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? 1000 kJ 10 kJ 100 kJ None 2. A group of organisms of the same species living in a particular area at a particular time Organism Population Community Ecosystem 3. Describes the nonliving part of the environment including water, rocks, light, and temperature Abiotic Ecology Population Biotic 4. Albedo is a measure of the percentage of light that is: Transmitted through the atmosphere. Reflected by an object. Converted into sugar by photosynthesis. Absorbed by an object. 5. An environment that provides the things the organism needs to live, grow, and reproduce is called its Niche Habitat Ecosystem Home 6. A relationship between two species in which both species benefit Commensalism Symbiosis Coevolution Mutualism 7. A diagram that shows how energy moves through the ecosystem (producer, consumers, decomposer) Energy Pyramid Food Chain Food Web Ecological Succession 8. What is an ecosystem? The relationship among the biotic parts of the environment. All the interacting organisms that live in an environment and the abiotic parts of the environment that affect the organisms. 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. 9. Ecology is the study of the: Interactions between organisms as well as the interactions between organisms and their environment Biotic parts of the environment, such as animals and plants. . Interactions between organisms. Abiotic parts of the environment, such as climate, air, and soil. 10. A straight line representation that identifies specific feeding relationships between prey and predator. Energy Pyramid Succession Food web Food Chain 11. The following examples are all parts of a forest ecosystem. The biotic factor among these examples would be…. Sunlight drying wet tree leaves. Air carrying a skunk’s odor Bacteria on a decaying log Water wetting sand 12. A relationship in which two different organisms live in close association with each other Coevolution Commensalism Mutualism Symbiosis 13. All the living things in an environment such as bacteria, plants, and animals. Food Chain Limiting factors Autotrophs Biotic 14. 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. A food web explains why there are more producers than consumers. Food chains use only a small sampling of organisms. 15. 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? The introduction of paramecium B is followed by a decline in the population of paramecium A. 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. 16. A representation of interconnected food chains that show more complex feeding relationships between producers, consumers, and decomposers. Food Web Biodiversity Ecology Limiting Factor 17. A subdivision of the environment that includes all living and nonliving portions of the planet. Biosphere Habitat Ecological Niche Population 18. A deer prancing about is an example of a(n) Organism Population Community Ecosystem 19. For the food web below:What does the praying mantis represent? A producer. A secondary consumer. A primary consumer. A tertiary consumer. 20. The part of Earth where life exists Ecologist Community Bioshpere Ecosystem 21. Which of the following sequences goes from the simplest level to the most complex? Population, ecosystem, community Community, ecosystem, population Population, community, ecosystem Community, population, ecosystem 22. Space where an organism lives and the role an organism plays within its ecosystem is referred to as a: Population Community Niche Sampling 23. A consumer is: An organism that does not need food to survive. An organism that cannot produce its own food. An organism that produces its own food. An abiotic organism. 24. The largest percentage of solar energy that penetrates the atmosphere of the Earth is used to Heat the atmosphere and the Earth’s surface. Heat and evaporate water. Carry on photosynthesis. Generate winds. 25. A species of plant or animal that is facing imminent extinction or extirpation is said to be Endangered Extirpated Threatened Extinct 1 out of 25 Time is Up! Time's up
