Apes final 14-28
In the diagram above which letter represents the shortest reservoir of carbon? (17)
(C)
In the diagram above which letter correctly identifies the part of the hydrologic cycle that is most directly affected by impervious building materials? (15)
(D)
In the diagram above which letter represents a carbon source? (16)
(D)
Cellular respiration and how it's measured (19)
Can be measured in the dark this determines the amount of oxygen gas consumed in a period of time
Populations with high genetic diversity and species diversity are able to respond to? (24)
Environmental stressors
theory of island biogeography: (28)
The theory of island biogeography simply says that a larger island will have a greater number of species than a smaller island
How can no till agriculture affect farmland runoff and surrounding waters? (14)
This affects farmland runoff and surrounding waters as no-till increases the amount of water in the soil, decreases erosions, increases the amount and variety of life in and on the soil, and increases herbicide usage.
10% rule (21)
When energy is passed in an ecosystem from one trophic level to the next, only ten percent of the energy will be passed on
Based on the second law of thermodynamics how much biomass of phytoplankton would be needed to produce 1 kg of large fish in the food web? (23)
1,000kg
Which ecosystem most likely experienced a bottle neck? (26)
Ecosystem A
Which ecosystem would most likely recover the fastest from a natural disruption? (25)
Ecosystem B
Know the difference between NPP and GPP (18)
Gross primary production (GPP) is the total rate at which material is produced and net primary production (NPP) is the rate at which material is accumulated in excess of respiration.
Examples of the four types of ecosystem services: (27)
Supporting- The natural processes that maintain other ecosystem services Ex. Soil formation, habitat, nutrient and water cycling Provisioning- Goods or products obtained from the natural world Ex. Food, fuel, raw materials Regulating- an ecosystems control of natural processes Ex. Air quality, climate, Erosion control Cultural- use of natural world for inspiration, recreation, education and spiritual means Ex. Biomimetics, ecotourism, books, films
What is the order of the trophic levels? Examples? (20)
Trophic level 1- Producers Ex. Phytoplankton, algae Trophic level 2- Primary Consumers (herbivores) Ex. Snails, zooplankton Trophic level 3- Secondary Consumers (carnivores) Ex. Most fish, sea stars Trophic level 4- Tertiary Consumers (Secondary carnivores) Ex. Rays, octopus Apex predators- Quaternary Consumers Ex. Tiger shark (can be level 4 or 5)
In the diagram above which trophic level has the least available energy in kilojoules in this food web? (22)
Trophic level 5
