Ignore this question.

Lol. 


100

This value is the maximum number of a population that can be sustained in a community.

Carrying capacity

100

All the different species within a community and the relative abundance of those species.

Species Diversity

100

The patterns of the world biomes’ climate are in relation to these factors.

Temperature and precipitation

100

long cold, dark, harsh winters and short summers.

Arctic Tundra

200

These trigger Fixed Action Patterns (FAPs), which is a signal from the environment.

Sign Stimulus

200

The type of abiotic factor where the intensity of its affect don’t increase when the population density increases.

Density independent factor

200

Communities develop through succession, which occurs after a disturbance in the community. All species carry out succession, but this group of organisms are defined as those that are the first producers to inhabit a community after a disturbance and start secondary succession.

Pioneer species

200

The coastal side of the mountain that receives more rainfall than the other side.

Winward side

200

Adaptations to conditions in this terrestrial ecosystem include thick epidermal layers, water storing succulent stems and leaves, and the ability to set seeds quickly in the seeds.

Desert

300

This type of learning enables an individual to recognize its own species, find an appropriate mate, and occurs during a certain time period.

Imprinting

300

These are the three distribution patterns found within an ecosystem.

Uniform, clumped, and random.

300

This symbiotic relationship occurs in a community when an organism is inhabited by a host. This type of symbiosis results in one organism being harmed but not killed, and one organism being benefited.

Parasitism

300

This land-based biome is home to squirrels, rabbits, and many small herbivores. There are four seasons with cold winters and hot summers.

Temperate deciduous forest

300

This terrestrial biome is characterized by being warm all year round with lots of rainfall, this biome has the highest level of biodiversity.

Tropical rainforest

400

This causes ant societies to have only the queen reproduce, and all other female ants be sterile, benefiting the reproductive success of the queen.

Altruism

400

This survivorship curve is most likely seen in organisms who exhibit r-selected traits.

Type III

400

This states that no two species can indefinitely occupy the same niche at the same time.

The competitive exclusion principle.

400

Oligotrophic lakes are poor in nutrients and very unproductive. However, the water in these lakes can become nutrient rich though this process.

Eutrophication

400

These are plants that grow on other plants, but have roots of their own which absorbs moisture and minerals

Epiphytes

500

This form of associative learning where the modifying of a behavior is paired with two different stimuli creates a bond between the events.

Classical conditioning

500

In this reproductive pattern, the organism only has one reproductive event in its lifetime (which is often short).

Semelparity

500

This refers to the allocation of resources between multiple species which leads to less competition for those resources, like when one species hunts at night and the other during the day

Resource partitioning.

500

On the interior side of the mountain or leeward side, the air descends, absorbs moisture from the ground, produces dry air and clear weather, and it tends to be much drier than the windward side.

Rain shadow

500

This biotechnological process is used to help protect endangered species, and has been used in court cases to convict people of crimes dealing with endangered species.
