Ecology Quiz

What is the main aim of ecology?

• To understand the distribution of biotic and abiotic factors

• To analyze the population density

• To study the behavior of individual organisms

• To explore the molecular level interactions

Which of the following is an example of a biotic component?

• Soil

• Sunlight

• Bacteria

• Air

What does population ecology study?

• The behavior and morphology of individual organisms

• The interactions among earth's ecosystems

• The exchange of energy and materials in ecosystems

• The factors that impact the genetic composition and size of populations

What is the study of organismal ecology focused on?

• The distribution and density of populations

• The interactions among different species in a community

• The conservation of energy resources

• The production of proteins and their effects on the environment

What is the importance of ecology in resource allocation?

• It encourages harmonious living within species

• It helps in understanding the impact of human actions on the environment

• It prevents unnecessary wastage of energy resources

• It leads to the over-exploitation of energy resources

Which type of ecology deals with the study of living and non-living components and their relationship with the environment?

• Ecosystem Ecology

What is the study of molecular ecology focused on?

• The behavior and morphology of individual organisms

• The exchange of energy and materials in ecosystems

• The interactions among different species in a community

• The production of proteins and their effects on the environment

What does community ecology study?

• The factors that impact the genetic composition and size of populations

• The interactions among earth's ecosystems

• The modification of community structure by interactions among living organisms

• The exchange of energy and materials in ecosystems

Which of the following is an example of an abiotic component?

• Sunlight

What is the study of global ecology focused on?

• The exchange of energy and materials in ecosystems

• The entire ecosystem including living and non-living components

• How community structure is modified by interactions among living organisms

• The interactions among earth's ecosystems, land, atmosphere and oceans
