Characteristics and Biome Info	CBI #2	Nutrients Cycles	Population and Ecological Relationships	PER #2/ Scientific Method
100 1. Needs energy, 2. DNA, 3. Reproduce, 4. Must Eliminate waste, 5. Move, 6. Homeostasis, 7. habitat What are all of the Characteristics of Life?	100 Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, and Species Name all of the factors used in Taxonomy to determine species (from least to greatest).	100 absorbation and transpiration In the water cycle, what are processes that enables water to be filtered/cleaned?	100 Primary succesion occurs when the area doesn't have enough soil, but secondary succession occurs when an area has soil but is destoryed by disturbance from nature. Explain the difference between a primary succession and a secondary succession.	100 Food supply, parasites, diseases, competition, and predation What are the factors of a desnity-dependent population?
200 cell, tissue, organ, organ system, organism, population, community, ecosystem, biome, biosphere In chronological order, name steps from a Cell – Biosphere	200 There are two parts, first and last name When writting a scientific name, how many parts are there, and what are the parts?	200 What are the sources that store water on Earth? Atmosphere, surface water, groundwater, and oceans What are the sources that store water on Earth?	200 A poineer community is the first colonizers in a successsion. They include mosses, ferns, lichens, and bacteria. What is a Pioneer Community, and what do they contain in a succession?	200 D-D and D-I can be interrelated; an example would be an increase of parasites may cause diseases in the population. Can density-dependent factors and density-independent factors be interrelated? Give an example if they do
300 Taiga/Coniferous Forests, Deserts, Tundra, Tropical Rainforest, Grasslands, Savanna, and Deciduous Forests Name all of the Biomes that exist within our Biosphere.	300 Italics Finish this statement: "The scientific name is always written in _________."	300 peat, oil, natural gas, and coal What are the four fossil fuels that are part of the carbon sink?	300 All of these terms are each a symbiosis What does Mutualism, Parasitism, Commensalism, and Ammensalism have in common?	300 death and emigration Name the two factors that can cause a decrease in population.
400 Desert DesertWhat type of Biome does little to no rainfall, and has low humidity in the evening?	400 No Would it be possible for two species to have the same name?	400 through respiration and combustion Name two ways in which carbon enters the atmosphere.	400 Large amounts of food, longer summer seasons, milder winters If the population of hares and lynxes were to increase, what other factor would they be to influence their population?	400 My independent variable would be the phones If I were to test if phones can blow up near a nuclear power plant, what would be my independent variable(s)?
500 Taiga/ Coniferous Forest Taiga/ Coniferous ForestName the biome where grasses cannot receive the nutrients from the ground being to thin of ice.	500 Because orgainsms can be different, meaning they're part of the same species, but could look different based on certain points of their life cycle. Why would scientists use Latin in taxonomy instead of the modern language?	500 Nitrogen comes from lightining which then goes through nitrogen fixation. It the transforms from N-fixing bacteria into Ammonia and other n- containing compoundsin soil. Next, it goes through nitrification that turns it into nitrates, and even further nit Describe the process of the Nitrogen Cycle.	500 Distribution is how the organisms are arranged about in an ecosystem; density is the number of individuals per unit area. What is the difference between population distribution and population density?	500 My constants would be the time, the types phones, and a nuclear power plant. There is not control group. What would be the constants, and is there a control group?
