food webs
If we reduce a secondary predator, what will most likely happen to productivity of the ecosystem?
It will go down. (reduced predators means increased primary consumers which then eat more producers resulting in less productivity)
what is one interaction between geosphere and hydrosphere?
Ill judge
what is the main way humans add CO2 to the atmosphere
Burning fossil fuels.
How does carbon leave the atmosphere
photosynthesis. absorbed by water.
what is the suns playoff record vs OKC
0-3
Look at the food web and tell me what the limiting factors for mice?
competition and predation
What are the two spheres involved with carbon movement during photosynthesis?
Atmosphere (CO2) and Biosphere (plants)
what are some ways humans affect the hydrosphere? Think of your posters.
how does carbon enter the biosphere?
Photosynthesis.
what is the largest bird of prey?
Andean condor
If phytoplankton are producers (they do photosynthesis), and plankton eat phytoplankton, and plankton are the primary food source of most secondary predators. What will happen to primary productivity if we increase plankton.
what are the two spheres involved with CO2 being burned by humans.
Biosphere and atmosphere.
what are some ways humans impact the geosphere
Mining, land development, roads, etc.
how does carbon enter the atmosphere. Name two ways.
burning fossil fuels, trees, cellular respiration, volcanoes
If phytoplankton are producers (they do photosynthesis), and plankton eat phytoplankton, and plankton are the primary food source of most secondary predators. What will happen if we eliminate the predators of plankton?
all the phytoplankton will be eaten, reducing the productivity of the whole ecosystem. eventually crashing the ecosystem.
Candy question
What are the two spheres involved with transpiration?
Biosphere and hydrosphere (and atmosphere afterwords)
how have human activities impacted a specific endangered species?
how does CO2 enter the geosphere?
chemical weathering
give one real life example of a trophic cascade?
**Candy question**
Ill grade it. sea star.
