6 This is the place where water is stored underground A 100

7 What is an aquifer? A 100

8 This law requires wastewater to be clean enough for fishing and/or swimming A 200

9 What is the Clean Water Act? A 200

10 This large land area absorbs water and stores all water that does not run off into the ocean A 300

11 What is a watershed? A 300

12 This helps retain water in the soil and prevents it from becoming runoff A 400

13 What is vegetation? A 400

14 This process moves water from the ground through plants, and into the atmosphere A 500

15 What is transpiration? A 500

16 This icky stuff is heat-resistant, was formerly used in vehicles, and causes lung cancer B 100

17 What is asbestos? B 100

18 This icky stuff combines with water vapor to form sulfuric acid rain B 200

19 What is sulfur dioxide? B 200

20 This icky stuff is good 15 miles above the Earth, but bad for air quality at the surface B 300

21 What is ozone? B 300

22 This icky stuff can be cleaned with stack scrubbers in factory smokestacks B 400

23 What are hydrocarbons? B 400

24 This icky stuff is produced as a gas by-product of naturally decaying organic material B 500

25 What is methane? B 500

26 C 100 This occurs when aquatic organisms experience a temperature change of more than 2-3 degrees F

27 What is thermal stress? C 100

28 This substance is thought to account for 50% of the increase in global temperatures by 2020 C 200

29 What is carbon dioxide? C 200

30 Warmer water holds _____ oxygen than cooler water. C 300

31 What is less? C 300

32 DAILY DOUBLE C 400 DAILY DOUBLE Place A Wager

33 These are the two opposing explanations for the current trend in global warming C 400

34 Humans are accelerating the rate of warming with greenhouse gas emissions versus Earth is experiencing a period of warming as part of a natural cycle C 400

35 This term is used to describe the trapping of heat from the sun beneath Earth’s atmosphere C 500

36 What is the greenhouse effect? C 500

37 This colorless, odorless gas can seep into homes built over contaminated areas D 100

38 What is radon? D 100

39 Water is abundant on Earth, but most is not potable because it is this type of water D 200

40 What is saltwater? D 200

41 These pollutants decrease air quality by causing a “hole” in the ozone layer D 300

42 What are CFCs? D 300

43 Water quality decreases for aquatic organisms when this nutrient is low D 400

44 What is oxygen? D 400

45 This process, performed mostly by bacteria and fungi, reduces oxygen availability in the water D 500

46 What is decay of organic matter? D 500

47 These rays cause skin damage and cancer due to overexposure to the sun E 100

48 What are ultraviolet rays? E 100

49 These organisms are used to determine the health of the environment E 200

50 What are indicator species? E 200

51 In England in the 1800s, smoke from factories caused a decline in light-colored moths and an increase in dark moths, a process referred to by Charles Darwin as this E 300

52 What is natural selection? E 300

53 This is the pH range for a basic substance E 400

54 What is greater than 7? E 400

55 Solid particles suspended in water contribute to this, which may block sunlight and decrease photosynthesis in aquatic producers E 500

56 What is turbidity? E 500

57 This is the term for an organism’s position in the food chain F 100

58 What is trophic level? F 100

59 These organisms obtain their energy from algae or aquatic plants F 200

60 What are primary consumers? F 200

61 These organisms are herbivores F 300

62 What are primary consumers? F 300

63 This is the trophic level of a hawk that eats a snake that eats a frog that eats fish that eat algae F 400

64 What is quaternary (4 th level) consumer? F 400

65 This is the trophic level of a big fish that eats smaller fish that eat algae. F 500

66 What is secondary consumer? F 500

67 The Final Jeopardy Category is: AQUATIC COMMUNITIES Please record your wager. Click on screen to begin

68 This concept describes the accumulation of toxic materials in increasingly higher concentrations the higher an organism is in a food chain residing in polluted waters. Click on screen to continue

69 This concept describes the accumulation of toxic materials in increasingly higher concentrations the higher an organism is in a food chain residing in polluted waters.
