What is the difference between the biotic and abiotic factors?

Biotic factors are living things and abiotic factors are nonliving things.

Biotic factors are nonliving things and abiotic factors are living things.

Which is an example of a biotic factor in the environment?

Carnivores that consume other animals

Amount of helium gas in the air

Which of the following shows an abiotic factor interacting with a biotic factor in the environment?

Low light intensity affects the growth of forest pine trees.

Lamprey eels survive by attaching themselves to trout.

Water temperature affects its oxygen level.

Gypsy moth caterpillars eat the leaves of apple trees.

Which is an example of a seasonal change to a biotic factor?

Temperatures get cooler in the fall

Hours of sunlight increase in the summer

Rainfall increases in the spring

Which of these is a biotic factor in a river ecosystem?

The types of microogranisms that live in the river water

the amount of soil and other particles carried by the river

the speed at which the river water flows toward the ocean

the amount of rain that flows off the land and into the river.

What is an example of an area that is likely to undergo primary succession?

Glaciers melt and leave exposed rock

Plants die from drought and decompose

Land is bulldozed and soil remains

What is the main difference between primary and secondary ecological succession?

Primary begins WITHOUT soil; Secondary begins WITH soil

Primary is the first state and secondary is the second stage

Primary builds plant community; secondary builds animal community

Primary begins WITH soil; Secondary begins WITHOUT soil

What is an example of a disturbance that could bring about secondary succession?

Humans cut down many trees in a small region.

A volcanic eruption covers an area in lava.

Which is faster: Primary or Secondary Succession?

Both Take The Same Amount of Time

How does climate change impact the biodiversity of an ecosystem?

Climate change can lead to habitat loss, changes in temperature and precipitation patterns, and increased frequency of extreme weather events, all of which can directly impact the biodiversity of an ecosystem.

Climate change only affects human populations

Biodiversity increases with climate change

Climate change has no impact on biodiversity

How does climate change affect the migration patterns of species?

Climate change can alter the temperature and precipitation patterns, which can directly impact the habitats and food sources of species, leading to changes in their migration patterns.

Climate change has no impact on the migration patterns of species

Migration patterns of species are not influenced by temperature and precipitation changes

Species are not affected by climate change

What are the consequences of climate change on species distribution?

No impact on species distribution

In what ways does climate change influence ecosystem services?

By altering temperature and precipitation patterns, leading to changes in species distribution, habitat loss, and disruption of ecological processes.

By reducing the impact of invasive species on ecosystem services

By promoting the growth of diverse and healthy ecosystems

By increasing the availability of resources for ecosystem services

Describe the impact of climate change on the provision of ecosystem services.

Climate change can alter the distribution and abundance of species, disrupt ecological processes, and reduce the ability of ecosystems to provide essential services.

Climate change has no impact on ecosystem services

Ecosystem services will improve as a result of climate change

Climate change only affects a few species and has no overall impact on ecosystems

Which of the following is the best conclusion that can be made from this graph?

atmospheric carbon dioxide levels have increased steadily since 1960

atmospheric carbon dioxide levels have been decreasing since 1960

Hawaii has a lot of carbon dioxide

humans have been working hard to decrease carbon dioxide levels

The main human activity that releases greenhouse gases is

using public transportation and there by reduce the affects of greenhouse gases.

The correct order of stages in the primary succession of volcanic island environment is illustrated by

Volcanic rock- Lichen-Mosses-Sea grasses

Shrubs-Mosses-Coconut trees-Sea grasses

Volcanic rock-Shrubs-Coconut trees- Sea grasses

Volcanic rock-Sea grasses-Coconut trees- Shrubs

Humans are releasing greenhouse gases into the atmosphere faster than they can be removed by natural processes. This has resulted in

more species thriving in their new climates

a decrease in sales of winter coats

Ecosystems consist of interactions between:

d) Both living and non-living components

Which of the following best describes the tilt of the earth when it is summer in the southern hemisphere?

The northern hemisphere is tilted away from the sun

The northern hemisphere is tilted toward the sun

The norther hemisphere is tilted neither toward or away from the sun

Why are you talking about the northern hemisphere when you asked about the southern hemisphere?

Why does the area around the equator stay the same temperature all year?

The equator always receives direct sunlight.

The equator rotates slower than the poles.

The equator remains the same distance from the sun.
