Energy Flow
This is what an arrow in a food chain or web represents.
The movement of energy.
Symbiosis is defined as the close __________ between multiple organisms of the same, or different species.
Relationship
This type of growth pattern resembles a "J".
Exponential Growth
Who was the person credited with coming up with the theory of natural selection?
Charles Darwin
This is the name for all of the combined alleles of of all of the organisms in a given population.
Gene pool
This is where energy is almost every ecosystem comes from.
The sun.
This type of symbiosis is where once organism benefits (+), and the other is unaffected (0).
Commensalism
This type of growth pattern resembles an "S".
Logistic Growth
This is a feature that allows an organism to better survive in its environment.
Adaptation
This type of selection occurs when a population shifts towards one of the extreme ends of a phenotype.
Directional Selection
This is the general percentage of energy that is passed on between trophic levels.
10%
This type of symbiosis is where both organisms benefit from the interaction (+,+).
Mutualism
Carrying Capacity.
This is the measure of the ability of an organism to survive and reproduce in its environment.
Fitness
This type of reproductive isolation occurs when organisms have a difference in mating ritual - song or dance.
Behavioral Isolation
This is the name for levels of consumers in a food chain or web.
Trophic Levels
This type of symbiosis is where one organism benefits (+), and the other organism (the host) is negatively impacted (-).
Parasitism
Factors influencing a population such as availability of food/water/shelter, number of predators, disease, and parasites are examples of what kind of factors?
Density Dependent Limiting Factors
This evidence for evolution shows structures that are similar, but have different functions which show a common ancestor.
Homologous structure
This type of evolution occurs when organisms do NOT have a common ancestor, but end up with similar traits due to their environments.
Convergent evolution
This is the name for a 3rd level top consumer.
Tertiary Consumer
_______________ is defined as an interaction between organisms which both require resources that are limited in supply.
Competition
Factors influencing a population such as floods, hurricanes, tornados, and forest fires are examples of what kind of factors?
Density Independent Limiting Factors
This is the single best way to show relatedness in organisms and evolutionary connections.
DNA/Molecular Evidence
Name the 2 types of genetic drift.
