What are three earth cycles that we conducted labs on?
Carbon Cycle, Nitrogen Cycle, Water Cycle
100
These living organisms are biological indicators of water quality
Benthic Macroinvertebrates
100
Compound
100
The part of the experiment that you are testing and intentionally change
Independent Variable
200
A non-living factor in an ecosystem
Abiotic
200
Photosynthesis, Respiration, Decay, Animal Waste, Auto and Factory Emissions are part of this
Carbon Cycle
200
The three different groups of stream macroinvertebrates
Sensitive, Somewhat Sensitive, Tolerant
200
alternate
200
The color of the solution or amount of CO2 in the test tube during the elodea lab
Dependant Variable
300
A Living Factor in an Ecosystem
Biotic
300
Fixation, Assimilation, Ammonification are all parts of this
Nitrogen Cycle
300
Algae Blooms can be a result of too much of these two things found in fertilizers and animal waste
Nitrate or Phosphate

4 physical characteristics to identify leaves
Broad-needle, simple- compound, alternate-opposite, toothed-smooth, lobed-not lobed etc...

Your pupil constricting when exposed to light is an example
respond to stimuli (environment)

A drainage pipe or smokestack from a factory is a good example

What happens during photosynthesis? Be Specific!
Plants take in Carbon Dioxide and water and use Energy from the Sun to create Glucose and release Oxygen
500
The area of land that drains into a certain body of water
Watershed

The tool we used to identify living organisms by their characteristics
Dichotomous Key

Bromothymol Blue(BTB) was used for this during the elodea lab
An Indicator OR To see if Carbon Dioxide was added or removed from the water or if photosynthesis or respiration had occurred
