Snakes

Which graph depicts exponential growth of a population?

Graph A

Graph D

Graph B

Graph C

Order the succession patterns of this ecosystem from primary succession to its climax community.

3, 1, 4, 2

4, 3, 2, 1

1, 3, 2, 4

3, 2, 4, 1

The graph above is the carrying capacity of a specific organism in an ecosystem over time. What is meant by the dotted line K?

K is the greatest number of organisms this ecosystem can support

K is the smallest number of organisms this ecosystem can support

K is the average number of organisms this ecosystem can support

K is the number of predator and prey relationships in this ecosystem

Human activity changes the ecosystems of Virginia. Decreasing the size of which section of pie would most likely cause extinction?

Residential

Commercial

Forests

Agriculture

Which of the following is a conclusion that can be drawn from the evidence in the graph?

Wolves were reintroduced to this location in 1970.

Moose populations declined in 1993 due to increased predation by wolves.

Moose and wolves belong to the same population because they interact with each other in this ecosystem.

Wolf populations declined in 1980 due to decreased available food sources.

As humans continue to burn coal for power production, we alter the amount of carbon in the atmosphere. Which part of the carbon cycle is reflected in electricity production by burning coal?

Photosynthesis

Combustion

Respiration

Decomposition

A forest fire has occurred that has destroyed trees and plant life. This ecosystem is exhibiting which stage of succession, after it has been recolonized by plants such as grasses?

Secondary succession

Primary succession

Climax community

Tertiary succession

Deforestation would contribute directly to which imbalance of matter, disrupting the carbon cycle?

An increase in carbon released by trees

An increase in carbon released by animals

A decrease in carbon taken in by animals

A decrease in carbon taken in by trees

Eutrophication occurs when there is an excessive amount of nitrogen in a waterway, causing an algae bloom that is devastating to the living organisms of the water. Which human activity contributes to eutrophication?

Respiration

Denitrification

Assimilation

Fertilizer run-off

You can integrate the game into an LMS compatible with LTI 1.1 or LTI 1.3 such as Canvas, Moodle, or Blackboard. This way, the scores will be automatically saved into the platform’s gradebook.
