Otters are important to kelp forests along the northwestern coast of the United States because they feed on sea urchins and control their population. Sea urchins feed on the kelp, and if they overpopulate, they can wipe out whole kelp forests. This is because the kelp can no longer anchor itself and simply float away. In this way, otters not only regulate the sea urchin population, but they also influence the kelp forest. Which statement best describes the role of the otter?
The otter is an invasive species because they move into a new area and compete with native species, therefore harming the balance of the ecosystem.
The otter is a keystone species because they move into a new area and compete with native species, therefore harming the balance of the ecosystem.
The otter is an invasive species because if they are removed from the ecosystem, the food web and ecosystem can collapse.
The otter is a keystone species because if they are removed from the ecosystem, the food web and ecosystem can collapse.
Nonnative zebra mussels were first found in a lake near Detroit in 1988. By 1989, it had colonized all Great Lakes waterways. Which scenario is most likely true regarding the introduction of this species?
Native fish naturally ate zebra mussels.
The higher biodiversity lead to healthier lakes.
Native mussels were outcompeted by Nonnative mussels for food and other resources.
Native mussel populations were growing rapidly.
Which of the following best explains the length of primary and secondary succession?
Primary succession is shorter than secondary succession because primary succession begins with soil left behind after the disaster.
Primary succession takes longer than secondary succession because primary succession begins from scratch.
Primary and secondary succession take the same amount of time.
Secondary succession takes longer than primary succession because secondary succession begins with no soil left after the disaster.
Intraspecific competition is when _____________________
2 different species complete for resources
2 of the same species complete for resources
both species benefit in the relationship
none of the above are correct

soil
Primary succession may occur________________________.
on an abandoned farm field

. Which of the following is an example of primary succession?
A.lichens growing on rocks following a volcanic eruption
B.grasses growing after a forest fire
C.oak trees replacing pine trees in a forest
D. non-native species introduced into a climax community
Which of the following describes how an abiotic factor can impact the population dynamics in an ecosystem?
A. A parasite that invades a host can reproduce and cause a decline in the host species population.
B. Organisms that compete for the same resources will keep each other from overpopulating.
C. Predators will prevent herbivores from depleting the plants and other resources in an ecosystem.
D. Seasonal variations in temperature can cause some of the individuals in a population to die.
How is primary succession different from secondary succession?
Primary succession starts with soil.
Secondary succession start with bare rock.
Primary succession starts with bare rock, with lichens and moss.
Fire is an example of primary succession.
A volcano in a mountainous, wooded region erupts, spewing tons of ash and destroying the forested area around the volcano. If the volcano remains dormant during
the next 1000 years, what will probably happen?
The area will be repopulated by trees, eventually becoming a
forest again.
The mountains will erode and remain without life.
The area will remain unchanged, covered by volcanic ash.
The area will turn into a completely different habitat, such as
desert of plains.

Fireflies emit light. The production of light by an organism is called bioluminescence. To generate visible light, cells in a firefly’s tail produce thousands of luciferase enzymes. Luciferase binds to a chemical called luciferin. Once bound, the luciferase enzyme speeds up a chemical reaction that combines an oxygen molecule and luciferin to produce oxyluciferin. This reaction requires energy and releases light. Which of the following best describes how the luciferase enzyme speeds up the chemical reaction?
Luciferase increases the amount of time the light is visible.
Luciferase decreases the amount of energy required for the reaction to start.
Luciferase increases the number of sites on luciferin that must bind to oxygen.
Luciferase decreases the temperature of the environment inside the body of the firefly.
