Matching Pairs REVIEW MODLE 3Online version REVIEW OF THE TOPICS 11, 12, 13, 14 AND 15 by Martha Rodriguez 1 2 Decrease or even eliminate the use of pollutants. 3 Document which shows the significant and potential environmental impact that a construction or an activity could produce. 4 5 The presence of one or more pollutants in the environment or any combination of them that causes an ecologic unbalance. 6 Trophic structure 7 Multicellular organisms that obtain their nutrients by ingesting them. 8 Fungi 9 The rate at which consumers convert chemical energy from their food into their own biomass. 10 The velocity in which the material produced by an organism is decomposed into smaller chemical components . 11 12 13 Microscopic unicellular organism that have a cell wall but no nucleus. 14 These resources do not regenerate once they are substracted from nature so they will decrease little by little. 15 Is the variety of life, it includes the different life forms in every organization level in which nature is expressed. 16 Multicellular organisms that obtain their energy and nutrients by photosynthesis. 17 Ecological efficiency 18 Environmental education 19 Energy flow 20 The speed and path taken by all chemical elements, such as carbon, nitrogen, and others . 21 Sustainable development 22 Terrestrial or aquatic areas in which the original environment has not been modified and are representative of the different ecosystems existing in the nation. 23 Protista 24 Overexplotation 25 26 Environmental Impact 27 Is the most influential factor and the one that has a great decisive power towards for caring the environment and its improvement 28 Energy amount accumulated within living beings from an ecosystem. Includes the energy acquired from food and the matter they gather as a population . 29 Biogeochemical cycles 30 Primary productivity Is an extraction of organisms from a population in a greater rate than its reproduction rate. Monera Unicellular organisms that have organelles and nucleus , they can be autotrophs or heterotrophs. Plantae Is the modification of the environment caused by human activity or nature The speed and path taken by the energy through the components of the ecosystem. A process of formation targeted to society in order to encourage the integral perception of the environment to achieve more rational behaviors in favor of social and environmental development. Decomposition rate The way in which organisms are organized within the ecosystem according to the type of food they consume . Protected areas A measure of the rate at which new organic matter is developed through photosynthesis and chemosynthesis in producer organisms . Environmental Impact Assessment A development that satisfy the necessities of the present without compromise the capacity for the future generations to satisfy its own necessities Secondary productivity Multicellular organism that don´t perform photosynthesis. They obtain their nutrients by absorbing substances from decomposing plants or animals. How matter is transferred by chemical, geological and biological means in order to transform it into nutrients, but also to restore, purify and preserve sustainability in ecosystems. Animalia Any form or physical state of matter and energy that it is incorporated into the atmosphere, water, flora, fauna or any natural element, it will modify or alter its composition and natural condition. Biomass Reincorporate the waste materials on the manufacture of new products. Those that regenerate themselves, there is no extinction risk Using again the things that are still in good conditions. Measurement of energy passing through trophic levels. Energy percentage produced by a plant and the amount transferred to another organism . All those resources that even when they are substracted still have the capacity to regenerate or recover in the natural way. Matter flow
