Question 1: What are key characteristic of aquatic biomes?

Answer:

Temperature, Salinity, Depth and Nutrient availability

Question 2: what represents a carbon source?

Answer:

Animal respiration and Fossil fuel combustion Question 3: Why is each level of a trophic pyramid smaller that the level below it?

Answer:

Energy is lost as heat as it transfers up each trophic level / there is less biomass at each trophic level compared to the one below Question 4: Why does the phosphorus cycle move more slowly than carbon, water, and nitrogen?

Answer:

Phosphorus has no gaseous phase where a Carbon, Nitrogen and Water all have gas phases.

Question 5: What is the primary cause for changes in biome distribution on earth?

Answer:

Global climate change

Question 6: Notrogen fixation

Answer:

Converts nitrogen gas into a organic molecule that is useable by plants / can be carried out by bacteria in the root nodules of legumes / converts N2 gas from the atmosphere into ammonium (NH4)

Question 7: What is the largest Nitrogen reservoir?

Answer:

The atmosphere Question 8: Which of the following provides the correct formula for calculating primary productivity?

Answer:

NPP = GPP - Respiration Question 9: A mixture of salt and freshwater where a large river empties into an ocean or sea

Answer:

Estuary Question 10: How much energy is transferred from the producer level of a trophic level of a trophic pyramid to the secondary consumer level?

Answer:

1.0%

Question 11: That is an example of regulating ecosystem service?

Answer:

Wetlands filtering pollutants from rainwater / Trees removing CO2 from the atmosphere reducing global warming from CC

Question 12: What represents carbon sequestration?

Answer:

Photosynthesis

Question 13: Which of the following is NOT one of the three levels of biodiversity?

• Species
• Ecosystem
• Genetic
• Richness

Answer:

Richness Question 14: True or False: Nitrogen generally spends less time in its reservoirs than carbon or phosphorus

Answer:

True

Question 15: What do the arrows in a food web indicate?

Answer:

Transfer of energy Question 16: What is the role of photosynthesis and cellular respiration in the carbon cycle?

Answer:

Photosynthesis removes Carbon from the Atmosphere and respiration adds carbon to the atmosphere

Question 17: What is true about genetic diversity and environmental disruption?

Answer:

Genetic diversity makes populations more resistance to environmental disturbance

Question 18: Which of the following is NOT a carbon sink?

Answer:

The atmosphere Question 19: True or False: Rocks and sediments made up of phosphorus counting minerals are the primary reservoirs in the P cycle

Answer:

True

Question 20: UNIT 2

Answer:

UNIT 2

Question 21: What is the largest reservoir in the hydraulic cycle?

Answer:

Oceans

Question 22: How does species richness relate to ecosystem resilience?

Answer:

High species richness = high resilience Question 23: True or False: Habitat loss impacts generalist species more than specialist species?

Answer:

False: Generalist species fewer habitat needs and are more tolerant of change

Question 24: Which of the following is NOT an example of resource partitioning?

Answer:

Robins spreading out and hunting for worm in different parts of a field.

Question 25: Which of the following is NOT an example of symbiosis?

Answer:

Coyotes eating a dear carcass from a wolf kill after the wolf has finished

Question 26: What represents primary productivity?

Answer:

The amount of plant biomass added to given area in a period of time / The rate of photosynthesis in a given area in a given period of time
