100 The two main factors affecting population growth are the birth rate and death rate What are the main factors that affect the growth of a population?	100 rocks, soil nutrients, water Name three abiotic factor	100 false If one thing changes in an ecosystem nothing else would change true or false?	100 an organism capable of synthesizing its own food What's autotroph?	100 Eats plants and other animals for energy A consumer?
200 Mutualism Which of the following describes a relationship in which both organisms depend on each other and both benefit?	200 for shelter or as a surface to grow on How do organism and populations depend on abiotic factors such as rock or sand?	200 false A population is defined as a group of organisms of two species that interbreed and live in the same place at the same time	200 competition is the struggle between two organisms for the same resources within an environment Competition	200 the producers Which level gets the least energy in the energy pyramid?
300 it may lead to the adaptation of a population as a whole Which is true of competition between organisms of the same species?	300 sunlight, space, water, and soil nutrients What abiotic factors do plants compete for?	300 true A species niche included how species uses and affects its kingdom	300 Food web - The pattern of overlapping food chains in an ecosystem.One of three ways in which energy moves through an ecosystem. A model of feeding relationships Food web	300 The direction of energy flow In a food web or chain what do the arrows show?
400 black walnut trees release a chemical into the soil that prevents other types of plants from growing Which of the following is an example of competition between populations?	400 B) Coral reef organisms carry out photosynthesis using the sunlight that passes through the clear water above. Which describes a population depending on an abiotic factor? A) bean plant does not grow well because it is planted where there are many weedy plants. B) Coral reef organisms carry out photosynthesis using the sunlight that passes through the clear water above. C) Squirrels eat eggs from a bird's nest. D) A hawk preys on a mouse.	400 true An organism's niche includes the way the organism gets what it needs to survive and reproduce.	400 . Energy pyramid - A diagram that shows the amount of energy that moves from one feeding level to another in a food web. One of three ways in which energy moves through an ecosystem. As you move upward, from level to level, in an energy pyramid, energy decreases. The greatest amount of energy in an ecosystem is available to producers Energy Pyramaid	400 Herbivore scavenger omnivore carnivore Tell me of consumers that's in a energy pyramid
500 abiotic factors What is the term for the physical components of an environment, such as wind, temperature, and soil?	500 d. its number of chromosomes Which of the following would not be included in a description of an organism’s niche? a. its trophic level b. the humidity and temperature it prefers c. when it reproduces d. its number of chromosomes	500 false Predators can limit the size of populations by weakening their hosts, resulting in disease or death.	500 Mutualism is a mutually beneficial relationship in which both organisms benefit. Commensalism relationship between organisms where one organism benefits from the association while not harming the other. Parasitism is a type of symbiotic relationship in which one organism benefits at the expense of another 3 symbiotic relationships with definition	500 EX: Producer-plants Consumers- herbivore:squirrel Omnivore: raccoon Carnivore:foxes Scavenger:Eagles Decomposer- earthworm List the levels of a energy pyramid and give examples of each like food chain.
