An increase in biodiversity means that and ecosystem has an increase in...

what is sustainability?

100

A stable community of plants and animals

what is a climax community?

100

Oceans act like a carbon sink and absorb carbon. If oceans absorb too much carbon it causes this to happen.

What is ocean acidification?

200

The spectral class with the coolest stars

What is red?

200

Used in heat cameras and remote controls

what is infrared?

200

The variety of life in the world or in a particular habitat or ecosystem

what is biodiversity?

200

A type of succession that occurs in an area where no previous ecosystem existes, soil is newly being created and new species begin to populate.

What is primary succession?

200

The likely negative effect  Earth if extra carbon is added to the atmosphere.

What is global warming?

What is Hot, Bright & Large?

300

Lower frequency than infrared

What is Radio Waves?

300

The number of people, other living organisms, or crops that a region can support without environmental degradation

what is carrying capacity?

300
A process started by an event or disturbance (ex: forest fire) that reduces an already established ecosystem to a smaller population of species, with soil remaining

What is secondary succession?

300

Cold air mass moves into a warm air mass, causing it to rise quickly, often seeing thunderstorms, heavy rain, or snow.

What is a cold front?

400

The process occurring in the mantle that is thought to be the force behind plate tectonics

Next phase for a Massive star in the main sequence stage 

What is a Super Giant?

500

Material through which a wave travels

what is a medium?

500

How much energy is retained and transferred  between one level to the next of an energy pyramid.

what is 10%?

500

The first to colonize previously disrupted or damaged ecosystems, beginning a chain of ecological succession that ultimately leads to a more biodiverse steady-state ecosystem.

What is a pioneer species?

500

Two different temperature air masses meet but do not move either out of the way, often seeing extended periods of cloudy, wet weather.

What is a stationary front?
