  • oxygen
  • oxygen
  • carbon dioxide

Pregunta 9

Pregunta

Respuesta
  • producer
  • consumer

Pregunta 10

Pregunta
What form of energy is lost by moving from producer to consumer to decomposer in an ecosystem?
Respuesta
  • light
  • heat
  • food energy

Pregunta 11

Pregunta
A [blank_start]producer[blank_end] is a living thing that can make its own food.
Respuesta
  • producer
  • consumer

Pregunta 12

Pregunta
A [blank_start]consumer[blank_end] is a living thing that eats other living things for food and energy.
Respuesta
  • consumer
  • producer

Pregunta 13

Pregunta
How is a food web different from a food chain?
Respuesta
  • Food webs are a group of overlapping food chains in an ecosystem.
  • Food webs include at least one spider as a primary food source.
  • Food chains are more complex than food webs.

Pregunta 14

Pregunta
In a food web or food chain, carnivores are the most plentiful (numerous) member of the ecosystem.
Respuesta
  • True
  • False

Pregunta 15

Pregunta
What is an energy diagram?
Respuesta
  • A diagram that shows how energy moves from one feeding level to the next in the food chain.
  • Alternate forms of energy available to animals in an ecosystem.
  • A diagram which shows how each member of an ecosystem gets its food.

Pregunta 16

Pregunta
Which of the following is true about an energy pyramid? (check all that apply)
Respuesta
  • There are more producers than herbivores or carnivores in the ecosystem.
  • As you move up to the top of the pyramid from producer to consumer, the diagram becomes smaller and smaller to show how less and less energy is available.
  • Energy drops about 10% from each level of the pyramid.

Pregunta 17

Pregunta
[blank_start]Symbiosis[blank_end] is an interaction where two species live together for a long time and at least one of the species benefits.
Respuesta
  • Symbiosis
  • Competition
  • Predator-Prey

Pregunta 18

Pregunta
[blank_start]Competition[blank_end] happens when two or more species depend on the same food source or any limited resource.
Respuesta
  • Competition
  • Symbiosis
  • Predator-prey relationship

Pregunta 19

Respuesta
  • True
  • False

Respuesta
  • population
  • biosphere
  • ecosystem
  • community

Pregunta 22

Pregunta
The change in size of population over time is called its [blank_start]growth rate[blank_end].
Respuesta
  • growth rate
  • community

Pregunta 23

Pregunta
What limits population growth? (check all that apply)
Respuesta
  • The amount of food available.
  • The amount of space available.
  • Competition from different species for food.

Pregunta 24

Pregunta
What is a pollutant?
Respuesta
  • A variable that causes harm to an organism.
  • An invasive species.
  • Competition between two species for the same prey.

Pregunta 25

Pregunta
What often determines how harmful a pollutant is? (check all that apply)
Respuesta
  • The pollutant's ability to cause harm.
  • The amount of pollutant in the air, water, or soil.
  • How long the pollutant stays in the air, water, or soil.

Pregunta 26

Pregunta
Why are toxins heavily concentrated at higher predator levels in the food chain?
Respuesta
  • Because toxins are stored in the fatty tissues of animals and are not passed out of their body. This multiplies as one moves higher up the food chain.
  • Because higher level predators like the taste of toxins.
  • Because only top carnivores store toxins in their body.
