1. Biodiversity Chapter 5 Jeopardy!
Mrs.Schuckers / Rogic
Make sure to study the study guide, PowerPoints, labs, worksheets, and any discussions we had in class!

2. List the three types of biodiveristy!
Species diversity
Genetic diversity
Ecosystem diversity
List the three types of biodiveristy!

3. List 3 reasons why biodiversity is so important!
1. Economic value to humans
Plants and animals provide us food, clothing, energy, medicine, and shelter
2. Source of desirable genes for the future
ex:  If crops have little genetic diversity and all of them are lacking resistance to disease, disease could wipe them out
Genetic engineering!
3. Medicines come from various plants/organisms

4. Define mass extinction -
Mass extinction: a large percentage of living species going extinct in a relatively short period of time
DINOSAURS!

5. What is overexploitation? Include example!
Overexploitation: Excessive use of species that have economic value
Ex: White rhinoceros = extinct
Hunted for their horns, which were sold for medicinal purposes

6. List 4 natural resources … GO!
All materials and organisms found in the biosphere, including minerals, fossil fuels, nuclear fuels, plants, animals, soil, clean water, clean air, and solar energy.

7. There are 12 blades of grass. Each contain 5 PPM of DDT
There are 12 blades of grass. Each contain 5 PPM of DDT. Each level eats evenly. How much DDT will the hawk consume?
ANSWER = 60 PPM of DDT 6 3 1

8. Which of the following is a direct benefit of biodiversity?
Faster Erosion Rates
Greater amounts of rainfall
Improved Soil Fertility for crops
Decreased Carbon Dioxide emissions

9. If a disturbance were to occur in an ecosystem, which of the following ecosystems would be vulnerable to extinctions?
Island Ecosystem
Continental Ecosystems
Marine Ecosystems
Tropical Ecosystems

12. What is a way we can restore an ecosystem?
Biological Augmentation
Bioremediation
- Using sustainable resources
- Creating reservations and national parks
Etc…

13. What causes eutrophication?
Excess fertilizer

14. Acid rain falls in the form of what types of acid?
Nitric and Sulfuric Acid

15. Which of the following would be most effective in slowing the loss of biodiversity?
freezing fertilized eggs of endangered animals in case the species become extinct in the wild
setting aside small plots of land in a variety of ecosystems, such as forests, grasslands, and marshes
creating large parks/preserves in biodiversity hotspots
requiring every country to maintain a seed bank

16. All of the following are consequences of human pollution except ________.
A. Loss of habitat
B. Eutrophication
C. Invasive species
D. Acid precipitation

17. The extinction rate of terrestrial (land) and freshwater species is currently higher than the extinction rate of marine species. What is the most likely reason for this?
A. Human activities have a greater impact on terrestrial and freshwater ecosystems
B. There are no economic incentives for humans to use ocean resources
C. Marine organisms have had a longer time to adapt to their environment.
D. The oceans have a greater area than land and freshwater ecosystems combined.

18. DDT, Mercury, and PCB’s get stored in the fat of an organism when injested. This is an example of …
Eutrophication
Acid Precipitation
Biomagnification
Bioaccumulation

19. Which of the following organisms would be expected to have the highest concentration of mercury pollution in its tissues?
primary producers such as aquatic plants, phytoplankton, and algae
B. primary consumers, such as zooplankton
C. the tertiary consumers, such as tuna and sharks.
D. the secondary consumers, such as sardines and herring

20. The use of microorganisms to degrade chemical pollutants is called...
Introduced Species
Biological Augmentation
Biomagnification
Bioremediation

21. Which is the renewable energy source?
Burning of coal
Growing of corn
Propane Gas Grill
Solar panels on a house

22. Pharmaceuticals and agriculture products are examples of…..
Direct Economic Value
Indirect Economic Value
Sustainable Use
Habitat Destruction

23. The removing of wolves from Yellowstone National Park caused….
Overexploitation of other species
Destruction of the entire habitat
The habitat to become fragmented
Disruption of the entire habitat

24. Eutrophication is caused by runoff containing nutrients that does what to kill fish in a lake?
Algae overproduce and use all the oxygen, so fish and other organisms die.
Algae overproduce and crowd out fish and other species
Fish overproduce and eat all possible sources of food then starve
Fertilzer is toxic to fish, so they injest it, and die

25. List at least 3 renewable and nonrenewable resources!
Solar energy
Wind energy
Hydropower
Biomass
Geothermal energy
Nonrenewable:
Fossil fuels
Crude Oil
Nuclear fuels (uranium)
Propane
List at least 3 renewable and nonrenewable resources!
