4. Global Warming 100 What is the difference between weather and climate? Weather refers to the conditions of a particular day; Climate refers to long- term weather conditions

5. Global Warming 200 Water Carbon Dioxide Ozone Methane Name two of the four different types of greenhouses gases.

6. Global Warming 300 Explain why the four greenhouse gases are referred to as greenhouse gases. They are referred to this way because they cause a similar effect to glass panes in a greenhouse; they keep the sun’s energy held above the earth.

7. Global Warming 400 Identify two natural causes of global warming. 1.Methane gas released by animals 2.Volcanic eruptions releasing gases 3.Changes in solar radiation levels 4.The wobble of the earth

8. Global Warming 500 Explain the greenhouse gas effect using the following terms: High frequency, low frequency, atmosphere, greenhouse gases. High frequency light rays pierce the earth’s atmosphere, warming up the earth. The earth radiates low frequency energy back to the atmosphere, and it is no longer able to escape through the greenhouse gases. This causes a general warming effect on the earth.

9. Food Chains & Webs 100 All food chains must begin with a _______________. Producer

10. Food Chains & Webs 200 An organism that eats a consumer that originally ate a producer is called a ____________ _______________. Secondary Consumer

11. Food Chains & Webs 300 What is the first level of organization of life? What is the last level? The first level is the cell. The final level is the biome.

12. Food Chains & Webs 400 Daily Double Mr. Chapman eats a delicious meal. He has a garden salad and a bald eagle on the side. The bald eagle originally ate a mouse, which originally ate a blade of grass (who knows why). What two trophic levels is Mr. Chapman functioning as? Primary consumer Tertiary consumer

13. Food Chains & Webs 500 90% of all energy is lost between trophic levels as you rise through a food chain. What are two reasons that this occurs? 1.Energy lost by death and decay 2.Energy lost by removal of feces 3.Energy lost by respiration 4.Energy lost by excretion

14. Biomagnification & Population 100 What is the pesticide called that was originally considered a miracle in the 1940’s? DDT

15. Biomagnification & Population 200 In what country did the potato famine occur due to genetically similar potato crops with little pest resistance? Ireland

16. Biomagnification & Population 300 What is the definition of an organic food? List at least two different qualities of organic food. Foods produced without hormones, antibiotics, herbicides, insecticides, chemical fertilizers, genetic modification or germ- killing radiation

17. Biomagnification & Population 400 What temperature and pressure is a substance exposed to when its standard state is determined? 1 atm pressure, 298K or 25C

18. Biomagnification & Population 500 Name the two different types of growth curves, and explain the difference between them. Exponential and Logistic Growth In a logistic growth curve, the population begins to decline as resources run out and the environment can no longer support that many organisms.

19. Biodiversity & Abiotic Factors 100 True of False – in general areas that are more moist have a higher level of biodiversity. True

20. Biodiversity & Abiotic Factors 200 List three abiotic factors that you might encounter in a river ecosystem. Rocks, water, sunlight, carbon dioxide, oxygen, wood, various others.

21. Biodiversity & Abiotic Factors 300 What is the definition of a biotic factor? A living component of an ecosystem.

22. Biodiversity & Abiotic Factors 400 What is the error in the following sentence? “The community of mice that can be supported by the field is represented by this logistic growth curve.” A group of mice would be known as a population.

23. Biodiversity & Abiotic Factors 500 Name the levels of ecological organization from smallest to largest. Cell, Tissue, Organ, Organ System, Organism, Population, Community, Ecosystem, Biome

24. Biogeochemical Cycles 100 Oxygen cycles through an ecosystem. What organisms produce oxygen as a waste product? Plants (producers)

25. Biogeochemical Cycles 200 Respiration is the process of using oxygen to release energy from food. What is a waste product of this process? Carbon dioxide

26. Biogeochemical Cycles 300 Clouds are formed in the water cycle. The process by which clouds are formed by water is called _______________. Condensation

27. Biogeochemical Cycles 400 Name three different forms of carbon that exist in nature. Carbon Dioxide Fossil Fuels Dead Organic Material Bicarbonate

28. Biogeochemical Cycles 500 The process of converting triple-bonded nitrogen into usable nitrogen (ammonia) is called: Nitrogen Fixation
