This is the process that plants use to make sugar for food.
What is Photosynthesis?
100
This is an organism that can make its own food.
What is a producer.
100
This is a diagram that combines many food chains.
What is a food web.
100
This is an attempt to preserve or protect an environment from harmful changes..
What is conservation.
100
This is new plants and animals that people may bring into an ecosystem.
What is nonnative species.
200
This is the process by which cells break down sugar to release energy.
What is cellular respiration?
200
This is an organism that cannot make its own food.
What is a consumer.
200
A food chain and a food web will both begin with this.
What is a producer.
200
This is any substance that damages the environment.
What is pollution.
200
This is all of the conditions surrounding an organism.
What is environment.
300
This is what plant cells need to carry out photosynthesis.
What is carbon dioxide, water, and sunlight?
300
This is an organism that gets energy by breaking down waste and dead organisms.
What is a decomposer.
300
The shortest food chain would contain this.
What is a producer and a decomposer.
300
Name something that can cause an ecosystem to change quickly.
What is earthquake, volcano, hurricane, etc...
300
This is the struggle of organisms for the same limited resources.
What is competition.
400
During cellular respiration, organisms give off this.
What is carbon dioxide.
400
Name an example of a producer, consumer and a decomposer.
What is producer-grass....consumer---cow....decomposer----mushroom.
400
Give an example of a food chain. .explain the roles of the organism
What is grass---rabbit----hawk----mushroom. producer---consumer---consumer---decomposer
400
Explain why a nonnative species might grow quickly in a new area.
What is they probably do not have many predators because they are a new species.
400
These are ways that people can protect the environment.
What is conservation and regulation.
500
This is where plants obtain their energy to perform photosynthesis. This is what a plants gives off during photosynthesis.
What is sunlight and oxygen.
500
Explain the difference between a predator and prey. Give an example.
What is a predator is the hunter and the prey is the hunted. an example would be an owl and a mouse.
500
Explain how producers, consumers, and decomposers help an ecosystem.
What is producers make food from sunlight, consumers eat producers and other organisms so that the populations do not get too large, and decomposers break down dead organisms so that they can be used again by other organisms.
500
Explain how the use of pesticides on plants can change a food chain of grasshoppers----lizards---and birds.
What is the grasshoppers that eat the plants will decrease because they do not have food, then the lizards that eats the grasshopper would eventually decrease because the lizards would have more competition for food. Some of the lizards might die. The same would happen to the birds that eat the lizards.
500
This is a long term relationship between two species. Name an example.
What is symbiosis. Examples: eel--cleaner shrimp bees---apple trees worms---dog
