  • A Barnacle attaches itself to a whale and eats  microorganisms as the whale swims. The whale is not harmed and the barnacle is benefitted.

Commensalism

100

This graph has no limiting factors and no carrying capacity

Exponential graph

100

the branch of biology that deals with the relations of organisms to one another and to their physical surroundings.

Emigration decreases or increases the number of a population in an area

Emigration= Exit, so the number would decrease. 

100

limiting factors are apart of this type of graphs

Logistic/ Carrying capacity

200

A tick bites a dog and stays attached. While it’s attached it sucks the dog blood. One benefits the other is harmed.

parasitism

200

This graph shows a population going above carrying capacity then leveling back out because the population could not be maintained. 

Population overshoot

200

In a Boom bust graph these types of animals should show up first to allow predation. 

The Prey

200

On a boom bust graph, this animal is the one who has the greatest number which then may decrease if eaten. 

Prey

Prey must come first because they are what attracts the predators. 

200

when two species fight for the same food

Competition

300

A fish catches a ride on a shark and does no harm but the fish doesn't have to use energy to swim and cleans the shark. A type of symbiotic relationship. 

Mutualism

300

This is also called a predator prey relationship graph.

Boom Bust graph

These two things go hand in hand... if you have to large of a population you have something stopping you and also it controls the number of animals in a certain area. 

Carrying capacity and limiting factors.

A keystone species is

a species on which other species in an ecosystem largely depend, such that if it were removed the ecosystem would change drastically.

300

In your virtual paramecium lab you had two different types of paramecium, this happens when two different species occupy the same niche

One species will die, the other will thrive

Both could technically die as well

400

When a parasitic relationship is occurring the organism that is being negatively effected is called 

The HOST

A prairie dog population is booming and then a disease comes about and wipes out over 90% of their population. This graph is a....?

Population crash graph

400

This type of movement would decrease a population in a certain area, but nothing died!

Emigration 


Exiting animals would decrease a population

400

All invasive species have these things in common. Must give two examples. 

Non-native to an area

Reproduces quickly

caused biological and economic harm



400

The role or function of an organism or species in an ecosystem

Niche

500

Give an example of commensalism, paracitism and mutualism.

Ill decide if you were right. :)

500

I will draw a graph for you, tell me on that graph where the carrying capacity is. 

I will tell you if you are right or not

500

These are two ways that a population can decrease in size

Emigration and high death rate

500

You have 2 minutes to complete an example of mutualism, commensalism and parasitism. 

I will determine if you are correct or not! :) MUAHAHAHAHA!!!

500

A forest fire destroys an ecosystem, this type of succession will occur.

Secondary succession
