Photosynthesis & Cellular Respiration
What is the energy source involved in the process of photosynthesis?
What is the sun.
Which is a better representation of energy flow through an ecosystem: a food web or a food chain?
What is a food web
This type of relationship occurs when one organism preys on another.
What is predator-prey (or predation)
An organism that eats only plants.
What is an herbivore
A close, long-term relationship between two species that usually involves an exchange of food or energy.
What is symbiosis
Where does cellular respiration take place in a cell?
What is the mitochondria
Grass -----> Grasshopper -----> Mouse -----> Owl
What is the primary producer in this food chain?
What is grass
Tree frogs use trees for protection from the rain. What type of relationship does this model?
What is commensalism
The organelle in which photosynthesis takes place.
What is the chloroplast
This is where life is found on earth (all of earth's ecosystems).
What is the biosphere
The reactants of photosynthesis are sunlight, carbon dioxide and _________.
What is water
Grass -----> Grasshopper -----> Mouse -----> Owl
What is the secondary consumer in this food chain?
What is mouse
Giant tarantulas keep tiny frogs as pets. The frog eats insects that prey on the tarantula's eggs, and in return, the tarantula protects the frogs from predators. What type of relationship is modeled here?
What is mutualism
A simple model that shows how energy moves from the Sun, to a producer, to one or more consumers through feeding relationships.
What is a food chain
All of the organism of one species that live in the same area at the same time.
What is a population
The reactants of cellular respiration are oxygen and __________.
What is glucose
Which organism(s) would not have a source of food if the grasshopper was removed from the food web?
What is the bird and frog
Wasps lay eggs on the backs of caterpillars. When they hatch, the larvae eat the caterpillar. What type of relationship is modeled here?
What is parasitism
A model that shows the amount of energy available in each step of a food chain.
What is an energy pyramid
All living things and non-living things in an area.
What is an ecosystem
One step of cellular respiration, called glycolysis, is where ________ is broken down.
What is glucose (or sugar)
What percentage of energy from the bottom level of the pyramid makes it to the secondary consumers?
What is 1%
What is the only type of relationship that only involves members of a single population?
What is a cooperative relationship
Anything that restricts the size of a population.
What is a limiting factor.
All of the populations of different species that live together in the same area at the same time.
What is a community
