This makes its own food 

What is a producer?

100

What are the two dry biomes? One is dry and hot containing plants like cacti, the other is frigid and dry and has permafrost and no trees 

What are the desert and tundra? 

100

What happens if you take a keystone out of an arch? 

It crumbles.

100

What is this called? 

What is a food chain? 

100

What is this an example of? 

Food web

200
This is an animal that gets its energy by eating something. 

What is a consumer? 

200

These 2 rainy biomes contain tall trees, while one is more mild in temperature with animals like deer and salmon, the other is very warm including animals like monkeys and toucans. 

What are the temperate rainforest and tropical rainforests? 

200

What is the definition of keystone species? 

An organism that the ecosystem depends on

200

Most producers get their energy from where? 

the sun (some from chemical vents of the ocean)  

200

What is more complex and accurate: a food web or a food chain? Why? 

Food web: shows more organisms, expresses more energy transfer, shows how organisms are interrelated,

300

This type of organism gets energy by breaking down dead orgnisms. 

What is a decomposer? 

300

This biome is found all over the world and has other names like grassland and prairie. 

What is savanna? (ooh na na) 

300

This animal is a keystone species because it...

- builds dams that affect the flow of rivers

- cuts down trees it chops down

- flooded trees provide housing for bird nests

What keystone species is this? 

What is a beaver?

300

The most energy in an ecosystem is with what group? ( producers, primary consumers, secondary consumers, tertiary consumers, decomposers) 

Producers 

300

What do the arrows in a food chain or food web represent? 

Direction of energy flow

400

Give an example of a producer, consumer, and decomposer. 

Producer- tree, flower, grass

Consumer- buffalo, cow, bird, shark

Decomposer- worm, beetle, mushroom

400

This mountain biome has cold temperatures, but not as cold as the tundra. 

What is taiga? 

400

What is an example of a keystone species? 

Wolf, beaver, starfish

400

What do the arrows in a food chain or web represent? 

Direction of energy flow

400

Give one example of an organism at each level of the energy pyramid 

Producer- plant

primary consumer- herbivore or omnivore

Secondary consumer- omnivore or carnivore

Tertiary consumer- omnivore or carnivore

500
What is the process where an organism makes its own food using chemicals? 

Chemosynthesis 

500

This biome is prone to fires and has plants that can grow from the nutrients deposited by the ash of fires. 

What is chaparral?

500
What are 3 ways a wolf affects the ecosystem? 

- changes deer pop

- deer stop grazing in valleys

- vegetation grows back 

- rivers change direction

- more river wildlife 

500

A is a primary producer a herbivore or carnivore? 

Herbivore
