Ecology Bluff Game

No talking once the game has begun Teacher will ask a question to one team Everyone who thinks they know the answer to the question will QUIETLY stand up – Students are allowed to “bluff” and stand up even if they don’t know the answer The student who answered the previous question will choose the person on the opposite team to answer If the question is answered correctly, the answering team will receive a point for each standing member Bluff Game Rules

What type of water has high dissolved oxygen? (2 qualities) Cold and turbulent water has high dissolved oxygen

What does “turbidity” mean? Turbidity is the measure of how clear the water is High turbidity means the water is cloudy

What is the pH scale and what does it measure? pH measures how acidic something is The scale is 0-14 with 7 as neutral

What causes algae blooms? High nitrogen (from fertilizer) in the water causes algae blooms

What is a macroinvertebrate and why are they important? Macroinvertebrates are visible and have no backbone. They are water insects The more that you find, the healthier the water is

Describe mutualism? Both organisms benefit from the relationship Win/win

Describe commensalism One organism benefits while the other is unaffected Win/neutral

What is carrying capacity? The chart displays the carrying capacity of a population. Which letter shows the carrying capacity on the chart. Carrying capacity is the maximum number of organisms that can survive in an ecosystem. D

What states are in the Chesapeake Bay Watershed? Maryland, Pennsylvania, Virginia, West Virginia, New York, Delaware
