graph below shows the changes in the size of the populations of two different species of paramecia placed in one beaker.What can be concluded from this graph? Paramecium B is the predator, paramecium A is the prey. Paramecium A is the predator, paramecium B is the prey. The introduction of paramecium B is followed by a decline in the population of paramecium A. Paramecium B reaches a steady state of growth. 2. All the trees within a forest would be an example of Community Organism Population Ecosystem 3. A group of organisms of the same species living in a particular area at a particular time Organism Population Community Ecosystem 4. Describes the nonliving part of the environment including water, rocks, light, and temperature Ecology Population Biotic Abiotic 5. The largest percentage of solar energy that penetrates the atmosphere of the Earth is used to Heat the atmosphere and the Earth’s surface. Carry on photosynthesis. Heat and evaporate water. Generate winds. 6. A deer prancing about is an example of a(n) Community Organism Ecosystem Population 7. For the following food chain: seeds à sparrow à owl if there are 100 000 kJ of energy available in the seeds, how many kilojoules are passed on to the owl? 10 kJ 100 kJ None 1000 kJ 8. Which of the following is NOT an example of an ecosystem in Michigan? Lake Wetland Forest Desert 9. A straight line representation that identifies specific feeding relationships between prey and predator. Energy Pyramid Food web Succession Food Chain 10. What is an ecosystem? All the interacting organisms that live in an environment and the abiotic parts of the environment that affect the organisms. The relationship among the biotic parts of the environment. A person who observes and studies the interactions between the biotic and abiotic parts of the environment. The relationship between all the abiotic elements of a pond. 11. A food web is more realistic than a food chain for showing the feeding relationships in ecosystems because: It compares the number of consumers to the number of micro-organisms in an ecosystem. Producers are usually eaten by many different consumers and most consumers are eaten by more than one predator. Food chains use only a small sampling of organisms. A food web explains why there are more producers than consumers. 12. An organism that creates its own food is called: A consumer A decomposer A producer A scavenger 13. Albedo is a measure of the percentage of light that is: Absorbed by an object. Transmitted through the atmosphere. Reflected by an object. Converted into sugar by photosynthesis. 14. A relationship between two organisms in which one organism benefits and the other is unaffected Commensalism Symbiosis Mutualsim Parasilism 15. Another name for heterotroph; An organism that obtains its energy from producers. Scavenger Consumer Decomposer Parasite 16. An environment that provides the things the organism needs to live, grow, and reproduce is called its Habitat Ecosystem Home Niche 17. A subdivision of the environment that includes all living and nonliving portions of the planet. Biosphere Habitat Population Ecological Niche 18. Temperature, light, air, water, soil, and climate are all __________ parts of the environment. Boreal Living Biotic Abiotic 19. When populations share their environment and interact with populations of other species, it is called a: Community Biome Ecoprovince Species 20. A diagram that shows how energy moves through the ecosystem (producer, consumers, decomposer) Food Web Food Chain Ecological Succession Energy Pyramid 21. Choose the phrase that correctly finishes this statement: "A species is..." A group of organisms that can successfully mate with each other and reproduce. Part of the natural decomposing materials in soil A way of describing all the living parts of an ecosystem. A specific part of the abiotic environment. 22. A representation of interconnected food chains that show more complex feeding relationships between producers, consumers, and decomposers. Food Web Limiting Factor Biodiversity Ecology 23. Ecology is the study of the: Biotic parts of the environment, such as animals and plants. . Interactions between organisms. Abiotic parts of the environment, such as climate, air, and soil. Interactions between organisms as well as the interactions between organisms and their environment 24. Nonliving parts of the environment such as soil, water, sunlight. Biotic Abiotic Decomposers Scavenger 25. The following examples are all parts of a forest ecosystem. The biotic factor among these examples would be…. Air carrying a skunk’s odor Sunlight drying wet tree leaves. Bacteria on a decaying log Water wetting sand 1 out of 25 Time is Up! Time's up
