Lionfish are an invasive species found in the intercoastal waters of much of the Southeastern USA. How would these invasive species affect the food chain of their non-native environment?
What is they would increase competition and outcompete native species?
300
What macromolecule is produced when plants combine many glucose monomers together?
Starch

What step of cellular respiration produces the most ATP energy for cells?
What is the Electron Transport Chain?

Scientists observed increasing global temperatures alongside rising atmospheric CO₂ levels largely caused by this human activity. What specific human activity could have caused this?
What is Burning fossil fuels?
300
If a primary producer has 6,700 kcals of energy, how much energy would the secondary consumer have?
What is 67 kcals?

Which of the 4 spheres of the carbon cycle does the process of human driven climate change affect?
What is the Biosphere, Hydrosphere, Geosphere/Lithosphere and the Atmosphere?

In a classroom experiment, bromothymol blue (BTB) changes from yellow back to blue after a plant is placed in light. This color change shows the plant is removing this substance from the solution during photosynthesis.
What is Carbon Dioxide?
400
What is the equation for cellular respiration?
C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6H2O + 6CO2+ 38ATP
400
What process of releasing carbon dioxide back into the atmosphere is #2 referencing?
What is Decomposition?

What are the 4 main ways in which humans negatively impact our environment?
What is Habitat Destruction, Pollution, Overexploitation, Introducing invasive species?
500
Label A, B, C and D
A= water B= oxygen C= carbon dioxide
D= glucose

A student conducted an experiment by adding yeast, sugar and water into a flask and covering it with a balloon. What process is taking place in this experiment and what is causing the balloons to inflate?
Anaerobic Respiration/Fermentation and CO2
500
Oceans are Earth’s biggest carbon sink. As atmospheric CO2 continues to increase, the ocean absorbs more CO2, and produces this molecule which can dissolve shells of organisms and bleach coral.
What is Carbonic Acid?

Scientists introduced 100 male and 100 female lizards to an island that was not yet inhabited by lizards. The island had habitats and food sources that supported the lizards' survival, but these resources were limited. The island also lacked any natural predators of the lizards. Which graph best predicts the growth of the lizard population over 75 years on the island?

By removing essential food sources and nesting areas, habitat destruction can cause species to become endangered. Which human activities could increase the risk of species endangerment by contributing to habitat loss?
What are various answers?
