100
Define abiotic and provide an example
What is Nonliving + example
100
Does this little fella represent semelparity or iteroparity - explain
What is semelparity because jumping spiders have 1 major repro event with many offspring at the end of their life
100
Example of density independent interaction
What is a natural disaster
100
Name of a parasite that lives outside of a host
ectoparisite
100
Define "cheating" with an example
looks like another organism to benefit
IE orchids and pollination
200
Define Community + provide an example
What is interacting populations/ species - only on a biotic level
200
What is the survivorship curve of this animal - explain
What is type 1 because most survive through the end of their lifespan
200
Differentiate between batesian and mulliarian mimicry
Batesian - looks like a dangerous species
Mulliarian - reinforces
200
define lentic with an example
what standing freshwater
ex: pond, lake, wetland
200
Term for when early colonizers change environment for later species to thrive
what is facilitation
300
Explain how water and temperature typically influence the environment
What is more water and/or high temp. = more life
300
Identify the 3 main patterns of dispersion observed in nature & ID which is most common
What is :
Random
Even
Clumped is most common
300
Which 2 density dependent interactions have the same symbols (+,-,0). And what are their symbols
what is pred. and parasit.
300
explain the diff between J and s curve pop figures
J - exp. no carrying capac
K- log. has carrying capac
300
What does the age structure figure look like in a LDC and explain
What is a pyramid shape
