The study of the interactions of organisms and
their environments is also known as this.

What is ecology?
4
In this picture the eagle is an example of this
type of factor, while the water is an example of
this other type of factor.
5
What is a biotic factor and an abiotic factor,
respectively?
6
The five levels of biological organization in
ecology in order from largest to smallest are
known as these.
7

• What are
• Biosphere
• Ecosystem
• Community
• Population
• Organism?

8
This type of symbiosis occurs when one organism
benefits and the other is neither harmed nor
benefitted.
9
What is commensalism?
10
Water is lost to the abiotic parts of the
biosphere from the biotic parts by the process
known as this.
11
What is transpiration?
12
This organism is the predator and this organism
is the prey.
13
What is an owl is the predator and the vole is
the prey?
14
This diagram is also called this.
15
What is a food web?
16
This organism is a producer.
17
What is grass?
18
The third order consumer in this picture is this
color.
19
What is gray?
20
The third trophic level in this picture is this
color.
21
What is brown?
22
A large group of ecosystems that share the same
type of climax community is also known as this
23
What is a biome?
24
This graph illustrates this type of growth.
25
What is exponential?
26
This biome is characterized by a lack of trees
and very cold temperatures throughout much of the
year.
27
What is the tundra?
28
This biome is known to have frequent fires.
29
What is the chaparral?
30
The study of human population size is known as
this.
31
What is demography?
32
When the last of a species dies the species is
said to be this.
33
What is extinct?
34
The largest threat to biodiversity is this.
35
What is habitat loss?
36
Pollution is also known as this.
37
What is habitat degradation?
38
Protected strips of land that allow migration of
species from one wilderness area to another are
known as this.
39
What are habitat corridors?
40
The average American produces this much solid
waste every day.
41
What is 1.8 kilograms?
42
Any biotic or abiotic factor that limits an
organisms ability to survive is known as this.
43
What is a limiting factor?
44
Species in this area will be replaced by this
type of succession.
45
What is secondary?
46
This aquatic ecosystem has no light.
47
What are vent communities?
48
The passage of a highway through a wilderness
area causes this.
49
What is habitat fragmentation?
50
DAILY DOUBLE
51
The replacement of of one community by another as
environmental conditions change.
52
What is succession?
