Both primary and secondary succession begin with pioneer species that
use up all the existing resources and prevent establishment of non-native organisms
modify the area and allow larger and more complex organisms to appear
change the area and make it safer from predatory organisms
invade the area so that new organisms cannot be established
Frederick is studying how ecological succession will change a freshly-plowed piece of land. Which data table represents what Frederick is most likely to record about the plant life in each stage of ecological succession?
The picture shows where oranges are grown in the United States. Oranges require a very long growing season with mild to hot weather.What is the most likely reason many of the oranges are grown in California?
There are more organisms that eat oranges in California than in any other states.
California has a climate that creates a good environment for growing oranges.
Oranges will only grow in states on the coast with environments near water.
Oranges will only grow in sandy soil that few of the other states have.
When an ecosystem contains many different species, there are usually a high number of links in its food web. How does this affect the sustainability of the ecosystem?
Typically, if one link in the food web is removed, the ecosystem will no longer exist.
Typically, if one link in the food web is added, the ecosystem will destabilize.
Typically, if one link in the food web is removed, the ecosystem will remain stable.
Typically, if one link in the food web is added, the ecosystem will change its location.
An ecosystem's sustainability is most dependent on?
warm temperatures.
the amount of water there.
having a large number of a single plant species.
the number and variety of organisms that live there.
Which ecosystem would most likely survive if the grasses were destroyed by a plant virus?
Ecosystem 2, because there are not many predators.
Ecosystem 2, because the grasses could grow back quickly.
Ecosystem 1, because there is a variety of producers that support the ecosystem
Ecosystem 1, because there are fewer primary consumers.

Energy is converted to mass when the candle is burned.
Smoke particles have more mass than molecules of candle wax.
Kinetic energy is converted to potential energy when the candle is burned.

Brian's family has a compost pile at home. They put all the weeds they pull up from the garden in it as well as any vegetable waste they gather from the kitchen. If they keep it moist, all this vegetation will eventually turn into organic soil by the chemical process of decay. Since decay involves a variety of chemical reactions, how might temperature affect the rate at which the compost turns into soil?
Temperatures near freezing would make it speed up.
It would happen faster at warmer air temperatures.
Changing temperatures would not affect the chemical reactions.
Warm summer air temperatures would make it slow down.
Which number has the particles moving the fastest?
1
2
5
4
3
