Hydrilla is an invasive aquatic plant with an extremely high growth rate. It can grow up to 2.5 cm per day. Hydrilla has the same access to resources needed to carry out photosynthesis as native plants such as pondweed.
These autotrophs compete for this limited resource.

What is a space, sunlight or carbon dioxide?
Something that controls population growth
What is a limiting factor?
The type of organism found in level A if this pyramid
What is producer or autotroph?
What is the source of the energy in this food web?

What is the sun?
What is the ultimate driver of all life on Earth?
The Sun
A non-native organism that has nor natural predator and out-competes native organisms.
What is an Invasive Species?
The flying carp is a foreign fish that has been introduced by humans into American rivers. These fish feed on native fish populations and some of the same food sources as many native fish populations.
This is one relationship that exists between the flying carp and the native fish population.
What is competition or predator prey?
The maximum number of individuals that an environment can support
What is carrying capacity?
This type of organism is found in level C of the energy pyramid
What is carnivore, secondary consumer, 2nd order heterotroph?
The producer in this food web

What is algae?
The mushroom on this log is this type of organism

What is decomposer?
How deforestation may contribute to global warming.
What is less trees to absorb CO2 during photosynthesis?
The relationship between Tree diameter and amount of carbon sequestered (stored).

What is a direct relationship? As diameter increases the carbon amount increases
What is increases?
This much energy is transferred between organisms in different trophic levels of the pyramid
What is 10%?
The arrows in this food web represent in this 
What is the flow of energy?
The process by which the mix of species and habitat in an area changes over time.
What is ecological succession?
To take a species out of it's environment for resources to directly support our population.
What is the direct harvesting?
The type of relationship in displayed in this graph
What is predator prey?
The carrying capacity of this population

What is 2000?
It is the remaining 90% energy not passed on to the next trophic level
What is heat?
These 2 secondary consumers compete for food
What is snake and eagle?
Two raw materials of photosynthesis
When gases in Earth's atmosphere, such as CO2 and methane, trap the Sun's heat.

What is the greenhouse effect?
These interdependent populations increase and decrease over time depending on the number of each species present. The lynx population is lower than the rabbit because_________________________

Higher up on the trophic pyramid

The effect these limiting factors will have on the carrying capacity of this pond
What is decrease total population?

If trophic level A has 50,000 kCal of energy, then Level D has _______________kCal
What is 50?
This will happen to the scorpion population when the small lizard population decreases


What is increases?
The reason these two birds don't compete

What is they occupy a different niche?
Biofuels are a promising renewable energy source and climate-smart alternative to fossil fuels. However, biofuels can negatively impact the environment and biodiversity , due to land-use changes such as deforestation and the use of fertilizers and pesticides. This comprise is considered a _____________________.
What is a trade-off?
