What is a apex predator.

The consumer after a producer has to be a herbivore or it is a secondary consumer.
Pollution can cause harm to the ______
-air, land, water, all of the above
All of the above
What would happen if the population of predators decreases?
prey population increases
Do biomes with the same name have the same ecosystems?
No, not every biome with the same name has the same ecosystem
ex: Gobi Desert and Sahara Desert
(both are desert but with completely different ecosystems)
What animal is at the highest of the food chain in the world. A.Killer whales B.Sharks C.Shrimp D.Whale
A. Killer whales are apex predators, their species overall dominate all other species, excluding humanity.
What is the minimum stage of a omnivore(Animal that eats both meat and plantations) EX: primary, secondary, tertiary.
Hint: It is always above producers.
Omnivores would be above secondary consumers.
Which of the following is a finite resource? - natural gas, solar energy, wind energy, fossil fuels, Biomass. there is 2 answers.
Fossil Fuels and Natural gas
what happens to prey population when prey dies out
The predator would eventually starve and its species either dies out or changes location.
Do ecosystem temperatures have an impact on trees and animals? Explain.
Yes, they do have an impact on the ecosystem's temperature as they change frequently to have an impact on the types of plants that may grow there, for example, animals that rely on plants for food and shelter must evolve with the times, and relocate to another ecosystem.
Which finite resource is the most used, Oil, coal, Natural gas, nuclear fuel.
The most used is oil.
What makes a food web different from a food chain.
Food webs have multiple predators that scale differently, sometimes theres end points on them. While the food cycle goes in one direction, food chains also sometimes repeat in a circle while food webs never return.
List at least 4 ways humans effect the ecosystems negatively.
- Climate change
- Ocean acidification
- Habitat loss
- Eutrophication
- Stormwater runoff
- Air pollution
- Contaminants
- Invasive species
How do predators and prey populations stay balanced?
when the population of predators are high and the population of prey is low the predators die out. when the population of predators are low the prey population become high keeping balance
