Difference between abiotic & biotic factors $100 Question – Energy Difference between abiotic & biotic factors
$100 Answer – Energy Abiotic – non-living factors (soil, water, etc) Biotic – living factors (plants, animals, etc)
Names of the 3 ecological pyramids $200 Question – Energy Names of the 3 ecological pyramids
$200 Answer – Energy Pyramid of energy Pyramid of biomass Pyramid of numbers
Make a simple food web including: $300 Question – Energy Make a simple food web including: Snake Hawk Grasshopper Mice Chickadee Plants (grass)
Chickadee Mice Grasshopper $300 Answer – Energy Snake Hawk Chickadee Mice Grasshopper Plants (grass)
$400 Question – Energy Difference between primary & secondary succession. Example of when each occurs.
$400 Answer – Energy Primary – when no soil; example: after volcanic eruption Secondary – soil remains as do the seeds/spores within it; example: forest fire
Describe primary succession $500 Question – Energy Describe primary succession
$500 Answer – Energy 1. Lichens – acids create soil 2. Simple plants (mosses/ferns) can grow on new soil 3. Simple plants die & add organic matter to soil; soil layer thickens 4. Grasses & wildflowers establish themselves 5. Meadows die & small shrubs/trees can now grow 6. Larger trees & other climax species come in
$100 Question – Population Explain density independent limiting factors & give example
$100 Answer – Population Population growth regardless of size are affected; ex) drought
$200 Question – Population Explain density dependent limiting factors
$200 Answer – Population Most noticable when populations are large; The larger the population, the more they are affected by these limiting factors ex) competition, predation, parasitism, crowding/stress
$300 Question – Population Define carrying capacity
$300 Answer – Population Number of organisms of a particular species that can be supported by the environment
$400 Question – Population Explain an exponential growth curve
Will continue to grow until something stops it $400 Answer – Population Conditions are ideal Growth begins slowly but increases rapidly as more organisms join the population Will continue to grow until something stops it
$500 Question – Population Draw & describe a logistic growth curve
$500 Answer – Population To start, population grows slowly Population grows rapidly Population growth slows down (but is still growing) Population growth slows down even more as it appr0aches carrying capacity Population reaches a steady state
$100 Question – Interactions Difference between interspecific & intraspecific competition
$100 Answer – Interactions Intraspecific – between members of the same species Interspecific – between members of different species
$200 Question – Interactions Draw a predator-prey cyclic growth curve
$200 Answer – Interactions
$300 Question – Interactions List the three types of symbiosis
$300 Answer – Interactions Commensalism Mutualism Parasitism
$400 Question – Interactions Explain parasitism & give example
$400 Answer – Interactions Relationship in which one species benefits & the other is harmed; example: tapeworms
$500 Question – Interactions Explain the difference between commensalism & mutualism. Give examples.
$500 Answer – Interactions Mutualism – relationship in which both species benefit (crocodile & plover) Commensalism – relationship in which one species benefits & other is unaffected (mite & dragonfly)
