What does ‘biodiversity’ mean, and why is it so important?

Biodiversity is all the different types of living things living in an ecosystem. It is important to have very high biodiversity (many types of plants and animals, and many of each type) to have a healthy ecosystem. A 500

Give 4 examples of abiotic components of a biosphere.

Sunlight, water, soil, temperature, rock etc B 100

What is the difference between the biosphere and a biome?

The biosphere includes all the biomes The biosphere includes all the biomes. The biosphere is the part of Earth that has living things. A biome is a division of the biosphere. It is a large region with similar biotic and abiotic components. (similar climate, plants and animals) B 200

What type of adaptation is shown here? C 100

Structural Adaptation

What example of a structural adaptation do you see here? Why?

The tree is a cone shape. This protects the branches from breaking when the tree is covered in snow.

What is the difference between a community and a population?

A community includes all the living organisms in an ecosystem A community includes all the living organisms in an ecosystem. (all the trees, grass, bushes, bears, mice, birds, rabbits etc) A population includes only the members of one particular species. (23 rabbits live in the ecosystem) D 300

Why could we call a rotting log or a tidepool an ecosystem?

Both tidepools and rotting logs include communities of plants and animals (biotic components) and also have abiotic components which interact with each other. D 500

What kind of symbiotic relationship is this?

Mutualism E 100

The cuckoo bird lays its eggs in the nest of another bird The cuckoo bird lays its eggs in the nest of another bird. When the egg hatches, this other bird spends its energy to raise the baby cuckoo as its own. What type of relationship is this? E 200

Parasitism E 200

Sea anemones and anemone fish have a symbiotic relationship Sea anemones and anemone fish have a symbiotic relationship. The anemones provide the fish with protection from predators (which cannot tolerate the stings of the anemone's tentacles) and the fish defend the anemones against butterflyfish, which eat anemones. What kind of relationship is this? E 300

Mutualism E 300
