100

The form of carbon that is present in the atmosphere. 

What is carbon dioxide

100

This is the process of water falling from the clouds as rainfall.

What is precipitation

100

This is the formula of nitrogen that is present in the atmosphere and is not able to be used by plants

What is N2

100

This diagram uses only one arrow to show the energy flow through a group of organisms

What is a food chain

100

How much energy is transferred from one trophic level to the next?

What is 10%

200

The process plants use to convert carbon from the atmosphere into glucose using sunlight.

What is photosynthesis.

200

This is the main source of power for the water cycle.

What is the sun.

200

This process by bacteria in the roots allows for atmospheric nitrogen to be used by plants 

What is nitrogen fixation

200

This diagram uses many arrows to show relationships of many organisms in an ecosystem

What is a food web

200

This type of energy transfer occurs through indirect contact.

What is convection.
300
This unrenewable resource is formed from dead matter which has been under pressure beneath the Earth for many years.
What are fossil fuels.
300

This process occurs when water leaves the surface of plant leaves as water vapor

What is transpiration
300

What is the type of nitrogen that can be used by plants?

What are nitrates (NO3-)

300

These are the names which are assigned depending on the process energy is obtain by the organism

What is are producers or consumers

300

This type of energy transfer occurs through direct contact

What is conduction

400

This process occurs in both plants and animals and results in the formation of carbon dioxide and energy. 

What is cellular respiration
400

This type of water stream occurs when there is an overflow of water which allows for water to leave and enter other water systems

What is runoff

400
This occurs when too many nutrients enter a water system which causes overgrowth of algae and other plants.

What is eutrophication

400

This is a species which is very important to an ecosystem and can be identified using a food web.

What is a keystone species

400
This law of thermodynamics is considered to be the messy law
What is the second law of thermodynamics. Entropy.
500

This is a location where a lot of carbon is trapped. An example is the ocean being a carbon sink.

What is a carbon reservoir 

500

These are the steps water takes to go from the ocean, to the clouds, back down to Earth, and then into the ground

What are evaporation, condensation, precipitation, and percolation

500

This type of bacteria in the soil which converts nitrates (NO3-) back to atmospheric nitrogen (N2)

What is denitrifying bacteria
500

Which type of interaction can be seen in  a food web through a relationship between a tertiary consumer and secondary consumer 

What is a predator prey interaction

500

This type of energy production is achieved by using inorganic chemicals to make energy 

What is chemosynthesis
