12 A group of salmon swimming in a river would be an example of a(n): Population Organism Community Ecosystem habitat
14
13 Solar energy flowing through the biosphere does all of the following EXCEPT: Warms the atmosphere Evaporates water Generates winds Neutralizes carbon gas Supports plant growth
15
Most of the solar radiation that passes through the atmosphere:
14 Most of the solar radiation that passes through the atmosphere: Is degraded into longer wavelength infrared radiation Is converted to gamma radiation Is deflected off hard surfaces Is absorbed by the ozone Is absorbed by organisms
16
15 Which of the following is NOT true regarding the Greenhouse Effect (GHE): The GHE is vital to continued life on Earth as we know it The GHE helps warm the troposphere IT is caused by the interaction of gaseous molecules that are excited by infrared radiation It is based on the potential energy of the molecules in the air It can be affected by the concentration of the atmospheric gases
17
Which of the following is a limiting factor for a grassland biome?
16 Which of the following is a limiting factor for a grassland biome? Number of species Species of the grass Size of the population Number of organisms Amount of precipitation
18
17 Which of the following is a correctly diagramed food chain:
Plankton – filter feeding clam— octopus—shark Hawk—snake—mouse—grass Scavenging vulture—oak tree— squirrel—fungi apple tree—worm—salmon— plankton Crocodile—antelope—lion--vulture
19
18 The % of usable energy transferred as biomass from one trophic level to another is known as: Energy flow Gross primary productivity Ecological efficiency Biological diversity Range of tolerance
20
19 All of the following are true of Net Primary Productivity (NPP) except: The rate at which an ecosystem’s producers can convert solar energy into biomass is used in determining it The chemical energy which is available in producer’s biomass for consumers is used in determining it It is higher in certain biomes receiving more solar radiation, like those found closer to the equator It is higher in certain aquatic life zones in which the limiting factor of nutrients are available It gives scientists information about the energy availability to support food webs in a given ecosystem
21
20 Which cycle depends on the work of specialized bacteria for several conversions? Hydrologic Nitrogen Carbon Phosphorus sulfur
22
21 Which cycle have human disrupted by burning coal and extracting metals from rock that contain large amounts of this element? Hydrologic Nitrogen Carbon Phosphorus sulfur

22 Ecologists utilize GIS (geographic information systems)to:
Develop mathematical and other models to simulate ecosystems Critique their observations Collect, overlay, and display data from various sources revealing composite effects within systems Replace field and laboratory investigations Take soil samples remotely
24
23 Generalized pyramid energy flow has only a 10% efficiency, while 90% of the energy is lost to the environment as heat. This phenomenon is explain by: Law of limiting factors Law of conservation of matter The food web corollary The greenhouse effect Second law of thermodynamics
