The max. number of organisms an environment can support

El número máximo de organismos que un entorno puede sustentar.

Carrying Capacity

100

A diagram showing the flow of energy throughout an ecosystem displaying only 1 organism from each trophic level.

Un diagrama que muestra el flujo de energía a través de un ecosistema, representando únicamente un organismo de cada nivel trófico.





What is a Food Chain?
100

A change in the DNA sequence

Mutations?

100

Define Natural Selection.

The concept that organisms that are best suited to their environment will survive and reproduce, passing on their traits to the next generation.

100

What organelle houses the DNA of organisms

nucleus

200

The frequency of organisms being births and deaths in a population.

La frecuencia de nacimientos y muertes de organismos en una población.

 

What is Birth Rate and Death Rate?

200

How much energy is passed up the energy pyramid?

¿Cuánta energía se transfiere a través de la pirámide energética?

10%

200

What is gene flow?

Organisms moving from a population of one species to a separate population of the same species, changing the allele frequency or introducing new traits


200

The rapid evolutionary divergence of a species where organisms display different adaptations in response to different selection pressures

What is adaptive radiation?

200

What is the difference between active transport and passive transport?

Active transport requires energy (usually ATP) and passive does not.

300

Biotic or Abiotic things within an environment that minimizes the growth of a population.


Elementos bióticos o abióticos dentro de un entorno que limitan el crecimiento de una población.






What are Limiting Factors?

300

If the secondary consumers have 120 J of energy, how many does the producer level have?

Si los consumidores secundarios tienen 120 J de energía, ¿cuánta tiene el nivel de productores?

12,000 J

300

When a species separates into 2 groups that are geographically isolated from each other, creating 2 separate species


What is geographic isolation/allopatric speciation?

300

What is stabilizing selection?

A change in a species population distribution where traits towards the average are favored, and extreme traits provide a disadvantage.


300

The process that happens in the nucleus where DNA is coded into RNA. 

Transcription

400

When a population grows a lot in a short period of time.

Cuando una población crece mucho en un corto periodo de tiempo.

 


What is exponential growth?


400

Represents the flow of energy in food chains and webs.


Representa el flujo de energía en las cadenas y redes alimentarias.

 

The Arrows

400

A sharp decline in a population's genetic variation due to outside forces or random events such as natural disasters.


What is the bottleneck effect?


400

A change in population distribution of a species where one extreme trait is favored over the average


What is directional selection.

400

What traits do the Ray finned fish have?

vertebrae and bony skeleton

500

When the impact of a limiting factor is influenced by the number of organisms in that area.

Cuando el impacto de un factor limitante se ve influido por la cantidad de organismos presentes en esa área.





 

What is density-dependent?

500

12,454 Joules are in the producer trophic level, how much will be available in the Tertiary level?


Hay 12.454 julios en el nivel trófico de los productores; ¿cuánto habrá disponible en el nivel terciario?

12.454 J

500

A decline in genetic variation when a small group becomes separated from a larger population

What is the founder effect?

500

What is disruptive selection?

A change in population distribution where two extreme traits are favored over the average, often a precursor to speciation. 

500

What is the relationship of photsynthesis and cellular respiration?

They are the opposite of each other. The reactants of one are the products of the other.
