Please fill in the information below. NAME EMAIL PHONE NUMBER 1. A representation of interconnected food chains that show more complex feeding relationships between producers, consumers, and decomposers. Biodiversity Food Web Ecology Limiting Factor 2. The following examples are all parts of a forest ecosystem. The biotic factor among these examples would be…. Air carrying a skunk’s odor Bacteria on a decaying log Sunlight drying wet tree leaves. Water wetting sand 3. Ecology is the study of the: Abiotic parts of the environment, such as climate, air, and soil. Interactions between organisms. Biotic parts of the environment, such as animals and plants. . Interactions between organisms as well as the interactions between organisms and their environment 4. Space where an organism lives and the role an organism plays within its ecosystem is referred to as a: Sampling Community Niche Population 5. A group of organisms of the same species living in a particular area at a particular time Organism Community Population Ecosystem 6. Which of the following two organisms are producers? Plants and consumers. Consumers and phytoplankton. Plants and phytoplankton. Phytoplankton and chlorophyll. 7. Study of how living things interact with one another and the environment. Ecosystem Food Web Ecology Ecological Succession 8. Which of the following is NOT an example of an ecosystem in Michigan? Desert Lake Wetland Forest 9. Choose the phrase that correctly finishes this statement: "A species is..." 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. A group of organisms that can successfully mate with each other and reproduce. 10. A straight line representation that identifies specific feeding relationships between prey and predator. Food Chain Energy Pyramid Food web Succession 11. Which of the following is NOT an abiotic factor? Light intensity. Decomposer Wind Humidity 12. 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? None 10 kJ 100 kJ 1000 kJ 13. When populations share their environment and interact with populations of other species, it is called a: Ecoprovince Community Species Biome 14. Temperature, light, air, water, soil, and climate are all __________ parts of the environment. Living Abiotic Boreal Biotic 15. The part of Earth where life exists Ecologist Ecosystem Bioshpere Community 16. Which of the following is NOT a basic need that must be provided by an organism’s habitat? Shelter and protection Food Water Entertainment 17. For the food web below:What does the praying mantis represent? A secondary consumer. A primary consumer. A tertiary consumer. A producer. 18. All the living things in an environment such as bacteria, plants, and animals. Autotrophs Food Chain Biotic Limiting factors 19. An organism that uses light energy to make its own food. Consumer Parasite Autotroph Host 20. All the different populations that live and interact in an environment. Population Biosphere Niche Community 21. Heterotrophs obtain energy from all of the following except: Autotrophs Solar radiation. Other heterotrophs Herbivores 22. Struggle between organism for the same resources. This keeps the size of a species population in check. Biodiversity Predators Limiting factors Competition 23. 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 A is the predator, paramecium B is the prey. Paramecium B reaches a steady state of growth. Paramecium B is the predator, paramecium A is the prey. The introduction of paramecium B is followed by a decline in the population of paramecium A. 24. 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. Food chains use only a small sampling of organisms. Producers are usually eaten by many different consumers and most consumers are eaten by more than one predator. A food web explains why there are more producers than consumers. 25. A relationship between two species in which both species benefit Symbiosis Commensalism Mutualism Coevolution 1 out of 25 Time is Up! Time's up
