Herbivore
What is
an organism that eats only
plants?
A step-by-step sequence
linking organisms that feed
on each other
What is
a Food Chain?
Non-living factors in the
ecosystem such as
temperature and wind
direction.
What is abiotic?
An organism that eats both
plants and meat.
What is omnivore?
The study of how organisms
interact with each other and
their physical environment.
What is Ecology?
CO2, H2O and N2O
What are
Inorganic Substances?
The largest reservoir of
carbon near
the surface of the Earth.
What is the ocean?
During photosynthesis, this
gas is produced.
What is Oxygen?
These substances always
contain atoms of carbon AND
hydrogen, and often, oxygen
and nitrogen.
What are
Organic Substances?
During this process,
green plants absorb CO2
from the atmosphere and
use it to manufacture plant
fibres, starches and sugars
What is
photosynthesis?
This sampling methods uses
a line is established between
two points.
What is
Transect Sampling?
This sampling method uses a
rectangle, circle or square to
sample a subset of the total
area.
What is
Quadrat Sampling?
A measure of the degree of
acidity or alkalinity.
What is pH?
This sampling method is used
to measure animal
populations but NOT kill the
animal.
What is
Capture and Release?
Sampling all organisms a set
distance from one spot
What is
Point Sampling?
31
What is the number of
Canadian Gray Wolves
released into Yellowstone
National Park in 1995?
The primary food for wolves
in Yellowstone
What is elk?
Many different organisms as
a measure of a healthy
ecosystem.
What is Diversity?
A resource that can be used
continuously without being
completely depleted because
it regenerates itself
What is a
Renewable Resource?
It is
complete annihilation
or
no longer existing
What is Extinction?
Producers (e.g., plants).
What is an organism that can
make its own energy?
A combination
of many food chains
What is a Food Web?
An animal that eats meat.
What is
a Carnivore?
An organism that feeds on
the dead body of other
organisms and, in the
process, releases nutrients
to the soil and water
What is a Decomposer?
A factor in an ecosystem
created by the presence
and roles of living things
What is Biotic Factor?
